Reply #21: Yes, North Kitsap County,

[Mrs. Overall]

actually in the Kingston area. It is absolutely beautiful here, but so conservative. I have met a few liberal, open-minded people, but on the whole, most are very fundamentalist Christian. There are also a lot of military people--Bremerton Naval Shipyard, Keyport, Bangor Sub. Base, Whidbey Island Naval Air Station. And yes, there are tons and tons of churches! I have even seen several confederate flags on the back of pick-up trucks lately.
Thank goodness, though, for parts of Bainbridge Island and Port Townsend, both of which have very nice progressive, artist communities!
Nice to meet someone who knows Kitsap!!
