I grew up about an hour south of seattle, and i forget sometimes until i visit my dad on a nice day.

It is! It's Right There!! It's so pretty! We're all gonna die in a river of lava one of these days!!

River of mud if you mean Rainier. But beautiful ruin nonetheless.

"the mountain is out" like you'd casually mention the Horizon Dragon occasionally appearing in the background taking a power nap

If you’re here long enough, you’ll witness the freaky phenomenon of: one day Rainier will look far away & the next day, it’s looming over the city.

Numerous times, we’ve driven around a corner & went, “Fuck! Where the hell did you come from?!”

Oh you're here for a stretch of glorious weather too!

bbolander.bsky.social•14 hours ago

yeah it has been stupid pretty the past two days

That first couple of 60 degree, sunny days always comes at this time of the year--it's a trick--but still the whole city exhales

Wait are you in my home town?

Well, if you wind up in Seattle and want a tour guide ::waggles eyebrows::

Oh yeah.

On Seattle’s horizon it’s simply beautiful.

On the horizon from thirty miles closer it’s seriously impressive, and a suitably grand reminder that Tahoma merely slumbers. And that it’ll be a very very bad no good day next time that mountain wakes up.

Haha I think I missed which mountain (we always say it about Mt Hood)

kuepker.me•12 hours ago

And indeed my bad, I’d just assumed it was Seattle with the oysters. Sometimes forget about our neighbors down there, even though Oregon’s prettier.

I'm flying in on Sun. Hoping the good weather holds.

bbolander.bsky.social•14 hours ago

how do i tell you this in such a way as to not get messenger-murdered

anniebellet.bsky.social•14 hours ago

And... I just checked the forecast. Welp good thing I like rain I guess
