NO MORE SNOW, PLEASE!

Oh My Gosh!
I can not believe this weather!

I NEVER EVER WANT SNOW AGAIN!

This is what we get for having a winter of snow!
Every time there is snow in the winter for any length of time,
we pay for it in the summer time with HEAT!
Of course I love the snow better than the heat!
Me and Hot do not get along to well!
So to cool you off here are some pics.....






Ahhh! Just to have a little bit of that white stuff right now!
Stay Cool!

Update on THE HAND

Just in:

Word is that there are two more bodies missing and they could be found between Palmer Junction and Hermiston Oregon.
Shannon Marie Sloan was known to sell Drugs.
The two men that lived with her are missing.
Her dog was missing until someone found it at Palmer Junction and took it to the vet.
I SAY:
Let the dog be, and FOLLOW IT! Dogs always find their owners!
Jeremiah Johnson was rumored to OWE a lot of money to the drug people.

So....

Could it be Drug Related?

The pond has been checked out by local people, and there is a bit of water still left it in it.
No dead Goldfish could be seen, and there are still live Gold Fish in the water.

I felt bad, because those fish should not of been sacrificed.
It was bad enough that their "full meal deal was taken away!" home was disrupted.

I need to get a hold of CASTLE and let him know! I bet he would get it figured out!
I love him his show.

Maybe He IS working on the Crime in Elgin.
Anyone seen him around?
They are suppose to air the first show of the season
SEPTEMBER 21, 2009

Good Work Castle!

This sure was quick!

Victim in pond murder ID'd

Written by Observer staff reports July 29, 2009 03:00 pm

An Elgin woman has been identified as the victim of the Elgin pond murder.

The victim is Shannon Marie Sloan, 51, Sheriff Boyd Rasmussen confirmed this morning.

Sloan’s family was notified by law enforcement officers Tuesday that she had been positively identified as the victim.

Identification was made after her hand, discovered Friday night in a pond south of Elgin, was sent to Clackamas County where it was evaluated by the State Medical Examiners Office.

The hand was found in a pond along Pumpkin Ridge Road. Its discovery was reported to the Union County Sheriff’s Department at 7:40 p.m. Friday.

No additional details are being released because of the ongoing investigation, Rasmussen said.

The murder is being investigated by Union County’s Major Crime Team, comprised of the Union County Sheriff’s Department, the district attorney’s office, the La Grande Police Department, the Elgin Police Department and the Oregon State Police.

ANOTHER REPORT:

Human hand is identified as part of a homicide case

by The Oregonian

Wednesday July 29, 2009, 1:45 PM

A human hand discovered in Union County has been identified as belonging to a 51-year-old woman named Shannon Marie McKillop, the sheriff's office said this morning.

The county's major crimes team is treating the case as a homicide.

The hand was discovered near Elgin, in eastern Oregon, on property owned by the Boise Cascade timber company. It was to be sent to the state medical examiner's office for further study. But the sheriff's office declined to release additional details.

Public records show that McKillop's last known address was 235 N. 15th St. in Elgin. She's also known as Shannon Marie Sloan.

It is amazing that they identified ONE HAND OVER NIGHT like this! Ummm...

Amazing what they can do with only ONE HAND!

Did she have a hang nail?

They would of had to go by FINGERPRINTS and we all know that takes a long time!

So MAYBE there HAD TO BE a BODY to go along with it!

It is amazing that the media thinks we are all stupid!

Could it be that they had MORE THAN THE HAND to identify this person with?

I feel really bad and I hope they catch the person that did this!

Mysterious Hand in Elgin Oregon

There is a small town in Eastern Oregon that rests along the foot hills of the blue mountains.
It is a cowboy town. (or use to be).

Not much happens in Elgin, Oregon.
(More information on ELGIN)

Oh, once a year they have what is called the Elgin Stampede which is the high light of every citizen that lives there.

There has even been a movie made called
Sammyville

which takes place around Elgin.
Sammyville is a neighboring community and yes it IS True!
There really is a Sammyville.

But this is not the basis of my story.
My story takes place just yesterday.
The media will wear out a news story.
IE: Michael Jackson, Obama, just to name a few.
But when it comes to REAL news, the kind that hits home....We are lucky to get a blurb.
Well the blurb the other night was:

"A body part in the form of a hand was found near Elgin Oregon.
It has been sent to a lab for identification."


COME ON PEOPLE!!!! You think this is going to satisfy anyone?
Especially when it happens practically in our back yard!
Well here is the story going around town ~ from a few that live there:
(I can not reveal my sources but it comes from someone that lives in Elgin)

There is a pond behind Boise Cascade Mill in Elgin, that has gold fish in it. People would go up there to get gold fish for their homes.
Two people went up there and while scooping out some fish, they saw something floating in the pond. It appeared to be a hand, but the boy was not sure, so he called a friend to come take a look. Freaking out, they determined that indeed it was a hand.
They called the Elgin Police.
In Elgin, the police rarely ever answer, so they called 911.
The sheriff came out to take a look.
Yes it was a hand.
They drained the pond, (poor fishies died), and found a Head.
In near by bushes they found a body in a plastic bag.
They have sent all this to a lab in Clackamas County for Identification.

Everyone is wondering if it could be a boy that has been missing for a week,
Or a girl that has been missing since the Stampede a couple weeks ago.
No one knows for sure.

Someone got a picture of the hand emailed to their phone.
Someone else asked him to email HIM the picture.
First person said, "OH I can't. We were told not to."
"Well someone sent it to YOU didn't they?"
It is all about power.

Now I was not there during this incident,
and this could all just be a "story",
But I doubt it.
