Welcome Bill. Throwing out the junk is a good way to start. I assume you are from Portland, Oregon. As a former resident of Portland, Maine (now living in Vermont) I wish to point out that there are 2 Portlands in the US and one is on the east coast. It is smaller than the one on the west coast but still a very nice place to live or visit. A daughter of a friend of mine once found herself flying to Portland Oregon when she thought she had gotten on a plane bound for Portland Maine.
