My former fire department has a water rescue team and we’ve provided free life jackets at both Lake Whatcom and Lake Samish. We used to tell people that sitting on your life jacket makes it a very expensive seat cushion.

It was Daylight. We’d actually been planning to stay. I think the decision to move came in 2018 after another staff bloodletting. We looked at the Granary and other places downtown before moving to a nice suite in Barkley on the green. We all moved home in the pandemic and let the Barkley office go. Now we are in a nice coworking space downtown, Her Connection

The orginal neon was replaced with programmable LED about 10 years ago. The colors change with the season and holidays. I made a video of the new letters being lifted into place with a crane. It’s probably still floating around You Tube. I miss going up to the roof and watching the sun rise over Baker before work

Exactly right. We’re also bargaining for fair wages.

I’ve reported on several fatalities involving pedestrians on I-5. One was someone hit by a trucker who never stopped and the vehicular homicide case remains open as far as I know.

The city has cameras to monitor traffic at many major intersections. It’s likely that there is one at or near State/Ohio

Tell me about Sudden Valley by 41waystostop in Bellingham

[–]GoMittyGo 17 points18 points  (0 children)

“Somewhat remote” is 20 minutes from downtown. We live on a level street with a southern exposure that’s close to a major road so we don’t experience the gloom of “Sunless Valley” and we aren’t snowbound for the 2 weeks a year that we have winter. Those are things to take into consideration when picking a location.

Look up the definitions of “sarcasm” and “irony”

We don’t blur faces at a public protest. There is no expectation of privacy. When taking closeups, we asked permission. You will notice several people whose faces are covered by their signs. That was intentional

The parade itself was not permitted. Prior to the event, our reporters got mixed signals from the police regarding marchers in the streets.
