@Cat Jones Thank you, I'm in Jackson, but this may be worth the trip.  

Hello,    Just starting my trip down the rabbit hole that is REI so apologies if this information is somewhere else and I have not found it yet.

I plan to make a trip out these within the next several weeks but I would like some local help.

Thanks for the tour adviser offer--I'll be making trips to Bend in the foreseeable future and will take you up on it.  

Would they come back for a golf trip or girls getaway?

Not sure about that last one.A standard shipping contain cost in my town is $3500 for a "one trip" 8 x 20. $4800 for 8 x 40.

While were on the subject of strippers and cash....if you're planning a trip to a strip club please remember to get your ones from the bank before you go vs. getting them at the club.

I am from Philadelphia and am taking a trip down to TX to scope out a new market.

I have a research trip planned in July, to check out various spots in North and South Carolina looking both at Vacation rentals as well as Student rentals.  

Even though I am a real estate broker in Boise, one advantage for Bend is that you can go check on your investment twice a year and write off the trip while you enjoy golfing or skiing.
