Im basically looking for the best bang for my buck i could guess you could say.. I will TOTALLY be contacting them and hopefully stopping by for a visit if they will be open the saturday and sunday im visiting

people crack me up what think west seattle is "out of the way". there are several direct busses to go downtown. we have the water taxi- 12 minutes from alki to downtown. the rents are reasonable. we have the beach, the junction, a lot of restaurants and bars. but that's fine...more room for us.

Busses only run 'til 12:30 AM and the water taxi only operates during the summer.

If you walk or bicycle from there to downtown, you have to go through the icky no-man's-land industrial area.

Alki and Lincoln Park are cool.

But really, when I used to deliver permits, I felt more uncomfortable in areas of West Seattle than I did Lakewood - and they always film Cops in Lakewood. :eek:

What are you crazy? COME VISIT US! You've got two days, you can devote one to look at campuses, and the other to party! We've already told you you've got a few tour guides around here! Plus, you'll be here right when NIN plays the Key, talk about good timing!

that's right!!! you and Swede were there. Purp and I hit the Sox game and suffering from jet lag and heat, I dozed off during the 7th inning!!!

Damn, my family is all on this coast and my dogs are a bit old to be transferring them across country....but this talk fans my independent feathers for me to wander that way. Perhaps a few years from now, when my girls are (sadly) gone, I'll make the trek to live on the West Coast for a bit....bring up a couple more pups out there.

I'll make some room for ya for when you come thru

jetlag like a MUTHAFUCKA...that shits crazy...I was shot when I arrived and high as fuck trying to stay up?!?!? I couldnt find a bed fast enough that night

Mandi...my sis goes after I told her that youre visiting Seattle and San Diego for a few days

"Its her 1st exposure out there????"
"She is NOT gonna wanna come back."
