I did it once when it was icy (let's say I would never repeat the same mistake again!). <br /><br />Lady Lorraine, I would recommend the same salon. They cut both men's and women's hair. Check out the website azzarasalonandwine.com and check out the part that reads, "Are we the right salon for you?" It's VERY honest. If that section meets "the young man's criteria" then go! The men's cuts are quite reasonable.Kim Thompsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05256817929710524024noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4456617944315372118.post-55135869238756592512009-12-22T19:19:27.254-08:002009-12-22T19:19:27.254-08:00Kim, would you recommend the same salon for a youn...Kim, would you recommend the same salon for a young man who is very particular about his haircut? Is there another one for guys?

I'd never gone that way before & I was following someone who seemed to know where they were going (I needed to get on 705) to get around the closure on Ruston.<br /><br />Loved your list. :)JoJohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18165375435543044068noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4456617944315372118.post-40513332245313678722009-12-21T08:15:24.054-08:002009-12-21T08:15:24.054-08:00Thanks, Luke (I live in UP and the street close to...Thanks, Luke (I live in UP and the street close to me is nicknamed "poop street" because of all the dog doo and litter). Yes, Abby, you said it! I love my hair by Aura. <br /><br />KR, best school is a wonderful category, but that's a tough one. My heart belongs to Lowell, Mason, and Wilson (because I went there). <br /><br />Stephanie, I disagree about the glass museum. I love the hot shop experience and how they produce the art. And I like the open art room there for the kids (the open art room is terrific at the Tacoma Art Museum too). <br /><br />Costco--now for a large family it does make sense and yes, it's a great company to work for. For us, a family of four, it doesn't work. We've had things go to waste because we can't eat it fast enough (this applies obviously to the perishable goods). I don't like the crowds there and the store layout. And for me, dollar for dollar, I've found that I've saved more money at Fred Meyers. You know I like Marlene's too, but i rarely get out there. You have inspired me to go again!<br /><br />Good discussion all!Kim Thompsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05256817929710524024noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4456617944315372118.post-3734554328176686272009-12-21T07:23:01.140-08:002009-12-21T07:23:01.140-08:00Great post, Kim! I don't agree about Costco. ...Great post, Kim! I don't agree about Costco. For a big family it save $--at least for us--and I like the fact that their employees are so well treated. As a matter of fact Dave will be applying there the first of Feb.<br /><br />Tacoma Art Museum is WAY better than the Glass Museum. Glass is a waste of $. We took out of town guest there and were very disappointed. The walkway is the best part and it's free.<br /><br />Our favorite fast food in Tacoma is it's Greek to Me and usually go when going to the Grand for better movies than you'll find elsewhere. Marlene's is another great fast food place and a great atmosphere. I like, but cannot afford Metropolitan Market and agree about the Proctor District.<br /><br />Your post was perfect for this time of year.

I do not belong and think the whole Costco concept is dumb... the CEO is a millionaire though heheeee. I really enjoyed reading your list and you inspire me to blog, always. I did not know there was so much litter in your street, but will look next time I stock your house LOL ! <br /><br />I MUST take you to the Fair, pay for your ticket and show you the Fair in an enlightened way : )Patty Cakehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16658792795439458891noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4456617944315372118.post-85698715715448220922009-12-20T17:41:14.985-08:002009-12-20T17:41:14.985-08:00Best Bookstore????Best Bookstore????KRhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03808820106800461985noreply@blogger.com
