This Saturday night will be a rare Planetary Parade lighting up the night sky. Six planets will align and be visible to the naked eye about 30 to 60 minutes after sunset in the western sky. You’ll need to be in an area not "polluted" by lights. Hopefully we’ll get clear skies.
The Portland Trail Blazers will host their second “She Hoops” clinic of the season at Lake Oswego High.

They’re bringing in women from the Blazers organization to talk careers, leadership, and what it really looks like to work in sports.

STACEY & MIKE WATCHLIST:
Stacey: 56 Days on Amazon Prime. Oh. My. Lordt! You think you know what's happening but you don't know. And let me geek out for a second because I didn't realize who was starring in this until I finished it. The leads are Dove Cameron (former Disney star) and Avan Jogia (former Nickelodean star) so both are former child actors (Dove is also a singer) and both are with singers. Dove is engaged to Damiano David of Maneskin and Avan has been in a relationship with Halsey for a couple of years.
Mike: H/Jack. Edris is the man.
