**NODS** can fully empathize with that feeling I grew up in the military, a Navy brat, and when I finished university, and then Peace Corps, it was still not right somehow. My father came home from Vietnam and he said he was going to do some lecturing at Navy hospital in SF bay area. Did we want to accompany him? The minute we entered the officers' mess I knew where I belonged and it was NOT here in Portland........... You go with your feeling. It is what is best for you. BTW my mother stayed here for awhile but then accompanied him overseas again, when she could, but my sister stayed permanently......... Portland became my home of record, nothing more............. I am back here now but still feel like I am in transit.
