Howdy Y'all, I posted a couple of weeks ago about the Grit City Gauntlet, and it is coming up this Saturday (September 19th) at 9am, beginning at the Washington State History. For those who did not see that previous post, The Grit City Gauntlet will be a 22-mile walk with around 1200ft of elevation gain. The goal of the event is to build community , encourage folks to walk , and to appreciate the wonderful city of Tacoma . All are welcome to this free event and folks are encouraged to join for as much or as little as they would like . The route will have us begin in Downtown Tacoma, go up through the North End to Point Defiance, back along Ruston Way and pass by the Stadium District and then finishing at 7 Seas Taproom around 6 pm. You can check out the route here . Folks can also join midway through the gauntlet at one of the stops listed here . We have almost 200 folks signed up so far with room for plenty more. So if you want to do some walking, make some new friends, or just explore Tacoma come and join the Grit City Gauntlet. You can sign up with this form to stay updated. Join our Heylo group to stay up to date and feel free to check out our Instagram as well. As mentioned this is totally free and feel free to bring a friend! Join for 1 mile or all 22 and we hope to see you there! Also happy to answer any questions.

This week it will take place this Monday, at 7:30 PM at The Pine Box, 1600 Melrose Ave. We will most likely be seated under the covered patio - if you see a group of Smash Bro gamers out there, then that means we're up in the Mezzanine! If you're ever uncertain of where we're at, you can ask the bartenders and they should be able to point us out. Please note that The Pine Box is 21+ only. Start time is typically more like 7:00, as people tend to show up then to order food, chat, and just socialize. Don't worry if you don't see any games as they'll be brought out soon enough. Start time for board games will be at 7:30, so if you don't want to be left out be sure to show up before then! If you're new, look for the collection of board games people usually bring. We ask that you please order something, even if it's just one beverage. The Pine Box is a public bar, and we need to respect their business needs. FAQ: Q.) How often does this group meetup? A.) Unless stated otherwise, this is a weekly meetup. Meaning every Monday we try to gather up and socialize. If we are skipping a week for holiday or some other reason, it will be noted in this post. Q.) What kind of games are played? Should I bring mine? A.) A whole slew of games are played; from short games like Codenames and Liars Dice, to longer ones like Evolution and Colonizing Mars. And feel free to bring your own games, too. You might find some people who are interested in trying it out. Q.) I don't really know how to play any board games besides x, y, z.... Will I be welcome here? A.) That's completely fine. There are plenty of people who are willing to explain the rules and do quite a good job at it, too. Q.) Speaking of being welcome, what kind of people are allowed to attend? A.) Everyone is welcome, so long as you are polite, respectful, and considerate of the other patrons.

Attempting to move to Seattle if job stuff works out and just found out there is no chillis. Yes I heard abt airport one but it’s more expensive. So was wondering what are some other good restaurants that have fire mozzarella sticks and ranch for a good price.

Hello Seattle! I am currently planning a trip with my husband for next October (2027) and I’ve been watching youtube videos of neighborhoods, places, parks, etc to visit. How’s the weather around that time of the year? Also, I really want to take a ferry ride and spend a day at a beach? Would love to hear your recommendations on those things and everything else too! It was my turn to pick a place to visit so I really wanted to see what the PNW is like. We’ve never been and i’m really excited! We’re coming in from Austin so if there’s any spots that are similar to here i would love to know too.

Edit: **ADDED INFORMATION/UPDATE*** Name: Corey Sweeney DOB: 12/08/1990 (35y/o) Height: 5’11 Weight: 170lbs Eyes: brown Hair: black/dark brown Wearing: burgundy hat with a black bass logo for nv and the backpack photoed below. Last seen: white buffalo saloon on evergreen around 12p on 09.12.26 I writes this post with a heavy update and a sense of urgency for community help. Corey has been pinged at a few spots near forest park, and has been spotted by others in that area, as well as, around pigeon creek/forgotten trail near providence (provided screenshot I received below of the area he may have been seen). Corey’s location is no longer active. There is now no way for me to even try to find him, leaving myself and his mother totally reliant on YOU, the community to help bring him home. PD has been as helpful as they can and I’ve been driving the area as I can. I have his mom with me now to help with me with searching, I need anyone who sees him to post a time and location if you see him. Try to snap a picture if you can! I will drive to him! Please contact PD and let them know as well so they can try to make contact. He’s a great man, who deserves help. He has a wife and a cat who love him. Family and friends who love him. ***END ADDED INFORMATION/UPDATE***

Yesterday I asked what West Seattle’s big-dog owners actually wanted, and you gave me a lot to think about. The same things kept coming up: someone confident with large, powerful dogs, real exercise instead of a quick loop around the block, consistent care, and a boarding option that doesn’t feel like a kennel or a giant pack. I heard you. I’ve decided to move forward with Driftwood’s Retreat , and I’m ready to start with a small number of dogs here in West Seattle. The focus is exactly what you asked for: specialized walking, confident handling, real exercise, private adventures, drop-ins, and boarding. If you were one of the people who commented or messaged yesterday and asked me to keep you posted, this is me keeping my word. Thank you for helping me shape it.

Hey folks, I've got a move coming up in about a month. I'm not going far, not even 3 miles across town, but I've got some furniture and heavy stuff that I wouldn't be able to move myself and I want to hire movers. I figure I might as well support local businesses while I'm at it, so does anyone have suggestions for moving services in Lakewood?

Hi Bellevue — Theatre33 here. We thought we’d introduce ourselves to anyone who may not know there’s an independent nonprofit theatre tucked away in the BelRed Arts District. This October we’re producing Jeffrey Hatcher’s A Picasso , a two-person play set in Nazi-occupied Paris. Pablo Picasso is summoned to authenticate three paintings attributed to him. What sounds like a simple task becomes a tense encounter between Picasso and a German cultural attaché, with questions about art, power, truth, and survival at the center of it. It’s an intimate play — two actors, one room, one increasingly complicated conversation — and we thought it might appeal to Bellevue folks interested in theatre, art, history, or simply discovering something local they haven’t tried before. A Picasso runs October 16–25 at Theatre33 in Bellevue. We’re happy to answer any questions about the play or Theatre33 here. And if you’ve been to Theatre33 before, we’d love to hear from you.

Who's grinding metal at 3:0A, in Interbay?? Anyone else here that?? All. Night. Long.
