Last week, I shared on Facebook, that I snorkeled for the first time. For many people, that’s not such a big deal. I really didn’t expect it to be such a big deal for me either, because I thought I’d overcome a big water fear seven years earlier, and was very surprised to have it . . . → keep reading 
Yes, it’s totally a thing here in Oregon! And it’s this Saturday, August 9th. It commemorates the pairing of the city of Boring, in Oregon, and the village of Dull, in Scotland, as a “Pair for the Ages”.
