[cherrykat99]

Got to learn to love it sometime, rains cool.

 

[Moros]

I don't love it, but I've lived here all my life.

 

[faith renewal]

I love Washington, although I'm partial to eastern Washington myself. But we've got the best people here in WA!!!

 

[Saint2be27]

Amen Faith! I love eastern Washington also! I am from there, and hope to return again someday soon.

 

[wungfu]

Washington is great, I love the atmosphere about it. THe only thing that kinda annoys me is that, hardly any of my Fav. Bands come and tour here.

 

[Saint2be27]

Very true Wungfu, in fact...I've never even been to a concert, and I'm 27 *gasp*


It is very slow on the concert spectrum.

 

[wungfu]

I think the only time some bands come is during Creation Fest around here

Hi all!
I'm a newbie from The Gorge. I live on the WA side.
I would love to hear from other Christians in my area! You are soooo HARD to find!

Hi Blessedbyhimmom, I'm about an hour or two away ( I think?) I live near the Tri-Cities.

Nice to meet you.

 

[blessedbyhimmom]

Hi Saint;

It would be about 3, we live down near stevenson.
I used to live closer to Hood River.

Hiya neighbor!

 

[wungfu]

Is anybody around Kelso, Washington?

 

[GodICallToYou]

I'm from Olympia. I've been here my whole life, there aren't many Christians at my school, so I suppose there wouldn't be many in other places either.....well, I would look for a church to go to and make some friends if I were you, blessedbyhimmom.

Who loves Washington?

Not me. Moved here about a year and a half ago to be closer to family and I’m hating it. Reasons:



1) Only 3 months out of the year are actually nice



2) There is no one my age around. Mostly older retired people



3) Its a military state



4) It gets old seeing nothing but big trees



5) There are no jobs



6) It is very expensive to live (Seattle is the most expensive city in the U.S)



7) No single women (that aren’t over weight or that have less than two kids)



8) People tend to stay inside 9 months out of the year



9) The only big cities are Seattle and Tacoma



10) Washington has the largest population of witches and similar type groups ect



11) Washington has the least amount of Christians in the U.S



12) Washington has a large amount of gays and lesbians.



But, if you’re married, make a decent amount of money, and like the outdoors, I guess it would be ok. Basically if you’re a single male this place is not for you.

 

[Saint2be27]

Joel...you are cracking me up.

I agree with most of that if your from the Coast...err west side of the state. Have you been to Spokane? It's not better than Tacoma or Seattle necessarily but it's different. The Tri-Cities is desert (ick).

"7) No single women (that aren’t over weight or that have less than two kids)" I am still laughing over this one. It was hard to find a good guy also, I had to go out of state to get one (Idaho).

[PapaLandShark]

Both my wife and I have lived in or around Seattle for our entire lives. We've contemplated moving to another state and have even taken a look elsewhere while on vacations...But both of us feel a profound sense of relief when returning. The beauty of this area puts me in a state of Awe...I feel blessed to live here.

 

[eviltangerine]

yea, I'll give you the "least Christians anywhere", Joel...I've lived in Bellevue, WA (western wa) and didn't think anything of it, came to the midwest for school (IIT, in Chicago) and oh my gosh -- it's like a friggin' explosion of religious people.

Very surprising. Also, your political spectrum in Western Wash is shifted to the left

 

[GasTank]

1) Only 3 months out of the year are actually nice

GODS THE WEATHER MAN, SO TALK TO HIM!

2) There is no one my age around. Mostly older retired people

WHAT PART OF WASHINGTON ARE YOU IN?

3) Its a military state

REALLY DIDN'T NOTICE!

4) It gets old seeing nothing but big trees

EASTERN WASHINGTONIS DESERT!

5) There are no jobs

LIKE WERE THE ONLY STATE! I'VE GOT WORK!

6) It is very expensive to live (Seattle is the most expensive city in the U.S)

THERES MORE CITIES THEN JUST SEATTLE!

7) No single women (that aren’t over weight or that have less than two kids)

WE'RE BIG ON FAMILY. NO SINGLE WOMAN?.....HUMBUG!

8) People tend to stay inside 9 months out of the year

RIGHT......NOT!

9) The only big cities are Seattle and Tacoma

RENTON, OLIMPIA,YAKOMA,EVERETT,BELLEVUE,BELLINGHAM,ETC.

10) Washington has the largest population of witches and similar type groups ect

THE REST OF THE WORLDS GOT UM!

11) Washington has the least amount of Christians in the U.S

OREGON GOT LESS!

12) Washington has a large amount of gays and lesbians.

SAN FRANCISCO'S GOT MORE!


SO REALLY WASHINGTON IS JUST THE SAME AS THE REST OF THE WORLD,
OR MAYBE THE REST OF THE WORLD IS JUST THE SAME AS WASHINGTON.

My wife also went out of state *LOL* She got me to move up from Texas and I've never been happier.
