Moon Over Mount Baldy

Taken from our front porch last night. Mount Baldy is now known as Mount Livingston. I like Mount Baldy better. I hate it when they change place names. Unless it was truly stupid. Like New Amsterdam or Constantinople.

How 'bout changing N Portland Blvd. to Rosa Parks Blvd. (out where Thai Ginger is)? Threw me off for a moment, thought it was a sign I just never noticed before.

I like Mt. Baldy better, too. More character.

Looks like the moon I saw last night in Shaniko. They're talking about changing N Interstate Blvd to Caesar Chavez Blvd here now, which is fine with me. I guess I'm kinda fine with all the features formerly named Squaw something being renamed, but only if they research the history of the area and find a good, sensible name. Remember when they tried to rename Oregon's Whorehouse Meadow to Naughty Girl Meadow? The locals wouldn't have it and they had to keep the original name.
