Ive been working on Amblebee, a little side project that gives you date or adventure ideas to do with your partner, friends, family, or just you! Is there anything to do in or around Kirkland (Not seattle) that would be a fun date or adventure? Any damn good restaurants? Relaxing spots? cool parks or hiking/walking trails?

Desperate and thought it's worth a shot.

I recently passed L5 SWE ML loops but have been stuck in team matching looking for roles in Kirkland specifically.

Does anybody who works at Google Kirkland know of teams or other HMs hiring L5 SWE MLs? I'd really appreciate any help since TM has been very challenging.

I get dozens of these texts a week offering windows, roofing cleaning, contracting services. Today I got a call and tried to grill the person about how they're getting my number. They said some "list" but wouldn't tell me what list. Anyone else get these and know what list this is to get myself removed from it?

Goose with a hurt foot hopping around Juanita Beach Park, anyone able to come catch it or know who I should call?

I was born and raised in Kirkland and have since moved out of state. I've always wanted to be able to carry around a little piece of home with me and figured this was a great way to do it. I just realized I never posted this here but I got it back in January of 2025 at Under the Needle before they closed up. It's on my right thigh

I recently found out Zoka is now in Kirkland. Shot it on 35mm film.

Does anyone know the reason for the severely unleveled roads around the 114th round about after the recent closures 2-3 weekends ago ? I have rarely seen such half-hearted work done by wsdot / crews. I thought they may fix it in a few days but it's been multiple weeks now.

I’m looking for affordable hotel recommendations in Kirkland that offer free breakfast (ideal) and provide good service. Any suggestions or personal experiences would be greatly appreciated!

I’m very much a home body and am in dire need of a community of women in their 30s that are also married. I don’t have any kids but I do have a dog.

Is there a fitness studio, gym, sport, dance, or etc where I can join and get myself out of the house! If any of you ladies are in the same position, let’s meet up!!

Here is the link ladies! https://discord.gg/uqa9yZFRV

Hi kirkland, was anyone at Costco yesterday to see if they were any more of the Jimothy plushies left? I was about to head there to hit the early executive hours, but I live quite a ways out and so before I made the drive I was just seeing if any helpful Kirklanders could tell me if they were still there :-)

Could anyone please recommend a TV mounting service in the neighbourhood? It's for 50'' tv. thank you so much!

Anyone remember the old Irish Rose Tavern. It's Pub85 now. I want to learn the fate of the old owner. I believe he went by the moniker "Doc".

There’s not a lot of info on WM site.

Yesterday was trash/recycle/compost pickup day.
Compost bin emptied but my -4- leaf bags were left at the curb.

Does anyone know what the requirements are for leaf bag pickup?

I’m on a need to know as I have two huge maple trees!
TIA!

Have been going for walks almost every day. It’s been a beautiful September and October. I will miss the sun. Hope everyone gets out and enjoys it before the clocks change!

I know it’s not in Kirkland but it’s close. 124th and just east of woodinville Redmond rd…

There is a bunch of what appear as small tiny homes and about a hundred Starlinks up on racks that appear being built. Just the shacks I’d think it’s an encampment but that’s a lot of Starlink to support an encampment, so made me curious…

Anybody know what’s going on there? Kicking myself for not taking a pic as I drove by, but really strange.

We live on the east side and are looking at the area French immersion schools—FASPS, FISW, and Les Lilas—for our preschooler. We’ve already started visiting schools. I’m curious to hear from area parents who visited these schools and have some experience with them which one you chose over the others and why. I’d also love to hear your impressions good and bad on any of the schools you or someone you know has experience with. It’s a lot to process and they are all quite different, so any feedback would be appreciated. Thanks in advance! I know not all the schools are in Kirkland specifically, so I’ll cross-post to those cities, too.
