ABOUT IPA, AND INTRODUCING OUR FIRST COLUMNIST We rate everything from Port Townsend Brewing as quaffable, top-notch suds.   That is our considered position on local beer and we’re sticking to it.   So much for a beer tasting review.  This is really about the last group of dancers in the Rhody Festival Parade.  I was told they call themselves The IPA.   Not India Pale Ale.   No, they are “ The Intergalactic P**sy Alliance. ” You’d know how to fill in the missing letters if you had seen them.   A group of women in very short skirts, some not reaching their thighs so that their underwear was out in the open.   Their dance was nothing more than the thrusting of pelvises at the crowd.   They were nondiscriminatory:   men, women and children alike got the treatment.

We live in a diverse community.   Yet not all our stories are being told.   M...

The City of Port Townsend is financing some of the most expensive residential construction in Jefferson County in the name of “affordable” housing.   Costs have grown far above early estimates and now a hidden subsidy has pushed the projected price of the Cherry Street project over $2 million.   The mid-Twentieth Century building was purchased in Victoria, B.C., barged across the Strait of Juan de Fuca, hauled through a city that had stopped traffic and taken down utility lines, and settled on stacks of wood on May 10, 2017.  This is what it looks like more than a year later.  It remains unoccupied and without a foundation. Here are some views inside: Cherry Street living area (from Homeward Bound FB page) Cherry Street kitchen (from Homeward Bound FB page) Ch...
