Oregon, home of our next sit (Summer 2011)
It is official – our next sit is in Portland, Oregon (beginning in late June). We have been dreaming of the Pacific Northwest for a while now. Neither of us have actually been to Oregon, but we continue to hear great things. Have you been? If so, we would love to hear from you as well!
We have a little more than a month between sits (this one here in Tennessee ends in May) and are unsure what to do with it. Our first choice is Europe (England, Italy, and Amsterdam) but I would have to find us more sits before we can justify a trip like that. So, I am on it…looking for long term sits (preferably in OR, WA, or NorCal) that begin right around October 2011.
If I do line up more sits on the Pacific side, we will most likely road trip it out to MA to get the rest of our belongings from storage, and fly to Europe from the Atlantic side. If not, we are thinking we will take our time driving from here to there (TN to OR), stopping to see loved ones in Colorado and California for sure. Hopefully I will firm up the deets in the next week or so.
Please leave a comment if you have anything you would like to share about Portland, or anything, really…
I do know about Portland, Oregon! I love it there. I’ve only ever been when the weather was just perfect, so I’m not sure about the rainy season (is there a rainy season? I think so). I think you will be very happy in Portland. They have great Ethiopian food too!
Yup – I hear there is indeed a rainy season : ) But everyone is telling me that summertime is splendiferous in Portland. And Paul is from England (rain, anyone?) and I am a rain worshipper so I believe we will do well there. If not, California is just down the coast a ways…Ooh, can’t wait to try the Ethiopian food! Thanks, Em!
