The End of an Era...We are Shutting Down the Messageboard

The messageboard is now in read-only mode and no new posts or topics can be created. We will leave the messageboard up for historical purposes, but you will not be able to make new posts or comment on existing ones.

We have started a Discord server and hope that you all will join us on there. Technology has changed over the years and maintaining the messageboard has become somewhat of a pain in the butt and Discord offers many features for users, the main one being a very polished mobile app.

We really hope you all will join us on Discord and think you will like the platform. Use the invite link below to join.

The problem with Seattle is that the weather is so depressing for a good portion of the year. I couldn't live without sun for months on end.

Seattle = the shizzle.



The Taphouse = even more shizzleness.





Love that city.

They have sunshine, just not days and days in a row of it. More like pockets here and there. And they have some real kick-*** skiing within an hour's drive, so the trade off is more than worth it. Except for the Boeing thing, I recognize all those city pics. Cool.

I went to the Seattle-Tacoma area last summer. What a great place! The ferry ride from Bremerton to Seattle was amazing. You see the city with snow covered mountains (in August) behind it and Mt. Ranier (14,400') off in the distance and lots of water, islands, peninsulas, and inlets all around. Wow. It was about 82* and sunny one day while I was there and everyone was complaining how hot it was. The other days were usually in the 50's 60's and 70's, cloudy rainy or sunny--changing all the time. I loved it there.
