No matter the season

Dec. 8, 2010. The view from Cedar St. up on Rabbit Hill, no matter the season, reveals McCleary to be a town carved into the forest. We are independent from sprawl, out here in the twilight zone where the Aberdeen and Olympia spheres of influence do not touch. McCleary is a dangerous town to underestimate, as so many of our more urban neighbors have done.
