Sedro-Woolley - remembering the beginning

Happy Birthday, Sedro-Woolley! 
Incorporated December 19, 1898!

Sedro-Woolley Historical photos on the Internet!

There is a GREAT collection of vintage photos of Sedro-Woolley now on the Internet! 

Even some from the 1960's, that we, being vintage ourselves, would recognize!

The page with the interactive map and photos is here:

http://www.washingtonruralheritage.org/sedro-woolley/

Click and explore the site - there are 304 photos right now and they are tagged for filtering by subject.

There's an explanation on this blog page:

Many thanks to City Librarian Debra Peterson and Museum Director Carolyn Freeman for making this donor's photos into a wonderful Internet resource.

I'm still looking for a photo of my house from the early days - 1898 or shortly after - but, alas, I haven't seen one here. 

Welcome to the big experiment!

Class of 71 and friends:

We have been talking about having our own web site so this is the grand experiment to see if we can create and maintain it!

I hope everyone will access the site and add comments; we are spread far and wide in the world but I have learned that we love to keep in touch.

I'm living in Sedro-Woolley but guess what - lots of other Class of 71 members are, too! Or at least they're close by.

You may be aware that we are having "monthly" coffee hours on the LAST Tuesday of each month at Common Ground (on the Pease Road) in Burlington, from 5ish to 7ish. They close at 7. It has been fun to get together and visit. Occasionally we change the plan - twice we have met at Gary Rothenbuhler's house in S-W.

Give us a shout and let us know where you are! We're gearing up for that 40-year reunion and we want to make sure that everyone is located and invited.
