My brother flew into PDX today (required picture of PDX carpet). He had it all worked out. Since Kansas is soooo very hot and humid in the summer, he planned to escape the weather and spend some time with his Pacific NW family.
Mother nature had other plans. Kansas is having temperatures in the high 70’s while the valley is experiences a heat wave….mid 90’s.
As he left the airport he laughed out loud. “This feels familiar,” he stated as we were hit by the humid heat.
Worse, the traffic coming home was at a crawl. We finally pulled off in Wilsonville and ate dinner at a lovely Chinese restaurant. Weather would not dampen our spirits.
Tomorrow he heads to the coast where the weather is to be mid-60’s ! Yes, finally he will experience the cool weather of Oregon.
Be kind to my brother, Oregon Coast. No more surprises.
