The Snow Of 2008
Portland got a fair amount of snow over a week, I think the most actually since 1968. The worst part is driving on hills and corners. A little tricky. Closer to Mount Hood, there's always alot more snow and skiing! Snowshoeing! Nordic skiing! My friend J lives very close to Hood and is used the snow. Unfortunately, her transformer blew and as a result has no electricity, so no heat in addition to no light. And the snow crashed through her roof. It is leaking into her kitchen. She is snowed in as she lives at the end of a private road. She is waiting for PGE and the snowplow guy to get up there soon. Hopefully before dark. Please send good thoughts her way!
