A Northwest Update From Doctor Mom
The good doctor sent me this crazy beaver story from the grand Pacific Northwest, as "Reason #7 Why I Should Consider Moving to Oregon." You be the judge.

Determined Oregon trooper chases wandering beaver
By The Associated Press
PORT ORFORD, Ore.
When Oregon State Police Trooper Robert Gorman approached a wandering beaver that appeared to be lost, he knew it was going to be one of those situations the police academy does not train to handle.
"It's the first time I've ever had to chase down a beaver," Gorman said.
The beaver was out of place, on a dock raised high above the bay at Port Orford. Probably, it had left nearby Hubbard Creek in search of a mate.
Gorman called state wildlife biologist Clayton Barber, who advised the officer to catch the beaver.
Not so easy. It took one commercial fisherman, a noose, a driftboat, one surfer, a pickup, two dogs, a salmon net and a borrowed dog kennel. And three hours.
Fill in your own punch line here. And thanks for the slice of Oregon life, Mom!

Blog Rumblings
First off, isn't it about time I updated this blog?
Second off, isn't it about time for a blog redesign?
Third off, how about Finland bringing back the Silver Medal in hockey from the Torino Games? If not for a snapped stick at a most inopportune time, Helsinki's finest would have been tasting gold.
More soon...
