Fun fact: I arrived in Everett, Washington on May 5, 1998 when
USS Rodney M. Davis (FFG 60) changed homeport from Commander, Fleet Activities Yokosuka, Japan to Naval Station Everett.
After turning 21 in Washington and completing a WESTPAC deployment, I applied for and got my CPL (1-day turnaround, courtesy of Sherrif Rick Bart)
Before I seperated from the Navy, I changed my legal residence from The People's Republic of New Jersey to Washington.
I registered to vote in Washington.
After I seperated from the Navy, I enlisted in the Washington Air National Guard.
Shit, it sounds like I have Evergreen blood running through my veins, right?
The farthest east I have been in this state is a toss-up between Winthrop or Vantage (I'm too damn lazy to break out a map / GPS to see which).
Ludefisk? Why?
If the sign says "Speed Limit 60", why are you doing 45 in the left lane?
I don't ski.
I still don't own tire chains. Nor do I have studded tires.
It's past my bedtime. . .
