Seattle’s a heck of a place : To remain LexBlog’s base

Last summer I announced that LexBlog was relocating from Seattle to Bozeman, Montana. We opened an office in Bozeman staffed by a number of great people with the intent for my family and I to move over there by now. For a number of reasons, both business and family wise, we’ve decided to keep LexBlog’s headquarters in Seattle and closed the Bozeman office.

For those of you not real familiar with Seattle, it’s an incredible place filled with a sense of entrepreneurism unmatched by other cities around this great country of ours. People are upbeat about the future, the city’s economy is booming and outdoor activities are all around you.

A recent cover story in Northwest Magazine in Sunday’s Seattle Times summed it up well.

It is this abiding sense of the adventure, continually refreshed by glimpses of Puget Sound through the downtown high-rises, or of Mount Rainier immense behind our residential hills, that sets us apart from other cities. Witness the arrival of new Seattleites imbued with the same start-over pioneer energy. As they settle in, dress codes fall away, social climbing turns to mountain climbing. The city is seemingly endowed with unlimited possibility. Yet Seattle is still thought of by those who live here, and those who might, as a simpler, quieter, woodsier and, above all, a more beautiful place to live and work.

In addition to this city driving Microsoft, Amazon, Starbucks, and Boeing’s 787 Dreamliner, we’ve got hundreds, if not thousands, of start up tech companies. And these tech companies are making money this time around.

Not to mention we have bloggers upon bloggers, whether tech, corporate, marketing or personal based.

So if you’re ever out our way, look me up. I’d be proud to show you a piece of Seattle.
