"Oregon is an inspiration. Whether you come to it, or are born to it, you become entranced by our state's beauty, the opportunity she affords, and the independent spirit of her citizens." - Tom McCall

March 8 is National Oregon Day, a time to recognize the 33rd state known for its wild west past and scenic landscapes. Oregon was founded in 1859 and now has a population of over 4 million. A theory suggests that this state gets it's name from the French-Canadian word "ouragan" meaning "hurricane." Referring to the powerful winds that comes from the Columbia River.
