What I love most about living here in Northwest Washington is getting to experience its unique combination of civilization and wilderness. Day in and day out might be spent in the fray of urban life—which I admit I’m crazy about—yet, all I have to do is hop on my bicycle and within minutes I’m on the shores of Puget Sound, where it is so easy to escape the noise and chaos of the city. Well, forget this Zen-like, evergreen rain forest beauty. I’ve been reading Cormac McCarthy’s The Crossing, which takes place on the arid, hot-as-an-anvil border between Mexico and New Mexico. Makes me really appreciate the Pacific Northwest….

Ciao for niao,

Josh
