Things that are awesome about Ashland, Oregon:

They have a Tree Commission.

Said commission votes on a Tree of the Year.

They had a Car Free Day that encouraged people to seek other forms of transportation apart from cars.

Southern Oregon University has family housing and they define a couple as "two (2) individuals of the opposite or same gender who live together in an intimate, long-term relationship of indefinite duration with an exclusive mutual commitment in which partners share the necessities of life and agree to be financially responsible for each other's welfare, including living expenses."


I want to live there. It is such a cute town.

You're not allowed to pump your own gas in Oregon. Only move to Oregon if you're incompetent.

Hey, I liked that fact. I hated it at first but it was nice. It gave the whole state a small town feel.

What I did hate were all the evergreen trees.

That sounds awesome.

Wait. Can you really not pump your own gas?
Hmm..
Not a big loss.

Yeah, I never knew Oregon was like that until I drove through there earlier this year and had to get gas.. And I was asking the scary service man guy, 'So... All of Oregon is like this?'.. And he goes 'Yep'.
