Read that part just as the train announced ‘Now entering, Beacon Hill’ and it was a touch scary thinking about what would happen in that situation.
We moved to Portland that year and that article was on our mind a lot. I feel a bit more relaxed now that we moved out of the PNW (for a variety of reasons)
But honestly, I can’t help but think that the article was sponsored behind the scenes by someone who wanted to scare people away. Worked on us!
