Before Lent started this year, someone at the shop asked me what I was giving up for Lent.Now a few years ago Mary and I purchased a at home soda maker from Sodastream USA. Best thing since sliced bread. Since that time I have developed a taste for the diet orange soda they have. Addicted is the term Mary uses. So I, thinking Lent was like Two weeks long said , " My Diet Soda." After two weeks ,I asked Mary when Lent was over and she informed me that it ends Easter Weekend. |

As I sit here and type this ,waiting for the snow to start, I got to thinking about the "Big Snow " here in Roseburg. How many of you can remember "The Big Snow"? January 1969 , 44.20" per the archives from KQEN . Almost 14" in one 24 hour period. What I mostly remember from that time was something like 7 snow days , maybe more .Seems longer. Snow everywhere , nobody going anywhere in a car. I lived on Currier St. out in Winchester back then, I was 11 1/2 years old. |
