The weather is fantastic. Clear and sunny, a little bit chilly, but with the Olympic Mountains and Cascade range towering on the horizons and blue water on 3 sides of our little town, who cares how warm it is! Spring is on our doorstep and that means new listings are going to pop up like flowers...for example there was 20 new condo listings just todya in Port Townsend.
