Washington is Great

[Irrelevant]

For those who think there's nothing good in the evergreen state.



















My choice to live here was deliberate. After working and traveling all over the west, when I put all of the various pebbles on their respective side of life's balance beam, this place tipped the furthest towards happiness.

From clamming in Kalaloch to hunting wapiti outside Walla Walla it's a pretty rad state.

I'm glad you like it.

Plus the incredible deep sea fishing. Life is what you make of it and it's clear you're making the most of it for you and your family. Well done.

Now do the open air drug use, out of control politicians, soft on crime policies, homeless, taxes, etc. you know, the day to day lives of Washingtonians.

This place could be incredible. You have posted a highlight reel.

The old growth trees you can stumble upon here are pretty incredible.

But it's not just a highlight reel. I literally have 1,000s of similar ones. I could have taken more this morning just up the canyon. To paint an entire state based on a few bad areas seem to be more deliberately ignorant than honest.

You have described every state in the Union. It seems a bit narrow minded to point a finger at any one particular state.

I agree @Irrelevant, Washington offers a very broad spectrum for the outdoor loving people. Sometimes it is hard to focus on the good things and spectacular scenery when it seems we are at odds daily with others that want to keep us from enjoying it.

Every state has some good things to offer. Glad you are finding it in yours instead of dwelling on the negative. Life is what you make it. @Irrelevant

I don't think what some see as negative are negative for him. I might be putting words in his mouth though.

If Washington, Oregon, or California had the population and politics of Montana, I would never think of living in MT.

But, Montana has Rocky Mountain oysters instead of clams…
