I lived in Elmira in 1974-75. I really liked Eugene, but Elmira was a hillbilly town, and I was miserable there.

My daughter served her mission there 2008-2010. Her cousin served there too, they spent a few months together, as together as missions allow that is.

Funny story, my nephew and his companion tracted out Richard Packham and they had a discussion with him. My sister e-mailed his letters so I was able to read that he had tracted out this ex-mormon who had an anti-mormon web site and of course how whacked out he thought this guy was. Within a few days Richard Packham told the story about these two missionaries who had tracted him out. I realized it was my nephew who had visitied him. I was at the beginning of my journey at the time and throughly enjoyed hearing about this encounter. Crazy.

Yes! Corvallis here.
