Ahhh, December. For at least a decade December has been the month where we look at one another and say, “This year was crazy!” As the days get shorter and the holiday to-do lists get longer, everyone from Port Townsend to Brinnon and Marrowstone to Queets is gearing up for their annual Olympic-level sport: finding perfect local gifts without getting distracted by holiday treats, Christmas lights, or someone you haven’t seen since before the pandemic and just bumped into outside the co-op. This is the season when shopping local becomes heroic. Need a present? Our businesses have you covered: no shipping delays, no porch pirates, and no algorithm trying to convince you that grandpa can’t shave properly without a new bluetooth straight razor. Every dollar stays right here, boosting the longevity of our brick and mortar businesses, helping our rural economy, keeping our bus system <https://www.edcteamjefferson.org/p/l/eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9.eyJuZXdzbGV0dGVyX2xpbmtfaWQiOjM3MTA5MjV9.-kLHO7CLMlt21bPhAWmVOBsVS9_kwOEB19ImGUGFHTQ/eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9.e yJzdHVkZW50X2lkIjozMzY3MDM4NCwibmV3c2xldHRlcl9pZCI6MjgyMTU2Mn0.p16o7yyY27VPoLg2FMJLJ9JCRlt_pMhedLR2i0akc_U> running, and so much more. And if your holiday spirit is running a little low, volunteering will cheer you up. Lend a hand, help a neighbor out, push your personal social boundaries and put yourself “out there.” It’s the ultimate small-town feel-good activity of the year, and it’s cheaper than therapy! Here’s to wrapping up the year with humor, community, love (or at least a little extra tolerance) for each other, and maybe one too many slices of Halfway House pie <https://www.edcteamjefferson.org/ p/l/eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9.eyJuZXdzbGV0dGVyX2xpbmtfaWQiOjM3MTA5MjZ9.UMRzvtBNN78T8ao4ryP0Tm3NV5-1srUfH0QCpepzeiI/eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9.eyJzdHVkZW50X2lkIjozMzY3MDM4NCwibmV3c2xldHRlcl9pZCI6MjgyMTU2Mn0.p16o 7yyY27VPoLg2FMJLJ9JCRlt_pMhedLR2i0akc_U> .
