I was in Seattle a day and a night in 1983, while traveling the country. Visited Jimi Hendrix's gravesite, saw a great jazz combo in a cobblestone section. Pretty city, despite raining the entire time, and all the way into eastern Oregon. But I wish your voting 92 percent could be here in suburban SW Ohio.
Your story telling has become exceptional! And because my love of flowers and my previous life time as a bee I loved , “It looked like someone had tossed colorful confetti all over the city.”
Aww. Seattle's loss. It is a beautiful city. I was there for only a couple of days in 1968, so I don't know how it is now, but the sun was shining and it smelled good and the Space Needle was pretty amazing.
Reminds me of a favorite quote of dad’s : you can dress him up but you can’t take him out to dinner. Seattle put on its finest but y’all didn’t take the bait.
We so nearly ended up moving to Seattle instead of LA in 2000 and though we never regretted our choice for a moment Seattle never failed to put on its very best face every time we visited there
Yes, Seattle is too expensive and it rains all the time (allegedly) and it has a homeless problem and a "socialist" gov't that will defend your right to be whoever you are, any skin color, whatever gender, marry whomever, follow any religion, come from any nation and law enforcement at all levels in Washington State are forbidden from giving aid to ICE.

Maybe we could send a few over your way!

Thank you!

It certainly has its upsides!

Or as my grandfather used to say, “Close, but no cigar!”
Which, now that I think about it, really makes no sense….
You're making me think I should have gone to U of Wash. I can't afford to move now.
I'm sorry! No place is perfect and Seattle has pros and cons.
I've actually spent 2 weeks there (2 separate trips). Both in September. It was beautiful.
That's a good month! Trust me though, November, December, January, February, March, and often April, are not pretty!

Seattle also has orcas.
