After four years in Chicago and six months on the road, I’m now thoroughly enjoying the life I’m making for myself in Seattle. I’ve been here since February, and I couldn’t have picked a better place. The move from Reno to Chicago in 2007 made me realize how much I love the mountains, the amount of water was a very pleasant surprise! Everybody warned me that I wouldn’t like the weather, but I find myself taking advantage of those rare sunny days rather than taking them for granted. And I’m hoping the famous Seattle summers aren’t just hype…
