Pretty pic but if I see a stranger snapping pics of my yard, I’ll instantly double my age and snap “get off my lawn!”, probably while assaulting said stranger with additional taunts and produce past its prime.

Haha that's fair, I think somewhere this urban you kind of expect it though (also I took this from a sidewalk, no trespassing!)

I thought I told you to stay out of there!

You're not my supervisor!

Love the shot.

Does it stay that green and lush out there year round? You guys truly live in heaven. Connecticut is a dead, dry, sepia toned nightmare and will be until the end of April :-(

Literally everywhere has its trade offs. ~Oct-July is cool and wet. This year has been colder and snowier already than it normally is, and we had a major ice storm that sent the region into a shitshow frenzy. Wrecks all over the place, airport turns to madness (it usually is anyway), mountain passes close but there’s huge pile ups. Seattle and metro has a LOT of hills making navigation really dicey and dangerous. But It does stay green in winters especially since we are the Evergreen State - with so much coniferous growth in our landscape. Also, ~July-Oct is intense sun, heat, drought and wildfire season come fall. 2021 we had a deadly heatwave. Last summer 2022 we broke records for days 90F or over. The region is catching up with new builds but barely half of people have air conditioned homes. All the greenery ends up looking so limp, dull and thirsty, and grass gets burned to a crisp in very dry summers. Get choked out by smoky poor air quality towards the end, like we did for nearly 2 months last Sept-Oct. I “fear” that time of year because the smoke can make you feel like absolute garbage. The Olympic Peninsula, way West region of the state, is a temperate rainforest and stays the greenest. East of the Cascade range in Eastern WA is a completely different climate than Seattle/Puget Sound. That said, I grew up in the Midwest though so not as cold or snowy is appreciated.

You have some really spectacular pics on your profile. I saw that you’ll be of to CT with Bok Obama and his cabinet… good luck!

Thank you! We're planning on returning in 3 years time but I'm excited for this new adventure, not as excited about hauling 40 chickens across the country but they're family

Yeah, we were just doing some light gardening today. Some things do die back, but there's a whole lot of green left.

Very pretty!

Last I checked, Seattle is a city in Washington.

I am not sure what the bee in your bonnet is about this is..? I posted a pic of WA's best known city in a sub dedicated to WA.

I think you need to take a nap my friend, not sure why this has you so up in arms. I posted a picture of WA in the WA sub. I'm not in either Seattle sub because I don't live in Seattle.
