Miss her? Boy! Will we! She plans to go to the University of Washington
pursuing a medical career. Vancouver, WA is ~165 miles by freeway to the UW
in Seattle, Dad's home town. I think the International part of the program
is she needs to take a foreign language plus, the other courses need to be
of college credit quality. Her Spanish courses when complete in hi-school
will have earned college credit. If she gets to good with Spanish, she may
have to prove her citizenship. <G> But, she does have a Passport.

Glad to hear all is fine. My sister lives in Oregon, they've had some bad
weather. She relates a freezing fog, she fell on the ice, broke her back
in three places. No paralysis, but lots of pain.
You will miss your daughter when she becomes International; if that means
she will study elsewhere. I have a granddaughter in Germany we see very
seldom. My grandson is interning in New York as a fashion photographer.
Our dog is 13 years old and deaf as a post, nothing bothers him.
Take care...

Many thanks for the concern but we did fine. A few folks in the County
lost some roofing material and siding; 'haven't heard of any injuries.
The newscasters seem to have exaggerated it somewhat. Far less of a
nuisance than when Mt Saint Helens blew; ash everywhere and we're some 35
miles south of the mountain.
Annie, the Mrs, was out running errands with her mom and experienced
heavy rains and I was home with daughter's dog, Amy, a bark forever Silky
and then continuous thunder followed by the heaviest downpour of hail
that I've ever experienced. When that happened, Pupper (the name I use
for the dog) ran into the Pupper Cave (under my roll-top desk; floor
level) and stayed there until the storm passed and her courage returned.
Heavy hail for about 10 minutes leaving ¼" of white stuff. My UPS kicked
in and out a few times and all is back to the normal NW rainy weather for
this time of year.
Our daughter, a Junior (always "A's"!! going for a International
Baccalaureate Diploma!!) in hi-school reported they did a lockdown to
keep the younguns from any danger.
Take care,
Don

Did you weather the tornado okay? Do you need any help? How about the
neighbors?
