Here's a pic of homes along the Oregon Coast taken a few days ago...a ritzy area called Gleneden beach. To see more of the recent weather damage, click here and surf around a bit:

Whoops...couldn't save and download the pic. Click on "coastal flooding" under the pics column to view a slide show.
Politics here are far left, so if you move to Oregon, be sure to be willing to attach a mileage measuring (sure...they say that's all it will do) GPS unit to your car. The pilot program is already in place for doing this to every car in the state. The recent election just re-elected those who support this....and all three branches of Oregon government are controlled by partisan Democrats.
The day Oregon tells me that I have to install one of these on my Porsche is the day I pull the plates and sell the car. Either that, or I'll move to either Idaho or Nevada.
