As I sit in my living room, looking out the window, I see a beautiful blue sky and lots of green plants. I live in a suburb of Seattle.
I will admit, though, that starting in November, we get a lot of rain; and, that we do have our fair number of foggy days. However, it is not always like that; but, we like to tell other people that it is so they won't come here.
I just watched a full day of gray and rain. Chicago area sucks too. About the same rainfall inches per year but more sunny days.
