Mascotting FES Part II
Mascotting FES Part II
By Christy Rasmussen Ford • November 13, 2014 12:15 pm

The school district is asking for input on mascotting the intermediate school, or as I like to call it, “Forks Elementary School, Part II”. At first I wondered why the students at FES Part II weren’t just allowed to pick the mascot that they wanted. Then I remembered what happened the last time the kids were allowed to choose their own mascot; 9 months later, we got the Puddle Jumpers.

Some of the frightening cast of The Rain of Terror haunted house.
Inside the Rain of Terror
November 13, 2014 12:05 pm

When my husband Phil and I were asked to be a part of this year’s haunt, Rain of Terror, thrown by the Forks Police Foundation, we were stoked. After checking out the location there was no way we could refuse. We did our initial walk-through in the abandoned and already very eerie Quillayute Airport with Sgt. Mike Rowley. While doing so we were asked to take over the older side of the building, but we ended up with four more rooms on the newer side.

Always read the warning signs.....
Broken Promises
By Christy Rasmussen Ford • November 7, 2014 4:24 pm

A while back I was at the police station. Just to set the record straight, I did not arrive handcuffed in the back of a police car. I was there on my own free will … and no, not turning myself in either.

I trip to the haunted Bakery might be a tasty adventure!
The Legend of Tragedy Graveyard
By Christi Baron • October 31, 2014 7:25 pm

Tales of a trip through the graveyard at night are a Halloween staple. What if there was a lost graveyard? A place where school children played and the identities of those buried there were long forgotten. Such a place may exist on Beaver Hill.

The Right to Bear Tucker
The Right to Bear Tucker
By Christy Rasmussen Ford • October 31, 2014 7:13 pm

Shortly after moving in to our humble abode, my family purchased and installed a high-tech home security system to protect us from the lions and tigers and bears (oh my!). We live in the middle of nowhere (actually 40 minutes outside of Forks) so we need some kind of security system. His name is Tucker and he’s a year-old lab-mixed with goodness knows what else.

Bill White taking a moment to rest.
Chatting Around The Campfire Bill White’s Alaskan Timber...
By Duane Miles • October 24, 2014 4:10 pm

Bill’s challenger was very pleased with how things had gone that fine summer day in 1973 — everything had gone according to plan. He was supremely confident that no one, not even Bill, could top the numbers he had etched inside his hard hat at the end of his six hours of work he had labored this day. After all, he had fell and bucked 13 huge Sitka spruce trees with a total of 113,000 board feet, according to his figures.

Happy Halloween!
More unsolved West End Mysteries
By Christi Baron • October 24, 2014 7:02 pm

Is it the chill on the backs of our necks, or the acceleration of our hearts pounding in our chests that make us watch scary movies or listen intently to stories of the unexplained? Our fundamental human desire to explore the boundaries of fear and anxiety all the while knowing we are safe and secure in a movie theater, in our living room or with friends around a campfire. With Halloween about a week away, the time is right to explore more unexplained mysteries of the West End.

Vote Yes on hunter’s safety course for dogs
Vote Yes on hunter’s safety course for dogs
By Christy Rasmussen Ford • October 24, 2014 6:48 pm

The other night, I read a Facebook thingy about Initiative 594 (gun control measure). It instructed Forks folks to vote no on the initiative because the entire town of Forks is going to be jailed if it passes. According to the Facebook thingy, merely handing your gun to anyone, including your dog, will get you thrown in jail if you do not go through the proper channels of transfershipness.

Shooting Great Falls on the Potomac.
True Color-Part 9
By Chiggers Stokes • October 24, 2014 6:46 pm

I had a great job, but no address. My general orders were to promote public safety and be on hand for cliff or water rescues. I walked all day around Great Falls and on the C & O Towpath.
For a while, I camped out and stayed with friends. The Park Service always is going on about crisp uniforms and I got written up a few times for looking like the homeless bum I was. I needed an address, but I couldn’t reconcile myself to going back to suburbia.

Crime doesn't pay.
Letter to Thievers
By Christy Rasmussen Ford • September 24, 2014 7:09 pm

I wonder if you have perhaps considered just getting a job. By job, I mean where you would work for a legitimate business and receive a legitimate paycheck. This seems like such a Captain Obvious solution, but maybe no one has ever suggested this to you before? Maybe you have never even heard of jobs. It may be hard to believe now, but it is hip to be square. Jobs surprisingly come with a lot of perks.
