Where in the world is Oregon?

For those who may not know, Oregon is very close to the North Pole. This little known fact is part of the phenomenon related to being in close proximity to the Oregon Vortex, located just outside of Gold Hill, Oregon. The adjacent photo documents a native Medfordite during Sunday's blizzard. The person in the photo was trying communicate with photographer through the howling blizzard but little could be heard. We believe that it she was asking, "is it time to leave yet?" But it could have been, "Haven't you left yet?".
