A little something good from Washington State, for a change. Beauty in the Skagit Valley.

Earlier this week, Hubby and I had a little getaway to LaConner, situated on the Swinomish Channel. It’s a long tidal channel northwest of Seattle. On the West side of the Channel is the Swinomish Indian Reservation, and on the West side is the picturesque town of LaConner. We go there often, as it’s only …

More to come…little preview of our mini-getaway to LaConner

We have Ricochet friends who just moved from LosAngeles to Anacortes, and now that they both are up here, we scheduled lunch for yesterday, and included our other friend from Seattle. I decided to extend the lunch a couple of days, since I thought we were in need of a short break from home. Drive …

*We get what we tolerate: Store Closures Due to Theft

Here's a Link to an article on MyNorthwest.com. It shows how the Pacific Northwest's Leftist rulers are literally destroying the local economy by tolerating, and actually encouraging rampant theft and vandalism from its retail stores. Here's a quote from the article. We get what we tolerate. Late afternoon Tuesday, Fred Meyer’s parent company, Kroger, announced …

Did you know that people often make the wrong “climate choices”?

Yes, that is a real question. In fact, it's the headline of an article on the KOMO Web site. The article, specifically referencing dogs, is originally from the Associated Press. I am going to reprint that article here in its entirety, for the pleasure of my readers. Believe me, this will make you laugh out …

For my readers who still get their news from the legacy media. See what you are missing.

I have often spoken of the press climate around the world. How entire big stories are ignored or actively suppressed by the legacy media (ABC, NBC, CBS, NPR, PBS, AP, CNN, Wall Street Journal, New York Times, Washington Post). Entire story lines hit, are only posted on social media and online by "new media", then …

I must be getting old. I keep forgetting to do a post on the Bellevue Arts & Crafts Fair.

So here it is. Normally the last weekend in July, the Fair takes up a large portion of the Bellevue Square parking garage, and sometimes parking lots on surrounding streets. In its heyday, it ran 11 hours a day, with hundreds of booths. It was sponsored by the Bellevue Art Museum, and included an art …

The Decline of Seattle is approaching, at an accelerated pace.

This week was the primary election, and the office of Mayor of Seattle is in play, among other interesting electoral contests. Now, I don't live in Seattle, so I have no stake in who their (far or farther Left) mayor is, and the "voters" rarely fail to voluntarily mess up their city. This election did …
