Zone1 I’m Getting Married!

Juneteenth

We lived in Medford for one year to the day. My husband was recruited there to run his company's engineering department. It is a lovely city. I planted 30 Shreveport rose bushes in our front yard there, then just as they were blooming, he was transferred again to Casper Wyoming where in spite of the cold outside most of the year, the town there has dear hearts and gentle people. The most outstanding things I recall about Medford were sunshine, the Jackson & Perkins Rose paradise, and the Presbyterian Church. Only one year there, but it was so beautiful and an hour's drive to the most fabulously crystal clear Crater Lake. Another short drive would get you to the beautiful Pacific Ocean, the Oregon Coast, and a fabulous light house.

The Shreveport Roses were the most beautiful and sweet grandiflora Roses I ever saw.
It was a joy to see them all bloom dozens of roses apiece. I still miss them, 40 years later.​
Which Medford?
 
Happy to hear you are getting married and moving to Oregon, will you be in the West? Portland, or nearby? Beautiful state indeed, one of the most beautiful states in the country.

If you like gray skies and rain.
 
I'm sure it will be in the west, but that is a decision she will make. I've been there quite a few times when I've been on tour and you're right. The most beautiful area of this country.

Oregon? Lol!
 
They have shitty abusive gun laws.

East or West of the Cascades?

Just like Washington State the West side is Communist and the East side is America.
You should be happy in knowing that once we move there, I will no longer be posting here. Get yer shots in now.
 
Congratulations on the engagement. Just be prepared not to be allowed to make a single decision between now and your wedding day. “Thst looks/sounds lovely sweetie” is a phrase that will serve you well.

In my culture, the women make the decisions. I’m quite used to it and I approve 💯
 
Oregon is just fine, DD. It's a liberal state, and not Idaho.

As soon as I retire, I'm outta here. I've seen it change from being one of least expensive states to live in, to now one that's always in the top five most expensive.
As for Idaho, I would love to see the 'Greater Idaho Movement' actually happen. Yeah, I know it never will, but it would sure be awesome.
