I have always said being retired is, “Waking up in the morning with nothing to do, and going to bed half finished.” So today being “Drive Your Magnette Day”, Oct 8th I had to pick up some plumbing parts to repair a water meter for a small water system near by.

Flowing north from a deep fissure at the foot of Mount Hood, the lava first poured down the valley in a single, broad stream, pushing the Middle Fork River from its channel. But view from above, the formation takes on a more recognizable form. From the farms near Parkdale, the lava flow looks like a ridge of jumbled boulders, with the occasional Douglas fir or Ponderosa pine poking out of the chaos. ![]() This dramatic flow is among the largest and youngest in the Cascades, yet remains surprisingly unknown. Here, the unexpected view of a dark wall of lava known as the Parkdale Lava Flow is a surprise to even longtime Oregonians. For many, the trip takes them to the tiny farm hamlet of Parkdale, in the heart of the upper valley of Hood River. So the next day after our family BBQ we drove the ZB up to the upper valley of Hood River to the Lava Nursery area. I was unable to attend the Goldendale Motorsports Association who hosting their 23rd annual Concours de Maryhill Open Car Show at the Maryhill Museum of Art Octodue to the prior scheduled BBQ. So I went out for a quick drive in the morning so I could experience “Drive your Magnette” on the scheduled day and this year I have two dates to keep with “Drive your Magnette Day” since it was listed for both Oct 1st and the 8th. Then over the grocery store to pick up the supplies for the BBQ that was scheduled before I know it was Drive Your Magnette Day on Oct 1st.īut this did not stop me, the BBQ was cleaned, propane tank filled up, ready to go and the yard was watered and the lawn mowed. I then also drove over to the local UPS Store to drop off some packages to return one was a faulty RPM gauge I wanted to install in the ZB to monitor the engine revaluations. Yesterday, Sept 30th I drove the ZB to make a bank deposit it’s no fun sending in your bank deposits over the internet.
