mattinctown, how do you like living in Seattle? Thought it was a pretty cool city when I visited there about 4 years ago, even though it rained every day.

Well, I have mixed feelings about it. The scenery is just amazing, with Mt. Rainier, the Oregon Coast, Olympic National Park, etc.... I like the music scene and the number of smaller, indie movie theatres. It rains almost constantly from November-April however. Summers are gorgeous though.
What I don't like is the cost of living/housing, the traffic, and I don't like the people here. Very passive aggressive, and rude. That's why I am leaving, I'm too used to friendly Ohioans that say Hi when you walk down the street :)
It's a great city to visit, but there are better places to live IMO.

I can't remember the name of my street, lol. We lived there for about 9 months while our house in Plymouth was being rebuilt after a fire. I was only there 6ish months because I went away for school before it was finished. I mean..having fast food nearby was nice but other than that I'll stick with my smaller town, haha.

My aunt and uncle lived in plymouth while I was growing up. Used to go to the Pool all the time. The Plymouth Pool had the really high diving board if I remember.

Ahh, the good ol days. I miss living in a Small town, if I could actually find a good job that pays what I make now, I would easily move to a small town like that or Shelby when I was there.
