Washington, Almost

2015 was the year we almost moved to Washington State, to a town near Seattle.  The beauty of that area--on a sunny day in February, cold and bright--has returned to my thoughts quite often this year.  I still peruse the real estate listings for that area.

The San Francisco Bay Area has far more sunny days, but the sunny days in Washington are more spectacular--and more precious, I'm sure, to the inhabitants of that region.  Could I withstand all the rain and gloom?  Or would I long for this drought-stricken, sun-soaked state?

I might never know.  But I do know that the idea of a couple of acres and a house with a view of Puget Sound (for half or a third of the price of houses around here) has a hold on my imagination.
