To have a great mortgage experience, deal with experienced mortgage banker – brokers. You have the advantage of mulitple lenders, multiple programs, and many advantagers not available by banks and small brokers. Small brokers are suffering many disadvantages. That was our problem at Homes And Loans. Thus we moved to become a branch of a large agressive mortgage bank. We do make the process simple by knowing our craft and being connected to a great company. Larry

Have you tried the pizza at Zeeks in Issaquah Highlands yet? If so – how did you like it? Here our announcement of the new restaurant.
We have and it was great. You might make it a 3 day weekend: visit the Cougar Mountain Zoo, take in Show Boat at the Village Theator, or do something in Bellevue.
For some of Woof Walks favorite photos: Do you love Shelties like my children do? They have had a few. These are photos taken by Laurie. I can tell she loves these pets dearly.
Have You Let the dogs out WOOF WOOF? If not, it’s time to fetch the phone and speak to Laurie at 425.392.1508. Pet sitting, dog, walking, pet loving. Woof Walks has a website, click here for that.
There is a poem on the site you should read: here is a portion of it. Be prepared to cry. If you want someone to care for and love your dog, you have found the right place.
Just this side of heaven is a place called Rainbow Bridge. When an animal dies that has been especially close to someone here, that pet goes to Rainbow bridge. There are meadows and hills for all of our special friends so they can run and play together. There is plenty of food, water and sunshine, and our friends are warm and comfortable.

Teresa Barthol tells me this is a great place for great travel deals. You might visit her travel agency site and see. Click here:
When we moved to Issaquah from Bellevue we decided it was time to get a local insurance agent to handle our home, car, etc. That was about 10 years ago.
You would think it would be easy, but it seemed a little frustrating. We contacted several agents out of the phone book, met one at a local business meeting – but none would follow up with our inquiry.
Our conclusion was if you can’t get to them before they have you how can you get to them once they have got you.
We decided to give a local agent down the street from us a try. We have had claims (unfortunately) and we have had changes to make on our policies. It seems so seamless, our needs and our needs being met.
The agents name is Ron Vanderschaaf. He has Accent Insurance. Give him a call.
Also, he is not only efficient – he is wise. He has just joined the Undressed Network with Issaquah Insurance Undressed. Ron will speak to you the consumer – check his site out – click here and visit it often.

She writes: As a kid horses meant riding and being with my friends. Now they act as natural tranquilizers – their very presence can lower my blood pressure and improve my mood. I simply enjoy watching them do their normal horsey activities – from munching on hay to rolling on their backs in the sandpitt.

Hey, the economony needs those of us in Issaquah to keep spending. Our Gig Harbor Undressed blogger suggests a great sounding way in this he placed on his blog:
My wife laughed at me when I told her I was going to get a massage. Seeing as how I don’t like to be touched, and I’m afraid of germs, she thought that was an odd mix. When I was offered a shot at Myofascial Release, I thought I’d give it a try.
I was amazed. Soul Serenity Massage in Gig Harbor was professional, clean, and unlike any massage I’ve ever heard of. If you’re looking for a spa, massage, masseuse, whatever in the Gig Harbor area, please read my account of Myofascial Release on my merchant’s page! There’s an amazing coupon for a massage on that site as well!
Now you Issaquah Folk: Tell me, where in Issaquah can we find such a place? Or, do you have any other suggestions on ways to spend money just for the sake of the economy. Keep it local, we want issaquah to prosper. How does that saying go? ” As Issaquah does, so does the world.” Proseper Issaquah – Prosper the world.
In the meantime, Kathleen, where is that coupon for a massage. Lar
Perhaps in Issaquah yes, but not next year when the Bentley House opens: CLick here
I grew up in Issaquah,and I thought I knew every restaurant Issaquah had to offer, but I had never heard of Amante until about a week ago. Issaquahs Amante is located in a cute European-style building on Locust Street , and is fairly well hidden from the heavy traffic cruising down Gilman Boulevard. The interior is small and cozy with only a dozen or so tables, but a courtyard also contains a couple more. On a quiet evening, my two friends and I were shown a spot by the window by our friendly server. The first thing that struck each of us was the extensive menu. Amante offers 17 salads; 30 pizzas; six calzones; 10 hot oven grinders (such as turkey or roast beef entres); nine hot sandwiches; 28 pastas; and 12 desserts. The menu even features a low-carb section with six more entres. Amante also allows guests to create their own pizzas and calzones by picking and choosing their own ingredients. Sizes for pizzas range from 10 inches to 18 inches. Entres range from about $7 to close to $30 (mostly for the extra large pizzas). However, most entres run between $9 and $15. . Everything on the menu looked quite delicious, and after coming to terms with the fact we could not possibly eat everything on the menu in one sitting, we made our selections. I order the chicken penne pasta. I received an entre of grilled chicken, artichoke hearts and garlic, all lathered in pesto sauce. The meal was beyond delicious and quite possibly some of the best Italian cuisine Ive ever eaten. My friends ordered the four cheese baked spaghetti and Spartacus pizza. I tried a bite of the spaghetti, which was rich and also very delicious. As somebody with an unhealthy obsession with cheese, I can confidently recommend the dish. The four cheese baked spaghetti and the chicken penne, were very generous servings. My friend found the pizza to be quite tasty. The restaurant also delivers, and guests can order food online. For tasty Italian in Issaquah, look no further.
