Finding Home

A long time ago I remember someone saying that you have decisions to make in life, like selecting the right job, finding the right partner, and living in the right location.  I fell in love with Oregon the moment I reached the Cascades.  Although I grew up on the south side of Chicago with no mountains or ocean coast in sight, I can’t imagine being far from either at this point.  It took a bit of traveling to find, but now this is home.
