Washington Named To Top 5 List

 I love Fall in the Wenatchee Valley!

According to a feature on today's AOL Small Business Money & Finance, Washington is one of the top 5 business friendly states. 

In addition, if your business consumes a large amount of electricity (like high technology ISPs and server farms), Wenatchee is the place to be.   Wenatchee (in Chelan County) is one of three neighboring counties offering the least expensive hydroelectric power rates in the nation. 

Douglas county (East Wenatchee) and Grant County (Ephrata, Moses Lake, Quincy) are the other two local counties with inexpensive power rates. 

How inexpensive are our power rates?  Well, I own a 2300 square foot home, totally powered by electricity (heat, air conditioning, cooking, lights, blah, blah) and last months bill was $31.73 (down about $5 from the previous month when it was sooo hot and we were using the air conditioning a lot).

Hi Ann,  I was in Boston once in mid October and it was beautiful... but really we have some equally spectacular Fall foliage here too.  Thanks for stopping in.

Carol, my jaw dropped at the cost of your electric.  My August bill for a 3500 sq ft home was $426 !!
