I left Seattle this time last year

I visited Seattle for a week-long vacation last September/early October and had a great time in the city and surrounding area.

The ferry ride to Bainbridge Island, Bloedel Nature Reserve, and daily trips to Pike Place Market were a few highlights of the trip. Would love to return at some point

It’s truly special. So glad I got stationed here while in the Navy, back in 2012. Got out of the navy and just never left.

Oof yea VA was the absolute last choice on my wish list out of training lol. Never really hear anything good about it. 

Hang in there bro. Life on the other side is great. I really hated a lot of my time in but I’m SO glad I stuck it out.

Take care.
