There's an option for every budget.

The Sourdough Fire is burning nearly 3,000 acres south of the roadway.

The Washington State Department of Transportation says crews are still making repairs and clearing debris.

The east side clearing crew reached the summit of Washington Pass this week and is heading into the home stretch of its work.

It's not surprising I suppose that since I consider myself a bit of a Star Kiddo (i.e., that I'm not really from around these Earthly parts ;-) that I love to go stargazing.

Really small towns fascinate me. And the people who live in these small towns likewise interest me. Especially since I’m a big city beach boy from Torrance, California (a suburb of Los Angeles), with a population of 143,000+, within a population of 3.8 million+, where it’s non-stop city for over 160 miles with 172 IN-N-OUT restaurants. So when I stumble upon a tiny town with a population of 400 like Winthrop, Washington, I need to know the history and why are people living there.
