Leaving Tampa Soon

[Allblues555]

My wife just got a Veterinary residency (she is interning in Tampa) at Dove Lewis Hospital in Portland, OR.

We are moving on June 30.

Oregon is a cool place. Went up there last summer to see a friend who was interning there.

Wow, congrats!

Nice, another Blues fan here in Portland. You can join the club which consists of NW Dave and myself:-)

You'll probably enjoy the fact we have no humidity nor bugs.

I just moved from tampa to dallas over this past summer.

It sucks living in a city with a basketball team again. X_x

[Blues Fan in SF]

I need to take a trip up to Oregon one of these days. I've never been there, even though I've been in California for almost 12 years now...

We have special lodging & dining rates for Red Wing haters up this way.

Once the season ends you can have Tek Janssen pull you up this way in the rickshaw.

The clinic is downtown, by where 405 crosses the river. What's a good neighborhood to live in nearby? Vancouver, WA?

I sent you a pm with some PDX info. Hope it helps.

Sounds good. We might have to stop and beat some ass on the way up there, but I'm pretty sure Janssen can average around 30-40 miles per day...if we leave now, we'll be up there in April

We can use Janssen as sort of a roadside attraction. We can charge people money for the chance to fight him. I don't think he's got much going on in the near future - so why don't go go ahead and leave this week.

Love this area.

Best decision me and Mrs Donut ever made.

Been here almost 3 years.

Miss good pizza and easy access to Toasted Ravs.....

Awesome! My company sponsors Dove Lewis and gives many donations. In fact a guy who works for me sets up our donations every year.

Portland is a great city. Very accessible and many things to do. That location is a great part of town.

Seriously, PM me with any questions you have. Or I can give you my email as well. I absolutely love this area.

I'm sensing a Blues Hockey party this coming fall.

I saw on t.v. that there's a lot of adolecent vagrants in Portland.

What kind of vagrants?

I know there was an issue with teen runaways awhile back and there was a documentary on it. But honestly, I'm in the city alot and it is the safest city I know.

They were peaceful, hippie, vagrants... mostly addicted to Heroin.

I heard it was ground zero for the meth culture of the 80's and 90's.


But what I want to know is are there any colleges and universities of note? I can't seem to find anything but some Catholic parochial and small technical colleges.

I can't get work at either of these.

Not sure what subject you are looking for, but here's a quick list:
OHSU is the medical school.
Portland State (PSU) - big university downtown
Pacific University - famed for their physical therapy program
University of Portland - private
Reed College
Lewis and Clark College
George Fox University

OSU and OU also have some extension in the area as does WSU in Vancouver.

Let me know your subject. My gf graduated at PSU and currently works at OHSU.

[Portland Blues]

I'd think the ones to target would be PSU, Reed or Lewis & Clark.

No hippy vagrants in my neighborhood. Hippies that drive Volvos - yes:-)

[barnburner]

I heard a rumour that the entire population of Detroit was going to move to Portland,Oregon...
