Details: The Gorge Amphitheatre, located in George, Washington, is a popular venue for outdoor music. It is about a two and a half hour drive east of Seattle.
Owned by The House of Blues, the Gorge is a 20,000 seat concert venue, located above the Columbia River gorge. The view of the river provides a beautiful [...]
It’s been awhile since I read the book The Kite Runner, but I remember how terribly moved I was by it. It captured by interest from the very first page. It tells the story of an Afghan boy, told from his point of view, and the relationships he has with his family and friends.

The musical review, Smokey Joe’s Cafe, returns to the city that gave it a start, with performances at Dimitriou’s Jazz Alley June 12-17th.
Smokey Joe’s got it start in 1990 at Seattle’s now defunct Empty Space Theater, as an intimate cabaret show. After spending time at Empty Space, the revue went on to have great success [...]
I’ll admit it, I LOVE food!
So it’s with great excitement that I share with you the current theme day for the b5media Travel & Culture bloggers. The theme — Food!
Read about a number of delicious choices, one that seems rather, uh. . . questionable, and ponder the politics of food. It’s a great round up [...]
I’m late posting about this week’s Carnival of Cities roundup, hosted by Where. If you head over there, you’ll find some great posts to give you a flavor for some of the great cities around the world.
I’ve been traveling the last few days, and it’s been difficult to read all these great articles. I’m through [...]
The Willard Smith Planetarium is just one more good reason to visit the Pacific Science Center on the Seattle Center Campus. With the goal of inspiring a lifelong interest in the science of astronomy, the culture of astronomy and the experience of the night sky, the Planetarium makes learning about our bigger world out there [...]
Sometimes I really have a craving for a burger. Not a gourmet burger, all dressed up with highbrow condiments and accompaniments. Just a good old greasy cheese burger, an order of fries along side, some tartar sauce to go with the fries, and a rich, thick milk shake. Sure, it may be a heart attack [...]
Seattle speeders — slow down! Cause if you don’t, it’s going to cost you an additional $10 per violation (effective July 1st).
While part of the reason for the increase in the fee for a speeding ticket is to help provide an incentive for law abiding behavior, thereby avoiding high risk driving habits, the additional revenue [...]
Details: The bald eagle is part of the raptop exhibit at Seattle’s Woodland Park Zoo. The zoo makes a great family outing!

I love going to Woodland Park Zoo today, almost as much as I loved going as a kid.
The zoo has changed a lot. No more “keys” that you use to turn on an information recording. No more feeding the bears marshmallows or peanuts. No more small glass cages for BoBo the gorilla.
And while I’ve changed [...]
