If you watched the Vancouver Olympics, you may remember seeing a montage someone put together showing amazing scenes from Vancouver and the surrounding countryside.  Mountaintop vistas, sparkling water, happy people, all in one image after another.  I’ve been to Vancouver before and I enjoyed my visit, but I don’t usually feel a burning drive to see it again.  Well, after watching that clip during the opening ceremonies, I was all geared up to throw the hubs and the offspring in the car and hightail it north!

This video put together by the Tri-Cities Visitor and Convention Bureau evokes similar feelings in me about my own backyard.  I forget, driving around our community as I do, that it really is a pretty area.  I mean, we have three rivers that come together here. That alone makes for some spectacular scenery, but combine our gently rolling hills covered in grape vines and steep bluff faces with the waterways, and we find we really do live in a gorgeous area.

Check it out for yourself and let me know what you think in the comments…

My husband and I came to the Tri-Cities in 1994, and we thought it would be a temporary stop on our way to larger cities. He was a television sports anchor at the time, and we planned to go wherever the "next step up" took us. Twenty-plus years later, we're still here and we've loved every minute of it! We have two children now, and we've found the Tri-Cities area is a wonderful place to raise a family. It's a great place to do outdoorsy things -- I like to hike Badger Mountain or run along the river path. I also love reading ... by a cozy fire in the winter or a beautiful picture window in the summer (with the A/C on!). I've been a licensed Realtor since 2004. I earned my managing broker's license in 2016, which means I can run my own brokerage, or create a team of real estate agents and supervise them, which is exactly what I did when I formed the Cari McGee Real Estate Team in 2018! We have administrative and marketing personnel, as well as additional agents to serve you. I became a director of the Tri-Cities Association of Realtors Board of Directors in 2016, became Secretary/Treasurer of the organization, and was elected to Vice President in 2019.

    Hi Cari:
    Great post and video! Having lived in some ugly places, (Saginaw, MI, Hobbs, NM) and beautiful places, (Savannah, GA, Wappingers Falls, NY) the Tri-Cities is an interesting change and beautiful in a way that’s totally different from “out east”.
