Plateau generosity a gift to everyone
Dec 09 2008, 1:44 AM Our Corner

The people of the Plateau never cease to amaze me. The giving that goes on in our communities is second to none.

Friday evening, the Enumclaw Regional Healthcare Foundation hosted its annual Holiday Fantasy Dinner and Auction at Emerald Downs in Auburn. As a board member I can assure you we were all concerned about how the economy would affect the auction and the funds raised during the evening of holiday fun.

Legislature has to make life tough on gang members
Dec 09 2008, 1:44 AM The holidays are a time for most people to enjoy family and social events, but for those of us elected or re-elected to the state Legislature our time is consumed with preparing for the session that begins on Jan. 12. Considering the budget outlook, it’s no surprise that most of the comments I’ve heard from folks around town is them being sympathetic about the difficulty of the task facing legislators as they write the new two-year budget.

Krain corner
This photo shows the original Krain tavern and boarding house, circa 1900. This building stood at the intersection of Southeast 400th Street and state Route 169 at the location of the existing Krain restaurant, which replaced it. This earlier building was constructed in the 1890s but torn down in 1907. The rooms upstairs were used as boarding quarters for local miners, farmhands and loggers. The area north of Enumclaw was originally settled by Slovenians who named the area Krain, which meant “at the foot of the hills” in their native language. The original of this photo was provided by Lee Keeney. - Dec 09 2008, 2:08 AM

Mud Mountain Road: Drivers need to slow down, be more cautious | Enumclaw Letters
Dec 09 2008, 11:21 AM It was a fairly pleasant day as we drove toward Highway 410 on Mud Mountain Road. Rounding the corner just before the area where Mount Peak hikers park, I grabbed the dash at the sight of a small white car coming over the hill straight at us! The driver was passing two cars on a curve in the road. “She’s going to hit us head on,” I yelled to my husband who by then was heading toward the ditch to miss the oncoming car. The young woman glared angrily at us as she sped by, barely missing us.
