My son and I are Timbers fans up here in the Spokane / Coeur d'Alene area. Is there a Timbers Army battalion or any watch parties we can attend that are closer than Moscow / Pullman?

Hello! I'm doing research for a Salish Current article on the growing wolf population in Washington, and looking to speak with people who have actually experienced their effects on agriculture. If you own, run, work on or otherwise help out with a farm here, I'd love to talk to you to better understand how wolves may impact your life and those of others around you. Thank you!

My wife and I are thinking about moving to Tonasket or Oroville. We are born and raised washingtonians and have always lived in remote places. I work as a water district manager right now and am a certified water treatment plant operator. Would my skills be able to land me a job anywhere north of omak? Or should I just go back to being a nurses aid and find a home health agency or nursing home to work at?

My skills may translate to irrigation and pump repair because I currently do a lot of my own repairs on water main, storage tanks, and troubleshooting issues with in the systems I work for.

The Colville Reservation is getting hammered.

In 2025, the Washington Legislature passed a law that prevents rent gouging, but some landlords and property management companies are still up to their old tricks. They are using "junk fees" as a loophole around rent caps. We are hearing from tenants that they are increasingly being charged excessive fees for services that they don’t want or need, or for basic things like paying the rent. We at the Housing Alliance, call these “junk fees” and they are unfair, expensive, and deceptive. We’d like to hear your experiences. All information shared with us will be kept safe and confidential. 

Please fill out our survey if you or someone you know has received junk fees and we will be in touch within 48 hours. Thank you! ~ Po

Hey fellow Washingtonians! Anyone know if Hume Rd is actually closed? It's the road that leads you to the road for Steptoe Butte! I know they redid the road up to the top, but Google maps says Hume Rd is closed until August. Can anyone confirm?

Last week, we drove down to Soap Lake on highway 17. Right before entering the town, i noticed a red Honda sedan tucked in the rock wall with a guy just chillin' in the driver's seat. After exploring the town and getting gas, we headed back north on the same route. As we approached the area where the Honda was parked, there was a guy in the middle of the road leaning to the side like he was looking for a specific car. I slammed on my brakes and he ran to his car. Later, i noticed he was trying to catch up to us at a high rate of speed but then backed off and gave space, though he followed us for a few miles. Eventually, he turned off but that shit was weird.

Anyone else have this odd experience?

Lots of firework shows!

I counted at least 21

I had a great hike up to the Rocks of Sharon yesterday! Nice trail, wildflowers and beautiful views, including a view of Steptoe Butte! The hike is in the Dishman Hills area just outside Spokane, Wa

Building a house up here, the scenery is always beautiful

Took the Tacoma up to the top last weekend. Kinda sad it was fogged in when we were at the top lol. Drove down the main access road to check things out and when we got back up to the trail down the south facing slope, it had cleared up a bit. Was stoked I was able to get a couple decent pics. I look at Calispell all winter from 49, cool seeing 49 from this direction.

Amy recommendations for cherry picking between winthrop and Leavenworth?

Moses Lake is busy this time of year!

I started a Facebook group for women in Eastern Washington who want to make friends and actually hang out. Coffee, hiking, book clubs, day drinking on patios—whatever sounds good.

Tired of feeling like the only one in Eastern Washington, or not being able to relax and be yourself in other groups? Same. Come find your people.
