I will be living in the middle of nowhere, also known as Arcadia. Population 7K

I have heard horror stories galore. I am gritting my teeth but I will deal. We are planning on living there for 3 years, before coming back to Oregon where we own a home. (we are seeking renters for the the house now, and fixing it up for our departure.)

I am glad that my three year old will get to know my wifes family. I wonder how much spanish we all will learn.

I am told its really no place for radically queer looking, liberal, gluten free, poly kinky people. I will miss the Portland bubble. I hope the crockodiles and republicans dont eat me.

Hey there PearlsNLace!

Arcadia is not so bad actually. Is a quaint little town..sitting between the Gulf Coast & The East Coast of Florida.

No the crocs will not eat you, I can't vouch for Republicans, though..lol

if I can help make you guys feel welcome at all, let me know.

Safe travels & welcome to the Sunshine State. clay
