		<description><![CDATA[No one is happier about Portland&#8217;s record December snowfall finally melting than our Irvington neighborhood Gnome. There was more than enough white stuff to fill his tree-trunk abode, so I&#8217;m assuming people kept his doorway sufficiently cleared so he could maintain his perpetual southeasterly gaze from our block. At least the Gnome didn&#8217;t have to [...]]]></description>
