A Wonderful Weekend

Tell me you wouldn't want to live here...








Something is calling our name...

but she needs a lot of help and we're trying to decide if we're up for it.

  1. The town looks so beautiful and the house looks really cute. Is this a move you're considering or would this be a vacation place?

  8. Oh, you've made my day! We lived in Astoria for a few years when our children were little. Our dear daughter was born while we were there and I would go back in a second. I love that town and the whole area. I would love to have my old house there again. Now I know exactly what I would do with it. It was wonderful then but now I could REALLY do it right. It was a wonderful old house that had been lovingly cared for. There have been some improvements since we lived there and I'd love to live in it again. We had a fantastic view of the Columbia River and the ships and downtown area. I think you would love living there. The people are great and it's a good place to be. That house looks like it could be fantastic. Keep us posted. ~Adrienne~

  15. being a native Oregonian, I can say that Astoria would be a nice place to have a weekend house, but not full time.

    I don't know, maybe it's because my family is so diverse, we'd just feel so unwelcome there as regulars, you know? It's SOOOOO singular-dimensional.

    But a house closer to the beach? I'd love something in Canon!
