Amateur and professional photographers are encouraged to submit a photo of their favorite local or national park.

Home prices in the Seattle area have gone up significantly over the past year during the coronavirus pandemic.
Low inventory and high buyer demand has lead to competition over the few homes on the market, driving the already expensive home prices in the area even higher.
Home prices in the Seattle area have been rising for years. According to a new study from PropertyShark, Seattle homes that were sold in 2009 were resold in 2019 at a more than 50% higher median price. Seattle ranked ninth among cities with the highest home price gains over the course of the decade, according to the study.

Last New Year s Eve-December 31, 2020-was a sad day in San Francisco, marking the permanent closure of the historic Cliff House. As the sign s individual letters were removed and lowered to the ground one-by-one, a crowd gathered to witness the momentous occasion. Sad as that scene was, though, prior generations of San Franciscans have witnessed similar events at the very same location many times before.
From its first incarnation in 1863 (not 1858 as some assert-that date refers to a restaurant of another name in a different location), the Cliff House has attracted San Franciscans seeking food, drink, and entertainment. In spite of many news reports, however, there has NOT been 158 years of continuous fine dining at the westernmost point of San Francisco s continental shore.
