Some nice scapes on that page of yours, Tim. I can definitely see the Puget Sound area influence in them. I've often thought about relocating to that area, myself. Maybe in a year or two. It would definitely be a contrast to the relatively flat and featureless sights of Central Oklahoma (Oklahoma City). I used to live in Southern California, for a couple of years, back in the early 70s, so I know something of what the West Coast has to offer in terms of scenic beauty. One of my favorite areas Northern California, around Carmel, Monterey, and Big Sur.
