The Snohomish County Public Works Environmental Cleanup and Litter Wranglers teams were on Green Mountain this week picking up nearly four tons of garbage, scrap metal and other debris collected by the Shop Night Gamblers and Gambler 500 groups during their 2nd Annual Green Mountain Spring Cleanup on May 30th. The county thanks these awesome community-minded groups and the U.S. Forest Service for their commitment to keeping our public lands looking beautiful.
🏘️ A safer community doesn't happen by accident. It happens because people decide to build one.
That's exactly what this community did. Through a CAL FIRE-funded fuel break project, landowners in Spanish Flat in north El Dorado County worked to clear, mulch, and create defensible space on a large scale. When wildfire came, firefighters had a safe corridor to work from, and homes were successfully defended.
This is what preparation looks like. This is what working with your community makes possible.

Not many starting P’s left that will EVER get in to HOF. Thanks to the analytics and data “coaches” we will see a hard decrease in players getting in the HOF.
Maybe they should make a new HOF. The Analytic/Data of Fame. Sounds awful
BREAKING: Two people were killed in a rollover crash on the SR 18 onramp from I-5 in Federal Way overnight.
State troopers say the car passed them at 131 mph, when they began a pursuit..
America should really distance themselves from beef. I know its hard because hamburgers and steak are so good. But pork and chicken are so much healthier and safer to eat.
UPDATE: Dawa Sherpa has been transferred to Kathmandu for further medical treatment after his miraculous survival on Mt Everest.
The 52-year-old Sherpa climber, who was found alive near Crampon Point after days alone high on the mountain, is suffering from severe frostbite and exhaustion. Details to follow!
I landed in D.C. tonight on @AmericanAir. At baggage claim, I received a notification that my luggage wasn’t on the plane—it’s on the next flight landing at 1 AM.
WTF?!?!
I went to baggage services, and they said it can’t be delivered tonight because it’s too late. When can it be delivered tomorrow? 12 PM, I’m told.
I have a meeting tomorrow morning, so what am I supposed to do?
I basically have two options:
1. Wear the same underwear and clothes to my meeting.
2. Wait around the airport for an extra 1.5 hours at midnight when I’m exhausted and have to be up early.
Sorry, but this makes zero sense. How do you just not put my suitcase on the plane? I checked in 1.5 hours before my flight—ample time.
The woman at @AmericanAir baggage services was extremely dismissive.
This is so freaking crazy. I don’t understand how they could fail to load my suitcase and offer no sensible, timely resolution.
My Apple AirTag also shows my suitcase is still at my original location. The baggage lady assured me it shows on their end that it’s on the later flight and that Apple tags sometimes aren’t updated. I guess we’ll find out in 45 minutes…
No one will read it because it’s not written by John Krakauer.
Besides, Everest expedition books are overplayed. You’ve read one, you’ve read them all.
Here is a photo of Dawa Sherpa who was found alive this morning, 04.06.2026 NPT, near Crampon Point on Everest while crawling toward base camp. Frostbitten, exhausted, and severely weakened, he miracolously survived alone for days after disappearing above Camp III.
@ChrisDaniels_TV@komonews I was able to chat with Doug a few years ago at a charity event. I told him I wish he would run for a political office here. He replied that he will consider it once his children were older, but right now they are his focus
Spurs players REFUSE to put their hands over their hearts for the national anthem!
They are making millions of dollars to play a child’s game and still feel oppressed somehow…
Only 2 players covered their hearts. Take note of which ones!
@LETSSEATALK I was pissed at the way he left. But the intervening years dulled the sting and he’s definitely paid the price for how he left.
Water under the bridge.
