@Eric Belgau Thanks for the heads up on the soil. I'll keep that in mind going forward.
@Alex Koerger Bummer about the Ale House, but it sounds like there's a few alternatives. Might have to plants a few hops in the garden.
@Brandon Turner Definitely will be in touch. We interestingly were perusing farmland listings out in the Montesano area to start a bison ranch as part of a "semi" retirement plan down the road. Sounds like there's a bit to learn about Tacoma so I'll use the next few months to do some studying and couple that with an on the ground assessment when we get there. We'll take the rain over the east coast humidity any day of the week. So over it...
@Stephanie Dupuis Thanks for the welcome! My first trip ever to Washington was to the Bremerton area and it was awesome. So much to do up there and just a ferry ride away from Seattle.
Thank you all for the warm welcomes. It's making us even more excited to get up there.
