Degrees of Beautiful
This time of year the gardens around Waldport are different degrees of beautiful. I think we ought to thank the gardeners who’ve provided us with the beautiful sights. There are several kinds of gardens but the ones I’m talking about are those that are individual home ones for beauty possibly growing some small produce like…
The Most Powerful Sense
Touch, taste, sight, sound and smell are the senses humans have. I’m pretty sure animals have them too, but I’m dealing with we humans today!

The Drought
While the Pacific Northwest, including Oregon, is in a mini drought due to no rain, Television is in a drought thanks to the season this time of year. The lack of rain has to do with atmosphere changes and with luck we will get enough rain to fix the problem. However, the Television drought totally…
