Yea, at times I miss Seattle, but I think what I miss is the memory of the old Seattle. Pre-apocalypse Seattle.

I hear from old colleges, across the lake Bellevue/Redmond is still pretty nice. (But of course, expensive.)

Exactly how I feel.

When I was in IT I bicycle commuted to my work location. I lived in Bellevue, Mercer Island, Renton and Kent during the last 20 years I was there and bicycled to Boeing in Renton, Nordstrom and Washington Mutual in downtown Seattle, B of A in Tukwilla, T-mobile in Bellevue and Safeco in the U District. It kept me in shape, but it became too dangerous, thanks to cell phones and, especially, texting.

When I visit the old areas now, they are all just way too congested and, well, not very friendly.
