A Visit to Amboy, WA - 11/22/09 11:12 PM
A visit to Amboy, WA and the North Clark Historical Museum What a great find for my family! On a rainy Saturday, we were driving the North Clark County Historical Tour, and stopped in at the North Clark Historical Museum. We were treated to wonderful stories and history of the museum on a personalized tour.

The story of the museum is a great story on it's own. I was impressed by the 'greenness' of the renovation. One of the interesting 'green' updates was the museum's decision to use geo-thermal heating. It allows the museum to very efficiently heat the big … (4 comments)

Winning Wine - 11/22/09 11:55 AM
Winning Wine, right here in Washington!
I've been deliberately buying local for several months (even giving up my favorite beer) now, and it's been satisfying.  Recently, I read of the recognized success of Washington Wines with the wine-judging crowd.
Perhaps the wine industry will be one way of preserving our beautiful local agricultural lands from short-sighted industrial and residential development.

Great Western Malting - 11/10/09 03:52 PM
Great Western Malting, with a history in Vancouver, WA (and apparently Woodland, Wa). This picture was taken at the Cedar Creek Grist Mill.  I guess the burlap sack is from days long ago - do they still use burlap?

Family Outing in Woodland - 11/10/09 03:28 PM
We had a family outing in Woodland recently. We took our first ever visit to the Old Grist Mill at Cedar Creek. This being November, we had rather typical cool, wet weather for the trip. No worries. We were well rewarded!

There is a great story behind the grist mill.  We toured on our own and made up the rest of the story.  It was rather crowded there with so many visitors. I was pleased so many people were there in spite of the rain.  There are great exhibits of how the mill works, and pictures of the restoration process.

Market Snapshot - 11/10/09 12:33 AM
Monday Market Snapshot 2009/11/09 The market may be showing the first signs of change. What I've learned in the past is that the market changes swiftly once the change begins.
For the Clark County area, the number of homes on the market was 3491 last week and it's 3528 this week. That's the first increase since June. For the greater Vancouver area, the number of homes on the market was 2553 last week and 2554 this week (yeah, weird, huh?). The number of pending homes was 857 last week and it's 834 this week. This means the ratio of homes available … (3 comments)

Urban Food Production and You - 11/04/09 09:55 PM
Urban Food Production and You Okay, Warning! This post is for those people who believe in sustainability and who understand it's more than being 'green'. If you don't see the connection between the cow in the field and the lump of meat encased in cellophane and styrofoam when you go to Safeway, you might be needing to read this too.
Food is important to life, and it's important to have food growing in sustainable methods and locations. There is a growing number of people who see the benefit (perhaps necessity) of growing food locally AND organically. And there were dozens of … (2 comments)

Steakburger! - 11/04/09 09:19 PM
Steakburger Big Secret for 40 years? I didn't know. I've seen the sign for years now as I drive up or down I-5 or Highway 99. It's an old retro-looking sign and occasionally I wondered if the food was any good and whether encroaching 'progress' would be it's demise.
Today I stopped in and fell in love!
This is a business that's been in one place and family-owned and family-run for over 40 years. From the moment I entered the front door, I was hooked. While I was waiting for my lunch date to arrive, I read the history of Steakburger … (10 comments)
