    I'm Jaq. I currently reside in Seattle. I grew up in the Yakima Valley and the Columbia Basin (where there is not plentiful rain, FYI). I'm probably the only Seattlite who prefers the rain, but I still freeze every summer, except for during that one week in August.

    hi everyone! I'm in Salem, and just discovered the groups portion of this site! I'm hoping this can help me connect with some people nearby that want to meet up for hikes/jogs, etc....I've tried everything I can think of, meetup.com, craigslist, facebook groups, just can't seem to connect with anyone into fitness that is near me! all my friends here just want to eat and drink beer, I need some active people in my life!!!

    Hi, I'm Jill, and I live in Puyallup. I've been here since 1989.

    I was born in Salem and have also lived in Portland, Federal Way, Auburn and Edgewood. My husband recently took a new job in Woodinville, so the plan is to move that direction after our son graduates high school (June 2013).

    I'm Dave, and I live in Mount Vernon, about half way between Seattle and the border with British Columbia. I was born and raised in Indiana (a great place to be FROM), and went to college in California. The Navy sent me to Whidbey Island in 1982 and I never left.

    Hey - I'm a transplanted Canadian currently living in Everett (Ever-wet!)
    I love the rain...for the first few weeks, then it's time to think about making that move south...until the summer comes when there's no better place in the world to be!!

    Oh I'm so excited to find this group! I was beginning to think I was the only person in the area here! I live and work in Tacoma but have grown up in the PNW my whole life (Des Moines, Kent, Federal Way, etc.). Went to college in Oregon so I've really not been far from the beauty here.

    This will be great to connect with people locally for upcoming events!!
