Hi. My name is Dave Johnson. I live in Portland, Oregon USA. I’m 57, married with 2 grown sons (26 & 20). I grew up in Lincoln Nebraska and after finishing school began my professional career in San Diego, CA. After 4 years in San Diego it was clear to my wife and I that southern California was not where we wanted to raise a family. I found a job with Intel in Portland in 1979 and we have been here ever since.
We love Portland. It has a midwest friendliness combined with uncommon beauty and plenty of opportunities for outdoor adventure. I feel blessed to have been able to raise my family here.
I’m starting this blog thanks to my oldest son. He is trying to teach this old dog new tricks by kick starting my foray into web 2.0. I don’t know if anyone will read what I have to say, let alone comment on it… but I’m hoping they will since interaction is the whole reason for doing this… anyway this is the place to go if you want to know what is happening in my life or hear my opinions on various topics. I hope this blog will be informative to at least a few people.
