The Beautiful Town Of Oakland, Oregon

We highly recommend visiting the little town of Oakland, Oregon the next time you are between Eugene and Roseburg, Oregon.

EDITOR'S NOTE: This is the first time I used a feature that allows me to send pictures from my mobile phone directly to our blog. The title will initially read "Multimedia Message" until I get to a real computer to edit the title. This has been a handy way for us to get pictures up the moment we are there.

Which Is Better?


A true story that happened while we were in Boston:

I was on the 2nd floor of Macy's waiting for the elevator down because the escalator was broken. There was a long line of disgruntled females as the elevator seemed to be taking so long. all of a sudden, two teen-aged, Britney Spears wannabes showed up in their little mini skirts and over-done faces. They blurted out that they were NOT going to wait for the elevator and ran up to the emergency double doors. They paused and wondered out loud if they could go through, not seeing the giant red sign that said EMERGENCY EXIT ONLY. Quickly without using their brains they burst open the doors and all hell broke loose. They screamed (for attention)and Macy's store employees began running around shouting. The two girls stood there looking very stupid. I approached and asked them a question: "Hey girls, is it better to be SMART or CUTE?" They stood there staring at me, tapping their heels nervously on the tile floor. "CUTE!" the one with bright red lip gloss said triumphantly. "WRONG!" I said to them. "It is better to be BOTH!"
