    Driving through the parking lot had just finished grocery shopping.

    Just announced on the news the divers and rescue people found the child's body. Man that sucks.

    Flood watch and warnings posted in all parts of western Oregon along with slides. Gotta love winter.

    They put 4 large counties in Western Oregon on the disaster list tonight from sever flooding. They have closed some ski lifts, to much snow. :rolleyes:

    Was at the HD dealership today and the owner asked me if I had that new bike high and dry. :)

    Yea, I spoke to soon. I think it was a 5 min. pause. I had an afternoon inspection and man I got soaked. Just great for the head cold. It absolutely poured on me.
    I-5 60 miles north of me is closed in both direction from the weather. :angry:

    70* here as well, sun shining at the moment but pretty cloudy with chance of rain. Think I'll make a long enough ride to heat up for a oil change, been meaning to do it and finally have the time today.:D
