On the Go: Veterans Day

It always bugs me when federal holidays are not holidays for all.

Because I’m a state employee, I had the day off, I received no mail because the postal service had the day off, I could park for free downtown because the meter police had the day off, but all the stores were open because a lot of people did not have the day off.

It’s so ingrained in our culture that there are often big sales on holidays.

God forbid we should be on holiday and not be able to shop. That would be downright un-American!

On the Go: Weather

Welcome to Bellingham!

forecast

The Bellingham populace is divided when they see a forecast like this. You either: 1.) embrace the rain and grab your Gor-Tex; 2.) run for your Vitamin D supplements and S.A.D. light therapy device, or; 3.) move to Arizona.
