Hello, Feather. In complicated modern relationships, my mother's 2nd husband (post-divorce) lived very near Sisters for a couple of years, he's since moved back to his birth in Whidbey Island. I'm waving from closer to Seattle.
Sometimes we don't really know things are a possibility until we are exposed to them -- or in the case of Sisters, hit over the head repeatedly
However you got here, we are glad to have you!
