    Yeah it's weird how far unincorporated king county extends to. Property tax is pretty high, but we have additional levies for our schools, parks, etc out here in MV so I'm okay with that. If I didn't have kids or wasn't planning on having kids I'd move further out. So far I'm pretty happy with this little town. It seems their city council actually listens to their people. Some lady was killed crossing 169 last year and there's been a lot of complaints to lower the speed limit within the city and they actually did something about it. Same with the traffic where petrovitsky/18/169 merge. Finally are widening it and seems like they'll be done with the construction this fall.

    Then again, I've only lived here for a year so we'll see if I feel the same 10 years from now lol.

    My old house was literally less than 400 feet from the lake youngs trail (where the RTA tax ended) and we got the shaft.

    I get the reasoning behind the RTA tax, but it shouldn't extend so fucking far out to people like us who don't commute using i5 or even 405 just because we're in the same county.

    Wow, I should have done the stainless brake lines a long time ago, pedal feel is SO much better now. Also, installing them was much easier than I had convinced myself it would be (the last time I swapped brake lines in a car it turned into a fiasco with a stripped out fitting and me having to fabricate and splice one of the rear brake lines).

    Are floor mats a mod?
    I’m thinking a guy with an AR and a dog sitting on his taco sitting on Dow Constantine’s corpse?
    Too macabre?

    Does anyone know if there is a list of forest service camping areas like government meadows horse camp and lonesome lake that have picnic tables, pit toilets, etc.? I can't find anything on the forest service website. Lonesome lake isn't even listed under fee areas, but it does require a federal pass (NW forest pass or america the beautiful pass)
