-Ninja_Jesus- Posted October 21, 2021 Posted October 21, 2021 My wife and her family decided it’s too expensive to live in Hawaii, so we’re going to live near Seattle where they have family. I’m pretty excited, I love the cold and I can’t wait to get off the island. It’s heaven for tourists, but locals are slowly getting priced out, especially with all the shipping delays and price hikes of goods. So what are cool places to go in Washington? Either food or physical activity-wise. I’m sure I won’t have a lot of time to explore once I get a job so I’d like to have at least an outline of what to do when I get there. 1
Doom Metal Alchemist Posted October 21, 2021 Posted October 21, 2021 Congrats! I know you’ve been wanting to escape Hawaii for quite some time.
tsar4 Posted October 21, 2021 Posted October 21, 2021 40s F isn't exactly "cold". FYI - they're calling for a wetter winter in that area because of La Niña.

My dad was born in Hawaii and lived there until his family moved to Cali when he was a teen. Said he never owned a jacket until moving to Cali. 1

Expand I used to allocate apparel to stores in that area. They complained when I sent winter coats there because the winters weren't as harsh as Chicago & the stuff just sat on the rack. I get it's an acclimation thing, but still, a couple weeks straight in the 20s F and you'd be out in a windbreaker in the 40s.
Seight Posted October 22, 2021 Posted October 22, 2021 I hear trying to take over parts of Seattle is a fun hobby. 3

I have been training though, working in the freezer section of a large warehouse store helps.

Clownpernicus Posted October 29, 2021 Posted October 29, 2021 You're either brave or stupid. Most people are fleeing liberal blue city hellholes. Oh well, to each his own. Try not to get robbed or shot.
