Comment on The Light I Can't Follow by Jorgipie
Thank you for the suggestions, and the warning. The shooting area would definitely ruin a trip for us (PTSD reasons), so we would want to avoid that. I'll look into Anacortes. I haven't been there before but it sounds like a pleasant place to visit. Having hiked all over the Umpqua, which is in our backyard, I always enjoy a new place to explore. 
I seriously just want rain. Snow down here makes people crazy. It's like a 1/4 of an inch comes down and the world is ending! LOL.
I look forward to that!

Oh no that would not be a fun trip then 
But Anacortes is very nice and safe! It's always rainy or foggy there in the fall and winter and since it is at such a low elevation it very rarely will snow. You could hike around all day out there, lots of nice areas. You could take the fairy to the other islands to explore as well, or go whale watching, also lots of great food and family owned businesses! It is a very outdoorsy kind of place 
if you take a trip in the spring you could stop by and see the Mt. Vernon Tulip Festival as well. They have miles and miles of them and it's really cool to look at. Just be prepared for traffic since it is only a 2 lane road D: And omg it is like that here when it snows too hahaha. I am guilty of this xD but I rarely drive anyways.

And all of the other activities would be fantastic to experience. It's a wonder it hasn't popped up on my radar before. I'm so glad you told me about it. I was browsing through the Airbnb homes available and there are some really great places to stay too!
Lol! Yeah, I tend to just stay home when it snows here. No sense in risking my sanity for the crazy drivers around here.
