The Valley

I live in the Wenatchee valley in Washington state.  300 plus days of sunny weather every year and recreation of every type.  In the summer you can do the mountain hiking or find a great body of water to enjoy. The temperature in the summer can be a bit hot so the water sports are quite popular....boating..jetskis...fishing...and of course just working on the tan.  Hunting is a favorite pastime of many also.....Deer...Elk....Bear.....all in abundance if you know where to look.  Winter sport lovers have many things to choose from....Skiing...Cross Country skiing.....snowmobiling...ice fishing.  If you like being outside then this area is awesome year round.  We are only a couple of hours away from the large urban area of the Puget Sound......Seattle...Everett...Tacoma. Spokane lies about 3 hours in the other direction. The state is divided down the middle by the Cascade mountain range including Mt Ranier and Mt St Helens as well as Mt Baker to the North.  I moved over here about 6 years ago from the busy side of the mountains and i dont have a single regret. The pace of things is alot more relaxed here and you can actually travel at least 60 miles at 60 mph.
