My fellow Oregonian's intro post caught my eye today, so here is one more saying Hello!

I'm from the Eastern side of the state. I'm a 39 yr old Mom of 3 boys, have been married for 14.5 years to a pretty great guy (he puts up with me!).

I have a long church background, I started going to church with my great great aunt when I was 5 or so. She played piano for her Baptist church and I spent quite a bit of time with her. She definitely gave me a firm foundation. She went home to be with Jesus when I was in the 5th grade....I am so thankful to know that I will see her again!

Since then I have bounced around a bit, finally getting "settled" in the Pentecostal branch as a teen when my Mom got saved and started going to church. Right now our church of preference is a 4 Square. My oldest has become involved with the Youth Group there, and I am really really thankful to have such good people in his life. :)

I'm excited to join the community and talk with other believers. It seems like everyone I run into online are of the opposite belief system....I am still overwhelmed (though maybe a little less so after 12+ years online) that there are so many who reject, and even mock, the Lord and Christianity. It shouldn't surprise me, but it does. Anyway, like I said, I am glad to be here. :):)

I like Eastern and middle Oregon a good deal. I can't remember the name of the eastern town where I've stayed a couple of times while traveling. I'm guessing Ontario, but it could have been Baker City. Whichever it was had a nice Sizzler restaurant right off the highway that I went to when staying in or passing through town.

Welcome to RR!

A quick question:

Fact or fiction. Do Oregonians really dislike people from California? I used to live in California before my family moved to N.C. Before we moved here, Oregon and Washington were two other places we were considering.

Anyway, I hope you enjoy the fun and fellowship here.

God bless! :wave

I moved here from California about 2 1/2 years ago, and I haven't had a problem. I've heard some complaining that Californians drove the housing cost up, because they are able to sell in CA and buy in Oregon with cash. The population of Oregon grew a lot because of California migration, but overall the people here are very friendly and down to earth. I'm in a small farming community. :hat
