You might look into some "Green Technology" degrees. Those are supposed to be big around here. Couple that with your Geology knowledge and the wind farms might be interested in hiring you.

I hadn't thought about alternative energy, but that may be the perfect solution! I'll definitely look into degrees in that field as well as the job market associated with it.

Oh, and thanks for the heads up on the teaching route, looks like I'd have to pursue teaching at the high school or middle school level (which would likely require more undergraduate courses in education), so I'll keep that in mind as I investigate these options.

As far as visiting Portland is concerned I was thinking about CouchSurfing. A few of my friends couch surfed around San Fran and had a blast, does anyone have any alternative opinions to this method of travel??
