My first trip to Arlington was in 1990, wouldn't recognize the place today if that had been the last trip.
We've had a great five years out here and are getting out just as the traffic mess from Seattle is finally reaching us.
Jeff,
Can understand that ... I graduated from High School in 1960 so you can imagine how much it has changed since then ... well maybe not ;D
I still have relatives out at Tulalip west of Marysville ... Seattle used to be a separate entity, like you say it all blends together now.
Darrington used to be a long rough road from Arlington, now it is practically next door. I still remember an article written tongue in cheek years ago that was in the Arlington Times about the road to Darrington. Supposedly someone had a few too many to drink and managed to drive back to Arlington on the railroad tracks and was remarking how much they had improved the road. :
Oh well, things will never be the same huh. ;D
take care,
Howard
