New to middle school parenting.
It’s impressive that kids are required to wear three pairs of shoes, three tops and three bottoms. The Big Clothing Lobby must have gotten to them.

On a 5-0 city council vote Monday, West Linn became Oregon’s 18th city to repeal costly parking mandates.

More than 2 million Oregonians are free of mandates
