So……I think the new decision is not to move from our present residence until we find a great job for Barney in Portland. 
I was really gung-ho to move into a new house before next winter, but I think we’re just gonna have to suffer through another winter of wet, streaming windows again so that, if a great job does come up in Portland, we won’t have just moved into a new house here, thereby negating the opportunity to leave state. Whew, that was a long sentence. So, everyone who wants us to move back to Oregon,…..keep your eyes peeled for an awesome new job for Barney. And it’s gonna have to really be something to get him to leave the great job he has here, let me tell you. 
Yeah! Don’t think we haven’t been trying to find a job for Barney, he just keeps turning them all down! We’ll keep up our end of the bargain if you do!
