Where The Heck Is Hermiston, Oregon???

So where the heck is Hermiston, Oregon you ask and why does anyone even care? Well, in 2 weeks time this little town is where we will be living. Roger finally got a call from the Oregon Department of Corrections for a job opening. It's not exactly where we wanted to end up in Oregon but we decided to just take it because it has to be better than living in Vegas. This little town in Northeast Oregon has but 16,0000 people. It is a farming community that is supposed to have the best watermellons around. They also boast one of the best pro rodeos in the country. There are 2 rivers that run within a few miles of the town and even though it is kind of off in its own little area it is within a few hours drive of Portland, Spokane, and Seatle. So, Roger has been up there once for an interview and he is going up again this week to do a medical physical and find us a place to live. I, having never been there will be trusting in my husband that this place is a nice town to live in. Lets keep our fingers crossed that we will end up loving this little town. So finally after stupidly leaving our little peace of heaven in Eugene, Oregon and moving to Las Vegas after 4 years of wishing we never moved we are heading back. Yeah! Goodbye hot, ugly, dirty, nasty, expensive, hot, windy, did I mention hot, yucky Vegas!
