Another pop up camper option is All Terrain Camper in Sacramento. They kept the product more basic, and four wheel went for volume and more bells and whistles. i had one with my gmc 1500 for a couple of years, and it was great. i bought it w/o interior, and outfitted myself.
my understanding, is for instance, the roads in rural oregon need $ from the state to both complete building and maintaining. generally, from my just driving around, it appears that the roads in eastern wa, and or, are in pretty good shape.

i used to use turbo tax. back in.... 2008, i took a $ buyout, and did an early retirement. i always did my taxes on turbo tax. that yr, turbo said i was eligible for an alternative minimum tax carry forward. or something close to that. anyways, i did, and then did it for years - and kept...
nice looking steak. when i was young, he would bring home T-bones from the meat case. if they 'aged' in the case, and had some brown, he had to mark down. we had t-bones almost every week. that said, when i started grilling he recommended ribeye.
