Although I've lived in Utah for about 8 years, I still consider Oregon my home. I was born and raised in the 'beaver state'. All of my childhood memories involve this beautiful, green location in the Pacific Northwest. Some people say it's too rainy (it definitely does rain a lot), but the rain is what makes it such a gorgeous place! And I can handle the rain most of the year, because nothing beats an Oregon summer. Plus, I love the outdoors and it's the perfect location for hiking, camping, fishing, going to the beach and even skiing (Sure...the snow can't compare to Utah, but Mt. Hood has a ski resort that's actually open year round)!
I loved living in Oregon, but after attending community college I decided it was time for something new...so I made the trek to Utah and enrolled at Utah State University. I had no real intentions of staying, but then life happened. I got married, had kids, got a job...and for now Utah is where we reside, but I do hope to one day get back to the city I love: Portland, Oregon.
I can't even tell you how excited I was when I found out about
The Home. T! It's the perfect piece of clothing that helps me to show love for my home state and it makes me so happy when I'm wearing it. Honestly, I've probably been wearing this shirt more often than I should, but I just can't help it...I like to show off my Oregon pride! The fact that it's the most comfortable t-shirt I own also helps AND I love that a portion of the profits are donated to multiple sclerosis research! I'm fairly certain they have a shirt for every state and even a couple countries. I definitely recommend getting one of these, especially if your true "home" is somewhere else (like mine is). If you start to feel homesick, you can just throw on this t-shirt and it will make you feel a little bit better!
