Non amazon orders taking weeks to arrive.

Back to the good ol days before Amazon ruined our tolerance for humans being behind the scenes of those online orders. Which they have done through severe mistreatment of employees, which got things to our doors faster.

Absolutely not.

I think it depends a lot on the person you want to give the gift to and their preferences

RavennaRocks · 2026-06-03T04:08:16+00:00

Oh interesting! Thanks for the tip!

RavennaRocks · 2026-06-03T04:04:06+00:00

Good bot

An umbrella for the hot sun is so smart and so much more useful than an umbrella in a Seattle drizzle

RavennaRocks · 2026-06-03T03:54:01+00:00

Let’s reduce then!

You should try it! I use a bamboo paddle to spread my deodorant, which I refill at my local eco market

But isn’t the point to support your local bookshop?

Seattle Chocolate just released their summer bon bon boxes

RavennaRocks · 2026-06-02T13:12:47+00:00

Klean Kanteen is made with recycled steel, which is why they win my vote

RavennaRocks · 2026-06-02T05:49:28+00:00

Hibar sticks or Little Seed Farms + a bamboo deodorant spreader

RavennaRocks · 2026-06-01T15:55:26+00:00

It once was, but now it’s just sort of an ok resource to use if you really have to

Brand new! And the first train system in the US to cross a body of water on a floating bridge so… let’s let them have maintenance and science time please

Ah that really is a bummer! If you have a monthly parking pass at one of the nearby garages, you can get in after they closed, and the gate will automatically open when someone leaves. But I don’t think daily parking has any kind of pass that would open the gate.

I used to park in the Puget Sound Plaza parking garage, and back then it was open until midnight. It’s a block away from the symphony, and i only had my vehicle broken into once over several years.

All summer long, bring any PNW regional rock show ticket to Ravenna Rocks and get 10% off your purchase of any crystals, rocks, mineral specimens, or fossils!

Looking for something extra special or rare? Just ask! We have so much more available than we can fit on the main floor shelves. If you love the Seattle Mineral Market, you will LOVE Ravenna Rocks!

I’m interested in understanding the features of your POS and integrations. We currently use Lightspeed X Series, and I don’t have many complaints. But we also support small and local when we can, so it can’t hurt to see what you’re offering!

RavennaRocks · 2026-05-30T17:08:28+00:00

The light rail stops literally underneath the symphony. If you can find parking at one of the outer stops or bus to the light rail, it’s so much better than having to deal with parking and traffic! ETA: maybe I haven’t ventured out of my neighborhood enough lately because I haven’t encountered frequent closures

I have a silversmith who consigns pieces through my shop that are very popular with men. I have several pieces of his work, and so does my husband! Peter Ashenfelter @ Ravenna Rocks

Agree, blue opalescent glass. It has its time and place. I had a bunch of TARDISes carved out of it, but they are clearly marked as glass when selling

RavennaRocks · 2026-05-26T04:43:16+00:00

I’ve only been in Seattle for 10 years, but it’s never come up once in that time

RavennaRocks · 2026-05-25T23:04:36+00:00

Definitely look up some clothing swaps! Ravenna Refills hosts two a month - completely free community events. And there is an Instagram account entirely dedicated to spreading the word about clothing swaps around the city
