Hey - I think I may have been living under a rock, but it seems like if you have BlueCross (Anthem) medical coverage via your Intel employment or Retiree benefits, they have been in failing negotiations w OHSU. At this point, per the info OHSU recently sent out, they will no longer be in-network with BlueCross/Anthem at the end of the year. This is true for all their offices and Immediate Care in Beaverton and Hillsboro as well as both the Hillsboro and main hospital on "The Hill". So spreading the word - best I can tell, Washington County has only St V's left as a hospital that will take this insurance.

We’d like to take dad to a shave ice truck on Sunday (father’s day) … are there any you know of?

Just drove thru the area and there is a sign up in the section that is near Target - Michael’s that says HomeGoods is coming soon.

FYI - it seems as though the city has approved In N Out's traffic plan (I'd love to see it!) and have the green light from the City to open up.

I'm a freshman college student (Oregon State), and I'm hunting for a summer job, hopefully that can make use of my junior coding/IT skills. I'd like to approach a temp agency that works with the local tech/bio firms (Genentech, Intel, etc) that would be receptive of a 1st year local student. I'm all ears if you know a good person/agency that won't turn me away.
