haunted-house

Who believes in ghosts, anyway? But then again, there you are: alone, in the dim, waning hours of night, listening to that odd, undefinable rustling, whimpering noise right outside your bedroom window, and—wait a minute! Is that noise coming from inside the house?

IT’S INSIDE THE HOUSE! 

OK, well let’s just say that anyone can have their doubts.

And there are some places that just lend themselves naturally to ghost sightings and big-time scares. The sites of major, high body-count battlegrounds, for example. Or cities festooned with large, ancient cemeteries, or perhaps those with an abandoned mental asylum or two. So who you gonna call to separate the vaguely creepy from the downright haunted?

Just taking a moment to be a proud Dad on today’s blog. Tomorrow morning my son Keenan will be getting up around 3:30 AM and heading with the rest of the Eastside Catholic Varsity Football Team to travel down to San Diego for the 2015 Honor Bowl. While they will be missing a few days of school each one of them are expected and required to keep up on their studies and homework while traveling, along with having daily practices in advance of the game. 

It’s been great to see Keenan mature into such a great young man, maintain good grades, and excel at a sport he loves so much. While keeping an A-B grade point average last year, the freshman team he played on went undefeated while last year’s varsity team won the State 3A Championship (We beat…

It’s summer vacation time for my family and me, so as my wife Janet frets about sun screen, reservations for dinner, and how we’ll keep the kids entertained and still manage some alone time for ourselves my mind of course wonders to the big question of: What do I have the greatest chance of being bitten, eaten or killed by while I’m off enjoying a few days of relaxation?

I mean “Hey” aren’t you afraid of sharks? We went to Hawaii and Myrtle Beach last summer and let me tell you that you should be, what with their insatiable appetite and 15 rows of serrated teeth and the way they lurk in that murky area just offshore where you can't see the bottom and you can't move quickly and, oh God, did something just brush up against my leg?

Whenever there's a…

Wanted man A man robbed a bank in Sammamish Wednesday morning and police were looking for him. The robber hit the Pine Lake Bank of America about 11:30. The bank is located at 3090 Issaquah Pine Lake Rd.   Sammamish always feels like such a safe place. We have lived here for five years now, and the kids hike the trails, we walk as a family, and love the schools and neighborhoods. Hate to hear of things like this going on. Better to be forewarned though....
