You must have visited on the real nice days and suckered in...

I have always said that a Seattlite best friend is their travel agent. People can only take som much 54 degrees, rain and overcast that they have got to get out of town for awhile.

I've had my times (90 days without any sun is too long), but I've never taken a trip to get away from the climate for a while. Maybe it's the Scottish blood; toured Scotland one cold, drippy October and everywhere they apologized for the lousy weather. We just kept telling them, "Hey, we're from Seattle and it's just like home!"

I came up for a school visitation weekend in March. It was about 40/50 degrees maybe. The previous week I had visited Madison, WI. It was probably 10 degrees w/snow on the ground.

While I had recently spent 2 years in Ann Arbor and knew what winter was, at that time I was living in DC and had not missed winter too much. Madison was a shock and needless to say, Seattle won hands down. Personally, I can do w/o the sun everyday.
