Well, the power is back on, for now.  We are in the middle of another storm in Portland, this one is focusing on wind.  Like, 70mph gusts.
After being in Portland for the evening, and seeing many parts of the city with the power out, I headed home only to be stopped halfway up my road by the fire marshal who told me, “A tree fell across the road and took down the power lines, it will be an hour or so until the road is clear.”
Well, Scappoose isn’t the most exciting town to kill an hour in - even at 9:30 on a Thursday night.
But I’m home now, and have power.  Here’s hoping theres power in the morning, and no trees down over the road, or my house, or my car.
