We are repainting the inside of the house.  Vaccine can't some soon enough!!  Also - dogs' events have all been cancelled except for the Trick Dog certifications, which I now can enter by sending videos!  So dogs can work for treats and maybe even get that Advanced Trick Dog certificate - and we all know how much dogs like certificates.

How are you coping?

John A Davis <hike...@gmail.com>: Apr 05 12:15AM -0700 Today my daughter who came up from San Francisco and I hiked up to Pittcock Mansion from where we parked on NW 25th & Johnson. All residential streets with no one on them and if we ran into anyone we just crossed over to the other side. Ended up arriving at Pittock on the back entrance that is closed to cars with a gate. Sat on the lawn and looked out at NW portland and beyond.   Came down Forest Park trail that leaves from west end of parking lot.   A few people, all keeping their distance. My daughter and I kept our 6 feet apart.   The Mazamas do hikes like this every Tuesday and Thursday. 6 miles 2 hours they call them Street Rambles. They leave from REI. Not happening right now I don't think.   Another Mazamas friend did a SW hike Riverview Cemetary to Terwilliger.   https://www.gaiagps.com/map/?loc=12.0/-122.6731/45.4524&popupLoc=-122.67600/45.46113&pubLink=PgwTe1yav0w0FJQoUqE5nN9s&trackId=144dc31135afd9bd3209be1928f778ac   Lots of options where you don't get very near anybody. When someone came by in Forest Park we just walked off the trail until they passed. Was a great refreshing time.   At home since I am a loner anyway I have lots of projects. Dancing websites, play my new guitar, put music to some songs my Costa Rican friend wrote the words too, clean up and organize my house (that will take longer than any virus vaccine to show up haha).   Saw many spandex mafiosos riding up to Pittcock on their road rockets.     On Saturday, April 4, 2020 at 4:44:09 PM UTC-7, Emilio wrote:

Emilio <Emili...@Earthlink.net>: Apr 05 01:37PM -0700 Interesting ideas so far, including hiking along deserted streets and parks as well as engaging online in ZOOM "happy hours".   I spend more time with my dog. He doesn't care about social distancing. In fact, when I move from one room to another, he keeps following me. A very social creature!   What else are people doing? What other ideas do you have? Let's share.

Linda or Bruce McGavin <mcgav...@gmail.com>: Apr 05 04:48PM -0700 Bruce and I are trying to go for neighborhood walks when the weather is nice, or at times when we are certain it won't rain, have been going for long bike rides along the Trolley Trail, I-205 path, and the Springwater Corridor.   It is also a good time to go through years worth of paper clutter ... I wonder if a shredding company is an essential business?   Linda McGavin

If they taste good.  My cat would love them.  He dumpster dives in the wastebaskets and chews up the thick paper advertisements.
