Congratulations!! Best of luck on the move. That’s a HUGE undertaking! I have lots of friends near Portland they say it’s beautiful and there is quite a bit of rain. Check out joy fitness and style she lives out there and is always posting great places to eat, workout and run. She posts great family adventure spots too!
Awesome! I’m so jealous! I think I would love Portland..hoping to get there for vacation sometime early 2013. Good luck to you on the move! I can’t wait to hear about your adventures out there.
Congrats, how exciting! I think you will love Portland! I live in Seattle, and Portland is always my choice for short weekend trips. And definitely on the list of “places I would love to live someday.” Sooo many yummy places to eat, downtown is fabulous and the public transit there is really easy to use!
WOW!!! I’ve been so awful about keeping up with blogs and posting on my own blog since our big move to New England…..Portland is an awesome place! Congrats….even though I never got to meet you up here in New England. So nice it’s another vegan-loving place, like VT 🙂 With good beer too!
I know you are finally closer and we are on the way out! Maybe on one of our trips back we will both be in VT at the same time and we can enjoy a beer somewhere together!
One of my best friends just visited Portland and fell in love with it! I’ve heard it’s an amazing place to live! Excited for you and your new adventure!
CONGRATULATIONS!! Moving across country is fun, and stressful, but mostly fun! Portland seems like it would be a great place to live too – can’t wait to read about your adventures! 🙂
It is stressful especially during the holidays and with such short notice but we are looking forward to it!

Congratulations and so great to change things up! I am a Pacific Northwest Native (Seattle, living in Florida for a few years, but will be settling down in Corvallis, OR in a couple of years. Thank GOODNESS!!!! We miss the PNW!!!). From what you share on your blog, you will fit right in. Healthy lifestyle, foodie culture (especially vegan/plant based), outdoor activities are what the PNW are all about. Looks as if you already have some connections in the blog world. Great! No matter how wonderful, there are always stresses and sadness in moving so far (our 3500 mile trek to FL from Seattle was an unexpected, move-in-a-month affair as well), so if you need any advice, just ask! Good luck and I look forward to hearing of your adventures!
I have friends that live just outside Portland and they LOVE it there. Invest in running rain gear now 😉
Any suggestions for running rain gear?
congrats!! so excited for you!
Woowzer!! Congrats! Here’s to new adventures!!
Thank you!
Congratulations On your new journey in Life.
Congrats on the move! We are looking at Portland as a possible move in a few years!
Thanks!

I can’t wait to share our adventures! We are moving their blind so it will be really interesting to see where life takes us.
Wow – congratulations! That’s so exciting. I bet since Vermont’s been a good fit for you both,
that Oregon will be too.
