I loved Oregon, only stayed 3 years before returning to Arizona, could not take the 340 days of rain, and cutting grass 2x a week.
Nice creek.

You should have come over to the east side of Oregon! A lot less rain and a lot of gold country! Not to mention hunting, hiking and many other outdoor activities.
Great photos OV!

Bend probably would have been the better choice for me, but I went to Springfield.

Bend would have been better! But, Bend is in the middle of the state from where I live!
