If Oregon is anything like western Washington then the rain will hardly ever be like it is over thereā¦ here itās rather tame ā¦ just a lot in terms likeā¦ you might get 2 weeks of straight mild cloudy rainy days whereas over there it tends to all just come down like crazy all at once.
Climate change is kicking in thoughā¦ summers are way drier nowā¦ wildfires burning down whole statesā¦ people moving up from Cali and Oregon to Washington because the desert that used to be Southern California is now encroaching on mid and north Oregon in partsā¦
Why not go for a drive and check the place out. You can crash on my fold out if you get up this way.
I wonāt tell you about the disaster at work the other day then. We have too many projects with very short deadlines right now, and after working until Midnight on Tuesday and 7am to midnight on Wednesday, on Thursday I made two mistakes and brought down a non production instance.
As for Gold Beach. I have been through Gold Beach itās about 200 miles south of me, near the California border.
I believe that Gold Beach and Brookings have a micro climate so they are warmer than the surrounding coastal areas. That area is known as the Banana belt.
Sorry I canāt really answer any questions about it specifically.
A classy offer for sure, especially given how I snore, but itās a 36hr straight through drive. I figure in real world time thatās a 4 day trip, one way. Then a day to recover, a day to look around, and 4 days back. Thatās a 10 day trip to get to look around one day.
Amtrack doesnāt stop there, and itād take even longer.
I guess I could fly, but Iāve never done that before (really), and Iād be car-lesss when I arrived. Nothing money wonāt overcome, butā¦ Money IS a problem.
I guess Iām just at the remote research stage. Itās gonna be the same problem I had when I moved to Arkansas. I canāt go until I get a job, and I canāt get a job until I go.
Last time I solved the problem by selling everything I owned and buying a class A RV, and just drove down with everything I had left (cat and clothes).
Fly over to Seattleā¦ Iāll pick you up and weāll go for a drive Iāve not seen Gold Beach with, and we can swing by Astoria where Goonies was filmed!
Actually no, itās much less noticeable IRL and Iāve come to realize that in a conversation you donāt see the back of peopleās hands that much, let alone well-lit and still.
In 2-3 years I must probably got the question ~10 times and almost always while sitting around a table and being very exposed. 50% think itās medical, the rest are just like āwhatās that?ā.
Not that many I would say but obviously I canāt know. Even in public transportation with my hand holding on the bar people seem to completely ignore it. Everyone is completely captivated by their phones these days.
Maybe once? Iām either bad at noticing it or they just donāt care that much.
I generally avoid them like the plague soā¦ I dunno. Iāve had to hangout with peopleās children sometimes but I canāt remember getting any questions. And when itās brought up they just stare timidly and then go back to shouting and being creepy or whatever
Exactly what I was referencing! Sorry for my tirade, I passed a few tests today and celebrated without eating anything today which was a bad idea. But still, check the porta potty next time, seriously! That freaked me out today!
I think itās similar to people with a missing finger. It takes quite some time to notice. Your brain assumes normality until the circumstances make it that your eyes rest on that place for a few seconds. You usually fixate on oneās face.
