Reason 25: Evergreen State, I love Green Trees and Blue Water

 Rocky Mountain is awe-inspiring, California Dessert is breathtaking, New York City is bustling.....

I'm fully soaked and embrace myself when I am in a new city and surrounding.  

But despite my excitement and eagerness to explore, after a week or two, I start to miss the green forests, fresh after-rain air, and blue ocean water.

If I must name a few things that I would never be tired of seeing, it would be green trees and blue ocean water.  What was exactly what I searched when my husband asked me whether or not I wanted him to accept the job offer and move to Seattle.  "Well, it's by the water, and lots of trees, so sure, why not!" answered I.  

Though the reality was quite different from what I originally painted in my head,  looking back, I started to feel, Washington State is beautiful and I actually love living here.



Reason 24: Dogs are welcome in State Parks

 I mean dogs ARE welcome in Washington State Parks, not just on paved roads, in car parks and campgrounds, but also on trails and beaches.

I had always taken this "dog right" for granted, until, when I was holidaying in California, and realised Jasper, my baby boy, was not allowed in most of the state parks and sandy beaches.

Although we did have a good vacation with some sandy beach water fun, thanks to the google search and help from the locals, this got me to re-think how awesome Washington State Parks are!

It is true that beaches, even ocean beaches, in Washington State, are not the same look and feel as the sandy beaches in California, but the fury family members don't have to be left home in a sunny and warm day when sea breezes and ocean waves sound so inviting!
