surgeon,
Snohomish is 35 miles from Seattle along the Skykomish River. It was settled in the late 1800's. Almost all the architecture is historic, and is maintained that way, likely by code.
eagle,
Lake Roesiger is in the Cascade foothills. Half of the western side has been disfigured by a giant obnoxious clearcut, right to the road, with homes and cabins on the lake side. All but one of the trees we cut were tall evergreens in close proximity to three homes, many had significant trunk rot, all were subject to failure--one had already gone down, jus tmissing two homes. In addition, the recent clearcut exposed them more. There are still at least 30 trees on the appx 1/2 acre lot.
