Seattle Washington - 10/23/2011
I live in a suburb in the outskirts of seattle and i am not the biggest fan. I enjoy the city life being only a 25 min drive away. But the weather is a disappointment. It is always cloudy and rainy. Or just drizzles. Because of the rain, theres not a lot of outdoor activities to do. [read more...] |

Columbia River Gorge Remembered. - 4/26/2011
I grew up in Stevenson, Wa from 1962 to 1986. I graduated from the Stevenson High School in 1981. I remember North Bonneville before the second power plant was built. Stevenson was such a different town before "Wind Surfing" became popular in the late 80's and before the Federal Government proclaimed the Gorged a National Park. I went through Stevenson back in 2008 and the down town area has been all updated and there is even a resort just to the west of town. Which provides a variety of services and activities to the passer-by. Every time I come back on home on vacation and drive up the Columbia River Gorge it still takes my breath away. The Char-Burger is still my favorite place to eat, on the Oregon side of the river in Cascade Locks, OR just at the bottom of the Bridge of the Gods. The view is beautiful and hasn't changed in all these years. Then I love to drive West on Interstate 80, OR side of the river, to the old scenic hwy. and take it into Troutdale. ((GET YOUR CAMERA READY)). The waterfalls along the way are jaw dropping. Once you get to the top at Crown Point the Vista House is one of a kind. The view is amazing, you can see into the Gorge to the East. This little road trip is a must. [read more...] |

Low income housing - 10/19/2010
I feel like I am being discriminated against because I am a married white female that was unable to have children. When I got married my case worker said that was the stupidest thing I could have ever done.
Here is my story!
I am a married white female with less than 50% custody of my step-children, on disability & my husband making minimum wage with 50% of it being garnished for back child support. We do not have good credit or good rental history, but no criminal history. There is absolutely no housing that will accept us as a family. We are homeless and have been homeless for almost a year. In this past year we have lived with 4 different family members, which is very hard on the children not knowing where we are going to be staying the next time they come for visitation which is every other weekend. I refuse to expose my step-children to a homeless shelter (which I am not even for sure that one would take us with our family situation). We lived in our tent for 4 months in a friends backyard, but now that it is getting colder out that is no longer an option.

Puget Sound Transportation - 4/11/2010
North and South Sound public transportation keeps getting better. Inter city and inter county buses run like a subway.
Souder rail now connects Everett to Seattle in the north and Tacoma to Seattle from the south. Park and rides, transit hubs, van pools. Still playing catch up to Portland OR and its fantastic system of light rail servicing the whole metro area.[read more...] |
