Love Sperling's BestPlaces! - 3/11/2013
After reading postings on here for so many years, I am finally signed up to participate! It's a great forum for pioneering types like myself who have moved around a lot and are still keeping their options open :) Opinions can be quite diverse about locales, people and climate, so please don't let one comment push you towards or away from somewhere. Ultimately, we all make our own beds for ourselves and have to find our own personal connections. I, for instance, live in Western WA State where people always say how cold and rainy it is. By comparison to where exactly? People on the east coast and in northern Europe will know exactly what I'm talking about! Personal experience is everything, and in regards to human interactions and the quality of life we enjoy, "what we give is what we get." We shouldn't move anywhere expecting to hand us our dreams on a silver platter. You have to make your dreams happen for yourself, which are more likely to materialized when shared with other people

Seattle Washington - 10/23/2011
I live in a suburb in the outskirts of seattle and i am not the biggest fan. I enjoy the city life being only a 25 min drive away. But the weather is a disappointment. It is always cloudy and rainy. Or just drizzles. Because of the rain, theres not a lot of outdoor activities to do.

Columbia River Gorge Remembered. - 4/26/2011
I grew up in Stevenson, Wa from 1962 to 1986. I graduated from the Stevenson High School in 1981. I remember North Bonneville before the second power plant was built. Stevenson was such a different town before "Wind Surfing" became popular in the late 80's and before the Federal Government proclaimed the Gorged a National Park. I went through Stevenson back in 2008 and the down town area has been all updated and there is even a resort just to the west of town. Which provides a variety of services and activities to the passer-by. Every time I come back on home on vacation and drive up the Columbia River Gorge it still takes my breath away. The Char-Burger is still my favorite place to eat, on the Oregon side of the river in Cascade Locks, OR just at the bottom of the Bridge of the Gods. The view is beautiful and hasn't changed in all these years. Then I love to drive West on Interstate 80, OR side of the river, to the old scenic hwy. and take it into Troutdale. ((GET YOUR CAMERA
