How are the other 4 getting to Forks? Are they locals?

None of them can give you a ride?

  1. Land at Seatac
  2. Take the Light rail to the Pioneer Street Station ($3.00)
  3. Walk .5 mils to the Seattle Bremerton Ferry terminal
  4. Take the Ferry to Bremerton $9.45
  5. Have one of the friends that will be driving to Forks pick you up from there,
  6. It is 10 minutes off of SR 3 which is a likely way that they will be heading to get to Forks.
  7. 2.75 hour drive to Forks

OR

From step 5 take the a bus to Forks, would need more info and times to get pricing this way. nasty amount of time.

OR

Rent a car, might be wasteful if you were vacation to a city with transportation options, But you are going out in the wilderness and renting a car to do that is an entirely reasonable and in this case sane situation.

Ford Focus, From KAYAK for ~$175 for 5 days

If you want to be in the Seattle Mero Area look on the South end.

Look for jobs in the Kent Valley in south king county.

Look for housing in the same area, or in north pierce county.

>entry level jobs...(paid relocation, relocation packages, etc)

That's a... big ask, unless you have specific qualifications for a specific field there is more than enough people locally to not pay relocation for entry level position ins nearly all fields I'd imagine.

For WA most of the time you can just cross this line out of the text and then re-read it to not get your head tongue tied.

Personally I don't think the bolded word should be there either as it reads as if it is costing the state this amount. A more accurate phrase would be "Generating $14 million in tax revenue..."
