Last year, our road was invaded with heavy machinery like the first photo. A logging company had purchased an 80 acre parcel of land to strip it of the forest that lived on it. This next picture was the only one I could find in the archives although I know there are others. It was shot through a lens of my sunglasses which is why the color is interesting.
If you look at the left side, all of the forest that stretched on forever (or so we all thought) was wiped. More machinery.
So they cut many roads on the mountain and it became a desolate area of dirt and debris. Spring is here, so it will be interesting to see what grows.
You may be wondering where this is headed. Well, when I arrived at work on Wednesday, there was another form of ‘destruction’ going on. I had been told it wasn’t supposed to happen until May. 🙄
I usually park there while at work. Needless to say, that’s not possible right now. 😏 In this next picture, the clinic is the white building to the right of the restaurant.
Now, just 2 blocks east of this mess is the road the post office is on. Back last month when we were experiencing the threat of another flood, they had blocked it off to do exactly what you see in my pictures of the road near my workplace. 🧐
Our county, and now apparently the City of Everson, has a reputation for not thinking road projects through and often keeping the roads closed for 3-9 months! Now, to make things more complicated, I’ve been told that 2 majors arteries into Bellingham, both very close to Everson, will be closed for up to 4+ months! Bad planning guys!
I’ve not figured out why on a rural type 2 lane state route, that they are going to put in sidewalks of all things-there. Our tax dollars at work. 🙄🤑💰💵
And we wonder why they need so many taxes and bond levees! I guess you can’t fight city hall!
Work was busy. Our fill in doc had a busier schedule than originally booked, which was good, and I had some folks come in just to order.
The good thing is that it’s Friday and I’m free for 4 whole days! Nice! 😎👍
That’s gonna be all for today. Take care and enjoy the rest of your day wherever you are! 🙏🌏🙏

BSB Acts 2:1-13
When the day of Pentecost came, they were all together in one place. Suddenly a sound like a mighty rushing wind came from heaven and filled the whole house where they were sitting. They saw tongues like flames of fire that separated and came to rest on each of them. And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other tongues as the Spirit enabled them.
Now there were dwelling in Jerusalem God-fearing Jews from every nation under heaven. And when this sound rang out, a crowd came together in bewilderment, because each one heard them speaking his own language.
Astounded and amazed, they asked, “Are not all these men who are speaking Galileans? How is it then that each of us hears them in his own native language? Parthians, Medes, and Elamites; residents of Mesopotamia, Judea and Cappadocia, Pontus and Asia, Phrygia and Pamphylia, Egypt and the parts of Libya near Cyrene; visitors from Rome, both Jews and converts to Judaism; Cretans and Arabs—we hear them declaring the wonders of God in our own tongues!”
Astounded and perplexed, they asked one another, “What does this mean?”
But others mocked them and said, “They are drunk on new wine!”
