Hello,
and welcome to the Flatlander's Guide!
First of all, you may be
wondering what a "flatlander" is. I used to
consider myself a mid-western girl, but since I moved from
Kansas to the Pacific Northwest, I consider myself a
flatlander. (If you have ever been through Kansas you know
exactly what I mean.) Don't get me wrong, Kansas is a
wonderful place to call home, and the people there are among
the friendliest you may find, but if mountain and water
views are what you are after, the Pacific Northwest is the
place to be.
I made my first visit here in
March of 1998 for a business conference and was amazed at what
I found. I barely had time to take in the sites, but just a
visit to Pike Place Market and a glimpse of Whidbey was
enough to decide that this area deserved some extended
personal investigation. I made my move to Washington six month's later, much to
the surprise of my friends back home.
My objective for this Guide is
to share a pictorial view and the experiences from someone who
is seeing it for the first time! It appears that this task
could keep me busy for a LONG TIME. I'm expecting this to be a
lot of fun, and I hope to share that with you.
I invite you to come back often
as we continue to add to our gallery of Whidbey Island images.
