Jeremy,
Went by the elevator today to check on the color. It is now has a light
green base and tower with a dark green observation deck area. We live
out on the Clackamas river. Our daughter and all her cousins went to OC
public schools. Be thankful you live in SF. Oregon's economy is in the
toilet, 7% unemployment, and the state has a huge deficit and the
schools are taking a beating. Even though Mt Hood has snow, the beach
is close, and it was sunny today. It is still a great place to live.
