Apple cider, bumper stickers, & Oregon real estate

Took apples to a friend's place yesterday to make apple cider.
After the juice comes out, these "apple cakes" are what's left.


Sid and Rob
Didn't take long to get all these jars of cider.
So darned good.

I have never had a bumper sticker on a vehicle before.
But couldn't resist these.
Replica of original Tom McCall for Gov bumper sticker
Oregon will celebrate McCall's 100th birthday next year.

Tom McCall made headlines in the late '60s when he said, 
"Come to Oregon to visit, but please don't stay."
Well, times have changed in Oregon.
The economy has gone south. 
Homebuilding has tanked.
You can buy a home for hardly anything.
For example, below are two homes on a prime piece of real estate,
not too far from where we live.
Perhaps a good investment.
Kind of like a duplex,
 live in one, and rent the other out.



Bet you could pick them up for a trifle.
Look closely.  
Can you see the imaginative graphic design?
Bullet holes, moss, and a welcoming sign that says

"Uncle F$%ker's House"

With that, I think this post is finished :)
