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!"

You sound like my good friend Mr. Morgan who still lives there. He loved to talk about his scottish heritage. If you have frequented the Highland events over there and play the pipes you probably know him. He looks like Santa Claus....

I was raised in Vancouver, USA (Washington) and moved overhere in 1978. When we moved to Bothell we could never get used to the weather. We actually did more when we went there to visit than we did after we moved there. It was always so depressing that we just decided to stay home once we fought all the traffic....

Except when we went to Husky Football games that is. Football the way it was meant to be played...
