Oregonians cause bad weather

Grandpa Milo and Grandma Sarah arrived here from Oregon yesterday. I went to the airport to pick up them after work. It is great to finally have them here in our new house. They arrived just a little before the Wednesday night bible study started, so we just ran home airport and had some snacks while we waited for Lorena and the kids to get home from the meeting. The weather has been phenomenal here all winter long. We have had some cold snaps and even a little snow, but I can not remember any time when we had more than two or three days of cold or rainy weather between days with 70 degree weather. Then the Oregonians arrived. It rained and was cold for two days before they got here. It was 27 degrees when they arrived at the airport and 23 degrees on the way in to work. The forecast does not look great.

I no longer buy into the theory that the weather in Oregon is nasty because of the topology, climatic conditions, La Niña, El Niño, water currents in the ocean, volcanic activity, etc., etc. I believe the weather is bad in Oregon because that is where Oregonians live. If Oregonians moved to Florida or San Diego, the weather there would turn bad. It is true. If you want to solve the water problem in the Sahara, send some Oregonians to live there. Believe it.

    The weather gets better every year. Blame it on global warming.

    It was SUCH a beautiful day here in the great state of OREGON!
    Sunny blue skies! 60+ degrees! I had to take a half day off to work in the yard!

    Boy, talk about the pot calling the kettle black!?! Have you no loyalty at all to your native land?
