rain pain

in portland it rains, it rains a whole hell of a lot. not the crazy downpour rain, just mellow rain. but last night it poured, it rained all night rally hard, and since fall is just picking up here there are tons of leaves on the ground still. and when the leaves meet the water, they usually clog all the drains so all the streets have a bunch of standing water. i had to get into my car through the pasanger side this morning. its kind of funny actually, there was a anarchist/achivist/clown family that lived down the street from me when i lived in ne portland. whenever it rained hard he would brush debris and leaves and clog the drains on the end of the block. then sit and drink beer while people had to drive around it.

Did you mean archivist or activist? I think it would be really cool if they were an anarchist clown archivist family archiving away.

It was 5 degrees when I got up this morning. There is already 4 feet of snow on rabbit ears pass - sounds like an epic winter on the way. I should be bartending in Steamboat, not destroying young minds. Larry, we will be causing trouble in P-town a week from right now.

Jon told me this morning that it's supposed to be 5 below by this weekend. I think you may be right stevie, an epic winter may be on its way. I hate shoveling.

Gratitude is born in hearts that take time to count up past mercies.
