The Old Home Town


Took us 9 days to get to our old HOME TOWN!...Salem, Orygun....the last leg via a HWY we have never traveresed...before...I-5 was at a stand still, so we skipped on over to Albany and tried another route...Hwy 20...which paralleled the Willamette River...as we met up at 'reunion' of sorts at a local pizzeria...nobody there knew of that road, as they all were locals since childhood...ah, Greg Nolz did...

Walery's in lieu of Padingtons who was closed to inhouse dining...weird...but the pizza was great!...a number of peops joined us and we had fun fun fun...you don't get pizza like this in San Diego...and kudos to our hosts, the Snookis, who are generous enough to board us for a few days...as we pack in as much as we can while here...like a look see of all of our old homes...

Also, a real jolt...watching the news via the pixels...KGW 8...the SAME newspeople as ever...so used to that type moving on after a few years...apparently, not in these neck of the woods...the 1 thing not, is the lack of newspaper...local...the Statesman Journal is now done in PDX...too bad...day old news does NOT make it...

Hey, also on our trip here...we went thru Florence...man, there are some terrific views...Orygun is indeed beautiful...Boss Lady kept asking, 'so you want to move back, don't you'...ha ha...just stating the facts, maam....

The Olympics...it is covered way more up here...why is that?...I dunno...

The mighty Pads did get game 4 vs the Rockies...hmmm...need to get on a roll, Friars...if we are gonna catch the Giants...

He is alive and kicking...

Top of the morning, friends...as we embark on a shortish Cosmo trip (6+ hours) up north to see the kids. ..we try to see them every month or two....whatever works for us, and them...school has just started for them...and Cy has both football and soccer, he is playing...Cas, at 3, is still a wannabe... The distancing of trump with the public, was a bit weird, right?. ..he emerged and was talking the same...his appearance was a bit shaggy...he must have had the flu, or, well, Covid, or something...but, he is NOT DEAD....and still up to his shenanigans...same old...anything to bring up, to divert the people from hearing about the Epstein Files ...he unabashedly, called the whole thing a 'Democratic Hoax'... Hmmm...as 6 of the Survivors of it...(the Epstein Case) ...were talking, not only to the House....but, to the public, yesterday...as MTG was front and center with it...which, too, was odd...a fallout from trump?...or, a plant within the group?...no, trump, it is not a hoax.....

The Ignominy

So much for diplomacy ... the absolute embarrassment by the current President of the US...his actions in 'hosting' the Ukranian President Zelensky ... as it turned out, a highly visual representation of bullying by trump...the manners and methodology that he uses on people...aligned with his arse kissers, waiting their turn to take potshots at Zelenksy...all well orchestrated ...it was the ULTIMATE IGNOMINY of our country's 'leader'...unfortunately, for us, too...as somehow we are connected to that ogre...in reality, we are not... hoping the rest of the World can see that...here are samples of the headlines throughout that depict the sentiment of the slaughter... We are NOT aligned with Putin...WE ARE NOT!...trump is ...which begs a different query...how much longer can this idiocy go on?... I keep asking this...what does Putin have on trump, anyway...it must be a formidable foible... Talk to me, kids... This ploy of the orange...to actually simulate a firing squa...

A Trial, Indeed

The revenge tour is ramping up ...as we gawk at the unchecked moves by trump ...even SCOTUS , the last leg of justice, is wobbling beneath his demands... this country is in disarray ...I wish I could give you better news... The unsightly attack of one of his Icetapo behemoths, on a lady in New York...taking her to the ground...an example of the uncontrolled behavior of that organization...guess that is what you call the group... simply, out of control, with NO LIMITS of force ...sad...and disgusting... The indictment of his former FBI head, James Comey ...for lying (imagine that from a legendary liar, trump) to Congress...this court case is needed for the country...to show the fallacy of the regime that is running rampant all over the land...it needs to be a BIG STAGE! ... A trial, indeed... In data released by trump's own government...the largest groups of detainees...the Icetapo's achievement of rounding up people...are not the ones with ANY CRIMINAL RECORD , but, 'illeg...
