Interesting, you always learn something.

Stick with the two dog limit. The caninification–of farmer’s markets, sidewalks, merchants’ doorways, even restaurants–has got to be chokechained early.
And can you do something about the squirrels? Albany had no squirrels, especially on the west side, until the past few years. Now, they’ve made it all the way west to Broadway. They’re rats with tails, and if I can’t blame you or Dick Olsen or the City, who can I blame?

Yahoo! I am so glad to hear that the carpet will be replaced. This is a very nice building and it is a shame that the “new” carpet looks worse that the “old” one did.

Hooray for having the courage to correct the error so we can continue to present ourselves to the public in our Sunday best! Hopefully, this time around we will obtain another “funky” pattern that hides our dirt. : )

Thanks, Wes.
Marie

HWY 20 bike path between Corvallis and Albany:
There will be a cycling event on Sunday Sept. 7 to raise awareness for the proposed bike path between Albany and Corvallis. It is scheduled to begin at noon at Michael’s Landing, Corvallis and end at the Calapooia Brewery on River Ave. in Albany. Anyone interested in supporting the cause are invited to join the ride!

Wes:

Great blog article– although I have been thinking about commuting to work on my mountain bike for some time, you have inspired me to “take the plunge” and start commuting to city hall in Roseburg. I will probably start with commuting on Friday’s and if successful build from there.

You have also inspired me to consider doing this type of communication with the citizens here in Roseburg– do you have any data on how often this is read?

Hi Wes,
Just to prove that I continue to faithfully follow the trials of triumphs of my successor, as well as apparently being his only fan, I thought I should continue my pattern of offering helpful advice. First, thank you for leaving me out of this particular venture so that I can continue to take credit for successfully leading you to the mountain top on Oregon’s highest peak (and, no, I’ve never held you personally responsible for my heart attack shortly thereafter)! Secondly, you should know that my predecessor used his excercise time around town to take note of various property code violations, streets that needed sweeping, sidewalks that needed to be repaired, burned out street lights that needed to be called in to Pacific Power, and other infractions and maintenance tasks that needed to be dealt with by the city staff. I’d recommend that you do the same. The employees will come to admire your dedication as well as come up with various endearing terms for you that you may not even hear about. Glad to be of help…
Steve
