spokane




Having arrived in Spokane (spo-can) a few days ago, only a few words come to mind, “cold feet”. My feet have been freezing ever since I got here, the sun has yet to shine, and it’s been raining constantly. Never mind the post industrial Clevelandesque landscape, this place is just depressing. There seems to be a pawnshop on every corner along side some abandoned retail space. Talking to the locals, they seem to think that the recession hasn’t hit them yet, maybe it hasn’t, maybe this city has always been like this, in any case it’s sad, and I for one am glad to be leaving. Sorry Spokane, Wisconsin here I come.
