Description Neighborhood About Us Destination

Description

Our two story house is located in the west hills above the city of Portland. It is quiet above the city, yet it is an easy bus, bike or walk into the city. We enjoy sitting out on the wrap around porch in front or sitting out on the large patio in back where we can lounge in the hot tub or swing in the hammock. The mountains , the Columbia River Gorge, and Oregon coast beach are both just an hour away. There is easy access to the beautiful parks, the river that runs through the center of town, and to the central entertainment center of the city.

Neighborhood

This is an older neighborhood with sidewalks, minimal traffic, and many pedestrians. There is excellent bus service two blocks away into downtown. The elementary school is a few blocks away. There is a neighborhood cafe for lunch and dinner. THis is a very safe neighborhood for children.

About Us

My wife and I have lived here for ten years. We have one son in high school and one in college. We spend many weekends at the Columbia River Gorge which has its world famous windsurfing. We enjoy sailing on the Willamette River, walking in the hills, and hiking in the adjoining wilderness areas. We are health professions in our 50s who are looking forward to being able to travel again once our children are in college.

Destination

Our sons are both graduating from school in June 2009. We are planning a three month family vacation at that time to a warm location. We are mainly thinking about Europe at this time since that is what we know the best. We have enjoyed travel in Greece before, have never been to Scandanavia and enjoy adventure. A windsurfing location would be a plus.
