According to
Capitol Hill Seattle Blog, a van flattened a section of Capitol Cider s streetside seating on Wednesday night. Apparently an angel with nothing to do happened to be around because no one was injured. Capitol Cider, which is on E Pike Street, has some of the best streetside structures in town.
The first person to win Washington s vaccine lottery claimed the $250,000 prize with as much secrecy as possible. You know: more money, more problems.
The high price wood is fetching these days is making the risk of stealing it acceptable. Christine Clarridge of the

Such a separation will put the tax burden that you really are onto the back of the Potatoe State.
So, as expected, anything like normal will not begin to happen until fall. One could see that from the distance of June 2020. And so it is not a surprise to learn that the very popular Capitol Hill Block Party has been cancelled for a second time. I even love the way Capitol Hill Seattle Blog dropped the news: Short, sweet, and to the point, producers of the Capitol Hill Block Party have announced to fans that the annual three-day music festival ha
