Focus will be your superpower - figure out which strategy you like best and double down on that! 

I have flown into north bend many many times I would go on IFR training flights from Aurora and my go to  was first to Newport then shoot the approach into North Bend  which takes you about 5 miles out into the ocean for the procedure turn.. always could find some actual weather there..
