My family and I just fled Washington under exact same circumstances last year for same reasons and wanted to watch my six grandchildren grow up in safe environment. I was born in and live my first 50 years in Washington and am third generation from there on both sides. I love what Washington was, but sure not what it has turned into. They have destroyed my once beautiful home We moved to Missouri. Just steer clear of the big cities and it’s wonderful and beautiful .This is God’s country here with loads of space and wonderful friendly people and freedom. Great farmland and the Amish still have their own freeway lane for their horse and buggy. We bought a gorgeous 37 acre farm for half what our 6 acre home in Washington was with alot more to offer. I do miss the ocean and mountains but until and unless things change and get cleaned up, they aren’t currently worth the bother. Too much pollution in more ways than one! my younger brother took his family and bought a small farm in South Dakota.
