buoyant, I'm not sure where it is that your mother in law's timeshare is or if it is a part of the Interval Int'l exchange company, but we are owners of the Great Links Resorts group and they have a number of great timeshare in the Pacific Northwest. I golf with friends a lot and we use the Great Links Resorts at Desert Canyon timeshare in Orondo, Washington. Amazing view and excellent golf! Worldmark is pretty big in this area and we have exchanged with II to get some nice timeshares that you may enjoy. Also, as a Realtor it's known that the Pacific Northwest real estate market, unlike the vast majority of the rest of the country is quite robust.
