I use both systems daily so I wouldn’t mind

Benefits aren't worth having to convert everytime you deal with the rest of the country

What would the cost to replace all the signs be, and what would be accomplished by doing this?
Would you do it all at once, or in increments, such as changing speed limit signs first? Or the temperature?
Would there be a way to retrofit older cars with KPH more prominently displayed?

Sure. I was taught it in elementary school and it always made more sense. I still have the conversion factors memorized.
But I won't hold my breath on the timeline. Elementary school was 50 years ago and nothing has happened yet.

I was wondering what the holes were from, wasn't sure if they had them in when printed. Impressed with how well the electrical tape held up

You don't need to expect something like this but it can get bad.
Good to have goggles on hand, extra tie-downs for tents.

I love Seattle. I can’t afford to live there but I really enjoy it. It’s a beautiful city.

No matter what you steak a pop up canopy with when I’ve camped at Maryhill state park our canopy stayed in place but poles were bent and ruined from the wind. If not sitting in camp chairs fold them up and place inside tent or vehicle. I’ve been and everything is susceptible to blowing away. I love the Gorge and it’s so beautiful but because of the wind I probably won’t camp there again.
I didn’t get cold the air feels nice usually when temps are warm, depending on seasons. But for me the chaos of the wind feels chaotic and difficult to relax and enjoy calmness because it isn’t ever calm. It’s almost like constant chatter going on in the background. And then there’s the chasing after anything you forgot to weigh down.
I have camped at Lincoln rock state park and it was calm during the day but when the evening rolled around the voracious crazy winds came and taught us a lesson or two about wind and camp set up.

Sure, but why not just put both? (Unless that is how switching happens).

Ha I saw a chunk of manufactured home blow off a truck in the gorge just yesterday! Story checks out.

It is windy. 35 mph gusts aren’t in the least bit notable. The chairs and table will probably be fine, the canopy might not be- certainly plan to sand bag it and know you could end up with a ripped top. Hazards of the gorge.

Almost looks like dog teeth marks on the tag in your other photo, might have been using it for training thier dog to shed hunt.

I know Seafood city in tukwila has a hot food bar that opens pretty early. Also there's a very delicious market called Fou Lee in Beacon hill that serves food pretty early morning. Can't say much about 99 ranch.

Those things deteriorate and fade the moment you breathe on them. They've used the same ink/paper for at least the last 10 years.
Probably super recent and got tossed with the antler after cleaning/transportation.

The one in Renton has a big hot food counter that sells stuff, but can't say breakfast for sure.

I found this wrapped around an antler on the beach today. I can't figure out how to post more than one pic though. Just curious about how long it has been in the water.

Petroglyphs, hiking, and mostly it’s just an area of the state I have not explored before.
