Great effort Chexfan. As a Seattle escapee (me) to Bellingham, you have covered just about everything I know about the Emerald City. With the Olympics coming, you might include a little about little ole Bellingham as it is certainly growing, is the last stop before Canada and has some pretty cool things to see and do. If interested PM me and I will be glad to give you some info. I also did a long message on a thread with hints about crossing the border into BC which I can send you also.
