aw, thanks everyone! He LOVED that ball (they were all amazed he hadn't destroyed it after a day), and he loved the Pupcorn, it was his first time trying popcorn at all .. its really pretty up there, I cannot believe how cheap it is compared to California too! Here, it costs at least 800k-1million for a newer house on a few acres, there it costs 100-200k .. and it seemed so much cleaner and more environment-friendly there. The drive was SO boring and monotonous though! lol.

Giselle, I saw a Grey Park right off of Highway 5... don't remember the name though . I did hear that Oregon is one of the few states were Greyhound racing is still legal. Personally, I think I'd still prefer lure coursing that's amazing to watch!
