Gig Harbor, Port Orchard, Bremerton, Silverdale are all pretty nice places to settle down. I haven't spent a bunch of time there but I'd buy there before, say, Lynnwood/Everett or south King County. Check out Port Angeles as well. I'd imagine its expensive out there but its beautiful. ...
North Seattle. Probably will never be able to afford to buy in the city, and am not really a suburb person, so I will probably move somewhere else in 3-5 years. But if you're looking to relocate in a *relatively* affordable area, I like it up north. Lake Stevens, Granite Falls, even as far north as ...
I moved to Seattle close to 10 years ago. The quality of life here is so much better. No boil water advisories. No hurricanes. Far fewer loud, ignorant mouth breathers. More natural beauty. Mountains. Far better economy. Roaches and mosquitoes are few and far between. Despite the very high cos...

I think either are acceptable. Both have that limp wrist thing going on. ...

[img]https://i.imgur.com/40ANhHC.gif[/img] This is one of my very favorite gifs. I remember watching that game, seeing the camera briefly pan in on this legend, and just laughing hysterically. Anybody know this guy? How's he doing? I hope life has been fabulous for him. ...

Looks rad! But as a group I'd rate our fitness level as "average" and our ambition perhaps a bit lower than that :lol: ...

Colorado Mountain Towns

Posted by BRPelican45 on 4/29/24 at 12:59 pm
I'm heading to Colorado in July with a few friends from college (all in our mid-30s, no kids, no wives). This is our second consecutive summer trip there - last year was a blast, but I'm all ears for anything fun to do that might fly a bit under the radar. Last year we were there for 4 days, stay...

re: Vancouver, BC suggestions

I agree with the Stanley Park recommendations (if the weather is decent, go rent a bike and ride around the rim of the park), but I don't think Granville Island is a must-see. It's mostly kitschy, tourist stuff for sale. If you're 50+ you'll probably enjoy it. Do yourself a favor and get some xi...

Say what you want about Joe Biden, but if you think *he* is the authoritarian who would stage a coup to maintain power ... I don't really know what to tell you. ...

I'm sure housing of all kinds - including hotels and AirBnBs - will be at even more of a premium than ever before. I would assume the time it takes to re-build a home is substantially longer in Hawaii than in the Continental US. If I lived in Hawaii, I'd imagine the extra traffic, wait times, co...
First place that came to mind for me was Belfast. Had a great time learning about the Troubles, Titanic Museum is probably the most engaging, comprehensive, interesting museum I've ever been to .. but no real desire to go back....
