The Wishing Star by Spokane Grapevine Have you ever visited a place and then felt you had to shout it out to the world. Without a doubt Wishing Star is just such a place..... Not to be confused with Make a Wish foundation which is a national organization. The Wishing Star is based in Spokane and Serves the Greater Inland Northwest. I say that with tongue and cheek because what they really do is serve the CHILDREN of the region. Kids right here that have a life threateni... Read More
Celeste Shaw by Spokane Grapevine Having this blog and having followers, gives us the unique opportunity to share with others what we have found. So. We have found something. We found a bright light, a bastion of tranquility, an unsung hero. Celeste Shaw is the epitome of living life with grace. If you look up the phrase "Do unto others" there would be a picture of Celeste by the caption. In the short time we have known her she has managed to weave her way into our hea... Read More

Not just any Antique Store mind you, but The Vintage Rabbit. Kelly and I were killin' a little time before the festivities down town for First Night and decided to take a slight detour down Monroe street just north of Indiana. I guess you could call it up Monroe from that point but I di... Read More

aNeMonE by Spokane Grapevine Hmmmmm.....have you ever thought of starting a business with just a pile of paper? Well Nate and Mary Eberle did, and what a business they have become!

The amount of... Read More

"The Isaac Foudation" A guest blog from Kalae Chock I'm pretty sure if I ever found my kid dead, I'd die of a broken heart. The thought makes my stomach drop. It makes me sick. But, no matter how much I dislike that thought, that's all it is... a thought. For Reed and Holly Lytle losing a child is their reality. Reed found their four year old son, Isaac, dead in his bed as he went to kiss his little boy good-bye one morning before h... Read More

I pull up to the store, and sure enough we are having a meeting at a Mexican grocery store. At least that is what I thought untill I walked in the front door............ Read More

River Ridge Hardware Ok...so....now you are probably wondering why on earth we would want to review a hardware store. Well lemmie just tell ya.....
