Wikipedia information on the TC (Tri-Cities)

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Patricia_Briggs
**The Tri-Cities is also the setting of the Mercy Thompson series by Patricia Briggs.


http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tri-Cities,_Washington
**300 day of sun... i think that this is a lye its way too over cast!


**In 2010, Kiplinger rated the Tri-Cities among the Top 10 best places to raise a family, and CNN/Money ranked the Tri-Cities one of the top 10 best bets for gains in housing value, due to its relatively stable economic conditions since the early 2000s.


**160 wineries within an hour’s drive, the Tri-Cities of Kennewick, Pasco, and Richland is truly at the heart of the Columbia Valley which includes the Yakima Valley, Walla Walla Valley, Red Mountain, Horse Heaven Hills, and Wahluke Slope appellations (areas with a distinctive growing climate that influences wine production). It is easy to conceive that Columbia Valley wineries would produce high-end, premium wines since the Tri-Cities area lies on the same latitude as the world-famous Burgundy and Bordeaux regions of France. The region’s wonderful weather combines with the Columbia Valley’s volcanic soil, producing hot summer days and crisp, cool evening breezes which naturally stress the vines, creating conditions for making great wine


**The Tri-Cities is linked by a system of 67 miles of paved pedestrian and bike trails that run through the various cities and along the rivers. The 23-mile Sacagawea Heritage Trail forms a loop that crosses two bridges and runs along the Columbia River through both Kennewick and Pasco.


**Major annual events in the Tri-Cities are varied and occur throughout the year:
  • Cool Desert Nights - classic car show held in Richland in June. Attracts visitors from throughout the northwest.
  • Tri-Cities Waterfollies - annual unlimited hydroplane racing and air shows including the Columbia Cup, held on the Columbia River in July.
  • Allied Arts Show - annual art show held Richland's Howard Amon Park, in July.
  • Benton/Franklin Fair - annual, regional fair held at Kennewick fairgrounds in late August.


**The Tri-Cities Metro Area has a population of over 248,400 people.

[edit]10,000+ people

** Famous People here

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shelby_SuperCars
**The company is based in West Richland, near the Tri-Cities, Washington and specializes in the production of supercars.
**September 13, 2007, the "Ultimate Aero" took the title of fastest production car from the Bugatti Veyron, which has since been reclaimed by the Bugatti Veyron Super Sport. The Ultimate Aero has a top speed of 414 km/h (257 mph).

    i just deleted my Facebook

    I have my reasons for deleting the hell and addiction that is Facebook. Here are some of my reasons.
         1. It was making me crazy and a stalker
         2. I was posting updates 5-7 times a day.
         3. I was Adding posts on purpose to hopefully upset people.
         4. I was getting tired of rolling outta bed but until after i made my morning FB post and red all the updates.
         5. seeing certain peoples posts and getting upset or swelling
         6. I lost seeing the point of it all.

    So over all the point is I am off  Facebook for now. I see myself falling back into the same root of depression that i was in. I am refusing to do so. One thing i am trying is deleting FB. Maybe only for a week, maybe more. Well just see...

    time, and my favorite kisses on the hands while he was driving. Sounds
    perfect, where did it go wrong you ask.... HELL IF I KNOW!!

    I am mostly positive about the whole ordeal. I know he's been going
    through some depression and other crap. Which i have gone through
    myself. He and i are obviously different. I would have loved to have
    some there like me to help me through it all. Him he is not that
    person.

    I am strong and sad. I am sad that everything seemed like it was going
    smoothly and where it should have been for the 2 month relationship. I
    miss the person. but what can i do? nothing.

    point and case nothing.

    but i have amazing friends and family so ill get over it, mostly am.

    New years resolution

    This year its the same as it alwasy has been. Lose weight. lol I know same ol same ol! But this year i have a plan. And i will be commiting to my slef to loose 20 pounds before April 21. This is when boyfriend and I will be going to Vegas.

    The second resolution will be to make sure i start to get a better hold on my financies. I want to make sure I keep things simple this year. I will be setting my self with small goals. Vegas is my first goal.

    Heres to the new year and going forward!!

    My new years

    Starting the night after work and running around town was invited over to Tionis friends house in Kennewick. There I was force fed what feels like 1.5 pounds of crab. We chit chatted and had quite the nice adult time. Tioni after a few vodkas decided  her and I were going to go dance to Just Dance 2 for the Wii. Super fun! let me tell you! However the fun was called to quits at 11 when boy got off. Sadly I had to leave the festivities to go pick up the boy to take him to his event for the night.

    I arrive at yokes promtly at 11:12 and he comes out shortly there afterwards. we head over to a co-workers of his, house. I am assuming there will be mostly his co-workers there. We park and head in, at the door is a co-worker of his and her husband. When we got inside it was a house of 15-20 drunk people. I felt like I was in a Frat House! Come to find out that therewas only like 3-4 people there he knew. So here i was thinking he was going to be more social and what not. Well after he ate and had a few beers,  we sat down at a table were we basicly only conversated with me. Everyone else spent the time screaming and running around hitting eachother with wooden spoons. let me tell you how amused i was to be "partying" with what felt like collage kids.

    Anyways the only thing that made from 11 onward any good was DJ just being around him is good for me. 5 min until midnight he hugged me and of course kissed at midnight. awwwww (gag). To make a borning story short it was an ok night, but i got to spend it with the one person that I had wanted to! my mr Wonderful Dj
