Welcome!
Quite familiar with that area. Probably going to retire there. Lived in that town for a few years after having moved there from just north in Colville. My wife is over in that area for a few days so if you happen to see a Gecko JKUR be sure to wave.
First, thank you for serving our country. Second, when you get back I would love to get out and do a trail ride and camp. My future wife and I love to go wheeling around. We are getting married in 6.... OMG 6 days!
