Dr. Marion Somers likes to quote former first lady Rosalynn Carter when it comes to planning for long-term care:
Elaine Werffeli wanted to give her son Ryan something meaningful when he graduates this spring from University Prep in Seattle. The answer was a website – filled with wisdom for the future.
“I celebrated my 70th birthday this month. My secret? No fear.”
When Gary Stroutsos was in college back in the ‘70s he attended a Jethro Tull concert – and was never the same afterward.
Coming in September, the Woodmark Hotel at Carillon Point will host a clambake on the lake featuring bluegrass music, food tents and wine and beer.
Greg Sheehan of Kirkland speaks affectionately about his Nigerian dwarf goats, Ben and Cooter. “These are my boys, not unlike any two 5-year old brothers. I refer to myself as the ‘old goat’ and Benny and Cooter, the ‘two young goats,’” he says.
Sheehan and his “boys” recently won eight ribbons in the Goatalympics held July 9 at Evergreen State Fairgrounds. When Sheehan first heard about this event, he decided right away that his goats would participate.
Excitement filled the air on July Fourth as kids, parents, grandparents, dogs and even a child with a doll dressed in its USA finest proudly marched in Kirkland’s children’s parade in downtown Kirkland.
