Around Town
With a day to wander the streets of Salem. we took full advantage of it...starting with the bloody rain, and ending with some oddly warmish weather...the excursion ranged the 4 corners of this ever expanding city...ie, the Willametter Valley Vineyards (one of our investments) which is filled with more and more warehouses...restaurants...bars...fast food joints...one thing, less number of weed markets...gots to think that are jobs all over this place...very encouraging...
A reminder hitting me right thru the eyes, NO SALES TAX...the price is what it says it is...coo...homeless?...sure, but due to the weather, they are tented up...appeared to be spread out, too...where do they get their food?...today. I may head on down to the outlets...or to Fred Meyers...as we await our departure to Eugene for the Duck game...ah, the reason for moi coming here...7:30 pm start, which is absolutely bogus, man...around 4?...
One more item...the way the local high school football playoff system works, all of the Salem schools made it...weird...the results of last night's games;...disappointing...they all got beat...not sure if I understand the new system...all made it?...odd...
Scheduling of the college games are awkward, too...both OSU and UO have home games today...imagine I-5 will be ugly...the Beavs at 2:30 and the Ducks at 7:30...as they are but 40 minutes apart in location...
Have I mentioned the price of petrol?...buck plus cheaper...and I ran into people that I knew from way back...that was cool...really cool...that remembered me...met up with the Martins, too...which was fab...knowing all along, that I am at the mercy of the Snooki's...who are so kind to board and run me around...
OK...this too...the last time I was here...there were a gaggle of trump flags dotting the area...gone...poof...this is a good thing...you Salemites are to be commended...ya'll came to your senses...
Well, kids you have a great Saturday...and…GO DUCKS!
