Any idea what a gig like this might pay?

 

It's a WesCom paper, so the pay won't be great, but certainly liveable.

This opening's popped up a few times. A little birdie told me the person who left now works in the Antelope Valley.

 

Might pay close to 30K for the right person. Lovely area with some arts, restaurants, wineries, history ... and it actually is not that far from Tahoe. California's version of four seasons as well.
