    Default Oregon

    Perhaps you wonder why anyone would want to live in a place as crazy/weird/faaarrrrr LEFT as Oregon?

    I found this short video that may answer that question for you:

    My wife and I owned a house in Mosier, OR (between Hood River & The Dalles) high on a bluff overlooking the Columbia River in the Columbia River Gorge from 1989 to 1999. We bought the house with the intent of moving there but life - as it will - got in the way. One of the saddest days of my life was selling our beautiful home. We did get out there 3 or 4 times a year, (my wife's mother lived in the house) and being an avid fly fisher, I adopted the Deschutes River in and around Maupin as my "home river". So, I know why you like Oregon so much.

    We could see Memaloose Island, an Indian burial ground, from our house.
