We realize that the climate is different up there, but there are positives and negatives to every place....our main concern is finding a nice place to raise our children. I am originally from Connecticut, so the idea of trading in palm trees and beaches for lush landscape and forest is not unappealing to me.

McMinnville, Newberg, Sherwood - should all be fine.
What's up for work - Evergreen Air ??
The area is very nice there. The ocean nearby is pretty nice too.
