Bend is located in what is known as the "high desert" country of Oregon. I've visited there several times and like the small(ish) town atmosphere, the fresh air and the ambiance. I don't need to find employment (luckily enough), but am on a 'fixed income', so do need to be mindful of finances. I would hope to find like-minded liberal Democrats, although I have heard that it typically is Conservative, but I just can't think that it is as Conservative as TEXAS???? And I doubt that the inhabitants are not as ignorant as the citizens of the "great state of Texas" regarding social issues. We shall see.
