It may have rained almost everyday I was in Oregon, but that didn't stop us from shopping, playing in the yard, exercising, watching movies, eating, and playing games. 

According to this link

 I'm headed back to the 4th happiest city in the America.  With finals looming 2 weeks down the road, I'm not sure that I'm going to feel the happiness bug for a few weeks....

  2. I just commented to the family that I had no idea Portland was the unhappiest city. Matt said, "You didn't know that? I've known that my whole life." I guess they keep that info from to those who live there. They wouldn't want to burst our bubble! Glad you enjoyed.
