Now cleaning out records I have found the original title and trust book for one of my parents' homes in the area. I don't know for which one it is( on 41st or 44th) and would like to know if you would be interested in having it. Hi Doug,

I am writing stories and this would fit nicely onto one page of the book. "I'll be Home for Christmas" I wonder, could I have your permission to use this? I would really appreciate this.

I live in Rose City Park, but just a short distance from the Alameda Ridge, where I jog and take the baby for strolls to admire the old, big houses. I've become interested in the geologic history of the Ridge, especially the Missoula Floods that created it. Part of my interest is just curiosity, but it also has some practical implications for us: the gravelly soil on the Ridge deposited by the Floods is making it hard to get sewer work done on our street, and may be related to the higher-than-normal radon levels in our neighborhood. Do you know of any good books or other resources on this topic? Thanks. --Erich Great site; thanks for putting it together.
