What a glorious morning here in Beautiful Central Oregon!

[MARIS61]

Pretty sunrise, 7 deer grazing in the back yard. This goofy-looking yearling with only one antler was up on his hind legs whacking my birdfeeder with it to get the seeds to fall. Coffee and cigar, then I'm off on the Realtor Tour for a few hours.

[BLAZER PROPHET]

Ah, central Oregon. I believe every word of it. It's paradise.

 

[MARIS61]

I actually took pics, will post a couple later if you insist.

 

[EL PRESIDENTE]

Please do.

Glad you enjoy something Maris, Because I know the Blazers aren't in that category of things you enjoy

Lapine isn't Central Oregon. Don't be trying to put Lapine in with the likes of Bend.

Thanks.

I think Maris enjoys the Blazers very much. It's just his communistic, the left is never wrong and the right is never right view of politics that rubs people the wrong way. I enjoy his posts.

 

[BLAZER PROPHET]

Blech!

Yes it is. I love camping at LaPine State Park. It's 100% central Oregon.

When I think back to living in Portland, that's pretty much the first image I think of. Only wetter.

Mark Knopfler in "Telegraph Road" had a great lyric that seemed custom-made for the Portland commute: "These rivers of headlights, and these rivers of rain."

I know Portland's got nothin' on LA, but it's the biggest city I've ever lived in, and I can't imagine going back.

That's the most open I've ever seen an L.A. Freeway.

 

[Fez Hammersticks]

The 405, the only interstate I've ever seen with graffiti on the center barriers. Driving from Riverside to L.A. was a fucking nightmare.

I've had the, um, honor to drive LA freeways a few times and I felt my life was constantly in danger. The difference between Portland and LA freeways is so huge, one has to experience it to believe it. BTW, Atlanta freeways are very close to LA freeways as well.

YOU DON'T GET ON THE 405 TO GO FROM RIVERSIDE TO LA.

 

[Fez Hammersticks]

I know. Two different points I tried to make.

 

[EL PRESIDENTE]

The 405 is actually a decent freeway compared to the other ones. It goes through more upscale neighborhoods than most of the freeways in LA.

I was late to work so it wasn't too busy.

Lapine is about as central as you can get dude! He never mentioned Bend, you are imposing extra definitions.

People who grew up in Bend are offended when somebody from Lapine tries to link the two.

There is Central Oregon (Bend, Sunriver), where people love to vacation and retire. Then there is Lapine, the ghetto.

I will concede this point because he capitalizes "Central Oregon," instead of "central Oregon."

WTF WHERE ARE THE PICS

 

[EL PRESIDENTE]

...it got sunnier.....

.....and why I put up with the concrete jungle.....

True, our Ocean isn't quite the same...
