Haha, it features a lot on the programmes on the food network.
Was it so good because of the burger? Or other reasons too? 0 -

I think about that burger a lot. Nothing has ever touched it. I would go there for a burger.
I just thought it was supercool. Did a lot of walking around. Felt safe, clean, but had funky edge to it and very attractive people. fab cocktail bars, proper loose leaf tea, 2 outstanding meals. It helped that the sun was shining heavily and I found a dress with flaminoes on. What it not to love?
Drove through the mountains, stopped at the place Twin Peaks is based on, over to the semi arid desert on the other side and the Columbia Gorge. Such extreme landscapes in a relatively short space of time. Wineries.
Look. I want to live there. Felt like I'd make home easily.Everything that is supposed to be in heaven is already here on earth.

DH as part of his job has been to Everett, a suburb of Seattle which is where Boeing is based. He's been a few times and loves it there. He thinks it's a lovely city, attractive, liberal thinking, interesting things to see and do.
The weather though is almost identical to London, so nothing to get excited about on that front.
Being a mega burger fan DH Is going to be gutted when I tell him about Doozer's place though. Another trip may have to be on the cards.Please stay safe in the sun and learn the A-E of melanoma: A = asymmetry, B = irregular borders, C= different colours, D= diameter, larger than 6mm, E = evolving, is your mole changing? Most moles are not cancerous, any doubts, please check next time you visit your GP.

It's working all right for me ATM.Do you know anyone who's bereaved? Point them to https://www.AtaLoss.org which does for bereavement support what MSE does for financial services, providing links to support organisations relevant to the circumstances of the loss & the local area.

Tyre performance in the wet deteriorates rapidly below about 3mm tread - change yours when they get dangerous, not just when they are nearly illegal (1.6mm).
Oh, and wear your seatbelt. My kids are only alive because they were wearing theirs when somebody else was driving in wet weather with worn tyres.
