My original plan had been to criss-cross the country to see every amazing sight America had to offer, that plan worked well for various weeks… I had bought an RV plus sold my condo so I had funds plus mobility.
- I regularly appreciated driving, so I don’t mind spending my afternoons on the open road.
I got to meet a lot of interesting people along the way! My plan was derailed when I stopped in Portland, Oregon, because after a few afternoons here I lost any desire to leave. I don’t want to be dramatic plus call Portland a paradise, but for myself and others it was damn near perfect, however was there a person involved? Well, maybe that had something to do with it, too. I fell in love with Hope just love I fell for the town of Portland, however hope is the day manager at a single of the multiple excellent cannabis dispensaries in Portland. I picked her cannabis shop out of pure luck, plus it changed the course of my life, however not that many of afternoons later I went back for more cannabis, plus mentioned that I was about to move on, plus wanted to take a shot at asking her on a date. We went to take in a local Portland punk band the next evening. I stayed around Portland for another week, just for another date. There was regularly something fun to do in downtown Portland, plus so multiple great museums plus art galleries, too. Before long, I realized I was here for good, both for Portland plus for Hope.
