[or-roots] Can't resist sending this

[Dorothy Wogh]

Phillip & Barbara:

Now you are talking about my area Sandy Blvd.  & Osborne Road which was
called the Columbia River Highway.  Did George Schmidt sell his nursery?  I
still have the holly tree that he gave us years ago.  When I lived there on
the other side of the street was a big farm.  Is it all being built up with
houses, etc.
