Some of it is the usual long vines which I can bag up and keep under the house until they are good and dead but some is woodt branches as big around as my forearm.

Community Member Raises Concerns About Mayor's Public Criticism of Councilmember

During the July 22 Sedro-Woolley City Council meeting, a member of the public raised concerns about appointed Mayor JoEllen Kesti's public criticism of Councilmember Paul Cocke. The criticism came after Cocke spoke during a Skagit County Commissioners meeting regarding the Northern State Recreation Area ballfields proposal.

The comments were made in response to Kesti’s July 8 remarks, in which she said it was "disappointing and inappropriate" for a councilmember to publicly work against the council's adopted position before another agency.

The community member referenced Washington law regarding the roles and authority of mayors and councilmembers, stating that councilmembers are independent elected officials who have the ability to express their own views, even when those views differ from the council majority.

City officials were encouraged to review applicable state laws and codes when carrying out their roles and responsibilities.

Community participation is an important part of a healthy local government. Residents who take the time to research, attend meetings, and share their concerns help keep public discussions open and transparent.

Motorcycle crash on I-5 North near Chuckanut Drive exit 8/8/26

A motorcycle passed us in the right lane on I-5 North in Washington state near the Chuckanut Drive exit at around 4:00 pm yesterday, 8/8/26, going probably at least 100 MPH. Within probably less than 2 minutes we came up stopped and stopping traffic. The motorcycle was lying wrecked in the far left lane and the motorcyclist was lying face-down in the far right lane, showing a bare back covered with blood. There were already a couple of people around him; one seemed to be checking his neck for a pulse and another appeared to be making a call. We can’t find anything about this crash on Google, Claude, WADOT or anywhere else. Does anyone know anything more about the crash and/or the condition of the motorcyclist?

I think my house is haunted, I just moved here.

I live in a house that was built in 1910 and I'm already open to spirits and stuff like that as it is, and I have been since I was a kid. Yesterday I sent a voice message to my boyfriend and I paused before I told him I loved him and I recorded a man's voice saying "Yeah so uhm" and the basements energy is off and also I heard walking above me, I'm not sure if it's an attic or what...my mom's bf keeps insisting its not haunted but he is ignorant obviously because this place was built in 1910 so of course it is, have any of you experienced anything out here in Mt Vernon?
