They're too busy declaring pickleball the state sport.

“Last week, The Times and ProPublica reported that the state’s failure to regulate this corner of Washington’s special education system had allowed the school to operate for years with little to no curriculum and with staff so poorly trained that they often resorted to restraining and isolating students.”
Great.

We went Saturday. Drive up the weather looked awful but once we got to the park it was perfect.

Great scenery - considering the weather in town was pretty shitty yesterday.

Paradise lives up to its name on a bluebird day after a big dump of snow.

/u/dangerousmusic14 Hey, where'd you go with that sassy mouth of yours? So you figured out you had no idea how traction control works, so you delete you comments and then block me. What a fucking coward.

Our loose laws and half written regulations allow this shit to happen.
Im sure that our legislature will make this a top priority and fix it...

Western Washington: just "warming up" for January guys get it warming up because it's snowing haha
Us: we don't know how to even plan for driving in you if you do this. Please. There's so many hills.
West WA: haha 😆

I drive to Winthrop WA once a month year round. I-90, Blewett pass is the safest. Much more plowing on those 2 and a lot more passing lanes than the death trap highway 2. Just be checking the WashDot website for mountain passes and their webcam reports.

It’s actually a pretty short trail that’s right off highway 2, though it’s a little steep at the start. Most people should be able to hike it pretty easily.
Here’s the WTA page for it: https://www.wta.org/go-hiking/hikes/heybrook-lookout

Beautiful work!!! There’s just something so lovely about gouache. Maybe it’s because I associate it with all the amazing landscapes Bill Waterson did in the Calvin and Hobbes strips I devoured as a kid. But I do think there’s something about the way the opaque color builds up while still laying flat against the paper. You have mastered it.

Stick to i90, interstate gets the highest priority and money for road plowing. Take a car with blizzaks and AWD, drive slowly. Check wadot twitter before you go
You might know how to drive in winter but assume everybody else around you doesn’t. Daily life in western WA does not translate to the extreme winter conditions found in the passes and people crash all the time.
