I'm afraid I've lost the gene that allows PNWers to enjoy that kind of weather, but we certainly used to. (Maybe it's just the 'right clothing' that I've lost actually.) And the Pacific Coast cannot be beaten by anything anywhere for wild beauty and for the feeling of being in a private magical spot.
