Re: What did you do with your truck today, Part 3

Still snowbound here, big snow boulders pushed up by the plows across my driveway, so work on truck is5 limited. Electricity was out and no internet for 3 days. Using my phone to post this message. You may have heard about the Amtrak passengers stranded for days when their train became stuck in th snow near here. The only thing I've done on the truck is install my inside rear view mirror - whoopee!

Edit: Just found this: the Governor has declared a State of Emergency for my county:

Oregon Governor Kate Brown Declares State of Emergency in 10 Counties Hit by Winter Storms
Oregon Governor Kate Brown has declared a state of emergency in ten counties because of severe winter storm conditions. Brown made the declaration Thursday for counties including Coos, Curry, Deschutes, Douglas, Jackson, Josephine, Klamath, Lane, Linn, and Marion. In a news release, Brown said the declaration will provide additional resources and the potential for federal highway system money for road fixes. The Oregon Office of Emergency Management will coordinate state resources from police to transportation workers to the National Guard to support local communities as needed. The resources will help communities recover from heavy snow and ice accumulation, high winds, flooding, and landslides. The state of emergency will last 30 days unless Brown ends it before then. In this region, Douglas County has been the hardest-hit area. The Douglas County Board of Commissioners and Douglas County Sheriff's Office have received many requests from people who want to help.
