The Railroad in Sequim
History is everywhere around Sequim, but some of it can only be found at the museum, historical references and in the memories of our pioneers. Aside from our pioneers there is little to help us remember the trains that used to travel through Sequim.
The railroad reached Sequim in 1915 and carried passengers from Port Townsend and Port Angeles. With the arrival of the railroad, Sequim became the agricultural marketing center of the Peninsula. Passenger service was ended in 1931 and continued to carry freight until 1986, when the Milwaukee line abandoned the railroad and the tracks were removed. Today the Sequim Bypass follows part of the rail line through town and the Olympica Discovery Trail utilizes much of the former right-of-way.

Western Hemisphere Travel Initiative (WHTI) will go into effect June 1, 2009 for land and sea travel into the U.S.
Why is Washington State issuing EDL/IDs? (Enhanced Driver License/ID Cards)
For info - go to http://www.dol.wa.gov/
The federal government recently passed the Western Hemisphere Travel Initiative (WHTI), which requires a passport or other federally-approved identification or proof-of-citizenship document for all travel into the United States. To preserve travel, trade, and cultural ties with British Columbia and increase security at the border, the Washington State Department of Licensing is offering EDL/ID Cards to Washington residents who choose to participate. The EDL/ID meets federal requirements, and is an approved alternative to a passport for re-entry into the U.S at land and sea borders between the U.S., Canada, Mexico, Bermuda, and the Caribbean.
Western Hemisphere Travel Initiative (WHTI) will go into effect June 1, 2009 for land and sea travel into the U.S. WHTI went into effect for air travelers on January 23, 2007.

Goodwill in Port Angeles will accept electronic equiment
http://sequimgazette.com/Article/articleDetail.exm/Index/article/2009-01-07_Goodwill_to_accept_electronics/
Goodwill to accept electronics. (See article from the Sequim Gazette) Free recycling of TVs, computers, laptops and monitors will start Jan. 2 at Goodwill stores statewide. Goodwill will accept all electronic equipment — including keyboards, printers, other peripherals and cell phones. “We offer more than 40 free, convenient drop-off locations across western and southcentral Washington,” said Eric Hulscher, Goodwill operations manager overseeing the program. “Participating in the program is in keeping with Goodwill’s reduce, reuse and recycle efforts.” He added, “This is a permanent, ongoing program, not a one-day event.” A Goodwill store and donation center are located at 603 S. Lincoln St. in Port Angeles. For information about other Goodwill donation locations, go online to www.tacomagoodwill.org. Additional information about the statewide program is available online at www.ecyclewashington.org. E-Cycle Washington, created under a 2006 state law, provides for recycling of unwanted electronics products. Manufacturers are funding the project and the state Department of Ecology is monitoring the effort to ensure material is processed properly. Tacoma Goodwill is a certified collector in the program. In 2008, Goodwill provided job-training and placement services to 5,241 people with proceeds from gently used clothes and household items that are sold in Goodwill’s stores. Donations to the nonprofit agency are tax deductible.

Uses for WD-40 ... got this as an e-mail - are these all true?
Before you read to the end, does anybody know what the main ingredient of WD-40 is?
Who knew?
I had a neighbor who had bought a new pickup. I got up very early one Sunday morning and saw that someone had spray painted red all around the sides of this beige truck (for some unknown reason). I went over, woke him up, and told him the bad news. He was very upset and was trying to figure out what to do. Probably nothing until Monday morning, since nothing was open. Another neighbor came out and told him to get his WD-40 and clean it off. It removed the unwanted paint beautifully and did not harm his paint job that was on the truck. I'm impressed! WD-40 who knew?
'Water Displacement #40' The product began from a search for a rust preventative solvent and degreaser to protect missile parts. WD-40 was created in 1953 by three technicians at the San Diego Rocket Chemical Company. Its name comes from the project that was to find A 'water displacement' compound. They were successful with the fortieth formulation, thus WD-40. The Corvair Company bought it in bulk to protect their atlas missile parts. Ken East (one of the original founders) says there is nothing in WD-40 that would hurt you. When you read the 'shower door' part, try it. It's the first thing that has ever cleaned that spotty shower door. If yours is plastic, it works just as well as glass. It's a miracle! Then try it on your stovetop ... Viola! It's now shinier than it's ever been. You'll be amazed.
Here are some other uses:
01. Protects silver from tarnishing.
02. Removes road tar and grime from cars.
03. Cleans and lubricates guitar strings.
04. Gives floors that 'just-waxed' sheen without making them slippery.
05. Keeps flies off cows.
06. Restores and cleans chalkboards.
07. Removes lipstick stains.
08. Loosens stubborn zippers.
09. Untangles jewelry chains.
10. Removes stains from stainless steel sinks.
11. Removes dirt and grime from the barbecue grill.
12. Keeps ceramic/terra cotta garden pots from oxidizing.
13. Removes tomato stains from clothing.
14. Keeps glass shower doors free of water spots.
15. Camouflages scratches in ceramic and marble floors.
16. Keeps scissors working smoothly.
17. Lubricates noisy door hinges on vehicles and doors in homes.
18. It removes black scuff marks from the kitchen floor! Use WD-40 for those nasty tar and scuff marks on flooring. It doesn't seem to harm the finish and you won't have to scrub nearly as hard to get them off. Just remember to open some windows if you have a lot of marks.
19. Bug guts will eat away the finish on your car if not removed quickly! Use WD-40!
20. Gives a children's playground gym slide a shine for a super fast slide.
21. Lubricates gear shift and mower deck lever for ease of handling on riding mowers.
22. Rids kids rocking chairs and swings of squeaky noises.
23. Lubricates tracks in sticking home windows and makes them easier to open.
24. Spraying an umbrella stem makes it easier to open and close.
25. Restores and cleans padded leather dashboards in vehicles, as well as vinyl bumpers.
26. Restores and cleans roof racks on vehicles.
27. Lubricates and stops squeaks in electric fans.
28. Lubricates wheel sprockets on tricycles, wagons, and bicycles for easy handling.
29. Lubricates fan belts on washers and dryers and keeps them running smoothly.
30. Keeps rust from forming on saws and saw blades, and other tools.
31. Removes splattered grease on stove.
32. Keeps bathroom mirror from fogging.
33. Lubricates prosthetic limbs.
34. Keeps pigeons off the balcony (they hate the smell).
35. Removes all traces of duct tape.
36. Folks even spray it on their arms, hands, and knees to relieve arthritis pain.
37. Florida's favorite use is: 'cleans and removes love bugs from grills and bumpers.'
38. The favorite use in the state of New York, WD-40 protects the Statue of Liberty from the elements.
39. WD-40 attracts fish. Spray a little on live bait or lures and you will be catching the big one in no time. Also, it's a lot cheaper than the chemical attractants that are made for just that purpose. Keep in mind though, using some chemical laced baits or lures for fishing are not allowed in some states.
40. Use it for fire ant bites. It takes the sting away immediately and stops the itch.
41. WD-40 is great for removing crayon from walls. Spray on the mark and wipe with a clean rag.
42. Also, if you've discovered that your teenage daughter has washed and dried a tube of lipstick with a load of laundry, saturate the lipstick spots with WD-40 and rewash. Presto! The lipstick is gone!
43. If you sprayed WD-40 on the distributor cap, it would displace the moisture and allow the car to start.
44. Removes pricing labels adhesive, and tape adhesives.
P. S. The basic ingredient is FISH OIL.
