My little town is nestled between the Pacific Ocean and the Coastal Range in Oregon State.
A nothing town.
The population consists of Retirees, Loggers, Laid off Loggers, SSI Recipients (mental cases, back problems etc.), the "Born and Bred" (ya know the ones....right out of the movie "Deliverance"), and the local Back Street Drifter whom we call "Cricket". He's the guy we go to to find out who stole our car, who ripped off all the tools in the tool shed, who stole the neighbors chickens and any other bit of information. Cricket will take all your bottles and cans for refunds for you.....no need for recyclers here. The Confederate Flag flies freely....so, Mr. Obama, warning, if you choose to come for a campaign stop here I would suggest that you have an army of Secret Services Agents and a heavily armored vehicle at your disposal. But all of this aside.....I love it here.
I will tell you things about this place that are wonderful, disturbing, funny, sad, and balancing on the absurd.......
Stay tuned.
