1. Where do you live? Lake Stevens, Washington (about 45 minutes north of Seattle if traffic loves you)
2. Do you like the climate? Is it very humid or rainy or what? I like extreme heat, so I find it too cold here most of the time (It's almost 70 right now, and I'm wearing a sweater). But everyone else I know loves it. It never gets too hot, there's snow for maybe a few days or a week out of the year, and the rain is pretty mild most of the time. My only gripe about the rain is that is slows traffic.
3. What are summmers like? Winters? Summers, sunny, not too hot, don't last long enough. Autumn is beautiful. There are so many trees, and I love when they all start changing. Winter is pretty cold, but it doesn't snow a whole lot. It gets really foggy, which I love.
4. Do you have hazardous weather, IE, every year for three months your trailer park is torn up by tornadoes and then you go on TV and cry about it? Not really. We get some strong windstorms and maybe a week or two in winter where there might be ice on the road. One year in the six I've lived here had a really bad winter where I couldn't get to work because the freeway was iced over.
5. Do you have public transportation? Is it expensive? Is it incompetent? Is it gross? The public transportation here is pretty good. There are a ton of bus stops, and a new park and ride was just put up in town. You can go pretty much anywhere by bus if you have to. There's a train that can take you to Seattle. It's not very expensive. For buses, I thought they were pretty clean and decent. And you can usually arrange for carpools if you have a car.
6. What do you like about where you live? The scenery. It's pretty up here. It's getting a little crowded with more people migrating north, but it's still kind of out of the way and smallish. I love all the trees and hills. From here, it doesn't take much to find a place to go hiking or jump on a ferry and visit one of the islands.
7. What is lame about where you live? Be honest, you know in your heart it's lame. Traffic. There is sooo much traffic. It's gets frustrating if you have to drive a lot. And also, it's a bit of a drive to get anywhere. To get to the main freeway, you have to either drive all the way up and through Marysville, or all the way down and over the trestle.
8. Do you want to share an apartment with me? And subject yourself of the chaos that is Jarod and Jada? However, we do have a spare room that is never in use, and slightly furnished, that we have rented out from time to time.
