You know you live in Oregon . . .

If someone in a Home Depot store offers you assistance and they don't work there, you probably live in Oregon .

If you've worn shorts and a parka at the same time, you probably live in Oregon.

If you've had a lengthy telephone conversation with someone who dialed the wrong number, you probably live in Oregon.

If you know several people who have hit a deer more than once, you probably live in Oregon.

If you have switched from 'heat' to 'A/C' and back again in the same day, you probably live in Oregon.

If you install security lights on your house and garage but leave both doors unlocked, you probably live in Oregon.

If you design your kid's waterproof Halloween costume to fit over a 8 layers of clothes, you probably live in Oregon ..

You just made me want to move to Oregon. I can never find anyone to help me at Home Depot!

I think we could switch a few of those Oregons to Uthas and it would still make sense (I have hit multiple deer, and a cow! How embarassing, I am good at not hitting other cars though).

Or Washington.

This post is just one more reason I want to live in Oregon.

Too funny!

I've read one similar to this about Utah.

HA!! YA! Totally my parents on the security thing. Wow.

Haha...did you make these up? Some could be similar to Utah or even Idaho. I have one more for you though...If you drive 5 miles under the speed limit, you probably live in Oregon. We drove through Oregon once, and the drivers there were so incredibly slow. We must not have passed you though, since you already admitted to being a SPEED DEMON!! :)
