If we went to Oregon it would be Burns. Although I have nephew out of
Sandy, and it is really pretty where they are. But has built up so much
since they moved there, gosh I guess over 25 years ago.
He worked for the police dept in San Jose and moved up there and worked for
the Sheriff Dept in Portland. It is a little mountiny area they live in and
is really pretty, but there are so many more houses on the road than used to
be. It all grows so fast.
Louise in Ca.
