Nehalem River at the Farm August 2018


The river has been lovely this summer. Starting in May when we had nice weather and one of the lowest rainfalls on record. Here at the farm we had only 2 days of measurable rainfall. It was great for fruit tree pollination, but not good for fire danger and was a warning of the heat to come. July and August were hot. Portland set a record for most days over 90. It is cooler here at the farm, typically 5-10 degrees cooler than Portland, but still hot. So, a nice dip in the Nehalem after a hot day working on firewood is wonderful. We have also had a number of folks visit and enjoy the river, and that is always fun. And of course Bernie and Max want to be in the river all of the time, especially Bernie and his sticks!



Sampat and Kay visited last week.
