I Live In Oregon

There is a reason there is a saying "Keep Portland weird"

@ Panda.
Keep Portland wierd is about how this is not a very main stream city,,
not as much coprerate culture,, we like it that way, yo can be however yo like.
BUT as more move here it is getting lost a bit

sounds like you have been there recently..
yeah it is those that live ther ae working hard to hold back against the
Mall People .
money is th problem, al about the cash,, when were you there last?

I lived in Puddle City (AKA Portland, Oregon) for a few years in the 1970s. Still miss it. I canned a lot of wild blackBerry jam there.

Oregon has a few scattered cities with small populations. I think Portland is the biggest city.

What I like about portland is how progressive it is, it certainly is losing its own identity

I wish we had rain down here

You have lots of rain?
