have never been much of a believer in ghosts, haunted buildings or the paranormal. I have to tell you, this past Halloween season may have made a convert out of me.
Take a close look at my two photos. Do you see what I see?
Lions distribute dictionaries to Custer 3rd graders

Westside Story – Tillicum Goes to Pot
Now I see the pro-pot people are invading Tillicum. Why would pro-pot people spend time at a Tillicum community meeting? There is only one reason I can think of. Pro-pot people want to bring pot to Tillicum.
Westside Story – City of Lakewood Honors Joe Boyle
I need to be honest. For years I have thought the City of Lakewood would honor me, during my lifetime, for my crowning achievements and pioneering spirit which were instrumental in helping establish the City of Lakewood. I am much like the City of Puyallup’s Ezra Meeker. I figure in 100 years, school kids will be read about me in their history books.
Westside Story – Tooth Fairy
The first photo in my story is a familiar image of a small kid after proudly losing a baby tooth. When you are near a child who has lost a tooth, it is easy to sense the excitement of it all.

Westside Story – Trick or Treat
Hey everybody, I have included two fun photos of scenes I found in our community. I share them with you as a reminder that Saturday, October 31, 2015, is Halloween. Kids will be roaming all over our community looking for Halloween treats. I know you know that. You also know to be extra careful when driving so as to not run over a trick or treater. Hitting a child with a car will ruin our days for a long time to come, regardless of who’s fault the collision might be.
Westside Story – Starbucks Name Change
I loved Starbucks for over 25 years, traveling to what was known as the 3rd Place twice a day anywhere I might be located all over the world. Howard Schultz successfully imported an idea from Europe and perfected his dream he called the 3rd Place.
Letter: Today’s news need not be tomorrow’s
A local chapter of a national health organization wanted to know what benefit it would receive for sponsoring our community seven-and-eight-year-old baseball team, all from the first and second grades of Tillicum Elementary School.
I was thinking about my answer as I read recent headlines.
