Reflections on the United States of America 2026
We’ll be here from July 14 - August 24, 2026. We’re confining our annual stateside visit to just the State of Oregon this year.
We’ll be in our hometown of Portland for all of it except for a southern Oregon weekend visit. We’ll attend a celebration of life for our deceased friend Dan Valens in Medford. We’ll stay in the historical village of Jacksonville, Oregon for the weekend.
Portland accommodations will be repeats at both Beau’s Airbnb and Stephen and Thomas’s Portland International Guesthouse. Both rainbow properties are wonderful and are in our old neighborhood offering us that feeling of “going home,” even though we are still homeless. We’ll also spend our final weekend in a southeast Portland guesthouse close to our kids and grandkids.
The accommodations listed below add in the new 2026 listings first, followed by our 2025 itinerary.
Reflections on the United States of America 2025
We were here August 12 - September 22, 2025. We had friends to see, family to love on and property we had to check.
But without access to our home, currently being rented, we stayed in hotels and Airbnbs. We visited our hometown of Portland, Oregon and some spots in Ohio to see family.
Below are pics from our accommodations.
See pics (on our Facebook posts) of what we did throughout our six weeks in the USA - First post, Second post, Third post, Fourth post, Fifth post, Sixth post.
We also recorded two podcasts while we were there: “How To Die in Oregon…Naturally”: Part One, Part Two.
