I was looking at the section of Hillsboro being added to the Indian Hills Boundary and noticed that the block of homes is immediately west of Hillsboro City Park & Recreation's Frances Street Park, literally across the street.
As I was looking at the images, it finally clicked on why Paula Jean Park is getting pushed out of the best elementary school in the area and these folks are getting pulled in.
Paula Jean Park has the biggest playground climbing structure in the area!
I guess they want to make sure that our kids don't get all the 'perks'. Seems like a reasonable argument but I hope we can at least have a discussion about it.

Thanks BPA! The hum and crackle of those powerlines gives me warm reassurance that the Columbia is still flowing.
I really want to try taking a fluorescent tube under the lines some night and see if it glows, like in the song:
Light Up My Room
Barenaked Ladies
A Hydro-field cuts through my neighborhood
Somehow that always just made me feel good
I can put a spare bulb in my hand
And light up my yard
Late at night when the wires in the walls
Sing in tune with the din of the falls
I'm conducting it all while I sleep
To light the whole town
