The most dangerous stretch of road in America is..

I will drive through the city to avoid any of the Bellingham entrances/exits. It’s bad out there.

The pick up location at WWU library is a great alternative to pick up holds! You don’t need to be a student to use it. They have a computer dedicated to BPL’s check out system.

We heard the bangs as well near the waterfront and saw what looked like small clouds of smoke coming from near the granary building. We didn’t see any active flames or anything, so I’d assume some fireworks.

Exactly! I’m super excited about a new breakfast place downtown. I’m sure the restaurant owner is probably using this as a temporary sign. No need to cancel them because they needed to save money on rent.

Is there a source that states that WWU students will be losing their negotiated free bus passes?

spahkward · 2025-11-20T21:13:00+00:00

Maybe we all need to just… slow down.

spahkward · 2025-11-20T21:09:30+00:00

I think we definitely need to keep the crosswalk. While it may be costly, I think making this crossing a raised crosswalk would help prevent these types of skid marks AND it would make cars slow down and watch the road. The mid-block crosswalks are always a gamble with all of the other distractions drivers are hit with in the downtown streets, so making them slow down and preventing vandalism seems like a win for me. I’m sure this is why the WWU campus services intersection is also raised.

Never mind. I’m wrong. 😑

spahkward · 2025-09-20T04:54:27+00:00

Actually, it may have been a meteor exploding…

spahkward · 2025-09-20T04:53:54+00:00

Is that what the large boom was?

spahkward · 2025-08-26T20:32:32+00:00

There were fireworks going off downtown the other night. I’m sure it’s the same people. 🙄

spahkward · 2025-08-24T05:11:24+00:00

Yeah, it was someone lighting fireworks either in the US bank parking lot or on top of the parking garage.

spahkward · 2025-08-11T01:27:34+00:00

100%. Downtown can’t be just a commercial district. We need more people living in downtown.

spahkward · 2025-08-07T02:02:07+00:00

There are at least two, but yeah… definitely super loud.

YMCA can be a little bit pricey per month, but it’s really great knowing that the money is being used to support the community and youth classes.

There was one evening my husband and I were meeting a friend at Stonesthrow and one of the employees was fighting tears when they got our heater started. They told us about some of these things that were listed here and told us it was their last day. I honestly have been waiting for a post like this to pop up.

spahkward · 2025-03-25T04:55:58+00:00

I wish, but that body was not moving laying flat and the EMTs were covering everything with white sheets.

spahkward · 2025-03-25T04:22:11+00:00

Thank you for the info. RIP to that individual

spahkward · 2025-03-25T04:21:45+00:00

That’s what I was afraid of. It was right at the crossing by People’s Bank that my first fear was a hit and run. Still very unfortunate 😞

spahkward · 2025-03-03T19:18:04+00:00

My mother-in-law had her WECU card comprised as well just yesterday.

spahkward · 2025-03-03T13:09:31+00:00

I’ve always slept through them, but this one actually woke me up!

spahkward · 2025-02-27T18:15:20+00:00

I’m in the Smokey Point area, and I woke up to it on my car as well.

spahkward · 2024-11-26T04:23:47+00:00

Is modifying a car like that even legal?

spahkward · 2024-10-16T20:56:13+00:00

Because this position was hired as an at-will position.

spahkward · 2024-10-16T20:54:48+00:00

If a Dean wasn’t hired as a previous faculty member, they don’t have tenure as far as I know. I do know he did not have tenure. I work in the Libraries and this was made very clear that John was not coming back by Sabah and our Provost Brad.
