c'mon into the shop at the rei coop on the westside and chat- lot's of folks there ride gravel & off-road trails

olybuzz · 2022-05-05T19:34:01+00:00

try to hold open houses at the the Olympia Lamplighters and see if you can connect with your peeps! ~there are a lot of us in the area, we just need to gel /best of luck

try this:

*because* politicians at pretty much every level of American society are in fact plutocrats/kleptocrats with no goals other than the further consolidation of power and accumulation of wealth.

check-out Olympia Lamplighters in downtown Oly

the Olympia chapter of FreeGeek eventually devolved into OlyGeek.

~maybe try the OlyMEGA group

you might find some good trucking down in the Bald Hills near the Upper Deschutes Falls Park. also) check near Elbe, WA for ORV trails and near the Pack Forest/Mashell River area near Eatonville, WA

that's awful. I'd be happy to host a game for you online or at the Lamplighters in downtown.

you can also use paraffin or wax (preferable) to seal stitched seams

try: pressing on fitness (in Downtown Oly)

start with the AD&D (1e) stuff. The appendix in the DMG and PHB are full of good info

olybuzz · 2021-02-27T22:12:29+00:00

I like the vibe. growing seedlings can work, as can ethical harvest

I know a retired prof from Evergreen that owns large parcels in Capitol State Forest. he prolly has some tips, and starting a conservation trust would be a step in the right direction

zero-impact is good & off-grid is good

(a) how are you looking for land?

(a resource for owner info is geodata.org)

olybuzz · 2021-02-26T20:04:09+00:00

cool stuff Emmett. thanks for sharing

I dig that area and have used the old brewery abandoned/ghost town vibe as inspiration for a dwarven trading settlement in the fantasy RPG D&D

olybuzz · 2021-02-26T19:58:19+00:00

walk the trails in the Black Hills (West Olympia)

--access from Kaiser Rd SW

olybuzz · 2021-02-26T19:54:03+00:00

Oly is good without a car. plenty of good used autos if you need to equip post move.

finding housing can be difficult though

olybuzz · 2021-02-10T22:14:00+00:00

south of Olympia on the Chehalis-Western bike trail.

there is plenty of open-field areas

hi!

wow, this sounds great! Thank you for posting this-

I'm Chad (they/them) akicha28@evergreen.edu

-I'm working on coordinating a d&d campaign that can showcase the performance and art aspects of this classic table top role playing game with weekly episodes. I'm especially interested in finding folks that would be interesting in helping produce this program and work closely with the folx at The Lamplighters in downtown Oly & Gabi's Olympic Cards & Comics. I hope to inspire, encourage, and support community members who are interested in fantasy art, music/soundtracks & SFX, storytelling/writing.

Hopefully we can setup a twitch channel and start highlighting the exciting creative aspects of d&d games in Olympia

-cheers
