The Falls are about 25 miles east of Portland, OR, so from San Francisco it would be about 650 miles by car. We really enjoyed our visit, but I had been there when I was very young so it was a nostalgic thing for me as well as an interesting tourist stop. At the falls you will find a small lodge that houses a gift shop and restaurant. There are several trails to hike, some short and easy and others longer. The falls themselves are quite beautiful. They are about 600 feet tall and the whole area is constantly shrouded in mist from the falling water, so it is very green. The plant growth is incredibly dense and many of the tree trunks are covered in moss. If you have the time, I would suggest planning at least a day to tour the whole Columbia Gorge area. There is a lot of info online about the area and it is a popular tourist destination. The river itself is quite interesting if you have not been around large rivers before. You can see quite a bit of shipping traffic, take a tour on the water, etc., etc. There are several small towns along the river that have historic districts, shopping, outdoor activities, etc. Good luck planning your trip!!!

I could have sworn I saw someone there who looked an awful lot like you... Overwhelmed as usual, -Matt. Adam,

I'm having exactly the same problem and Microsoft doesn't answer my "ticket" at all. If you manage to find some other place to get the fix, let me know or post here; I know lots of other people with this problem. So, did you manage to get the Hotfix?

However, there is one bug that I have found. If you delete a story or two or whatever and are missing an ID number (i.e., 1, 2, 5, 6, 8) it causes errors. Atleast for me. Still a great plugin though!

I was putting a manual choke on my pet '77 Blazer and had (sort of) decided to remanufacture the brackets like you did. I saw your notes on the internet so I did a similar thing. (w/some changes. Not a problem since I'm a Welding instructor.) Works like a charm! The Ol' Blaze Dog is back on the trail! like a charm! Thanks for the tip on the front bracket. I was putting a manual choke
