According to the website https://www.woodincreekvillage.com/wine-dine, there are twelve such places. There's even a stretch marked as Wine Alley on both ends. The neighborhood appears to be roughly 4 square blocks, only a block away from the downtown Woodinville area (very near Molbak's). To identify the location, look for an adorable trio of bunnies which marks the center of Woodin Creek Village. Parking is plentiful. Both street parking and indoor retail parking at the apartment buildings are available. I came here to eat at Lifted Taco. I'll definitely tell my wine loving friends about the wine-focused establishments here.

At it's core, Kenmore Park & Ride is just another place where you can park your car before you hop…read moreon the bus. But in reality, it's much more than that and much cooler than any other park & ride. This is most definitely the biggest park & ride that I've ever seen. The shelter for waiting for buses is the largest I know of, and of course it has murals on the walls painted by local children. This place has memories. Running from my car to the bus to try and not miss finals. Running from the bus to my car to try and get to the nearest gas station because I had to pee. Helping a friend learn how to drive. One of the coolest things about this place is that there is a heron family that lives in the very back of the lot. I've actually seen a heron fly into the tree, and it was a spectacular bird! Supposedly there are cameras and you can see live footage of the nest from the nearby police station and the Bothell Public Library.

Coming to Kenmore Library today, Monday 23 October 2023, looking for a book to read, I pulled in…read moreoff of Northeast 181st Street to find a packed parking strip on the side of the building. I was like, oh no... where am I supposed to park. Continuing forwards in my vehicle I noticed a slanted drive down under the library building on the left. Then I noticed a sign with an arrow indicating parking. So, I followed the drive in and parked in the garage under the building. An elevator was available to take one up to/down from the library entryway. I took it on the way up, and during my one floor elevator ride remembered I did not like elevators, so I might walk around like I drove into the garage when I went back to my car. Getting off the elevator in the entryway with doors on each side of me, one to the street and one into the library, I entered the library through the door(s) going that way. The interior of the library initially felt small and a librarian was at their station by the entry/exit. Other librarian(s) were about in the library around the shelves. A number of people were sitting on chairs/couches in the library reading books. The chairs/couches were well placed throughout the library as were tables. Each section, such as teen, non-fiction, magazines, etc., was well labeled. Study rooms were open/available for use if wanting a quiet place to close the door and work on something. I was specifically looking for something in the tune of business. The different non-fiction categories were diverse in offerings. I ended up going with a book about putting ideas into action. Different libraries in the King County Library System tend to have different business offerings, and I found the marketing/thought process focus at this library refreshing. Self check out stations were located near the entrance/exit by the librarians' stations. The librarians I interacted with were warm in demeanor. On my way out, I opted to walk back to my car instead of taking the elevator. I found there was even a sidewalk down to the garage. All around I enjoyed my experience.

Small footprint, but close to USPS and City Hall. Parking is not plentiful and it seems as tho the 5 minute "book drop off" spaces are always full. Kenmore is more of a satellite location, than a full size public library. I reluctantly used this library for a while when the Bothell Library was being remodeled. Staff has always been nice in Kenmore, but it lacks the size and amenities of Bothell. It was easy to place books on hold online to pick up and check out at the self-service kiosks. But if you want full service, Kenmore is not your library.

Rating for the passport service…read more Hopefully, you've found the online forms for a passport, filled them out in black ink (or using Adobe fillin feature, which i did). When i did submit my forms, i was instructed to write "Dont know" in the blank spots i had left. Get your passport photo taken; they will do it here but its lots more expensive than going to, say, Costco ($5). Birth certificate and drivers license ready? Call and make an appt. I had to wait 5 days for the next appt. Check for $110 made out to US Dept of State, and $35 (cash, card) to the city for processing (same price everywhere). The building is pleasant, high ceilings, nice to be in. Walking in the front door (from 133rd), you'll pass some cubicles and front desks for the City, the police dept is further down on the left. Parking is cramped. Very quick, efficient service for getting passport documents submitted.

The parking lot can sometimes be overwhelming, but that can be expected. I'm glad that there is a Lush Cosmetics store here, this is always a must for me. On my last visit, I was bummed to see that they no longer have the "Made in Washington" store. I didn't see it last time, and I'm pretty sure I was looking in the right spot. They also used to have a Brighton store I believe, but that is gone too. Aside from the food court options, I like going to the Kizuki Ramen restaurant, and last time I tried a conveyor belt sushi spot that was good.

The different stores and food options I have explored here have varied with my age and focus in life, including for work and hobbies. As a young one, I was not the biggest shopper in the family, so our trips here could feel a bit long. Benches for sitting while waiting have been helpful, though can be spaced out. My experiences here have matured as I have aged into adulthood. Alderwood became my number one when shopping for professional attire and wanting to explore more than one retailer. Going to the movies here is something I have done on occasion, the food options remain my most utilized store/shop option across my childhood and adulthood.

This is a great place to meet up with friends for dinner and a walk. I have many favorite restaurants including Hot Iron, China City and Azul. There are many more to choose from and I think I have tried them all. I am always excited when someone suggest something here as a destination. There are also lots of places for just coffee or a drink. I often finish my visit with a trip to the grocery store Town and Country on my way home. It really feels like a one stop destination and I love not having to move the car multiple times. If you have not checked out the walking trail, you should do so. It's nice and shaded so you don't get too hot or too wet depending on the weather. You can take it from behind the Town Center all the way to McCollum park. It's stroller and dog friendly. There's usually other people out and about so you don't feel too unsafe even though a large portion of it goes behind people's residences. I also really appreciate the Summer Concert Series, this happens on Wednesday nights for the entire summer. It's usually cover bands, if you are lucky you can snag a seat at one of the restaurants bordering the forum on their patio, but if not they provide some seating. It's free and a good way to meet up with friends and listen to some music while enjoying the summer weather. It's usually a good time.

They also gave us tiny take home containers when we clearly needed larger ones and they stopped providing after dinner mints.
