Hello from Oregon, USA - From Ohio to Oregon

in #introduction8 years ago (edited)

Hello,

I joined just a few days ago. I live in the State of Oregon in the USA. I am 49 years old and have a wonderful wife and two little boys. The boys are immense joys for my wife and I.

I grew up on a small farm in rural Ohio and experienced all you would expect from such an upbringing i.e. thunderstorms, farm animals, lightning bugs, locust shells on trees, baling hay, snapping turtles, a few blizzards and, so much more.

I attended Denison University in Central Ohio in the late 80s and earned a bachelor's degree in Sociology/Anthropology. I have canoed from Chillicothe, Ohio to New Orleans, LA., have been a state employee in three different states, have traveled a great deal, etc.

I have lived in the Pacific NW since the early 1990s. The first few years in Seattle were quite an adjustment as it is quite different from where I grew up. I have hiked, scuba dived, have seen wild Orca and Humpback whales and, so much more. I have lived in Renton, Kent and, Seattle, WA. In Oregon I have lived in Beaverton and currently reside in Hillsboro.

I enjoy writing and look forward to learning more here on Steemit...and am grateful for all it offers. This also is fun! Thanks everyone very much!
