Hi Carolyn,
I am a Realtor in Bandon which is about 25 minutes north of Port Orford. I would love to spend some time with you covering the area and our weather patterns. I have lived in Bandon for the majority of my life, but lived in Seattle for three years between 2000 and 2003. I have family in Gig Harbor and visit regularly. I much prefer our weather to the consistantly overcast areas of WA. There are a few things you might want to consider when looking at the Oregon Coast in terms of weather and which area will suit you best.

When you have a moment, please feel free to email me or call me on my cell phone, 541-404-3322. I hope that I can help shed some light on your dreary Washington winter!
