You know, this is really getting tiresome… Washington and Seattle keep screwing their citizens, inviting federal intervention

The new state motto, pushed by the governor Fenty Fergie, and his AG Nick Brown, seems to be “Standing up to Trump”, regardless of how futile and costly to taxpayers it is. Our cost of living here just goes up and up, driven by high and rising fuel prices, increasing property taxes (and all other …

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 …

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 …

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 …

This is what we voted for when we voted Donald Trump back into office. As the Assistant Attorney General for Civil Rights, she has done a masterful job sweeping out the many holdovers from the corrupt Biden administration. https://twitter.com/roddmartin/status/1957820810845978734?s=46&t=AkJV8dX_RyhUKPG8uj0KNQ See below for more Some of the holdovers did the “illegal alien” thing, and self-deported when …

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 …
