Actually we're from just outside of Centralia, so that's not too far. Actually headed to Faiview Heights tonight or tomorrow for shoe shopping! That's one more thing I don't like about our area, we have to drive 45 minutes at least to do anything! I do think our weather is extreme. And, I'm not sure which I like the least, winter or summer! I'm really a fall kind of girl, I don't think I could live somewhere without it! Thanks for your input, it's very helpful to hear from someone who's been in both places!
