After this weekend I feel like I need a very large can of spinach to regain my strength (Popeye reference). I had been working out zero days in a row prior to this trip and the current labor has been refreshing and exhausting at the same time. Today I have to get back to mental work which requires me sit on my bum and type a lot. However, I’m working on some interesting stuff that will require some good mental effort.

I’m looking forward to driving up the Columbian Gorge later on this week. I hope to get some good pictures so that I can post them. I’ve been taking a few pictures off and on but I need to crop them and get them ready for ‘online use.’ I love to go to Multnomah falls, and I hope that I’ll get some really nice photographs there. That way I can be yet another multnomah photographer (YAMP).

Abby sure loves being spoiled by her grandparents, Linda dedicated yesterday to sugar. No, not because of the eve of all saints day, but because while Clair and I worked on their new house the females consumed calories and turned their brains off whilst watching moo-vies that they ponied-up for, or in another farm vein, chick flicks.

I’ve got to get used to the time change since I’m an hour off from CO time plus daylight shavings time shaved an hour off of the clock so I’m all disoriented. Anywho, I’ve got to ‘get back to work.’ Fortunately that will require taking no steps and driving no miles, but will require me hitting “CTRL+Tab” on my nifty Firefox browser.
