Rogue River, fishing capital of the world. I do not fish, but many friends do and I enjoy their stories immensely. The annual Rogue River trip is like a visit to the vineyards. Winos can be a little nutty, but fisherman take it to a whole new level. One obsessive will stop off and buy crabs on the way home if he has a bad day so he will not return empty handed.
I hope the move goes smoothly. When I moved about seven years ago (across town from a three-bedroom rental to a two-bedroom purchased condo) I had a housewarming party before all the boxes were unpacked. I found a perfect advertisement which I taped to the side of a box in the entryway. It showed a living room strewn with opened but unemptied boxes and a bottle of Beaulieu Vineyards Georges de Latour and the slogan “The boxes won’t mind if you wait until tomorrow.” In smaller print “Savor the moment with BV wines.” I hope you have a suitable wine to welcome you to your new home.
