Not so much though more than many large cities admittedly. Either way, Oregon is beautiful.

hey, thanks! I'd be driving down from WA state!

Yes. We used to make the drive from my hometown in Oregon to Suquamish every year. The ferry was always one of my favorite parts. Granted I was 12 last time we did that.

I recently checked and that ferry still seems to be in service.....:hangloose:

It's definitely a foodie's town!

McMenamins UFO Festival Thursday–Saturday May 14–16, 2020

Every May, thousands flock to McMinnville, a quiet Willamette Valley town located an hour southwest of Portland, to the famous three-day McMenamins UFO Festival. Second in popularity only to the UFO festival in Roswell, New Mexico, Oregon’s annual celebration features a UFO parade, expert speakers, live (free!) music indoors and out, a 5K run, a pet costume contest, events with the featured speakers, a ‘landing party’ with vendor booths and more. Founded in 1999, this UFO Festival began at the historic McMenamins Hotel Oregon property as a way to honor the famous 1950 Trent sighting in the area, and has evolved into an epic celebration of all things extraterrestrial.

This is still being advertised and even after doing a google search I couldn't find out if it's been canceled or not. Anyone around that area know for sure if it's still on?

I do believe Portland will be the first road trip I'll take when we're allowed to travel freely.........:carride:

Haven't you heard? Oregon is closed as our Governor is a complete idiot. :superfunny:
