Ahh Hell Sammy...1/2 of Oregon is transplanted Californians these days....or even further South.
That's not counting the left wing carpetbagger politicians who arrived from the East Coast a few decades ago. We were"Kalifornicated" completely less than a decade after former Governor Tom McCall made that "visit but please don't stay" comment. An Orange County guy would feel at home up here...until the fall/winter/spring/early summer rains arrived.
I live roughly 100 miles South of Portland, so there are a few lightly trafficked back-roads near me. I try to not talk about them too much.
Whoa! Cindy just now told me of a Portland TV channel news had a teaser, something about Ferraris being watched by the cops up around Mt. Hood. Choppers in the air. You'd think these guys would want to head off to Idaho or Nevada or somewhere...Something called a "Ferrari Challenge"? What's this? Anybody know?
