Oregon State Parks.

Oregon may have once complained about Californians moving to their state. But now they're stampeding to find homes for their senior years.

Portland is the home of Intel and the associated industries involved in the high tech industry.

The coast is where most of my friends are moving. Small towns with names like Coos Bay, Bandon, and the cheese famous Tillamook.

Klamath Falls is the first name in developments.

What I don't hear about are the more eastern, drier, and colder towns like Burns, Ontario, La Grande, and that name that stands for cold, Pendleton.

I'll get photos and information up as soon as possible. In the mean time I recommend visiting:

David Scott Robertson, the son of Douglas County Commissioner Doug Robertson, has allegedly violated conditions of his probation and is back in jail.
David Robertson, 22, was arrested Thursday on suspicion of probation violation. Coos County Assistant District Attorney Shani Krumholz said Monday his probation officer told Krumholz Robertson had allegedly violated about 10 conditions of his probation.
"One of the allegations is additional drug use," Krumholz said.
She said she is waiting for a report from Robertson's probation officer to provide her more information.
Robertson pleaded guilty Jan. 13 to two counts of first-degree theft, two counts of second-degree burglary and one count of unlawful possession of heroin. He was sentenced to 24 months of probation.
A Douglas County Circuit Court judge also imposed various probation conditions that included successfully completing a drug treatment program and not taking intoxicants or associating with people who do.

Crouched over a row of fava beans in Phoenix Charter School's Learning Garden, Justin Mehling plucked and squashed hungry cucumber beetles during class on Monday.
Until recently, the Canyonville freshman, who should have been a sophomore this year, struggled with his school work.
Dyslexia and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder worked against him, making reading and writing nearly impossible for the young man.
About a year ago, Mehling began commuting to the Phoenix Charter School in Roseburg, where he was able to work in the sustainable agriculture program as well as get back on track for graduation with his general education studies.
"I've just been loving it ever since," he said, explaining the attention teachers devote to helping him understand material and overcome his learning disabilities was just what he needed. "They take it slow with me here."
Mehling's story is one of many at the Roseburg alternative school, which serves seventh- through 12
