    Odd, indeed. But selfishly, I'm loving it. Soon, the rain will descend upon the PNWet and we will yet again endure a cold, gray, wet, and long winter.

    Enjoy it while it lasts because I suspect when Mother Nature gets up from her booze and psychedelic-fueled trip, she will unleash the (very wet) pain upon us.

    Please give me that sweet, sweet wetness. My gills are dry and my webs disappearing.

    Why does my wife want to move out of the snow zone when we leave here? I keep telling her it just means more of this shit. Fukn hot humid crap that slaps you in the face when you walk out and envelops you in a warm comfy cocoon for a moment before it turns to sweat...

    And the beach is moving closer and closer to us.. Maybe in 300 years we'll practically be there.
    Go that way really REALLY fast. If something gets in your way, TURN!

    Why leave? I hate the heat and throw in some humidity and I want to start killing people.

    Our taxes are outrageous. I know, everyone says that but is 2/3 acre with a ~1500 SQ ft, 2bd/1ba with no town water or sewer or natural gas worth $16k/yr? Methinks not.

    Please tell me that’s a typo. You pay $1,300 a month in property taxes. That’s criminal.

    Depends where your house is and what it’s worth. If it’s worth $1m + I’d say so it is reasonable.

    Prop 13 is one of the worst property tax laws in history. Thanks to it, the LA Country club pays $50k in taxes on land worth billions, fucking over everyone else. It significantly favors old money over the poor and anyone trying to buy for the first time. There are many more losers from prop 13 than winners.

    A million dolllar home pays 4 grand a year where I live. On what planet is $1300 a month a reasonable bill for property taxes on a single family residence?

    What do you get for that?

    Well, it's a dead end so we get plowed when they get to it, it hasn't been repaved for 40 years and there's a monster pothole in front of my driveway, the closest streetlight or sidewalk is a mile and a half away, we pay a special $100/yr add-on for garbage pickup, as mentioned no gas/water/sewer. IMO the schools suck but I guess if you're ok with nepotism, misogyny and teachers dating then marrying students they're ok. We don't have a dump or recycling center so if it doesn't fit in a garbage can we either get a dumpster or transport it out of the county ourselves. Good luck getting rid of old paint cans. On the upside if you have an armed home invasion they will actually arrest and imprison the perp as opposed to towns just south of me where they slap them on the wrists and send 'em on their way.

    Due to the covid real estate boost the town was reassessed and our value apparently jumped about 50% so they added about $5k to our tab over three years. It was already too high but now it's unsustainable.

    Yeah.....BTDT when we had the heat dome 2 years ago. Have yet to hit triple digits this year though they are predicting it this weekend.

    Local weather people have been moaning and groaning about the heat. I'm all "meh." After that damn heat dome I'm unfazed by anything under 100.
