Back on the writing wagon

Due mostly to a long, arduous and particularly unpleasant legislative session (sessions, really, since we had three this year), I’ve been unable to blog with any consistency since late 2012. I know that’s not an excuse but for someone who writes every day for a living, pretty much the last thing I want to do after writing for 10 hours is come home and write some more (even if it is about a subject I love!).

However, much like working out and eating right, just because I don’t feel like doing it doesn’t mean it can fall by the wayside.

So, explanations aside, this is my pledge to get back to work bringing you all the great things we love about Washington State. From it’s history (I recently read an essay on the hanging of Chief Leschi at InfoLink…fascinating!) to its hidden gems (took the family through Soap Lake again this summer!) and everything else that makes Washington the greatest state in the lower 48, you’ll be reading more posts from us again very soon!

Thanks for your patience.

About Washington Our Home

My name is Erich Ebel and I love this state. I’ve lived on the green side as well as the brown side. I’ve navigated the rivers and climbed the mountains. I’ve fished its lakes, hiked its trails, marveled at its geology, and studied its fascinating, storied history. I’ve spent the past ten years discovering and sharing stories about Washington’s history, heritage, and culture. My blog, videos, and podcasts hold a treasure trove of interesting facts, unknown facets, and fascinating tales that help to educate the general public about the privileges of being in Washington. I’m the current chair of the City of Lacey Historical Commission, and previously served as Marketing and Communications Director for the Washington State Historical Society and Museum. I’ve been a board member for the Washington Trust for Historic Preservation, and the History Insider for Scenic Washington magazine.
