It’s still in the Peoples Republic of Washington. Just a few miles east and you would be in the free state of Idaho, yet close enough to easily access certain things that only a bigger city will have. Born and raised in Washington, considered it the best state in the country, now utterly ruined by one party Demoncrat rule. It’s North Commiefornia, another beautiful state destroyed by the Demoncrat minions of the father of lies.
I did live in Priest River, Idaho for a few years when my daughter and son-in-law had a beautiful home on ten acres on the other side of the river.
Then a friend called me from WA, said he knew a person with a terrific house on a fenced-in acre on Bainbridge Island. Drove over to look, perfect place for me, my dog and two cats. After the pets died 14 years later, , I couldn’t stand the place, moved to Spokane. South Hill, reasonably safe, nice friends, great stores nearby. Enjoy living here.Never going to move again. Sad, in a way, that I’m outliving lots of friends. .
But gotta stay alive for years because no one else could put up with my b@tchy kitty who bites me every day.
