McGinn: Seattle’s new mayor

Did you think Mike McGinn could pull it off? Tim and I were hopeful but skeptical. Seattle chose grass roots rabble-rouser over corporate executive, Mike Mallahan. He courted the bike constituency from the beginning and even made the missing link in Ballard a campaign issue. We’re hopeful he’ll deliver from the top floor of city hall.

Party for Val Kleitz

News of a party for Val Kleitz has made the rounds on the internet this past week. However, over the weekend we were talking with a friend who knows Val and hadn’t heard anything. We thought it was worth a mention here as well.

Here are the details:

Tuesday, November 17^th, 2009 8 PM at Pike Brewing Company in the Upper Museum Room (1415 1^st Avenue, Seattle (206) 622-6044)

Raffle tickets for a  2010 Redline 925, with proceeds going Val’s medical bills, will be sold at the party.

Have a good week

– Anne and Tim
