Hello and welcome from Northern CA. Is Lyman a very small country town? We almost bought an old two story farmhouse with a creek running through the property. Have never forgotten it and wish we there instead of San Jose.

I have never heard from another person who knew where Sedro Woolley was. My grandmother and uncle and cousins lived in Sedro (we called it cedar willy) and Burlington, Mt. Vernon, Cement and on and on. Grandma worked at Northern State and Uncle Rock was first a police office and then a custodian at the high school and always took the seniors on their Disneyland trip. Can you tell I am excited you joined the board? Grandma lived off of Eden Rd. next to a dairy farm.

We have lived in Skagit County for 40 years, up near Alger. It is a beautiful place to live.
