You have one goal. You are brand new to Seattle!

You have 52 weeks.

You have one 9 year old girl with a love for life and one 13 year old son who thinks he has seen it all ... and a 42 year old wife who isn't afraid of new things or experiences.... You have to show them 1 new thing every weekend to make them think, "i'm glad we moved here - this is very cool."

Diffuculty; can't repeat for 51 weeks.

What say you? WHAT SAY YOU?

If you are or have been serving our great country and sacrificed your family life I hope you take advantage of every minute you can and enjoy ... you deserve it. Again I apologize

Move the tulips to April. You can go to the tulip festival website before you go and they'll tell you what fields are in bloom.

This thread is a great example that the Seattle area and W. Washington are not boring. Plenty to do. Ignore the weather, as most natives do.
