Hello Steemits! LisaLivesNorth Has Just Entered The Building!
Excited to be here in this new world!
Boring? Quite The Contrary!
I'm Lisa and I live just outside of Portland Oregon USA in a little town called Boring.
Yes! Boring!
You read that correctly. A two traffic light main road leading you throughout the Pacific Northwest wonderland. From hiking the Columbia Gorge behind waterfalls spraying mist over the top of your head, skiing Mt Hood and lounging at Timberline Lodge atop the snowy banks, sampling the best beers in the nation, tasting wines from Pacific Northwest vineyards, discovering hand made local artist wares, fashion designers, Portland's finest food cart fares & more!
This is my life
Never truly boring yet full of peaceful insight to what makes life in my neck of the woods livable.
More people are moving here to Portland and it's metro area then any other place in the US. Changes are inevitable yet that is what this area is all about. Thriving in a trail blazing environment.
I'll write about all types of topics from, social media, fashion, Native American jewelry, hiking, vintage trailers, eating, and deep thoughts about living life.
I've held a baby in my arms while it was taking it's last breathes and held the hand of my grandmother as she transitioned from this life beyond the vail. I took care of my mother while she battled ALS and finally was rid of her brutal fight just this last June. I watched my only sister, my best friend die tragically and unexpectedly. And just this January on the 5th day my youngest daughter had brain surgery to remove a tumor from the epicenter of her brain. I've built businesses and sold them, I've raised two daughters, am blessed to have two little granddaughters and all along reached out to cheerlead people through this life that can surely pack it's punches.
I'm a successful entrepreneur and writer sharing tips and trinkets from my everyday life as LisaLivesNorth.
