Wow-these past few weeks have flown by so fast. As much as I'm looking forward to being close to home, I'm really going to miss the people and the mountains here. The last weekend here, we went hiking at the lava beds just south of Klamath falls. All these caves and formed by hot lava.
These are some main things I've picked up about Oregon or love about Oregon:
1. I LOVE the cascades-they are amazing!
2. The Redwoods and the coast
3. When I went to New England there were so many words or phrases that we never use in the Midwest-not so much true on the West coast. People from all over the country live in Oregon. Only about 1 in 5 patients actually grew up on Oregon.
4. West of the cascades people are more 'liberal' and 'hippi-ish' and the ranchers and farmers live east of the cascades and are in general more conservative. In general, Oregon is more new agish in mentality.
5. Medical necessity of pot is legal in Oregon. There are so many abuses of drugs and people just wanting to be served instead of doing work to heal themselves mentality.
