Moved Multiple times within the 800 Block of Hood River Oregon to it's last residence, a striking farmhome with a view of the Columbia River. Rice Cooker will be missed, and is survived by It's owner, Maui and Janellen Meyer.

Spring of 2008

Slightly turbulent times these days. Bob Kramer passed away in an awful accident. I had actually seen him earlier that day in the coffee shop. Half the valley came out for his service, and the other half would have, but someone had to keep the lights on.......

Nathaniel registered for kindergarten this week, that kid sure is growing up. We are faced with a small problem in that he's been playing an online game that has him completing the kindergarten testing standards already......

Julia, growing, Emma's cute.....all in all, more of the great stuff that makes Hood River amazing. We've been getting rid of lots of extra stuff and are settling down into being here more (not that we went too far afield, ever.) but things are simplifying well. I signed up to be a delgate to the DNC from Oregon...could be a front row seat to history.....
