This thread is a place to say what area of Oregon/Washington you live in.
Also a great way to get some local meet ups.

I live in Aloha, a suburb of Beaverton.
That's right I live in a suburb of a suburb.

I am also in Eugene. Live near what is refered to as "Four Corners" It is where 6th St and 7th St merge and become Hwy 99. go over the railroad tracks with a bridge and have a 4-way intersection with a light at Roosevelt. Not quite the Bethel / Danebo area, but close. About a 1/4 mile from Fairfield Elementary (Due North). Not a bad area of town, lots of low income housing and families. Wal-Mart, Winco, Bi-Mart, Albertsons, Target, Home Depot, Jerry's Home Inprovement, Carls Jr. Mc Donalds, Wendys, Dairy Queen, Staples, Office Depot, Fred Meyer. All are within about 2-5 miles of here.

@ K-Rock-InC I am also the Anime Friday guy with 2 terabytes of downloaded fansubs, so if you live in Eugene/Springfield/Junction City area LOOK ME UP! We watch anime every Friday night starting at 7:00pm. Pretty much you name it, I have it. PM or e-Mail me if interested.

I live in the downtown Portland area most of the time but usually half of the week I'm on the outskirts of the Portland/Beaverton area near the Sunset Transit Center Max stop. I have no close cosplay friends but my cosplay leader and she's always busy >: I would love to meet some more people in the area who are into...that kind of thing...so I'm not lonely when I work on my stuff.

Beaverton is actually the 4th largest city in Oregon by population IIRC. I believe it goes:

Portland
Eugene
Salem
Beaverton
Hillsboro
Gresham
Medford

And I have no clue after that. Pretty much everything else is really small.

Anyway, I live really near tofutakeout, even though we've never actually met (at least not that I know of).

Getting the idea yet? That is about What? 1/8 of my 2 terabytes? Yeah, it is a lot.

Dude....You live within walking distance of my freaking house. XD I'm the purple house on Royal. Not the light purple one across from Fairfield, but the dark-ish purple one next to the mint green house. Usually we have a red Pontiac G6 parked in the driveway, and a red Ford Focus sometimes, and our powder blue Ford Mustang.

I'm gonna need some license plate numbers. Wavelengths would be handy too, but I can do without...I'm still waiting on those GPS coordinates too.

There's about three houses that are purple on the whole stretch of Royal. And mine is probably the LEAST gaudy of them all...

I thought you said you lived near the Springfield / Eugene border.

We are nowhere near it. Most people would say the border is I-5. We are pretty close to Beltline road though. Maybe you are thinking of it? Anyway, yeah Royal puts you within walking distance. Just walk south down Fairfield till you hit Elmira Rd. cross the street and go down Anton Ct. Turn right into the first cul-de-sac, and I am the tan colored house with the big deck in front. Gold Toyota Corolla in the driveway and a silver Pontiac Vibe parked in front. Take you about 8 minutes to walk from Fairfield Elementary. So can I expect to see you next Friday?

Well the border is probably different to me then, because I count it as when I see the sign that says 'Welcome to Eugene' and once I'm on the other side I instantly place myself in the next closest town for comfort measures. xD

But yeah, I'll so drag my friends down there if we get up the motivation to do anything... xD

Christmas Valley, http://maps.google.com/maps?hl=en&tab=wl Well, they do have things all lit up likes it's Christmas, even when it isn't, like in October. How do I know? My wife and I spent 10 hours driving Lake county then. !10 hours, and we really didn't stop for much more than gas, just drove. It was very scenic, just sparse. But I bet you would know how to shoot guns, and ride either horses or off road vehicles of one kind or another. lol
