Portland Oregon is a fun city

Last Saturday I was showing some out of town buyers that sold their home in California and are currently living in temporary living quarters, shopping for the perfect home. We were looking for a home really close to Forest Park, Washington Park and in the direction of Sauvie's Island.
They turned to me and said, "you know, Portland Oregon is really a fun city"! I said to them, what do you mean? Well, many of the areas we have been looking, have everything we are looking for. Close walk to grocery stores, parks, hiking trails, walking paths and library's.
They went on to tell me about what they have done since they moved to Portland Oregon. They have joined a walking/hiking club. This club does many different hike/walks. Sometimes they go to Washington Park, sometimes they go to Forest Park, or they just walk through downtown Portland Oregon and see the sites and learn more about the city.
They also joined a group where they can learn more about more serious hikes and last month they hiked to the top of Mt. Hood. Next Summer they plan to tackle one of the Three Sisters and also go white water river rafting.
I have lived in Portland Oregon all of my life. I take great pleasure in showing buyers homes all over the city. When I hear about the new "life changing" experiences my buyers take on, it stimulates me to learn even more about all of the different adventures are in the City of Roses.
