Live and work in WA if you can, no income tax. Then shop in Oregon, where there is no sales tax......as long as you stop at your local Department of Revenue to pay those taxes!!!! Yeah......

Haha! True! I am kind of loving that a price tag is actually what I'm paying for!Live and work in WA if you can, no income tax. Then shop in Oregon, where there is no sales tax......as long as you stop at your local Department of Revenue to pay those taxes!!!! Yeah......
Washington County is supposed to be good for getting a CHL but I do believe you will need a CHL class certificate no matter which county.Good to know, I have to put in my CHL paper work this week. Hoping doesn't take forever.
I'll probably go online just for the time saving factor. Thanks for link.Washington County is supposed to be good for getting a CHL but I do believe you will need a CHL class certificate no matter which county.

Weird, isn't it? It took some getting used to because I always assumed I needed 10% more money than the tag said I needed. Welcome! I spent some time in TX for work and liked it a lot of it. But the cooler weather, mountains, and sea breeze is something I can't live without.Haha! True! I am kind of loving that a price tag is actually what I'm paying for!
Wow I guess it's going to be hello and goodbye.Can we not turn my welcome thread into your personal complaint thread about cyclists, thank you. How about you say hello to me before hijacking it.
It's really weird! I usually walk around with change in my pocked as a habit for tax. I'll always love TX, it's home, but I think I'm gonna fall in love with the absolute endless natural beauty here.Weird, isn't it?

If you're not real familiar with the NW, you may be shocked to find that you'll find high desert east of the Cascades. First time I sat on a cactus was a self correcting problem!
What would be appropriate is you apologizing. And introducing yourself like everyone else has done. Don't make me out to be a bad guy.Wow I guess it's going to be hello and goodbye.
Haha! You sold me! You won't catch me on skis… too old for that I'll break a hip.It's true that you could snow ski on Mt. Hood in July in the morning and walk on Cannon Beach in the afternoon.
There's my Chamber of Commerce spiel.
I love fun facts!Oregon Fun Facts :
Outside of the Willamette Valley, Oregon is politically conservative.
The Cascade Mountain Range creates a "rain shadow".
It can be raining in Portland and just overcast on the "East Side".
The temperature on the East Side is often 10 or more degrees warmer than Portland.
The temperature at the Coast is often 10 or more degrees cooler than Portland.
Parts of the East Side will remind you of Texas.
Thank you for the suggestions, I will check them out!
I heard Beaverton is a good place to put down roots if one wants the Portland area options without being in Mult. County.
Thank you for warm welcome.
Well, if you do want to move out here, my wife and I are selling our starter home (townhouse) in less than a year .I wouldn't.
Traffic is a beech.
I lived in Aloha for years.
I've since moved to Vancouver, WA......like it here better.
I will keep that in mind! Although wifey probably gonna have more say on that end than myself…Well, if you do want to move out here, my wife and I are selling our starter home (townhouse) in less than a year .
Traffic does suck in all of Portland and the surrounding area. I worked in Tigard for a bit and took the MAX to Beaverton Transit Center to then hop on the WES to get to Tigard. During rush hours, it was far and away faster. Getting to Sunset Transit isn't too bad a distance from the city taking the MAX - which is what we do these days (park it for free at Sunset and ride in).
Thank you, kindlyWelcome from the gun-totin' old broad contingent.
You're the only one here going out of their way to not say hello and be quite rude, so doesn't look to be the normal response to an introduction thread to me.You want me to apologize, I'd be more than happy to apologize when it's something to apologize for.. I was going with the flow of the thread, people do that here on this forum; you're gonna have to get used to it.
But nonetheless welcome, best of luck acclimating to the weather here.
