Hey scott conary, you are one lucky guy!

I just noticed you afre from Oregon. I just spent a couple of days on assignment for my job in Portland. I rode all the way from near the airport to the Wind Generator area in east Oregon. What a ride! What gorgeous sites, roads and over all area. I noticed that the BMEW dealer was near the car rental return, but it was closed on Monday and I was scheduled to leave to Quad City on Tuesday morning. I look foirward to November when I return to do some more photography of the wind generator sites under friendlier terms.
So, with that said Scott, you have your private little heaven.

Just to ruin your day, what you saw is what we consider the crappy part of the state!

Great...very encouraging. Now I feel better about Florida. the "FLAT state". The view does not change here. I saw many areas where I would not have a problem moving to Portland. You have one beautiful back yard.
Thanks for your message RedBeemer!
