That's terrifying. God I hate driving in this state. Sharing the road with a clueless 16 year old glued to their cell phone ended up with me getting rear-ended while I was at a dead stop and she was doing over 60mph. Now I'm looking at needing surgery on my neck. Ugh.

Does your cars lights not automatically go off when you lock your car? That sucks if it doesn't. My car is older and not fancy at all but locking it turn my lights off which I really appreciate because I always have them on so I know I would forget to turn them off constantly.

Yeah, I was going to say, I just spent 50 bucks on a LED bulb that I had only had for a little over a year before it went out. Luckily my car is older and I was able to replace the bulb myself both times so I saved on labor.

That doesn’t look disappointing at all! Personally I’d feel a little short changed if I went to a place called Cape Disappointment and didn’t leave feeling a little bit underwhelmed.

Yep, I too am in the same camp of lights on always. I still can't believe how many idiots I see on my commute without lights on when it's dark, raining and foggy. It stresses me out so much because my commute involves a lot of newly constructed roundabouts (highway 9) and sometimes it's basically impossible to see a dark car with no lights in that type of weather and I always panic thinking I'm going to some day not see one until it's too late. I take those roundabouts so incredibly slow though and triple check I'm clear so hopefully it'll never happen but it still is frustrating that it could be so much safer if other drivers just had their damn lights on!

Big feelings over here. I’m just trying to help give more information on these bills.

I loved visiting this place. Felt like standing on the edge of lingering danger.

UW alum, I hate to say it…but WSU is a better Washington State school for most fields than Western. Also the Coug alumni network is crazy good and supportive of their new grads.

If it needs work it does lower the value… most cars you buy need tires at the very least. If you live in washington fight for every penny when it comes to being taxed ! We have fees and taxes on everything and washington is probably the sneakiest state in the union in regards to fees and taxes.
The state makes a fortune off of taxing cars …its criminal taxing used vehicles when they already taxed the sale of it when new. The state makes more off vehicles than car dealers!

OP said he's been to Snohomish already, but that definitely would be my first suggestion as well. I grew up there and now have returned 17 years later and while it's definitely become more upscale there are tons of great shops and good restaurants (you're definitely right about the The Rep being the best!).
Port Townsend is also a great suggestion. I'll throw in Anacortes too, they have a little shopping district close to the water that has some antique shops.
