We are happy to have Jeff join our family and look forward to big things in the coming years
*****For the record Jeff will be living in a wonderfull small community nestled in the mountains surrounded by lakes with amazing year round weather , very little snow. So any thaught of Jeff living in a igloo and running in the snow like Sylvester Stallone in Rocky 4 are not on the mark LOL
we are a 30min flight from Seattle or a beutifull 5 and a half hour drive north.
with the rising price of gas we felt it was in our best intersts to go "Diesel"
