It’s unfortunate that, in today’s society, there is so much pressure on new moms to “bounce back” and lose the baby weight. It took nine months to put on the baby weight, so why would anyone expect to lose the weight in less time than that? I get the hype of working out (well most of it, anyways).

Cover photo courtesy of Alana LivingstonBy Alana LivingstonI remember passing by a sign near Northtown Mall a few years ago that simply said “Float.” At the time, I didn’t pay much attention to it.

Clark says he was bothered by the lack of street performers in Spokane compared to other cities. To address this, he played his acoustic guitar every day for a week in 2002, collecting money that he then donated to the food bank.

By Alana LivingstonCover photo courtesy of Alana LivingstonIf you have tried a freeze-dried meal on any of your outdoor adventures, you would probably describe it as . . . meh.
