    Wife and kids leave Saturday. Only thing I had tentatively planned was to find a church for Easter. But, that can be put on hold for a week.

    Too poor to list anything interesting.
    I use that style of connectors for my winch.

    This is what I went with.
    X-Haibei Winch Quick Connect Jumper Cables Kit Trailer Plug Connectors Disconnect 2/0awg https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00L04A78U/ref=cm_sw_r_api_6o76yb6492NKJ

    They're good. However, they can be a little stubborn trying to get them to mate. So if you have limited area in there, it may be tricky at times.

    I'd also recommend dialectic greas on the connectors. Mine got a little corroded. :anonymous:

    We can all be assholes together. <3

    Even as a native Washingtonian, I can attest that it's hard to make friends here. I always just thought I was the awkward, nonsocial one. :notsure:

    Maybe the Seattle Freeze is real? All I know is I am the awkward, nonsocial one... and I also like the cold.

    No, its terrible here. I am very social, and I seem to scare people in the NW away. I think its because people are so involved with themselves that they can't be seen to care about others.

    If all else fails, burn the place down. That will definitely get their attention.

    Hush your mouth about the cold. I don't need any of that talk around here. I still haven't warmed up from my snow adventures on Saturday...

    Man, now I feel like a douchebag. I'll be extra conscious of this from now on. And to be fair, I generally like super social people because they MAKE me be social. It just doesn't come naturally to me.

    This wasn't pointed at you, more of a general theme amongst most people I meet in the greater seattle area. I know great people outside the region, most are from... not here. I think Seattle people can't take blunt facts, and don't like direct people like myself.

    It IS known as the passive-aggressive capital of earth.

    I definitely fall into the passive aggressive category at times, and absolutely in the blunt and direct categories too. I'm just gonna hold tightly to the fact that I'm in the south sound and not technically Seattle... :)

    I lived in the Milton/Edgewood area before I moved up to west Seattle. Good area and can get a decent yard for the dogs but I also made my commute at 0430 so it worked for me. Leaving a half hour later than that added quite a bit of time as @AWilson013 said. Looked at Kitsap side as well and can get a good sized yard but just happened to fall into a good spot for my dogs in West Seattle.

    I work at Boeing field (air force) and live between Renton and Covington. It is another great area, and the commute is about 30 minutes for me. So, 40 minutes to the Station via 405/5/599
