I had half a day off to go shopping today (this is an annual “gift” from my employer: all employes get one half day in December to shop). Shopping wasn’t all that wonderful, but the view of Mt Hood on my way home was.
So I stopped and snapped a photo from the West Linn side of the river.
Because the leaves are gone, you can even see Willamette Falls.
I got to studying this photo and realized I could see where I was standing in Oregon City when I took this photo.
I was standing right there, where the tip of the arrow is.
Of course, knowing I could pinpoint that vantage point, I had to look at the first photo again and see if I could pinpoint where I was standing today.
There I am. At the rest stop on I-205 Northbound.
Or was.
Anyway, it was a rare crisp, clear day. I think it got up to 30 degrees, but I wore long underwear today and it didn’t feel so bitter cold.
After I took the photo and did all that deep thinking about pin-pointing my vantage points, I did get some Christmas shopping done. But I hate the mall. Can I never have to go to the mall again?

No, you don’t have to go to the mall again. Waldo went to the mall once and look at what happened to him! At least you have arrows to pinpoint yourself. Just think what would happen if you went to the mall and there was no way to pinpoint you. We’ never find you!!
Thanks for the BD card.
Ah luvs yew tew!
