I live in the Great Pacific Northwest.
Blue state

So again another school shooting...I'm in my 40s and we had 0 school shooting in our s hooks back home or any type of killing in the schools. I've lived in the US for 20 years I've seen too many to remember. Very sad!!!
Idaho is a blue state? Eastern Oregon, Eastern Washington are very red. Looks like you don’t understand the Pacific Northwest.
Do you have a port on the Pacific? No
Why do you need a port? The ocean is ok however, I love my snow, my low humidity 80-85 degree summers, if I want I can drive four hours to see the ocean, I go about every three or four years not that excited about it. I’m 30 minutes away from skiing, great friendly and caring people of our great city, a short commute, great minor league sports teams, lots of animals in the area. Last year a moose came right up to the window at work. if I wanted rain and traffic, I’d live on the west side. A day’s ride to Yellowstone, I love that park, we go almost every year. We have a nice theme park nearby, that is cool. Broadway plays, theatre, several major colleges nearby, no traffic, I have it all here, why would I want to live in an area that lives on stress.
