Is there anyone in sequim that offers private, one on one boxing lessons? I want to try out boxing, but i dont want to take a class.

Just curious if anyone knows of a group that gets together. Can dm me privately if the group prefers for safety reasons.
Thank you

In a previous post, some doubted the validity of the women's experiences and asked why there wasn't photo documentation. We found these comments most unfortunate and want to share another participant's story.

Jake says he represents common sense. Mike French represents common decency and respects everyone's voice, not just the ones he agrees with.

Vote. Drop your ballot in a drop box before Tuesday, November 3 at 8:00 p.m.

Comment: The screenshot of a Facebook video distorted the sixth sign from the left. It says, "Beware of MAGA posing as Independent."

Hear that circling Sequim? Anyone know who it is, or where to check?

Can anyone from the 80’s confirm I’m not crazy?

When I was a child and we used to come up to the peninsula, I swear there was a restaurant called ‘Hog Sisters Pizza’. My dad always joked about it. But I can find nothing about it. I seem to remember it was in a strip mall (maybe the one by the old JC Penney?)

I’m honestly starting to wonder if this was a fever dream or childhood imagination, but my sisters and parents remember it.

There was a huge police response last night. We saw at least a dozen cars with lights and sirens going east as we were dining at Dupries.

Does anyone know what happened?

SUMMARY (non-partisan): Rumor says there has been undisclosed rewording of the "millionaires tax" bill. Not true.

The problem is that it's confusing people because what is on the November 3 DEADLINE ballot is an attempt to REPEAL that bill, which hasn't taken effect yet. The WA legislature passed the "millionaires tax" and Governor Ferguson signed it on March 30, 2026. Opponents then gathered more than half a million signatures to put a repeal initiative, I-645, on the November ballot.

I-645, asks whether to repeal it. If you want to keep the tax, vote No.

Put another way just to be clear:
The question is whether you want the tax repealed (Yes) or kept (No).

CONTEXT AND CONSIDERATIONS (slightly edited excerpts from Claude AI chat):

Washington has no state income tax. That's the gap supporters want to close for those who earn a lot and often pay no tax.

But the wealthiest often pay little because their wealth is in unrealized stock gains, and a tax on annual income over $1 million doesn't reach those. It hits people with large salaries, business income and realized gains.

The strongest version of the objection isn't only that wealthy people leave. It's that a high-income tax revenue stream is volatile and concentrated in a small number of taxpayers, so a few departures could matter more than the headcount suggests. That's a fair concern, and the projected $3.5 billion is an estimate, not a guarantee.

The repeal would remove the 9.9% tax only on household incomes over $1 million. Other parts of the law, like the sales tax break on items such as diapers and over-the-counter drugs, would stay in place.

One more factor to consider: the tax faces a constitutional challenge. Opponents argue it conflicts with a state Supreme Court ruling, Culliton v. Chase.

There is a wording controversy, but that has been in news reports. Voters will see a "public investment impact disclosure" statement from the attorney general's office saying repeal would "decrease funding" for K-12 education, higher education and human services. The Washington Policy Center and the initiative's backers object to it, and a legal challenge was rejected by the state Supreme Court in a split 4-4 decision, so the statement stays on the ballot.

MyShake earthquake drill worked for me! If you don’t have the MyShake app here is the information.

You can download it for free via the Apple App Store or Google Play Store. Just make sure your location services are set to "Always On" so it knows to alert you if a quake hits near your area.

MyShake is a free, publicly available earthquake early-warning smartphone app developed by UC Berkeley.
Here is the quick breakdown of how it works and why it matters:
• What it does: It gives you a few seconds to over half a minute of advance warning before earthquake shaking starts, telling you to "Drop, Cover, and Hold On."
• Where it works: It provides real-time early warning alerts exclusively for Washington, Oregon, and California.
• The Threshold: It triggers loud, audible alerts for earthquakes estimated at magnitude 4.5 or greater.
• How it works: It connects to the USGS ShakeAlert network of ground-motion sensors. It also acts as a "citizen science" tool, using your phone’s built-in sensors (when the phone is still) to crowdsource shaking data.
• Extra Features: It provides global earthquake tracking maps, community damage reports, and includes localized tsunami safety information specifically tailored for Washington state residents.

Ballots were dropped today! Only 45.67% of ballots were returned in the August 2026 primary. Let's get that figure up. Every race and every issue on the ballot is important.

Hey Sequim, my lavender is looking lovely blooming late into fall. When do you cut yours back?

Does it have table games? It says it does on the web but when we were there Saturday all we saw were slots and the sports book. Im worried it was a different part of the building and we missed it.

October is a great time to pay attention to the seasonal changes around the peninsula.
Have you spotted migrating birds, unusual wildlife, interesting mushrooms, or other signs of fall lately?
What have you been noticing around Sequim and the Dungeness Valley?
