We've had a good bit of time to get out and explore the area. We arrived Thursday afternoon and immediately started house hunting with our Realtor the following day, we definitely didn't want to waste any time on that! In the afternoon we usually take a drive and see what little town we come across. Washington state is definitely like no other place we've ever lived before. In fact, in a lot of ways it reminds us of Ohio. Very small town feel, lots of green everywhere you and just a whole lot of wide open spaces! So far we've ventured out to Bremerton, where Tim's ship is and where he will be working; Port Orchard, a great little town that we hope to find our home in; Silverdale, the more commercial area (where you can find the mall and most of your shopping and restaurants); Gig Harbor and Poulsbo, which are two quaint little towns on the water.
Another small town find, a tractor at the local market!
The view from the Manchester neighborhood in Port Orchard, the Seattle skyline off in the distance!
Downtown Poulsbo...quite possibly the cutest little town I've ever seen in my life! Lots of boutiques, coffee shops, antique stores, bakeries, book stores...all so adorable!
