This a group started by friends who want to experience new (and old) things with new (and old) friends. After looking for a Meetup of people to experience new things with, we were discouraged by the fact that there don't seem to be any groups for women of ALL ages to experience ALL that life in our community has to offer.

I will concentrate on day-hikes in the Cascade Mountains along the I-90 corridor and also Mt. Rainier.  These areas are way too crowded on weekends and are best enjoyed in the relative peace and quiet of a weekday. Most hikes will be …

This group was inspired by the hundreds of workshops I have given all over the US. Photographers were asking for ways to build their portfolios with high quality images and unique concepts. They were running out of ideas / did not have ideas, could not find models, locations or sets and were hitting a wall. After all a photography web-site filled with photos of your dog or your own children might not say "professional" in a way you want it to. This is what we will do here. The instructors will a …
