Spent the afternoon at the Portland Historic Auto Races. I used to go to the Monterey Historics quite regularly so I was thrilled to find we had our own here. And unlike at Laguna Seca the racers here seem to treat this as a serious race rather than a parade for their million dollar toys.
I first hit the chicane off the long straight off the start.
An arson was responsible for this fire on Aug. 7 on Vierra Road near Brownsville. The suspect was captured on Aug. 10 and is being investigated for as many as 60 fires in the past three years.
You can certainly see bald eagles in the Sierras. I have a friend who lives in Cape Breton, with a nice view of the Canso Strait. From her front porch she often sees 20 or 30 bald eagles flying above the waters. I would so love to see that.
