Sauvie Island Community

When Fiona and I moved our family from close-in SW Portland to Sauvie Island, it was a big change but one of the best decisions we've made. Granted, we did have to become a bit more organized since we couldn't just "run" down to the store to pick up that forgotten item, but it's been worth it.
