What's there to do in Oregon?
Oregon is a vacation paradise. Beautiful mountains, spectacular coast, loads of hiking, friendly people, picturesque cities, not to mention the ever popular horse racing, golf, fishing, bird watching, whale watching, and our own Crater Lake National Park. Oregon is divided by the Cascade mountains, into the wet (green) western side and the dry eastern side.
