Ooh, this is going to be fun! I have been a transportation buff since the mid-1980s, when I spent a year as an apprentice to a transportation consultant. Whenever I see a train, I try to watch it until it is out of sight. Living in the Pacific Northwest surrounded by bodies of water, we …

This week, there have been some excellent stories on the state of the governments' plans to require everyone to drive electric cars.

Years ago, Victoria BC. Here's the link to Terri's Original Post.
This paddle-board was spotted in late July on Beaver Lake near Bellevue, Washington. It's the first time I had ever seen three on one board. Priceless, don't you agree?
