Yesterday (Oct. 19), a lawnmower was left abandoned on the sidewalk outside my house in East Valley. What started as a curiosity turned into comedy gold as many of my friends and family members chimed in with their ideas as to how the mystery mower wound up there.

Can never have enough Thai food and, happy to announce, Moxee will be home to a new Thai restaurant that features several curry dishes, noodle options, Thai teas and coffee and even mango sticky rice.

One thing I love about my corner of the universe out in East Valley is the picturesque sunsets we get an our stunning view of Mt. Rainier.

A wildfire on Konnowac Pass claimed over 1,000 acres and between 75 to 100 firefighters were on the scene. A number of homes near by had to be evacuated. Living a little too close for comfort, I whipped out my phone and tried to capture it on video.

Could a legit water park FINALLY be coming to the Yakima Valley? According to one report, a surf park with man-made waves, could be coming at a location north of Moxee.

The entire sky is lit up for the 4th of July, and I think most want to keep it that way. The Moxee Police Department wanted to remind you of a few rules when it comes to lighting off fireworks in Moxee. If this rule is broken too many times by too many different people, there's a good chance that this year may be the last...

With COVID-19 restrictions and the Yakama Nation announcing today that it will not allow sales of fireworks on the reservation in 2020, along with other towns canceling their shows, you might be wondering if it is still a go in Moxee this year.

Gusty winds in the Yakima Valley yesterday (May 20) wreaked some havoc near my house. What came next was a CHRISTMAS TREE?!?! in the middle of MAY?!?!

Another in the long and ever-growing list of coronavirus cancellations, the latest casualty is the annual Moxee Hop Festival in East Valley. According to a post on the Moxee Hop Festival Beer Garden Facebook page the 2020 event is not going to happen this summer.

The East Valley School District sent out a message today to families of students attending school in the district to submit photos or videos of the pupils saying "thank you" to the teaching staff.

Incoming students to East Valley High (grades 9-12) will get one extra day of summer vacation before heading back to class to begin the 2019-2020 school year.

A new $40,000 sculpture was unveiled in Moxee City Park as part of opening night festivities at the community's annual Hop Festival
