This is a great idea. I live in a rural area and the utility companies vary from subdivision to subdivision, so this would make a great post for me to do. Thanks for the great idea!

Debb,

I need to do exactly what you just put together as I get all these requests for mailed books about this area. Send them links for the good stuff and not worry about paper. In fact putting this stuff on a web site makes a whole lot of sense to me. I will suggest.

Mac would be a big hit if we came to the Halloween Walk and Costume dog event at La Centerra. Everyone would want to pet him and hug him!!

Debb... You're a wealth of info on Vancouver to be sure. And I am a big fan of your Mac and Me videos. Southern Washington, especially the greater Vancouver area is so beautiful and bordered by the mighty Columbia!
