Our New Pocket Guide Oregon Under Foot

This has been a very busy last four months so I apologize for not keeping the blog updated lately. There have been many things to add, I just haven't had an opportunity to get some spare time lately.

Still a locally owned and operated business with the help of a wonderful, knowledgeable staff,we hope to see you in the show room again.

We would all like to thank Richard, as he is happily retired to Post Falls, Idaho. We are all happy and the customers are once again happy!
