Hey Newfisher, Welcome from another Oregonian. Being a native Oregonian we know it is one of (probably) the best place in the country, we just have to keep it quite on the internet especially when everyone else is suffering with hurricanes, heat waves, etc. In exchange, we just have to put up with a little dampness for most of the year in exchange for some awesome summers. I too have a burb, but mine isn't in as good a shape as your's. Do you ever get to McMinnville? We are having a "cruise the gut" weekend of August 24 25? Just google it for a video of last year. It was pretty cool. Welcome!!
