I clicked on all the pages.
Gee, I wonder where Sunriver Soaring is. Your message says Oregon.
Unless I missed it, the website doesn't even say that.

Holy Cow! How did we screw that up?! It's our first run on the
website. Thanks for the catch. I guess we sometimes make assumptions
we shouldn't make. Yes, we're in Oregon. Sunriver is about fifteen
miles south of Bend on Hwy 97. We'll make the necessary changes to
the website. Many thanks!

The same way a metric buttload of other business screw it
up. It is astonishing how many cash and carry business have
webpages that make no mention of the country, state or often
even city in which they are located. Some even have a helpful
map showing their location with respect to all of the streets
with a two or three city block radius.

Another fun one is "the bay area". I live in "the bay area".
The Chesapeake Bay Area to be precise, or at least
more precise than may who live in the San Francisco
Bay area...

I may have been unclear.

My point was that this is a very common mistake, even
made by businesses (or one presumes by people they
pay to their websites for them) when there is real money
at stake.

It's an easy mistake to make.

Type 43 52' 35"N, 121 27' 11"W in the GoogleEarth search window. Zoom in
and you can see two sailplanes being assembled on the Sunriver ramp.

It's gorgeous, and a LOT cooler than Phoenix during the summer, due to
the 4200' elevation and nearby mountains that drain off cool air in the
evening. Oh, good soaring, too!

Is it a long range suburb for the Portland to Eugene sprawl? Is it
growing rapidly? Can a guy buy 40 decent acres without being a
millionaire?
I'm starting to look for a retirement area, and PHX ain't it! I don't
want to get sprawled upon.
