Dear Oregon,
You have sheltered us amongst your green trees, played with us in your white mountains, made us sneeze in your gentle valleys, and rocked us to sleep on your powerful-peaceful coastline. You have reconnected us with old friends and given us ever so many more to treasure. We have celebrated life with our family and danced in your rain more than once (and ridden our bikes home in it too). We picked your blueberries by the bushel. You gave Kyle the knowledge and experience he will need as he takes on his career as a physician assistant. You are the birth place of our son. And yet with all this wonder we have decided to depart. We will return to our lake in the mountains. It is with our greatest thanks that we pack our bags.
Love, Emily, Kyle and Jonah
p.s. A very special thank you goes out to John and Ellie Erkkila for their tireless help with our move and selfless support in our decision to move a thousand miles South.
