Western Washington is profoundly beautiful. Unless it’s 1700 or 1980.
We know that the ≈9.0 earthquake occurred on the evening of January 26, 1700, by way of Japanese records of the resulting tsunami. (!)
Western Washington is very beautiful unless you like sunshine, in which case it's mostly depressing for somewhere between 9 and 12 months out of the year, depending on the year. There have been years where we didn't get a summer, and rolled right over into fall, which resulted in like 20 months of overcast skies and rain.
That sounds hella nice actually
All that green takes a lot of rain
You've just described the UK.
Mt. Rainier.
Absolutely stunning "when it's out" as we used to say (because of the usial cloud cover).
Good for the mountain to come out 🥰
Ooh! Mountain’s out!
That's it!
I miss the mountains of the Northwest. There’s something that remains really weird to me about how flat my stretch of the Great Lakes are, even 20 years on.
