Maybe if you really need a place where you can take your 2 year old to ride around on a safe ride. But if you're over 7, and definitely if you're 10-18, you'll find this park stu-pid. There are no lines. There are no people. The ridekeepers are bored, and the rides outdated and little-kid like. If you must "amuse" yourself, enchanted village isn't too far, and is slightly less stu-pid.

No matter where you live, from BC to Wyoming, this is the best zoo around. Of all the ones I've visited, only the Bronx comes close, but Woodland Park still beats it. The new butterfly house isn't open enough, but being outdoors, I understand why. The different "houses" aren't as run-down as the Bronx Zoo, and the grounds are much more well-kept than Point Defiance in Tacoma. Well worth half a day's visit.

Since I only deal with the tellers, anyway, I keep my account here. But to get any help with your account, call the 800 number, never go in! The desk help is not trained to help you, just the opposite, they're trained to UPSELL you. They won't even tell you if they can't help you until you submit to what-product-can-we-sell you grilling first. They've signed me up for Visa cards that I specifically refused--they must get a great commission there. They ignore my questions and help temselves first constantly.

Most folks who don't know thrift stores think of Value Village, and that's too bad. Prices are more often than not 50 to 200% of brand new prices. Their beat-up "antiques" sell for not-beat-up antique store prices. If you are looking for Halloween Costumes, this is where you'll find some of what Display and Costume sells, for the same exact price. Why not just shop the sales of the new stores and save some money?

Prices are great at the As-is thrift store on Broadway. They run two colors on sale, two not on sale. They don't seem to be able to keep it together with the one clerk- some disappear in back, while you wait at the front counter, some just sit at the front counter and let the shopping carts of new product sit unsorted. There is no happy medium here--They need two people on at once.The cashiers are good at knowing the sales,usually.

Although they have moved from Home-Store liquidation (my favorite) they now have good deals on Food liquidations. They unfortunately have also moved to cheap dollar-store items in a lot of cases (for $1.50 to $1.99), so be careful. I think they sit on product too long without a sale. Their checkers sometimes goof, so watch the items as they're punched in. Go upstairs for furniture and cabinets and such...If I were a contractor or decorator I might see the value in these, but I don't.

4 color tags on a rotating month. New items not included in that sale. They take a lot of space with new furniture that thrift-store shoppers are unlikely to see the value of or afford. We're used to $20 couches, not $2000 couches discounted to $1000. They separate out the 75% color-tagged clothes. Many other thrift stores sit on so-called "high quality" items forever because they have an extra color that doesn't rotate. You can get decent stuff at a decent price here because they don't.

This thrift store belongs in Edmonds Downtown, not on Evergreen Way. It has a clean, boutique-like atmosphere, so will appeal to little-old-lady types. You won't save money shopping here, but it will go to a good cause. They have plenty of little-old-lady help, all of whom seem to have never seen a "thrift store". Prices are high and no sales of note. If you want to donate something expensive to charity, these folks will ask the most for it.

I think this National Park is half a national park, with the other half in Alaska. The exhibits are as interesting, or more so, than most small historical museums. some areas and exhibits don't look inviting to the general public, and I assume that they are explained on a Field Trip by a Ranger or Docent then. the Interactive comuter kiosks seem a waste of technology, for it's just a multiple-choice quiz. Exhibits on the great fire, too.

Rooms of modern paintings and renaissance paintings, no admission fee to get in, and the security guards aren't overzealous like MOMA or SAM. They have a rotating display of a modern painter in the front "lobbys" and their permanent work in the middle, with a room in the back for a guest traveling exhibit. Specializes in paintings, not sculptures, although they do get a few guest sculptures. Give yourself a hour and you'll do fine.
