Hi all,
My name is James, you may have seen me on some other forums, but I just joined this one because I will be moving to Portland this fall for school. Jessi and I just got back from Portland this afternoon in fact (by the way, I HATE flying). So, just wanted to say hi and introduce myself. I have been to Oregon on several occasions (Jessi's folks live in Florence) and I just love it there. The climate, the people and all of the new plants! I was amazed at everything coming into bloom. We visited the Japanese gardens, and a garden, can't remember the name in Charleston, which was just beautiful! There is so much to see and do I and I am really looking forward to the move! Also looking forward to new challenges in a new place and new gardening challenges!

See ya around,
James
