    LOL the caption of the photo called that the eastern outskirts of Seattle. You have to drive a full 45 minutes+ from Seattle to get to where this happened.

      I think it’s a reasonable description to people who have only heard of Seattle.

        It reminds me of someone who told me they were from San Francisco. In fact, they were from Richmond which is only loosely part of the San Francisco Bay Area.

        I’d have preferred some mention like “this occurred approximately 75 miles east of Seattle” or whatever the correct distance is.
