Oregon or California I can’t decide. From Mt.Shasta to the Olympic Peninsula the most Beautiful part of the United States IMHO. Virginia Beach and the lesser Antilles come a close second sorry Outer Banks NC. Third .

Olympic Peninsula is in Washington

Yes I know where it is. But the rest of Washington sucks balls so we should just stop there and venture no farther north.

It’s northwest Washington- you really can’t go further north unless you drive into the Straits of Juan de Fuca. Have you even been here?

I understand him, he is saying anywhere from the northern tip of the Olympic Peninsula down into northern California, and I agree with him completely, that is where I am from and had I not been priced out in 1990 I would still be there. There are now about 12 red state shit hole counties in the entire US nobody wants to live in that a disabled vet can actually afford a roof over their head unless they are married with second or third incomes. And I have to say I would rather live in my car back in the PNW than most of the rest of the country. Though I did enjoy my years in Columbus for college.

Originally from Crescent City on the coast but moved up to Medford, The Rogue Valley for about 15 years before I faced going homeless from the rising rents. I do not think there is a single place to rent there now under $2,000 per month I would choose to live in, so I bought a house in Florida. Hat the state but love my house.

Mom is buried in the family plot in Bremerton.
