At this month's Compline, for the weekend of All Saints and All Souls day, the theme is "Memento Mori", or "Remember you will die". We will contemplate our own mortality and remember those we have lost.

What just happened

SE auburn near pioneer elementary... 3 am ten gun shots and a guy screaming. I reported it but no idea what happened. I was asleep, close enough to hear but not to see. I really hope they're ok. 🙏🏼

Where can I purchase men's pants in the general Auburn area?

I'm looking for standard business casual men's pants, with a size around 40/30 or so, in the Auburn area. Anyone know of any stores which have them?

Car racing doughnuts

Living on the west hill last night Sunday around 10 to 11 pm the drag racing, doughnuts and engine noise keeps me from sleeping. It is coming from the horse track area sounds to me. All the police need to do is roll down their window once in a while. My windows shake and it keeps me up all summer long, Getting tired of it

I'm sick of the drivers by Auburn Mountainview HS

It's ridiculous. Every day kids and wannabe rich bros in their BMWs and Land Rovers haul ass through the school zone, passing people in the middle lane. Every fucking day. If cops were posted up here consistently you could fund plenty of initiatives in Auburn.

The roads leading to and from Lea Hill from AMHS are just Mad Max at this point.

Visiting soon: Places to go, and places to AVOID?

EDIT: So is South Auburn the only unsafe place? Or does it(understandably) depend on whether it's dark out?

What about the area around Muckleshoot itself?

Was curious about restaurants or other cool places to check out in Auburn. We'll be staying a week perhaps. Other than Muckleshoot, I'd like to know what visitors should check out. As far as restaurants are concerned, I've got issues with onions. But obviously most places have something I can try. We'll probably grab some groceries, but I certainly won't be eating sandwiches for a week. I do plenty of that at home! We'll mostly be free in the late afternoons.

Noticing some of these posts here about crime and shootings(!), so clearly there are areas I need to avoid. Either at night, or avoid period. Any recommendations for safety practices for a wandering stranger?

Frugal’s fry sauce

Hello! Does anyone know the fry sauce recipe? It sounds a simple as ketchup and mayo, but I have tried and tried for years to recreate it. Anyone willing to share the “secret” if they know it 😂

Moving - how sketch is downtown?

Hi all,

My question is, how sketch is downtown Auburn?

I work in Seattle but am pretty sick of dealing with all the chaos of living in the city proper (I live behind a 7/11 where homeless or addicted folks often rummage through the dumpster, the nearest bus stop semi-routinely has needles, and the nearest light rail stop always smells like urine). I grew up in unincorporated Snohomish County, and while I loved the vibrancy of the city in my early-mid 20s, these days, I just want go back to hiding in the woods. My job is in Seattle proper, so I can't just bugger off to Index, but the only thing I appreciate about Seattle is the proximity to work - my exciting hobbies include "walking the dog" and "reading on my couch."

A small house in downtown Auburn costs the same or less or than most of the condos north of Renton/Burien, so it's got me wondering: How rough is the area south of Auburn HS, but north of highway 18?

Thanks for your insight!

MONSTER WEEKEND ahead: Closures on SR 520, NB I-405, SB SR 167, and I-5

Summer construction season is coming to an end, but not before we tackle our biggest weekend of construction for the region this year. We're calling it our Monster Weekend. Buckle up (literally) because here's what's going down:

A map depicting full closures of State Route 520, Mercer Street on ramps to I-5, Northbound I-405 in Renton, Southbound SR 167 in Kent, and I-5 OVERNIGHTS ONLY near Fife. The map is covered in cute cartoon monsters.

SR 520 CLOSED - highway and trail

-Where: From I-5 in Seattle to 92nd Ave NE in Clyde Hill
-When: 11 p.m. Friday, Sept. 27, to 5 a.m. Monday, Sept. 30
-What: Working on lighting and the fire suppression system under the new Montlake lid over SR 520.

NB I-405 in Renton CLOSED

-Where: From Sunset Boulevard Northeast/Southport Drive (Exit 5) to Coal Creek Parkway SE
-When: 11 p.m. Friday, Sept. 27, to 4 a.m. Monday, Sept. 30.
-What: Shifting northbound traffic onto a new bridge. A signed detour will be available. This work is weather-dependent and may be rescheduled.

SB SR 167 in Kent CLOSED

-Where: From SR 516 to South 27th Street
-When: 11:59 p.m. Friday, Sept. 27, to 4 a.m. Monday, Sept. 30.
-Why: Paving and striping sections of SB SR 167. This work is weather-dependent and may be rescheduled.

Both directions I-5 CLOSED - overnights only!

-Where: Between SR 18 in Federal Way and 54th Ave E in Fife
-When: Overnight Friday, Sept. 27, and Saturday, Sept. 28. NB lanes will close by 10:30 p.m. and SB lanes by 11 p.m. On Saturday, lanes begin opening at 7 a.m. (fully open by 11 a.m.). On Sunday, lanes begin reopening at 8 a.m. (fully open by noon).
-Why: Setting girders for a new overpass crossing I-5.

Mercer Street on-ramps to I-5 CLOSED

-Where: Mercer Street on-ramps to both NB and SB I-5 in Seattle
-When: 10 p.m. Friday, Sept. 27, and 5 a.m. Monday, Sept. 30.
-Why: Paving the ramp and adjacent shoulders.

Some of these closures have detours, but a warning: Detour routes cannot accommodate normal traffic volumes, so try to travel during off-peak hours or, if possible, delay your trip to help minimize backups.

It's been a long summer of road work. You've been patient, and we're grateful for that. We need to get this work done now before we fully enter The Big Gray.

Offering Affordable Dental Care!

Hello, WA friends! I am a student at Pierce College's Dental Hygiene program and I am looking for my fall patients!

This quarter (September-December), I am looking for:

  • patients who haven’t been to the dentist in a few years
  • patients who haven't been to the dentist in several years
  • patients who have never gotten a dental cleaning before
  • patients that have previously received a “deep cleaning” or have been diagnosed with “gum disease”

If you aren't any of these types of patients and are interested in becoming a patient in our clinic, message me anyway! I can screen you to see if you're a good fit for a future quarter.

Patients will come in for a few Mondays, Tuesdays, or Thursdays throughout the quarter. Our prices are significantly reduced compared to private dental offices (around 80% cheaper!) and we even offer military discounts & Pierce College student discounts. Our clinic does accept Provider One & Apple Health Care insurance.

Message me if you are interested! (Note: please do NOT share any medical documents or detailed medical history, due to HIPAA law.)

Feel free to share!

Please give me some hope

My husband and I moved to Auburn from Parkland to be closer to his work. I've been reading some of the posts here and the outlook regarding safety seems pretty bleak.

We moved to the North of Auburn, near the edge of Kent.

Is the situation as bad as it sounds in this area?? If so, is there anything I can do to give myself a better sense of safety?

White River Amphitheater - Dirty Heads

I'm going to a show at White River tonight (I'm not the Canadian stoner guy though). Website says the show starts at 6. Is that doors open, or do the bands start at 6?

Can I take a joint into the White River Amphitheatre?

Canadian here, going to a show at the White River Amphitheatre. Would love to smoke a joint at the show, but I'm not sure if it's allowed at the venue? I'm guessing probably not okay to smoke in the pit, but maybe at a designated smoking spot?

SUV for hire

We (6ppl) will be heading to Auburn for the Limp Bizkit concert next Tuesday the 20th.

Just wondering if anyone has a vehicle big enough to fit the 6 of us and wants to make a quick $100 to pick us up after the concert. We can find our own way down.

Pickup would be at the White River Amp theatre around 11 and drop off would be the Days Inn on D st NE.

Thanks!
