      I'm pretty happy, and most people I associate with like Oregon also. I'm betting it's all those easterners who chafe under the yoke of Kate Brown's dictatorship.

        I have the option of going to San Jose - Costa Rica for extended business (90 days) - anybody here have the downlow? Do they have golf in San Jose? How safe? Sounds like fun to me - just the thing to mix up life a bit.

          I've been to Costa Rica twice, once for two weeks and once for a single day off of a cruise ship. The only part of the whole country that I didn't like was the big city of San Jose. If I go to Costa Rica again, I'll be flying in and out of Liberia.

          I loved the smaller towns in the rest of the country. We drove around and saw a lot of it.

We cannot expect to experience the blessing of faith by standing inactive on the sidelines any more than we can experience the benefits of health by sitting on a sofa watching sporting events on television and giving advice to the athletes. And yet for some, “spectator discipleship” is a preferred if not primary way of worshipping." -Pres. Uchtdorf

                  You end up with a young Costa Rican wife and the runs.

                    I spent a night there last year and there was a golf course next to the hotel. It looked decent. I don't remember which hotel it was, though. They also had a mall there that puts to shame any mall I had seen before.
