My dad and I decided to take a trip up to Portland to start getting an idea of where I am going to live when I get up here, to do some job searching, etc. We came up on Sunday March 9th and are staying in the Waterfront Marriott.
That is a picture at night right out the hotel window, so I would say that it was a pretty decent view! Well when I originally planned this trip, i expected to have gotten some responses from some of the companies which I have applied to so that I could get some in town interviews. Well, this wasn't God's plan I guess because I haven't heard from a single company yet. This trip has been more of a familiarizing trip of the Portland/Tigard area, which has been a lot of fun.
This is a picture from Multnomah Falls, about 30 miles outside of Portland. It was gorgeous there and just showed me how many adventures I am going to have while living out here. On the housing side of things, there are a few interesting possibilities that have popped up. First, there is a young married couple named Paul and Kirsten who moved up to Tigard already to help us start the church. They have said that I could move in there for a couple months while I job search if I would like, which could be a great option. I am still figuring out what to do, there may be another house I can stay in for a few months as well. I am just excited to get up here and get started with everything. I move in two weeks (depending on a few circumstances, may be moved back a couple weeks) but I am both excited, and a little nervous of the unknown.
