It's fall and you know what that means. Crisp air and beautiful colors on our trees. It also means that the Meeker Mansion will be having their annual Cider Squeeze.  Saturday October 13th. from 10am to 4pm rain or shine. (regretfully it looks like rain) You can buy your apples on site and have fun pressing them into cider. There will also be vendors who will be offering their wares. Try someting apple from the snack shack, tour the mansion, enter a apple pie in the apple pie contest. There will be hand clapping music and much more. Bring the kids and have a great afternoon in Downtown Puyallup.     For more information you can visit Explore Puyallup and find out more about events going on in Puyallup.   10/10/2012

Thinking about buying one of the Downtown Puyallup homes for sale? Being part of the Downtown area of Puyallup is a treat.  Having lived in downtown Puyallup for nearly 5 years now, I am going to share firsthand how great it is and try to give you a glimpse of some of the finer points of the Downtown. Truly, you almost have to experience downtown yourself.  Puyallup itself is a rapidly growing city with quite a bit of urban sprawl going on, but the downtown has maintained a lot of its charm and character with a good mix of turn of the century, mid century and more modern construction.  If you are wanting to buy a home for sale in Downtown Puyallup, you should be able to find just the style of home you prefer most.

Leaving south Tacoma this evening, I’m headed back to Interstate 5 and north for home in Renton. I’m anxious, it’s been a busy weekend and I still have things to do to get ready for work on Monday. It should be about a 45 minute drive... “Duh... it’s summertime, what was I thinking?” Every-one’s headed north this Sunday evening, back to the Seattle megalopolis after a weekend escape. I get off the freeway ASAP at the next exit opting for the back way home, River Road into Puyallup, then up the valley on Hwy 167 to Renton. Most likely I won’t save any time but the drive should be easy. The shadows are long just before sunset. I'll enjoy some great views along the way. I’m in the shadows now and notice there's almost zero traffic. The sun is still lighting up Mt. Rainier (at 14,410 feet) ... 07/12/2011

I have a weakness (or two), I admit. One is finding old photos, or looking through my digital pics on Picasa, Flickr, my CD's, or my 1.5 terabyte external drive. Often, when I find a treasure, off I go on down the rabbit hole. What's next? I was looking for that special 'Kodak Moment' and grabbed at least 40 pics I liked and these two photos stayed near the top almost to the very end. I came back to them many times, yet I couldn't formulate why? The universe was trying to tell me something but I wasn't listening. Taken at the Puyallup Fair back in September, I had a great time playing with these guys and we had some great laughs. Their antics were so authentic. "There's that word again, authentic... It keeps coming up lately." I'm building up to something, but later... One rabbit hole a... 12/20/2010
