Some Kind A Paradise

Here we are at the beach, our new internet is all hooked up, new and additional cable channels have been added, the decades old bed has been replaced with a much improved model and a new futon couch with a full size support-o-pedic matress has been ordered and will be here by the end of the month.  

I'm online in one of my favorite places and loving it.  The sun was out, the sky and water were blue and everything went according to plan. 

It's supposed to get really cold and snow in the next couple of days but I 

hope they're wrong about the snow at least.  We saw so many huge tanker ships late this morning under the Astoria/Long Beach bridge, it was like a watery highway.

Apparently the Japanese container shipping company, K-Line, is no longer going to run freight in or out of  Portland.  Yet another example of the recession quickly going depression impacting so much.

We tried watching "Les Parapluies des Cherbourg" (The Umbrellas of Cherbourg) from Netflix

but it was so wierd.  It was like a regular script all set to music.  There is 

no way I could have sat through an hour and a half of that.  Now it's Bob Hope and Paulette Goddard in "Ghost Breaker", almost over. 

 Then we have all sorts of video potluck to choose from, including "Planet Earth".  How's that for eclectic?

 This is the weekend where we spring forward, I much prefer the Fall when we get to go back in time.  I can use every extra hour I can get.  

Time to get more work done.
