Orcasopoly is a parody of Monopoly focused on all things Orcas Island, Washington. Jail is “ON STANDBY” for the San Juan Ferry, since it’s almost always down at least 1 ferry due to maintenance or crew shortage. Ya never know till the last minute if you’ll actually get on a ferry. #islandlife

An exciting insight into the boyhood of my maternal grandfather whom I met once when he visited our home on Perkins Lane in Seattle. He sat on a black folding chair with yellow seat cushion and back rest. But at age 4 or 5 I don’t remember much else about him. #ancestry #genealogy #familyhistory

The Dec 2024 issue of the Smithsonian has an article about Bob Fletcher who worked the farms of 3 Japanese families while they suffered internment during WWII. He paid the property taxes and saved half the farm profits so the families could return to their properties in Florin CA.
