Reply to Cost of Land Clearing by intrepidated
We’ve had 50 acres actively managed and it’s mostly break even with high quality trees to make it worth while to the loggers. This was peak lumber pricing in the summer, they’ve since fallen off a cliff.
Clearing would require a ton more work but make sure to get multiple bids. 120k / acre seems high unless it’s a ravine or something hard to work with.

I'm aware of that now. I'm just refusing to verbally concede to the angry people. I know what I have to do.
I still withstand that I didn't know the severity of what I was doing, since it hadn't been punished yet. I won't concede that

Reply to Do you prefer Washington to Massachusetts? by Clollin
Lived in Washington for 5 years, moved to New York for two years, missed Washington and moved back. I’m here now and I sort of hate it. I feel like a lot changed in the time I was gone. I feel like I missed certain aspects of it and maybe missed the nostalgia of it but that was about it. Now that I’m back I just don’t feel at home here anymore. Moving to Colorado this time next year.

It may have been the fact that it was summer, but my last visit to the ONP was ruined by the number of tourists. Too busy and noisy to enjoy much.

Port Angeles and Forks are not in the same area, just so you know. I guess they’re on the same peninsula? If you want to send me a DM with more specifics on what you’re trying to do I’d gladly help you out if I can.

If you don't mind the drive, the cabins at John Wayne RV Resort overlook Sequim Bay. Amazing view! I wake up in the morning and watch the seals play in the bay.

That's great but nature is wiping them out all on its own. Have had 20+ fall from wind or snow and a cotton just snapped 1/3 up its trunk and wiped out 7 other trees on the way down. The alders are choked out by blackberries.
The road is just a dead end to a neighbor. There's no pollution or noise where we live - this isn't a city. Houses are 1/2 mile apart at least.
The strip was left in as a privacy barrier but now it's a safety risk and impossible to maintain. I'm all for preserving nature, but this ain't one of those ecologically necessary things. I've got 1000s of other really old cedars and hemlock otherwise surrounding me.

I'm from the east coast and I prefer WA...the natural beauty is incredible, pace of life seems less hectic, everyone is a bit more relaxed in general too. However, people are more passive-aggressive and indirect. I'm sometimes bad at social cues so I have had some weird interactions before. Also the restaurants are better out east in general but the produce here and seafood are so good.

100%. Yellowstone is amazing, and it is very easy to get away from the crowds if you hike any distance at all away from the road.
Complaints like these tell me they stuck to the hotel and the boardwalks.

And DNR land, as long as you're not in a developed site like a campground.

I’d say the best is Rainier, followed by Olympic, Redwood, Everglades and Yellowstone

yes, also we could just fly to mars. again, people who can drive projects like this ("good public transportation system") are getting more interesting jobs than being in city government. IMO there is staffing problem, government positions are not able to attract quality staff, so there are a lot of incompetent useless people doing shit on tax-payers' money.

.04 is really only a limit for pilots in name. It's prohibited to fly for 8 hours after consuming alcohol or while "under the influence of alcohol" which pilots are taught includes hangovers. If you can drink, wait 8 hours, not be hungover, and still blow a .04 that would be a hell of a trick

My advice: leave the trees there. Alder and cottonwood are good native trees cleaning the air and water. If you want conifers, underplant with shade tolerant trees like western red cedar and western hemlock.
You'll also find that not only are those trees acting as a pollutant barrier, they are working as a sound barrier and wind break from the weather and road. Removing those trees is a bad idea.

Clark Lake in Kent is not off leash but has some water. Used to live nearby. Run the chance of an off leash ticket. I think it’s $134. I just put a dollar in my fine pot every time I went in case I got caught.
