Hello all

Hey folks.  I've been reading posts at this site for a very long time (years?) and finally decided to sign up.  It's certainly been a good resource for me to learn from and improve my baking.  I have had a few sourdough cultures for a while now and that is what I really enjoy baking with - it all just seems like a big science experiment that you get to enjoy eating when you are done with it!  I've recently relocated from the east side of Oregon to the west side and the rainy season is looking to be the bread baking season for me.  Thanks to all of you who I have enjoyed reading and learning from.  I'll look forward to posting some pictures of my breads as that is what I seem to enjoy more than anything else from others posts!

Welcome to the site, Ed.

Yes, it is very wet here in Western Oregon.  On a wet cool weekend like the one we just had, having the oven on most of the afternoon is an awfully nice way to keep the house warm.
