Denver- PDX
The other day we were at a Skt. Hans (Summer Solstice) party with a bunch of Danish people. Among the crowd was a 'top meteorologist' who told us that despite its reputation for 'bad' weather, Oregon actually had some of the 'best' weather in the entire country. Many people at the party concurred, saying that the Oregon summers were reason enough to live here (who knew?!).
Apparently, long-time Oregonians also call the rainy season the 'rinse cycle.'
It purges all of the crappy people out of Oregon. A restaurant owner in Downtown Portland and California native told us the same last August.
So if anyone happens to be looking at real estate in oh, say for example, Denver, you've got 90's and muggy. We've got 80's and... 'moist.'
You can still make it here in time for a cold Widmer, brisket tacos and fireworks down by the river.
Denver to PDX- $239.
For everything else, there's Mastercard.

I must say that I am a firm believer in that there is no where I'd rather be IN THE SUMMER than Washington or Oregon -can't beat it.
Though I've not experienced a Chicago summer, I expect I'd rather be in Oregon then too. Noone talks positively about Chicago's humid summer, except to say that it usually only lasts a month or two.
