Miss Emma is right abt OR.I take exception to crossing the border and you smell the difference.Maybe at one time it was that way because this part of CA was industry .So it may have stunk.Than there was little problem abt the spotted owl and the tree huggers etc.so now we have a 12 percent unemployment .But it doesn't stink .Well anyway no worse than anywhere else.OR does look and smell good.

Big Marionberry berries (especially that I like), the seals and the whales passing through. And, you can pick wild everbearing blackberries, frr for the picking. And, Mt Hood that is snow capped most of the year, and close enough to Mt St Helens to see the active volcano with videos as to when it erupted in 1980, beautiful flowers almost year round, cool weather, and like one lady said, when you cross the border into Oregon, you can breathe the difference. I've lived here so long I don't notice that part anymore. And oh yes, you don't pump your own gas. All of this and all the beautiful scenery.
