Bill and I were driving home from Laurelhurst Park on saturday evening and we saw the storm moving from east to west, I was so excitied because I had the camera and I was determined to get a picture, we were driving right into it along marine drive and it was so crazy!.... Well i didn't get a picture but some thing better, a video! Here it is!

Eddie Boys Squirrel-friend...

So, we have a regular fence-runner squirrel (seen below taking penut from my hand) that loves to taunt our dog Ed... Now he is nesting in our gutters (seen in first picture) and driving Ed even crazier! I have started calling him sparky because when he sits on the fence in front of our window he wiggles his tail and he looks like an animatronic puppet it is so funny!
