Actual email I just sent to my hometown paper:

Hey Scott,

Can you direct me to or put the police beat from The Bridgeport Leader in the online edition? It is the best way for me to keep track of my friends and family (I’m laughing, but I’m not really kidding.)

Thanks,

Buck

We looked at a lot of places while we were out in Seattle apartment/house hunting, but nothing could prepare me for the sense of home that I felt when we pulled into the picturesque waterfront town of Edmonds on the shore of the Puget Sound.

I knew right away that this is where I wanted to live.  The water, the ferry, the mountains!  And tucked among all this was a quaint little town of wonderful restaurants, shops, and atmosphere.

Just fifteen minutes from Shannon’s new job and about the same to down-town Seattle, depending on the traffic (at least the day we were there).   It seems to be the perfect suburb.  I’m already calling it my new hometown.
