    New in Western Washington

    Howdy. I've been peeking at this site for years, but my wife and I have been renting all that time while "building a house"...a project which never went anywhere due to time and budget problems. May be familiar to some of you?! I have had one damp carport and a large, totally packed 12 x 30...
