I dig the modern deco of the Houston house, but give me Oregon. I love the rock face and the acreage, but I'll have to borrow the wardrobe that leads to Narnia so I can chuck all the dead critters through to that world. And the cowhide wallpaper in the theater room, too. WTF??

I've stayed close to what is now a hockey arena (formerly Key Arena) and really enjoyed both stays... close to the Needle and not a terrible walk towards Pike Place and things, with some good places to eat and watch a football game in between.

Not sure I'd love living there unless I was out of town a bit, but have enjoyed the city.

I bet my distant ancestors faced great danger in a coastal pleistocene swamp that smelled vaguely of petroleum.

Oregon, but not really excited by either of them.

I actually kind of hate Oregon though. Portland is an awful mess of homeless people, tents everywhere, people shooting up on the street at 2 in the afternoon, bad traffic for a smaller city.... a lot of big city problems.

Many people are just now learning how to pump their own gas, so you'll overhear conversations like "it'll just stop when it's done, right?" and "just slide your card there, then push that button"....

I got one weird look at a gas station from some guy telling me I could go ahead and pump my own gas... and I was like, uh, yep, on it. I went inside to use the restroom and got another weird look.... oh, the bathroom is outside. The same guy was like, uh, you're not from around here are you?

No, I'm from the future... it's 2018 and people have been pumping their own gas for decades, and restrooms are on the inside of gas stations now! And there are no more Blockbusters!

Houston is an absolute shit hole. NO thanks

I am glad I am not alone in my estimation of Houston as the least charming city in America.

There are some fabulous places in Oregon where I would love to live, Cannon Beach may be the most beautiful place I've ever been, but that ranch does nothing for me.

Which one is Clay's house?
