Exhume - I think you would really love it here - you sound like the kind of guy that would enjoy our rivers, lakes, and especially the mountains. When you live on the west side of the Cascades you are really quite close to either mountains or ocean - take your pick. And then we have the Sound and Hood's Canal, too. Although I am not a scuba diver, we have a friend who brings us some terrific fish he spears. And then there are the oysters, shrimp and Dungeness Crab.
