When I first saw Hughes House, the 1898 home (now a museum) built by the Pacific Ocean near Port Orford, OR, I thought, "This is a place to grow up in, be a child in, run about and play in!"
And it is good to know that, at one time and for awhile, there was a family in this house, there were children, and they did run and play through this magical place.
Today I checked out a heron rookery nearby! My conservative count (already possibly incremented by my photos) was 15 herons, probably all fledglings — NO verified responsible adults.
I mean, would you not trust these faces to take care of themselves?
@byteborg Use an alcohol based cleaner to remove every trace of oil and solvent. Unless the silicone you used was food service grade, it probably contains petroleum distillates that will attack some synthetic rubber.
If you can remove the case entirely you can attempt to re- vulcanize the styrene-butadiene rubber (SBR). A weak solution of acetic acid (vinegar) may help reharden
I learned something new about #oregon DMV law. If you buy a car, and don't register it, all your parking tickets go to the previous owner! And there is no way anyone can change that! The previous owner has to pay your parking tickets forever.
You can request a document from the DMV that shows you're not the legal owner anymore, it costs $4, and they never send it to you. You can request it again and pay another $4!
Maybe I'll just report the car stolen, since DMV still shows me as the owner.

This is why you do the paperwork and fill the forms out yourself when you sell a car. You can get it straightened out but OMG who needs that hassle
Yeah, I once sold a guy an old Toyota and he never turned in the paperwork. So later when he got arrested the police called me and said come get your car. It was a mess.

Out in the middle of nowhere is actually somewhere: it's a landscape surrounded by space, and within that space one can walk around outside in one's bathrobe -- or not even that if you please -- and not be seen by the neighbors.
You don't hear their TV or music. No loud cars, or sirens. No shouting, flashing lights, LED advertisements in your face.

Burton is an 85-pound, 3-year-old long-haired German Shepherd. Across his furry black and brown back, he wears a harness that reads, “Please pet,” and at his ceremony, many in attendance did just that.
Dropping off my ballot for today's primary election in #Oregon I encourage you and all your friends who live in the first #VoteByMail state (est. 1999) to vote! It's so easy and convenient!🗳🇺🇲✅
