Pinehurst Land Use Notice

I don’t know any details other than what you see below but it looks like a nice mixed use project. It’s good to see mixed use as opposed to all the apartments and condos along 15th with nothing on the ground floor.

[EDIT:] It was pointed out that because the zoning is NC-40 and it’s […]

Police Picnic Coming Up July 9th

The Seattle Police Department North Precinct’s annual picnic is approaching.

Put it on your calendar!

It’s fun; I went last year and had a good time.

There was free food, music and dance on stage, tours of the precinct station, community tables, and I got to meet the bomb squad and their robots, swat team, […]

Pinehurst Pets – Shakti Paw Love Monkey

A few years ago I made a commitment to adopt only senior pets, especially ones who had been abandoned or orphaned when their owners went to a nursing home or died. I only get 3 or 4 years with them, but they’re great years.

One of my current elders is a 10 pound, 15 […]

Pinehurst Pets – Charlie

Here’s a photo of my rescue dog, Charlie, after I taught him how to read in a class called “SmartyDog” offered by Great Dog Daycare (http://gogreatdog.com/).

I’m a librarian, so I think reading is very important. Of course, it turns out that his FAVORITE book is about kittens!!!

Charlie is a smartydog, […]

Donations for Pinehurstfest!

Pinehurstfest wouldn’t happen without all the wonderful volunteers (more about helping out here) but it also doesn’t happen without at least a bit of money.

There are two options for helping out this year, mostly because I personally can never find my checkbook and do everything online. It got my wondering if other people were […]
