Gorgeous sunset from Mt Tabor park. Lots of big, downed trees on the north and east side of the park from our ARCTIC WINDS three weeks ago. But honestly the damage wasn’t quite as bad as I feared. I guess the historic shelter took a pretty good hit but that part of the park was cordoned off.
I was intrigued so I looked up the average high and low temperatures across WA for August of 1899. Olga's average low of 45F is pretty impressive as it's about 4 degrees colder than anything we've seen in the last 50 years. The fact it's so much colder than every other location on the west side does make me wonder if there was an error with the thermometer at that time or maybe it was just incredible cold winds blowing off the straight.

She’s come full circle. Voted for Obama twice, sat out 2016 and 2020. Voted for the first time since 2012 in the 2022 mid terms (people forget the Republican gubernatorial candidate only lost by 2.6% that year.), and is extremely motivated to vote for Trump this year. She supports abortion rights too, but the democrats are too extreme on that issue even for her and have completely alienated her on everything else. She’s really connected with the working class Hispanic community in this area, and reports that demographic is undergoing a rapid shift politically. She finds Bidens woke pandering to be patronizing racism and much more deeply offensive than Trump railing against illegals.
The fact she used to be against Trump makes that a big deal. I'm going to be making some donations to Senate and / or House candidates who are in tight races. Still thinking about sending something to Trump as well.
