Big Storm, and a minor blog change

Well, yet another big storm hit our little coastal community Sunday morning (started around midnight). Plenty of high winds (94 mph according to a friend who has a wind gauge/ 85 mph according to a Seattle news station), and plenty of rain. Power went out at 3:30 AM, and did not come back on until late Sunday evening. Spent most of today of cleaning up; but on the whole, the storm was not nearly as bad as the ’07 one. Nice to be back online…

NOTICE: Due to recent spam popping up in some of the comboxes, I have decided to suspend anonymous posting (Rory, you are just going to have to bite the bullet and get a Google account!!! [grin]).


Grace and peace,

David

P.S. Almost forgot to mention, an Oregon team is going to the Rose Bowl!!!

I heard that an Oregon team is going to the Rose Bowl. Interestingly enough, a team from Ohio is going too. I hope that the weather cooperates out there so you will be able to watch the game.

I hope you and yours have a Happy Thanksgiving!

Me: Ohio State must have a lock on the conference title; should be a great game, whether it is the Beavers or the Ducks who gets to beat them! [GRIN]

Me: Same to you and yours Paul.


God bless,

David

Ohio State won the Big Ten title outright. With the way the schedules are structured, it's the first time that has happened in awhile.

As far Ohio State winning the Rose Bowl, Coach Tressel can get his teams to beat that team up North but for some reason he can't get them motivated to win bowl games. It's almost like they are there to sightsee instead of playing football. Maybe this year will be different.
