Hey pinback, here's one more thing you ought to do before you move away from the sound: Go to ocean shores for July 4th and park on the beach for the fireworks.
It's the wildest fireworks experience I've ever had without a doubt. You spend the day driving up and down the beach (I've never driven on a beach before, cool). In the evening, thousands of people park their cars and trucks in surprisingly neat rows and start setting off fireworks towards dusk. From about 9pm until midnight, the beach is a solid wall of smoke and explosions. I'm not talking roman candles and fountains here, these people spent money on near professional shit and were setting them off within 10 feet of each other, it was crazy. We spent an hour and a half on the beach near the waterline surrounded by explosions everywhere. Then we drove the one block back to the hotel and watched another hour and half of fireworks from our balcony.
Well worth doing at least once, but you'll probably move before next July 4th though.
