> Grant's Pass, OR When I first passed through this place due to work, driving from one work location to another, I stayed the night because I could and "was allowed" [by the job] to break up the drive. It was a nice demarcation; some catching-up on "The Shield" was had. As jobs and life moved on, since I have some extended family and friends around the Portland area, Grant's Pass remained a demarcation but in different respects: as a boarder-crossing signal, as a sign-post, as a pit-stop as needed whilst I just kept going "straight on 'til morning" [I preferred one long drive back then, can't be sure now for reasons]. I cannot tell you anything particularly special about Grant's Pass other than "it's near the border" and "I-5 goes through it". No offence intended to people living there.
