The Governor has declared a state of emergency here in Oregon, due to flooding. They are calling this a 100 Year Flood. Many in our community are in real trouble. This picture was taken just a couple of miles from our house.

Newt and I spent a couple of hours volunteering at a sandbagging station yesterday and may try to get back out today. Other than that all we can do it pray.

We may have to move.
What a mess! I’m glad you guys are high and dry.
SLUG slime?!?! Ewww!
