Hi neighbor I live between Seattle & Tacoma, I actually used to live in Tacoma off & on over the years. Glad to see you here you will fins a LOT of interesting things on these boards.
i'm in redmond. moved here last year from california due to dh's job relocation.
it took some time to get used to the rains but now i feel so happy to be here because there is so much greenery around.
I wish I were near there! I'm from Portland, OR and I miss the Pacific NW terribly. Central PA doesn't cut it for me. Lately I've really been itching to go/move to Seattle.
I've only been to Seattle once. Have you been to Portland? If so, how would you compare the two?
acidcookie i know how u feel. i'd loathe to move, leaving this pretty place.
Been to portland once in november during thanksgiving. however i had gone there to take an exam hence dint get much time to go around. but we(dh n i) did visit the japanese garden. it was very chilly but still managed to see the whole of it. looking forward to go again this summer.
(ok, so I know this thread is almost a year old...but I was just looking around to see if I had any neighbors!)

Well, I'm in Lewis County, a couple (three?) counties to the south of Tacoma. I live in a community of less than 600 people, having moved up here from Clark County (Wa.) two years ago.
I'll be passing through Tacoma this Wednesday (the 12th) for an appointment with my hand surgeon in Seattle.
Oh, yeah? I pass through Packwood whenever my kids go to their dad's in Ellenesburg because I have to meet him (the ex) at the top of White Pass. I actually really like the town of Packwood.
I am south of you in Oregon. I live south of Portland in Corvallis. Have only been here for 2 years. Haven't been to Washington yet. Heard it was very nice up there.
I currently live in AZ, but my DBF is from Graham, Washington. We visited there last March and I fell in love!! We also went to Bremerton and I told him that I want to move there in a few years. So maybe (hopefully) we will be neighbors someday!
I live in Iowa now, but I grew up in Olympia. My parents and my Dh's parents still live there. We hope to move back to the Pacific Northwest in the next year or so.
