I write less on www.ericrush.com than I did here, so I'll start paying attention to this again. Working on a new book: It's Too Bad I'll Never Build Another House Because Next Time I'd Know What I Was Doing

That's Sequim, pronounced Skwim

We can always tell when the person on the phone is not from here. "...and you live in, uh, SEE-quim Washington?" It's Skwim, folks. One syllable. Rhymes with 'swim'.

Sequim is an English approximation of an Indian word that means, "Land of old people who drive very slowly and use turn signals to indicate what they just did with the steering wheel."
