This fall has been one of the nicest, most beautiful that I can remember. Looking out my window now it is hard to let go of. Capture that same warm, fuzzy feeling by sharing your harvest while helping those with a slim harvest or no harvest.
The harvest is done, but not the Harvest Dance. This is a benefit for the Issaquah Food Bank. This will be a fun night with Live music by the Astro Cats & Magnolia Road AND you could be one of the neighbors helping neighbors. Tickets are available at The Issaquah Press, $10 in advance, $15 at the door….425-894-4410……LIVE AUCTION!
There is sample food from Issaquah Restaurants! YUM! Wine, Beer and Soda. DANCING!
It will be at the Pickering Barn Nov 21 (Friday) 6:30 - 11:00pm.

…….but this Saturday, July 12th, at Issaquah Farmers Market (Pickering Barn) there will be an electric car display and information booths will be in the Hay Barn 9 am-3pm.
Can’t we all use some alternate transportation ideas these days?
Of course all the usual fun of the market will be in full swing. I love the flowers, the veggies, the food. Music by Alan Cal 11 am. in the Market Courtyard.

Yes, the world is standing still for Issaquah Highlands Highlands Day. What a blast for many of our grandchildren.
I guarantee to you there are few communities that get into it like Issaquah Highlands. People love it here.
However, many want to move up, down, or into all parts of Issaquah. So tomorrow go do the open house thingy.
The open house map has 12 for your Issaquah house hunting pleasure. Click here then click the balloons to see more detail.

OK, let’s have some help here: I will start it off.
1- Convenient location to a ton of great places: Seattle, Snoqualmie Pass, etc.
2- We have a very pro active parks department: The proof is n the pudding.
3- A highly involved population: If it is important, people get involved.
4- The character of Issaquah is kept intact. Take a visit with that in mind.
5- Recreation abounds here.
6- Shopping.
7- The arts are a big part of Issaquah
8- See Amy Gregersen’s comment:

Free Fishing Weekend is not just Issaquah but covers the whole state. It means that June 7th & 8th no license is required to fish on any waters open to fishing. Size and numbers of fish are still subject to the rules. Go to the following for details http://wdfw.wa.gov/fish/regs/fishregs.htm. They probably won’t look like this!
Tastin’ n Racin’ is a annual event at Lake Sammamish State Park. You will hear the sound of the “big mosquitos” as in hydroplanes. Water action, fun and food even for landlubbers. There will be a display of vintage hydros as well as competative hydro racing.There is a beer garden and ten different bands and a motorcycle pledge ride to benefit the Max Foundation, a cancer charity. There are events for all age groups. Bring the kids.

Le Chic Pet in Issaquah Highlands recently had a Saturday where pets who need homes were available for adoption through www.homewardpet.org. With the foreclosure crisis many more pets are abandoned or have to be given away. Homeward Pet was founded in 1990 and is a “no kill” shelter. They need homes for homeless pets and there are even foster opportuniuties available. Le Chic Pet is planning on having pets from Homeward Pet as a regular feature. Le Chic Pet is at 2525B NE Park Dr, Issaquah, WA 98029 (Issaquah Highlands). Click Here for the Le Chic Pet blog.
This dog, Beau, has a wonderful home, friends and family. I think he must like BBQ!
This dog does not. She is an adorable, sweet dog and really deserves a home. Her name is Ce Ce. She is shown with Linda Middlebrooks of Homeward Pet.
This is Cody the cat, he needs a home too.
Cindy Schippers of Homeward Pet plays with Gracie. Homeward Pet is at 18800 Woodinville-Snohomish Road, Woodinville, WA 98072 - 425-488-4444.
