FOUND! THANKS!

Biggie ran off last night (11 Aug) in the vicinity of 132nd Street and 58th Drive NE. That's east of 51st on 132nd. 98271 zip code. Unfortunately we don't have any photos of her.

She's a white terrier mix with little brown spots. Her name is Biggie. She's pretty small. She likes people and cats and hates other dogs. She recently survived a horrific tragedy in Renton and was released yesterday from Animal Control, and brought here to Marysville, but last night she slipped out and ran.

We think she's microchipped but the chip may misdirect you to an address in King County.

Let us know if you see her or if you have her. Thanks for reading!

I'm using Reaper 7.78 on Mint Linux, v. 22.2 Cinnamon, on a laptop with a 15.6" diagonal screen, 1920 x 1080 resolution, and the size of the fonts in the menus across the top, and in the resulting dialog boxes, is really, really small.

Now, I am old, and my vision isn't perfect, so maybe this is just fine for most people. But I find myself picking up the laptop to hold the screen closer to my eyes so I can read things.

Am I destined to use this only with a large external monitor? Or is there a way to make these things more readable? Different resolution settings seem to lose screen real estate, so that's probably not desirable.

North end of Marysville, I often hear a sound like an electronic phone ringer, over and over. It could be a backup alarm or other warning sound, but I've been hearing this for about 3 years. A rough guess is that it could be somewhere near State Ave and 128th.

This is in the daytime. I heard it at around 11am today and in the last few minutes.

Any guesses what it is?

This place is technically in Arlington, 11722 67th Ave NE, Arlington, WA 98223.

It's a really nice little family-run nursery, with some beautiful hanging baskets, veggie starts, and bedding plants. We bought Mom some lovely stuff for Mother's Day, and went back this past Saturday for more.

At that visit we were really surprised to find ourselves the only customers in the place on a beautiful Saturday afternoon.

I strongly encourage anyone looking for some beautiful plants or flowers to visit Key's Nursery. I don't work there, nor do I have any other type of affiliation with the company. I just hope to see them thrive, or at least survive.
