Burrowing In......

busy weekend! My friend from work, Photo Buddy, and I got up at 1:45am and drove 2.25 hours to Mt. St. Helens to get photos of Sunrise at the site. Once we finished that, we went to the car and slept for about 4 hours to wait for the visitors center to open. It was one hour drive to the nearest restroom. Luckily the ranger let us use the facilities an hour or so prior to opening. Cool guy!

We stopped at another center (can't for the life of me recall the name), but it was informative and the lady ranger there was in a social mood. After we left the National Monument, we headed to Lucia Falls for a spell. It was 7pm before I dropped Photo Buddy off and was able to mentally crash.

slept good last night...don't think I moved at all. But with a wind burnt face, it's time to move again. this time I am headed to a living farm for some photos.

Spent some of the morning at Fort Vancouver. It's less than a mile from my new apartment. I cannot wait to get my SLR, so I decided to go enjoy my Sony Cyber Shot.

While walking around the outside of the post complex, the maintenance guy Fred invited me into the Red Cross Building. Then he gave me a map of the base to show me which of the building are open to the public.

Just when I think I have figured out how to upload the photos to my blog.....

Yesterday was a very sad day in Clackamas, OR. A single gunman entered the mall with 10000 Christmas shoppers and sales associates. He opened fire and set off over 60 rounds of assault rounds.

Sadly, he killed two and wounded a 15 year old young woman..with a chest wound. Then he turned the gun on himself.

This is a season of perpetual hope. I am praying that our community will unite in these sad times and rekindle the peace that all are entitl...

Wednesday, while taking a few things to storage, I happened upon an accident involving a car and a wheelchair scooter. The scooter was Laing on it's side and holding the right front tire off the ground. The lady seemed ok, save a cut on the hand and a bruise on the leg.Two hours later (exactly), while enroute to storage with another load, I was rear ended. The pickup bumper hit the spare tire that my Sportage has on a gate at the rear of my car. The tire & gate push...

The flippers are starting to get quite the workout. I have joined a fitness club and begun stopping in after work.of course, swimming is my poison of choice. It is bringing back a lot of childhood memories. My "perfume" has returned. chlorine is everywhere. I love it!!I cannot wait to get back to the point where I can begin to swim laps like I did when I was back on the swim team. But that will be awhile.LBF
