Field Trip

Well, I have been encouraged to get back to blogging again, so here I am. I just downloaded the two photos above in a fraction of the time it would have taken with dial up. Now the photos are a little strange I will admit, but they relate to what I did today. I didn't go into Salem today, and worked at home for some of the day, but in the afternoon I met with one of my Regional Managers and a representative from the Portland Development Commission (PDC) to look at some property that PDC has purchased over in the Foster Road (Lents) area. They would like to see an Employment office or OneStop center at the location, so we went over to check it out.

On the plus side it is in a great location, transportation-wise: Right next to a light rail stop on the new light rail line to Clackamas Town Center and right next to I-205 and bus lines. On the negative side, it's a rather old seedy building in a not so desirable part of town. But PDC would remodel and part of the reason they do this is for re-development purposes. We have a lot of analysis to do before we make any decision, one way or the other.

So that's what I did today.... I will try to be a more regular contributor to this blog
