Sooo, we're sorta tossing around the idea of someday moving up there. McMinneville may be a possible future home, since it's more developed. Anyone know how it faired, as well?

We live in Newberg, which is 20 minutes from McMinnville and about a 1/2 hour from Sheridan. We really got blown around, but as far as I know there was minimal damage in our area.

If you're thinking about moving to the area, do check out Newberg as well. It not too much smaller than McMinnville, but easier to go places from. We're about 25 miles from Portland, and an hour or so from the coast and mountains.

There are also lots of great TE'ers up here, two of which I ride with fairly often!
