📓 School is Delayed (For Some), Bats, and a Block Party
Monday, August 25th in Vancouver, Washington
Happy Monday, Vancouver!
Can you believe August is almost over? Summer is slowly winding down, but the heat is sticking around while Labor Day Weekend looms large and school is back in session (for some). Meanwhile, the new In-N-Out in Ridgefield drew lines that could qualify as their own tourist attraction ALLLLLLLLL weekend long. So yes, summer isn’t done with us yet, and neither is the fun!
Here's what to expect in today's edition of The PNW Report (Vancouver)😀
