I'm down Enumclaw way. Started out about freezing this morning about 7:30, warmed up to about 36, then started ice pellets/raining.

Now it's right near freezing again and icing up pretty good.

Good thing I got my 4WD started.

The Fox gal pronounces The Dalles as The Dollies. Oopps.

Bet she looked good doing it, though. Unless it was Rita Cosby.

Now it's back to Freezing Rain.

It's pretty well glazed at the moment, and we had a 55 car pileup this morning on I-205, but overall, it isn't that bad. This time last year it was knee deep with ice on top...

Is this like He77 freezing over?

LOL - you took the words right out of my mouth!

Portland freezes = Nature's way of containing liberals. (wasn't there something about global warming I read somewhre recently.....)

We visited Portland in 2002 for a convention and were approached by the strangest assortment of homeless types I've ever seen, as we were coming out of a fancy steakhouse. This unbathed woman who clearly fell asleep in the hippy years and is just now waking up chastised us for eating beef and how bad cows are for the environment.

Yawn! Let me know when the big H freezes over--that will be news! To hear the Dems, whine, one would think it already has.

The first Portland liberal to speak up and complain about global warming gets put out on a boat to drift the Pacific for the rest of his/her natural life.......

Not to compare with freezing over but we had beautiful fluffy snow most of the day here on Whidbey Island :-)

Here is a satellite weather image of the U.S. . It looks to me like Oregon will be getting the chills for the next two days.

Raleigh Hills: nice neighborhood. You just live in a place between the cusp of rain and snow in deep winter. It's in the penumbra. The splendid sight of fall in your area makes up for everything though. I own a couple of shacks in Tigard and Cedar Hills as extended tentacles of my real estate empire.

Hubby and I went to Portland for an event recently. We went to Powells, as we were told that is the place you "must" go when you are there. (Bookstore). Wow. The lineup of Bush-Bashing books was tremendous and prominently placed. The pro-Bush books were few and on the bottom row. I couldn't help myself, I had to proclaim aloud (so the employees could hear) "Well, there's certainly no liberal bias in THIS store, is there?" They looked annoyed.

"The Dallies". Yep, I did that when I first came here in 1969. I remember reading the paper, which back then we had the Oregon Journal, and there was a story that read: BORING MANY DROWNS. I thought to myself, "what a weird headline." I didn't know it was the name of a town.

In times of ice and snow and mud slides, I am very glad to be a "flatlander", living a few blocks from SE Precinct.
