As an aspiring photographer the lack of sun can be a little frustrating at times but I love it here. :) It doesn't get too hot in the summer and Fall is to die for! LOOVE it! Some people don't like how liberal it is here. I don't mind too much. There's tons of outdoor stuff to do. (have I sold u yet?

Not Winter. But Autumn. There's something so right, so symbolic about experiencing Autumn, so reflective about life. I miss the crsipness of the air, punctuating the end of summer by pulling out the colder season clthes, putting on a sweater, walking thru and listening to the cracle of leaves, picking out the red, orange and gold ones. So I'm planning a roadtrip with Mike and the kids up north to get me some Autumn. But I'll always be happy to call Florida Home...smile.<BR/>Fall Color Hotline: 1-800-354-4595http://www.fs.fed.us/news/fallcolors/Ericahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01044372874603678129noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8484332218191167133.post-42163569651500793812008-09-23T09:43:00.000-04:002008-09-23T09:43:00.000-04:00I'm not saying this to make you jealous, but this ...I'm not saying this to make you jealous, but this morning it was FREEZING here in Salt Lake.

I know what you mean about FL. I hate the weather here and can't wait for us to move. Portland is a nice place.

You trade sunny sweaty days for cloudy raining ones. I haven't been there much other than this time of year, but Ryan is from there and he LOVES it. I want to move to Washington I think someday. It's so Beautiful! Anyhow, I've been there 3 times now, one trip was sunny, the 2nd cold and breezy/wet in november and them this weekend...soggy, misty, refreshing and crisp!Rachelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13617669555319644156noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8484332218191167133.post-56894095697096287642008-09-22T16:13:00.000-04:002008-09-22T16:13:00.000-04:00The northwest is really nice if you can handle not...The northwest is really nice if you can handle not seeing the sun for 8 months of the year...

It only snows here two or three times a year, so when it does its a huge deal and school is canceled and everything shuts down for a day. Just enough to be fun and not a pain like it is in utah. Even better is that if you are a snow lover you have three or four huge mountains with ski resorts near by. Mt Hood is only 45 min away. <BR/>Oh yeah, besides all four seasons, we have the ocean only an hour away, the mountains an hour away, the desert an hour away and the columbia gorge which is a photographers dream less then an hour away.Beckyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10357792588735748768noreply@blogger.com
