Oregon, is a state located in the north-west part of the U.S. The big difference from Oregon and California is that Oregon is alot greener, with more trees. On the down-side, it's almost immpossible to move there and find a job, if you are not from Oregon. It's a great place to retire though. You can forget about the rat race of the big city. Oregon is the kind of place where you can take in the scenery, and enjoy a good vacation. The only exeption being Portland.

My Grandparents retired in Oregon, and I made a point to visit them every year. They lived in Grants Pass, a small town in south Oregon. It's a nice place, with big trees, nice weather, and friendly people. There is not a whole lot to do in Grants Pass, it's alot more laid-back than California, and other more urban locations, but there is a movie theater, Wall Mart, and other big-name stores, so it's a typical American town.

The great thing about Grants Pass is not so much the town, but the outdoors, fresh air, and great scenery. You will see alot of deer, rabits, and other North American animals. Alot of times they will come right up to your front porch.

An anual boat race is held in Grants Pass in river, I don't remember the exact date, so you might want to look it up before you visit, if you would like to see it. There is also some good fishing along that river in Grants Pass. I am shure hunting is a popular sport in Grants Pass also.

If you are in the area, or in North California, take a visit, it's a great place to vacation.
