Really sad story out of Forest Grove today where nine cats were killed when a home caught fire while no one was home. But, I did get to witness one kitty, who was extremely upset, get rescued by two AMR medics and a neighbor. www.newsinthegrove.com/home-damaged...

Candidates need to cool it with the announcements they're running for office in November, they're still counting ballots from the May election. I'm not writing an "I'm running for office" story until like, July at the earliest.

A bond to fund the construction of a new police station in Forest Grove is narrowly losing in early results, but I'd wait for more before making any confident statements on this one. www.newsinthegrove.com/forest-grove...

Ye old Election Night Pizza Tradition (where I unashamedly ask my subscribers and followers for money on Election Night for pizza and whiskey) is live. That's right: you can support local journalism by feeding a local journalist. buy.stripe.com/14A3cv9EX95B...
