Oregon and Washington are absolutely beautiful. If I had a choice of anywhere in the whole WORLD I would pick one of those states. The people up there are good folks too. In Oregon you can go from dry desert to forests and rivers to the mountains and then off to the beach all in one day. Oh yeah and then there is that thing there were you can actually stand and watch two rivers collide, yep collide head on. I know that sounds crazy but if you don't believe me, I did it. check this out.
"Won't you be my neighbor??" Sorry It's been one of those days! Yes, come up to Washington. It is very beautiful up here and we have a wonderful base. A lot of my friends are stationed here and they love it. I do like NC though too
