Meg sent a link to these photos taken last Friday on 1st Ave NE of a 2 am car flip: Sounds like nobody was seriously hurt (except, perhaps the car involved and a nearby Mini Cooper).

Continuing Stories from the Community Week, Shane McSimov introduces himself: Just a mid-west guy that transplanted to a small neighborhood in Seattle, Wallingford. It has been an amazing 9 months here in Seattle moving from Illinois and I have to say I couldn't be more pleased that I end up here in Wallingford.

This Story from the Community comes from John Scott Tynes, a frequent source of Wallyhood news and early encouragement, in which he brings us along on a splendid Wallingford date night: My wife and I have a seventeen-month-old daughter and live in Wallingford. We have no handy grandparents in the area and so breaks from our baby are few and far between. Couch dates tend to be the rule. At the same time, we're frequently out walking in the hood to…

Don't you just hate those eye-catching headlines that, while technically accurate, are misleading? A struggling little blog will sink to anything for click-throughs, it seems. OK, we admit it, Ivar's waitresses aren't going topless, but they are serving a new "adult" offering: spiked sno-cones. Jim writes: We wanted to forward you information about Ivar’s Salmon House’s new offering – something we tested out last week during the major heat wave – sno-cones! They’re served in a rock glass – due to…
This Story from the Community comes from Matt Kowalczyk, an old friend and upper Wallingford resident who founded a charity, Climb for Kids, in memory of his daughter, Emma, whom he lost to TTTS.
