Okay, it’s 2200 and i know we have some precip in the forecast, but did I just hear a rumble of thunder? #salemOr

Has anyone in western #Oregon (the Willamette Valley, #SalemOR, #EugeneOregon, or similar) successfully built and used a solar food dehydrator? I'm considering it, but all the guides I read caution that for effective dehydration, you want pretty hot ambient air temperatures. Our summers are definitely not as mild as they were when I was a kid, but I'm curious to hear if our climate is amenable to solar dehydration or if it's a doomed endeavor.

Downtown for a cuppa and a quick bite before an errand and there are SO MANY thesssssspians! #salemOr

The camas are blooming! #bloomscrolling #SalemOR #PNW #PNWnativeplants

Hey #SalemOr , Pintxo’s has a Dungeness crab croquette special right know and you really want to put some in your face hole.

This is an extremely #SalemOr specific toot, but: I fucking hate the Best of the Valley shit. It’s a scam, it’s completely gameable, and the results are inevitably deeply stupid. (Olive Garden as best Italian being the enduring example…)

You're getting a helluva sunrise this morning, #SalemOr

No shout out to the Marion-Polk First door knocker who ignored both our no solicitation sign and our Pride flag when interrupting my day and leaving their bullshit literature #salemOr
