Jet, I'm not usually a nudger but I like your concept.
Clues, pick your favorite one: she lives in a state beginning with "W" and she can see Mt. Rainier and the Puget Sound from her house, the town she lives in begins with an "O" and a song referring to "...the gem of the ocean" mentions the name of the town, and there is an old battleship parked in Philadelphia harbour that has notoriety for being Admiral Dewey's flagship when he was flexing his muscles during the Spanish-American War in Manila harbour.

Don't feel so bad. A couple minutes ago I was reading my own face and it's not a happy story.
After walking down our driveway to pick up the newspapers this morning, I turned around and suddenly slipped on a couple inches of ice, and ended up hitting the ice, face first no less, plus my left knee! So now I'm reading the bloody bruises over my left eye and upper nose hoping I don't get a blackish eye. My knee is also quite swollen and bruised. What went through my dumb head as I was getting up was that I'm grateful for having a thick skull and a well attached meninges so I can take a heavy hit to the head without flinching much, harkening back to the days of boxing when a hit to my head just got me pissed off enough to fight back harder. I'm going out later to chop up and remove the ice.
