And they said Chicago is windy. Har har har. Remember the storm we had this time last year, when we lost power for five days? Apparently it's an annual occurrence. This one wasn't as bad for us in particular, but in general it was worse than last year's. Lots of flooding, including one of the towns we were thinking of buying a house in, Vernonia. Their shit is fucked up right now, like Katrina fucked. The coast got hit the hardest (look at the wind speeds in the picture above) but the whole state, and Washington as well, got a pretty sound thrashing.

Not much damage here to speak of, not like last year's storm. Just a fuckton of rain. But a few trees did come down. Here's our neighbor's meth lab guest house after eating a chunk of Doug Fir. Very exciting.
