Holiday 2006
Say, here's an idea: Why not give a present that has to be experienced? Seattle is nothing if not an active town, and its residents love to go out and enjoy its natural and man-made attractions. They love spa days, live theater and interacting with nature. Why not give holiday gifts that enable your fellow Seattleites to do what they do best?

On the first day of Christmas, my true love gave to me a Holga from OKOK Gallery. The Holga, a cheap plastic camera that shoots medium-format film, is not a precision instrument; you could shoot the same photo with a hundred different Holgas and not get any two shots that resemble one another.

Holiday 2006
It’s that time of year when skies turn grey, fingers turn crafty and thoughts turn toward holiday shopping. Seattle is home to scores of designers, artists and crafters, and this is never more evident than during the holidays, as craft shows large and small pop up all over town.

Imagine a bucolic island, in a storybook setting with snow-capped mountains looming in the distance. Imagine that it's close to a leading West Coast city, but has a timeless aura. Imagine you can get to it quickly and cheaply, via a short, scenic ferry ride.
Is it Bainbridge Island? Whidbey Island?
Both apply, but guess again. This is also a description of British Columbia's Bowen Island, a sylvan spot in Howe Sound just north of Vancouver.
