You can thank Weyerhaeuser for a century of planting monoculture to feed their sawmills.

Totally. Same reason sequoias will start to die or fall over up here. Western WA is too damp. They like the dry soil of The Sierras.

TRAFFIC in Hawaii is a godamn nightmare. You go in, and they’ll print you a temp DL on paper, then you’ll get your real one in the mail.

Shelton schools are fucked. My in-laws caught their kids with weed. In middle school.

I’d even take Bremerton over Shelton. The crime rate is about the same. More to do and less redneck and Podunk. At least in Bremerton, you can hop on the ferry to Seattle to spend a day.

The three worst are Snohomish, Spokane, and Cowlitz.

I have in laws over there. Their neighbors are still rocking Trump banners across the front of their house.

There’s not many homeless because the cops beat the shit out of them.

Correct. They actually MOVED the police station because it was across the street from the bus station the Prison dumps off convicts with nowhere to go.

Gas is cheaper at the Aberdeen Safeway than it is in Port Angeles. Either way, you want to top off before you get out on the coast. Aberdeen is also well known for its serial killers.

LOL what’s right about Aberdeen is the proper question.

The first time I witnessed some guy smoking meth out of a broken lightbulb in public was in Belfair. That was in 1993. I can’t imagine how bad it’s gotten today.

The schools suck. The culture is shitty. Very redneck. The cops are dicks. You’re a long-ass drive from everywhere. Excellent Mexican food though.

I was hoping for something exciting like a Nudibranch or a California Stickapus. Instead I got a piece of kelp.

Reddit ruined it. It’s scattered with trash and Green Diamond ripped up all the wooded ties.

Just FYI if you visit: bring a sun hat, sunblock, and a shitload of water and snacks. There’s zero shade out on the flats. The nearest restaurant is all the way down in Cougar, and they take tourists to the cleaners. Same with gas. Fill up in Woodland, Kalama, or Castle Rock. Before anything else, call USFS Gifford Pinchot in Vancouver for road conditions. They can be pretty rough.
E: If you know where to look on Johnston Ridge, there’s a very small marker where Johnston was sitting when he got obliterated.

It’s actually grown back significantly since 1980. Watched it happen. I got to watch her erupt again in 2006. She seems to have chilled out for now.

I wandered into McHales rocking an ass-length ponytail. I thought I was about to die. I bought the only bottle of Budweiser I’ve ever had since 3rd grade, pounded it and GTFO. I thought I was a goner.
There was another shithole dive called The Pegasus that I went to with a bunch of Puyallup tribal members, and it was ok. I went there alone a couple weeks later, and the bartender told me to get out while I still could. It was a “run while you still have legs” warning. She gave me a coupon on a coaster for the rum and coke I ordered. I still have it. It’s been 30 years.

Build a kennel and don’t let them indoors.
Period. They’re animals, not people. They have nice warm fur coats. They will wallow in cow shit and dead fish if given the opportunity. They will even eat human shit.

He split as soon as he had a car and gas money. Those hick assholes just use him as a tourist draw.
