What a relief--I was concerned Bundy was going to win the vote, given some of the comments I read. What a travesty that would have been. Taking nothing away from Officer Goodding, and very sad and appalled at the tragedy he suffered, but Ursula will always be a winner in my book.

I share your thoughts about what's happening to Oregon, but I continue to be grateful I live within her borders. My spouse "imported me" from Seattle many long years ago, and I'm glad he did.

Take care and thanks for letting me know the selection for the 2016 OR Person of the Year. Happy holidays!
