This is the question! ..and while watching our housing market explode, more people than ever discovering what we know we have here in Portland, and outlying areas of Gorge, Coast and Mountains; let's breathe and make room for more Conscious Living folks that we hope are joining us with the same fresh air and green focused minds! Soon- more music in the parks and always our continuing art focused, forward thinking community will hopefully be able to accommodate our growing population ;-/ I'm holding on with positive thoughts! ..and I'll continue to work to be part of the solution!
