    The Centennial Trail exists from just north of 'downtown' Snohomish to the southern outskirts of Arlington. Biking from Seattle to the end of the trail in Arlington and back makes for a nice century ride (with a stop in Snohomish for pie!).

    As a member of WSECU, I've used Group Health (now Salal) CU ATM's fee-free for a number of years (as part of the Co-op network). In any event, Salal currently advertises themselves as part of the Co-op network.

    9 months later, I finally tried things out, and the extremely lightweight inflatable air mattress works best for me. So have a mushroom.

    Hmmm. On further review, not all garlic is sensitive to day length. Still, the seasons would be all wrong if you planted it in the spring, plus it's so easy to grow over the winter (when most vegetables won't grow at all), so why try to grow it now and take away precious garden space away from tomatoes? You can grow all the garlic you need if you just plant a couple dozen cloves in the fall --- I haven't bought garlic from the store in years.

    No. Garlic is an overwintering vegetable. It uses the rains of fall/winter to make its leaves, grows the leaves big in the early months of the year, then sucks up the energy from the leaves to form the heads in late spring and early summer. I'm pretty sure it does all this based on day length, so if you plant it now, it will just get confused, try to form a head immediately, and fail.

    Alternatively, if it does it based on age, your garlic will want water in the summer, sun in the fall, and dry weather in the winter. Not a recipe for success. Wait for the fall.

    Perhaps it can tell based on light angles. Perhaps I exaggerate for effect. The point is, every place that I've read about potted ficus, along with my experience, says you should avoid moving them.

    By the way, the Yesler sawmill burned down numerous times, and was rebuilt larger each time, but always on Mill St (Yesler) west of 1st.

    Also, Yesler had satellite sawmills, including one in the town of 'Yesler' (somewhere near the intersection of NE 45th and Union Bay Pl), at the end of 'Yesler Creek' (which started roughly at NE 80th and 35th NE, then headed down 39th NE to where the UW Center for Urban Horticulture is now).

    Acts of the Apostles says Judas did not hang himself, but died from an accidental fall onto some rocks.

    My undergrad Religious Studies professor would say the 'fell on some rocks' story is more likely true than the 'hanged himself' story, since the latter seems more like something that would fit the theology of the author (Matthew), whereas falling on rocks sounds just a random accident.

    Peter: Oh yeah, that store. I've only seen it from the freeway, but it looks like the kind of place that's wallpapered with stuffed deer heads.

    Also a good idea, but I really need to try one out before dropping that much money.
