Indeed, other people are drawn to you, fascinated by you, inspired by you -- and all because you are simply you at all times, unfet- tered and unforced. To say that you are genu- ine is an understatement, and your penchant for the original is sure to serve you well in all things, from your personal relationships to your professional endeavors. MONDAY, APRIL 6 ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- Subtle shifting of essential components will do the trick today. Others will want to watch and learn -- but you must stay on task. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- You have a lesson to offer a younger family member, but things may not go quite as planned. You may end up being the one taught a lesson! GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- A new phase begins today as you dispense with something you no longer feel you need. This could be a change that affects you for some time. CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- You’ll be able to embrace a new opportunity today without calling much attention to yourself. You can reveal all after making some prog- ress. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- You are ready and willing to go where required today to do what it is you want to do -- though someone may object to your “overeager” attitude. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- You’ll be given good reason to take better care of your- self today and in the days to follow. Someone provides a behavioral template. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- You must, above all else, avoid overindulgence today. You may put yourself in very real danger by ignoring the limits another has set for you. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- You may realize that something you thought would pay off handsomely is really not likely to pan out. It’s a good day for a new plan. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) -- Explanations or excuses aren’t likely to be enough when a heartfelt apology is called for today -- like it or not. You can get it done. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- You may wonder at the influences being exerted today, but a quick look into the past reveals much that you hadn’t noticed previously. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- You’re going to have to follow the rules, surely, but you can interpret them in your own way -- and, at times, rather loosely too! PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- You’ll derive much from your inner circle today. When the time comes, you’re going to want to give back -- and you know exactly how to do it. MONDAY, APRIL 6, 2020 YOUR BIRTHDAY by Stella Wilder Born today, you are extremely capable, but you’re never one to “show off” simply for the sake of showing off. Rather, you always seem to have a plan in mind that is intended to benefit not only yourself but those around you as well -- near and far. You are generous, thoughtful and always on the lookout for ways to better your own situation and that of others, particularly those who cannot help themselves. When it comes to understanding just what you are capable of, you are thor- ough, realistic and able to manage your skills and opportunities quite well. TUESDAY, APRIL 7 ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- You can be quite facile as you work out a problem con- cerning friends or family members. Maneuverability and nimble thinking are key. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Your pow- ers of analysis will surely serve you well today as you begin to expand your mind to fit a situation that is just now surfacing. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- That which seems clear and simple is likely to prove rather opaque when you examine it closely. This isn’t something you can sort out alone. CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- Experience is the basis of much of your decision-making today, but in one situation at least you’ll lean more heavily on an uncommon instinct. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- You feel as though you are growing and evolving at this time, and yet there is something of your past that you want to carry with you. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- You can take a liberal or conservative view of certain key developments today, but whichever it is, you must be willing to face key facts. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- Your imme- diate environment could use a once-over today. You may choose, while you’re organiz- ing and cleaning, to do some necessary rear- ranging. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- All signs say that you are headed in the right direction -- but you harbor certain doubts that must be addressed. Get someone’s input. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) -- You have a chance to become more directly involved in something being organized by a friend or co-worker. Don’t try to take over, however! CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- You are tempted to make a permanent break from the kinds of things you’ve done in the past. This change must be made from deep within. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- Someone close to you may be content looking at things in a general way, but you’re not satisfied until you’ve explored all the finer details. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- You’re eager to be part of a group today -- which suits your Pisces nature perfectly. What must you do to present yourself in the best light?

No.: OR-20-879773-BB Reference is made to that certain deed made by, THOMAS H. AD- AMS AND KIMBERLY K. ADAMS, HUSBAND AND WIFE, AS TENANTS BY THE ENTIRETY as Grantor to ABSTRACT & TITLE COMPANY, as trustee, in favor of MORTGAGE ELECTRONIC REGISTRATION SYSTEMS, INC., AS NOMINEE FOR MORT- GAGEIT, INC., ITS SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS, as Beneficiary, dated 9/24/2007, recorded 9/28/2007, in official records of UNION County, Oregon as fee/file/instrument/microfilm/reception number 20075483 and subsequently assigned or transferred by operation of law to Midfirst Bank covering the following described real property situated in said County, and State. APN: 2020R16438 03S3809BB 16438 LOT 35 IN EAGLE CAP ESTATES, AN ADDITION TO THE CITY OF LA GRANDE, UNION COUNTY, OREGON, ACCORDING TO THE PLAT RECORDED DECEMBER 6, 1993, IN PLAT CABI- NET “A”, SLIDES 344 AND 345, UNION COUNTY RECORDS. Com- monly known as: 2506 EAST M AVENUE, LA GRANDE, OR 97850 The undersigned hereby certifies that based upon business records there are no known written assignments of the trust deed by the trustee or by the beneficiary, except as recorded in the records of the county or counties in which the above described real property is sit- uated. Further, no action has been instituted to recover the debt, or any part thereof, now remaining secured by the trust deed, or, if such action has been instituted, such action has been dismissed except as permitted by ORS 86.752(7). Both the beneficiary and the trustee have elected to sell the said real property to satisfy the obligations secured by said trust deed and notice has been recorded pursuant to Section 86.752(3) of Oregon Revised Statutes. There is a default by grantor or other person owing an obligation, performance of which is secured by the trust deed, or by the successor in interest, with respect to provisions therein which authorize sale in the event of such provision. The default for which foreclosure is made is grantor’s failure to pay when due the following sum: TOTAL REQUIRED TO REINSTATE: $10,238.14 TOTAL REQUIRED TO PAYOFF: $132,872.85 Because of interest, late charges, and other charges that may vary from day-to-day, the amount due on the day you pay may be greater. It will be necessary for you to contact the Trustee before the time you tender reinstatement or the payoff amount so that you may be advised of the exact amount you will be required to pay. By reason of the default, the beneficiary has declared all sums owing on the obligation secured by the trust deed immediately due and payable, those sums being the following, to- wit: The install- ments of principal and interest which became due on 8/1/2019, and all subsequent installments of principal and interest through the date of this Notice, plus amounts that are due for late charges, delinquent property taxes, insurance premiums, advances made on senior liens, taxes and/or insurance, trust- ee’s fees, and any attorney fees and court costs arising from or associated with the beneficiaries efforts to protect and pre- serve its security, all of which must be paid as a condition of reinstatement, including all sums that shall accrue through re- instatement or pay-off. Nothing in this notice shall be construed as a waiver of any fees owing to the Beneficiary under the Deed of Trust pursuant to the terms of the loan documents. Whereof, notice hereby is given that QUALITY LOAN SERVICE CORPORA- TION OF WASHINGTON, the undersigned trustee will on 7/2/2020 at the hour of 1:00 PM, Standard of Time, as established by section 187.110, Oregon Revised Statues, At the Front Entrance to the Union County Courthouse, located at 1105 K Avenue, La Grande, OR 97850 County of UNION, State of Oregon, sell at public auction to the highest bidder for cash the interest in the said de- scribed real property which the grantor had or had power to convey at the time of the execution by him of the said trust deed, together with any interest which the grantor or his successors in interest ac- quired after the execution of said trust deed, to satisfy the foregoing obligations thereby secured and the costs and expenses of sale, in- cluding a reasonable charge by the trustee. Notice is further given that any person named in Section 86.778 of Oregon Revised Stat- utes has the right to have the foreclosure proceeding dismissed and the trust deed reinstated by payment to the beneficiary of the entire amount then due (other than such portion of said principal as would not then be due had no default occurred), together with the costs, trustee’s and attorney’s fees and curing any other default complained of in the Notice of Default by tendering the performance required under the obligation or trust deed, at any time prior to five days be- fore the date last set for sale. Other than as shown of record, neither the beneficiary nor the trustee has any actual notice of any person having or claiming to have any lien upon or interest in the real prop- erty hereinabove described subsequent to the interest of the trustee in the trust deed, or of any successor in interest to grantor or of any lessee or other person in possession of or occupying the property, except: Name and Last Known Address and Nature of Right, Lien or Interest THOMAS ADAMS 2506 EAST M AVENUE LA GRANDE, OR 97850 Original Borrower KIMBERLY ADAMS 2506 EAST M AV- ENUE LA GRANDE, OR 97850 Original Borrower For Sale Informa- tion Call: 800-280-2832 or Login to: www.auction.com In con- struing this notice, the singular includes the plural, the word “grantor” includes any successor in interest to this grantor as well as any other person owing an obligation, the performance of which is secured by the trust deed, and the words “trustee” and “beneficiary” include their respective successors in interest, if any. Pursuant to Oregon Law, this sale will not be deemed final until the Trustee’s deed has been issued by QUALITY LOAN SERVICE CORPORATION OF WASHINGTON. If any irregularities are discovered within 10 days of the date of this sale, the trustee will rescind the sale, return the buy- er’s money and take further action as necessary. If the sale is set aside for any reason, including if the Trustee is unable to convey title, the Purchaser at the sale shall be entitled only to a return of the monies paid to the Trustee. This shall be the Purchaser’s sole and exclusive remedy. The purchaser shall have no further recourse against the Trustor, the Trustee, the Beneficiary, the Beneficiary’s Agent, or the Beneficiary’s Attorney.

As required by law, you are hereby notified that a negative credit report reflecting on your credit record may be submitted to a credit report agency if you fail to fulfill the terms of your credit obligations. With- out limiting the trustee’s disclaimer of representations or war- ranties, Oregon law requires the trustee to state in this notice that some residential property sold at a trustee’s sale may have been used in manufacturing methamphetamines, the chemical components of which are known to be toxic. Prospective pur- chasers of residential property should be aware of this poten- tial danger before deciding to place a bid for this property at the trustee’s sale.
