I live right here in the Willamette Valley and have seen this wine industry blossom in the last 35-40 years. They do make some incredible wine and it has changed the scenery dramatically!

Jessand cheryl, thank you so much for the compliment. We are planning on retiring there. I'm just sorry I hadn't discovered it earlier in my life.

I've been in the same house for the past 45 years. I live on a hill with a lot of view, have all kinds of wildlife in my yard (just saw a doe with two spotted fawns under the apple tree) and birds galore! It's a beautiful state! I am a painter, and seeing all the beautiful stuff around me makes me want to paint! Maybe we'll meet one day. Who knows! My website is www.jessanderson.com if you are at all interested in art. Have a wonderful day!

Great series. #3 my favorite. The Umpqua Valley is a great place for scenes and the wine is fantastic.

Stay away from the Portland area at least 100 miles.

Thanks Ski, some parts of portland are messed up and the homeless situation is a definite issue, but it nis really not that bad. The food (restaurants) are amazing amazing as is the Columbia river. I thoroughly enjoy my visits with my family there.
