I would like to meet some DU members...

here in my neighborhood.

Back in 2005, I lived in Texas. My husband had passed away, and I was lucky enough to meet DU members in real life. We got together to watch the Superbowl.

Is there anyone around Hillsboro, Oregon who isn't just a keyboard warrior?

Glad to have you in our beautiful progressive state, and on the DU board. I am an Oregonian who now lives East of the Cascades, but I'm well familiar with the Valley and Hillsboro. Pretty sure you'll find some fellow DUers in your area. I'm also thinking there are some Indivisible.org groups as well. You might check that out.

Remember our State motto: She Flies With Her Own Wings. Yes indeed!
