The Air Force moved us to the Netherlands and then back to Washington. We have resided in Washington since 1979. We are currently from Blaine, WA but right now are in Portland. Now wasn't that a mouthful.<br /><br />Loved your pictures. Have traveled both sides of the mountain and enjoy both sides.<br /><br />Thanks for sharing the pictures.Ali Workentinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10536435759964406148noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3671516400482781757.post-61125601098736571692010-05-24T19:55:17.785-07:002010-05-24T19:55:17.785-07:00Interesting post, Jerry.

It works for us. I am always interested in where people are from as well as where they ve been. I'm just curious by nature.Margie M.https://www.blogger.com/profile/10310100815284895284noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3671516400482781757.post-84077902608716587772010-05-24T10:54:31.914-07:002010-05-24T10:54:31.914-07:00Wonderful album of beautiful Oregon photos!

My late husband was born and raised in Pendleton, and many relatives still live in Oregon. We always enjoyed visiting the state, and I came to love it. My sis-in-law let me use her address in Portland, and she managed my mail for me. I was her 'silent roommate.' When she moved to NM, I changed my domicile to SD, where there's no state income tax. That decision has worked out pretty well for me, and now Don too.<br /><br />Thanks for the lovely photos from a state I also love!Sharon Del Rosariohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11743800968323230586noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3671516400482781757.post-2826097134203524322010-05-24T04:09:37.168-07:002010-05-24T04:09:37.168-07:00Have never been to the State of Oregon but have he...Have never been to the State of Oregon but have heard so much about it over the years. Unless we go fulltiming some day or are ever able to break away from here for a few months in the summer it's not likely we'll ever get to Oregon. Just not weather compatable for the months we travel.Al Bossencehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04307619781955351484noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3671516400482781757.post-10463955488403417302010-05-23T23:43:16.768-07:002010-05-23T23:43:16.768-07:00Loved your Oregon pictures!

Hood when we were on I-84 on Friday, but it was rainy and cloudy and we couldn't see the mountain. <br /><br />We regularly camp at Champoeg State Park, so enjoyed that picture, too! Some day I'll have to learn how to use Picasa.Carol Khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09428623116947826625noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3671516400482781757.post-90393783009101325082010-05-23T21:34:17.767-07:002010-05-23T21:34:17.767-07:00Oregon is a beautiful place to be either "fro...Oregon is a beautiful place to be either "from" or "domiciled". Thanks for explaining how you come to have Oregon plates on your vehicles. Since you asked, we are "from" B.C. and "domiciled" in B.C. and that's not likely to change - but, we will be "going to" lots of other places both here in Canada and in the USA. Great pics, too.Rickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16523089898331291694noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3671516400482781757.post-69902790483691214352010-05-23T21:10:50.072-07:002010-05-23T21:10:50.072-07:00Very nice blog.

I thought eastern Oregon was beautiful as well, though.<br /><br />I think asking where a person is from is a way of establishing common ground. "Oh you are from Kentucky - so am I." Or "You are from Georgia - what part? I spent 3 months near Savannah this past year." It's just a way of initiating conversation in my opinion.Gypsyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18052445200220681513noreply@blogger.com
