Hey there! Marge from Seattle, hoping to do the STP in July 2005 (Seattle to Portland) for the first time,
arthritic knees, and all! I'm 48 and grateful to live in Seattle for the past 27 years instead of my beloved New Jersey, land of my childhood, which is too dang cold!!!! stumbled on your wonderful posts
by happenstance. lots of great information. One of the nicest things about living in Seattle, you can ride your bike in winter which I really appreciate. Now if I could only convince my neighbors the weeds in
my yard are "natural landscaping" (ha ha)
