If you live in Clark County, I hope you realize how blessed you are to live so close to the airport at PDX. I live in East Vancouver and it takes me all of 15 minutes to reach the airport from my house. I think it takes Dale all of 10 minutes from his house. This is something that I don’t take for granted at all. When I lived in Southern California, I got to wade through traffic for 30-50 minutes (or longer) to get to the airport. When I lived in Kansas, it was 75 minutes to the airport in Kansas City. And when I lived in Seattle, I got to fight traffic on my 25-45 minute drive to SeaTac. Here in Clark County, it is extremely rare to have traffic on the way to the airport and you can zip off to anywhere in the world after your short drive to the airport. And now that Portland’s airport has been chosen as Conde Nast Traveler’s Best U.S. Airport for the second year in a row, we dare not take all of this for granted. PDX is the best and I’m thankful that we live so close to it here in Clark County!


Take care,
