Is a writer and photographer who lives in rural Oregon. This is an informal blog with no particular purpose other than to give myself something to do with some of the welter of photographs I take each day.

The coast…
A quick, refreshing trip this weekend to the Oregon Coast, where we hiked the long loop trail at Cape Perpetua, watched the waves break in the cloudy gloom and had halibut at Mo’s.

Junk calls from Google?!
I just got a call on my Google Voice phone number from a woman who claimed to be from Google and who started to make what sounded an awful lot like a sales pitch. I told her I wasn’t interested and hung up.
That’s bad enough, but she immediately called back and left a pushy message saying she needed to talk to me about my business listing with Google and she wasn’t soliciting anything.
According to numerous web postings, sales people using the same number have been calling people and offering “enhanced” listings for money.
See the slightly sketchy Google Voice transcription of her message above.
Are you kidding me? Does Google think I’m actually going to deal with a dishonest junk caller?
Tomatoes, at last!
After a long, cold, wet spring — and a sudden hot late summer — our tomato plants finally started producing salad yesterday.

PCT Day 64: Another pair of shoes
Noah’s about half way through the four months he figures it will take him to hike the entire Pacific Crest Trail from Mexico to Canada.
And he’s on his third pair of trail running shoes. The pair shown above is No. 2, which just got him through hundreds of miles of snow and ice in the Sierra.
