Before COVID, I used to visit dive bars regularly. I have always appreciated the dive bar aesthetic, and I loathe owners' misdirected attempts to "update" them. I took this photo inside Cap Hansen's Bar, downtown Bellingham, WA, in 2018. In this location since 1953, it has seen some remodels over the years while retaining its original charm. #DiveBar #BellinghamWA #Bellingham
Interior of a dark, narrow bar lit by sunlight coming through the front windows. The service bar runs along the left side, fronted by glass block and fixed, swiveling cafe seats. A long, black vinyl booth and small, red circular tables run the entire length of the right side. The ceiling is covered in pressed metal tiles. A few patrons are having a daytime drink.

I want to support this pilot project adding a bike lane downtown, but it keeps avoiding opportunities to increase cyclist comfort for all ages & abilities.

The latest modification forces a crossover with drivers who want to turn right — while others want to park. (Cyclists are coming from an earlier segment of the street that has parking protected bike lane.)

EDIT TO ADD one possible solution for intersection safety in replies.

Diagram & aerial view of two blocks downtown from city project page. If you’re traveling on this street, from left to right: curb parking, left turn lane, forward drive lane, fancy green paint, right turn lane, more curb parking. At the mid-point of the diagram the green paint is hatched where the person on a cycle who was in the bike lane behind the parked cars is now required to cross over the lane of drivers turning right (or parking). They cyclist then ends up at the stoplight between two lanes of drivers. Text above the diagram: Project Updates October 2024 On Monday 10/7/24 crews will be rechannelizing Holly Street between Commercial and Bay Street. Drivers can expect delays on Monday while crews are repainting the lines.

Here's the images I picked for my two 2025 Calendars. For my Bellingham calendar, I picked a misty morning at Lake Padden. I just love the foggy mornings here. And for my Asia calendar, I picked a photo of this amazing tree on the grounds of Angkor Wat. Just love the ancient feel to this tree that cast such an amazing shadow.

Overheard among a group of local teenagers walking down a sidewalk in Bellingham earlier today: "There's this mean old man who owns the bridge from *Chicago* to Canada and is trying to prevent a new public bridge from opening so he gets to keep all the toll money."

I was very tempted to factcheck some geographic details and contextualize a few claims there but I did not.
