  • Social Media Gurus

    Saw this on couch surfing ori's site http://www.couchsurfingori.com and then a few other places –

    It is so funny – especially if you are on Twitter and see profiles that announce "I am a social media expert" or "social media guru."

     

     

    Your take on these "experts?"  Please comment..Thank you….

  • Windy River

    On a very cold windy December 26th, I went out to catch the colors and movement of the Columbia River flowing through what I call my backyard.

    You can hear the wind, wind chimes and the clanging of moving parts of many sailboats near and far.

    Enjoy!

     

     

  • A most rare December day

    What is so rare as a day in June?

    A dry sunny day for December 1 in Portland Oregon!!

    Rare too that I could be out in the open with my camera!

    So rare that I had to memorialize it with a panoramic sweep from my upper deck! 

    49 degrees F but it felt GOOD!

     

    sunny December day PDX  WOW!!

    Don't feel jealous – it will rain again soon enough….

  • The PEX Plumbing Project

    Last winter my pipes froze and burst :/ and I did not have water to all of my house til this Fall when we finally figured out the best way to re-do the plumbing for the entire house – and it's a 2-part house to boot.

    The answer was to have it all inside [Yea for indoor plumbing ] and not under the floor where it had been and was only reachable by pulling up the floor.  Remember – I float on a river.  

    The solution was PEX plumbing and here is Jesse and the PEX plumbing project.  The connection between the two parts is outside but VERY well insulated… and besides PEX is not going to burst.

     

     

     

    So glad this stuff exists.
