1 year agoHey, North Salem! South Salem here. :)
For me, we moved here from Montana a bit over a decade ago. Interviewed for a job in January, and they asked me if I was still interested, having now experienced the typical dreary 50 degree weather. I explained to them that the HIGH when I left Montana was -20. Like, the day had to work hard to get UP to twenty below.
You don’t realize how many shades of green there are till you spend some time in the PNW. :)
So far it’s not the heat, it’s the pollen that’s terrible.
