As much as we love and are frustrated by moving to Hoquiam and the slow construction, we are haunted by the "what-ifs". If we had stayed a bit longer, we coulda hooked up with Freeway Blogger. If we had stayed, the buses would run every 6 minutes! The school across the valley, would become an awesome museum, that attracts authors and important speakers to the neighborhood! That nasty smelly Goodwill I've been shopping at for 28 years? Re-developed! The seldom noticed fruit stands I love? Just drive right on past. There's going to be a Target on Dearborn! a-a-And, then we can move the car over to the other end of the parking lot so's we can go to the other stores. Yeah, walkable neighborhoods.
Welcome to Seattle! It looks just like Scottsdale!
We'll come back and visit, but the neighbors have left the neighborhood.
*if you look way over in the left corner, you woulda seen our roof, before it was bulldozed for 4 cute Bungalows!
