dreams just might come true

Robert Charles and I have been thinking/dreaming a lot lately.  We have been longing for the the Ocean and mountains... The Northwest is on our minds.  It makes our blood boil.  We ( well, acutally me...) have been doing a TON of research on living in Oregon... In fact, I have been researching non stop for about a month now.  If I can make these things work, then we can make it happen. 

1. Affordable housing
2. Nearby  church building
3. Nearby good school
4. Job(s)

Well, I am happy to announce that I have FINALLY put the puzzle together.  I have found a quiet little historic city that comes with all the above and more.  It is an hour from the ocean and about 20 minutes from a massive national forest and mountains.  Its not as rainy as most of Oregon and there are still tons of things to do there.  Charlie EASILY qualifies for a really nice paying phlebotomy position at the hospital in town.  The local community college is very affordable and on top of that it has all the classes he needs.  There are a TON of houses for rent, that are actually cheaper than Springfield.  And to put the cherry on, it is beautiful and very charming.

So without further adue, I would like to imtroduce my dream place or residency:
Klamath Falls, OR
