Even our neighbours thought they had enough of the heat and wanted to be in the shade of our backyard until the cat spooked them.

I found this cool sign on Temu that I am going to order. It's 8X10 inches in size.

Looking west at the Lewis & Clark Bridge that connects Oregon & Washington State over the mighty Columbia River tonight.

Lore has it that, when Lewis and Clark laid eyes on the Pacific Ocean after their long trek across the country, their first words were, "Long time ... no sea"

You're funny John! I appreciated your humor.

Actually it's quite interesting where they landed for their first view, it's at Cape Disappointment, which is the third pic down in the link. It's still the Cape but the picture is of what is now called Waikiki Beach. Because of a dike built there it separates the ocean and the river otherwise they would blend. And you really DO NOT want to be in that water! It's not called one of the top deadliest river 'bars' for nuthin'. We have hundreds of documented shipwrecks out there. (ahhh ressurection will be an education!) Actually this was a history lesson for me as I thought they arrived at Dismal Nitch first. Alas no, but they did spend a dismal winter there.

I've seen pictures of the mighty Columbia River frozen solid that people were skating across it! I remember in the 70's having so much snow in Astoria that we feared our roof would collapse. Gradually our winters have become almost balmy.

Sigh, ok back to the present....☺️

A tug heads west on the Columbia River past Rainier, Oregon (my side) and Longview, Washington across the river. I enjoy the big ships that go by, but the tugs are my favorite.

Found this sleeping bag whilst surfing the www.

Just $500.00 and you can camp, and enjoy a near biblical experience, at the same time. 🤣

Eating cold-cuts isn't good for us (all the additives-ugh!) but you know a turkey and swiss sandwich with tomato and crispy lettuce and a side of corn chips is hard to pass on. Or smoked turkey, green beans and mashed potatoes with turkey gravy.... (drool )So a brother here who loves to smoke.....well anything, smoked a 3.5 pound bone-in turkey breast  for me. Isn't he beautiful? Imna have some good dinners for a while.

Prompt: A stylish woman walks down a Tokyo street filled with warm glowing neon and animated city signage. She wears a black leather jacket, a long red dress, and black boots, and carries a black purse. She wears sunglasses and red lipstick. She walks confidently and casually. The street is damp and reflective, creating a mirror effect of the colorful lights. Many pedestrians walk about.

[Friends just call me Ross]

That is incredible!  The lights are so reflective she wears her "sunglasses at night".

 

Great.  Now I'm gonna be singing that song all day.🤣
