X2 on Toby's pics....spent many years in the Pacific Northwest, great memories, including the 195 mile relay race from Mt Hood to Seaside OR....well, the party at the end of the run was fun anyway.
Best of luck Larry and Patsy, if I don't get in at Vegas I'll stop by your shop when I'm in Kentucky this winter and say hello.

Jim, You still have to come down about 5500' on the interstate . You DO have a few runaway ramps though...
Time of day is the big consideration as to when you want to hit downtown Phoenix.
