The Good Winter
Jan 18, 2017
There was a leetle, teeny bit of snow in Seattle, and then a taste of sun. Fine winter days.
But that was then; now, the snow has melted and it's raining hard, and predictions are that it will rain forever. It's easy to see why Lewis and Clark, after they spent a long, wet winter in the Pacific Northwest, judged their entire expedition a failure; this part of the world that they'd struggled so hard to "discover" was chilly and gray and mildewy and just plain unliveable.
