I've lived in Seattle a little over two years, but I am still completely blown away when The Mountain is out, towering over the city. (The Mountain = Mount Rainier)
In the morning, driving to work, there's a certain bend I come around on I-5. And in the winter, The Mountain is mostly absent. But not this morning. It was out, looming in all of its glory. Honestly, it's breathtaking. I don't know if it's because it's not always visible or really if it's just the sheer size of The Mountain, but it is an astounding sight. Every time.
Ask me again after I've lived here 10 years. I bet I'll say them same thing.

You are truly from Seattle now that you know what it means when the mountain is "out". Welcome home my friend.
