Seattle’s After Dark bonus is fun, but are we just dangling more carrots?

I get it — the After Dark Low Qualifier bonus is meant to spice things up for fans and give teams incentive to really hang it out at night. It looks awesome under the lights, no question. But sometimes I wonder: are we overloading these guys with “extra games”? Low ETs at night are cool, but shouldn’t every round already be a full send? Maybe I’m just old school. Either way, still gonna enjoy watching someone try to knock out a 3.67 under the lights. #NHRA #DragRacing #Motorsport #FutureTech #Seattle

Delta vs. Alaska: Seattle’s New Flight Showdown

Delta just dropped some big travel news—new nonstop flights from Seattle to Rome and Barcelona are launching in May 2026! They’re stepping up their game against Alaska Airlines, who also just announced a Seattle-Rome route. Looks like Seattle’s about to become the new gateway to Europe, and we’re here for it. Who’s ready to plan a Euro trip? #DeltaAirlines #TravelNews #Seattle #Travel

Night sessions hit different, even if it’s mostly marketing

Look, I know the Seattle After Dark thing is partly a marketing ploy — but I also don’t care. Nothing like standing at the 660 at dusk, feeling the air get heavy, watching header flames crackle. It’s just more alive at night. If NHRA wants to keep dangling bonuses to pack the stands after dark, sign me up. I’ll buy the beer. #NHRA #DragDriving #Seattle #NightRacing #FanExperience

san francisco vs seattle: which city wins for solo trips?

Last night, I spent an hour scrolling through travel blogs, trying to decide between San Francisco and Seattle for my solo getaway. I want to spend four days just exploring, eating good food, and soaking up the atmosphere. But honestly, I’m torn. San Francisco has those iconic hills and the Golden Gate Bridge, but I keep hearing about the wild prices and the crowds. Seattle, on the other hand, looks so green and laid-back, but I’m worried it might just rain the whole time and I’ll end up stuck in my hotel room with a soggy umbrella. I’m not looking for wild nightlife—just some good coffee, maybe a quirky bookstore, and places where I won’t feel out of place wandering alone. I’ve had trips before where I felt totally invisible in a big city, and that’s not what I want this time. If you’ve been to either city, did you feel welcome as a solo traveler? Did you find it easy to get around, or did you end up lost and frustrated? And honestly, which city has better food for someone who’s not looking to break the bank? I’d love to hear if anyone else has faced this dilemma and how you made your choice. Sometimes it feels like picking between fog and drizzle! #solotravel #sanfrancisco #seattle #Travel

is rainier too snowy for hiking in late may?

My daughter and I are planning a little adventure—just the two of us, driving from Boise to Seattle before our family cruise. We’re hoping to squeeze in two days of hiking along the way. I had my heart set on Mount Rainier, but now I’m reading that late May might be a bust unless we want to haul ice axes and snowshoes. I don’t know about you, but I’m not exactly itching to break a leg or freeze my toes off before a cruise! Last year, we tackled Zion’s Narrows and even braved Angels Landing (still proud of that, by the way), so we’re up for a challenge, but I’d rather not risk sliding down a glacier. Has anyone actually tried Rainier hikes in late May? Is it really that snowy, or are people just being overly cautious? And if Rainier is out, what other jaw-dropping hikes are there between Boise and Seattle? I’d love something with epic views, but ideally not something that requires me to buy a whole new set of winter gear. If you’ve done this route or have a favorite trail that’s not buried in snow, I’d love to hear about it. Any hidden gems or must-see spots? I’m open to all suggestions—just don’t send me somewhere I’ll need crampons and a rescue team! #hikingadventures #rainier #roadtrip #familytime #seattle #Travel

Whole Foods Closes in Seattle—What’s Next?

Heads up, Seattle shoppers! The Capitol Hill Whole Foods is shutting its doors for good after seven years, so now’s the time to snag those clearance deals. The closure isn’t about the recent cyber hiccup or delivery delays—it’s just that this spot wasn’t pulling its weight. But don’t worry, the staff is being moved to other stores, and Whole Foods is still opening new spots, including smaller, local-focused shops in NYC and beyond. Looks like your grocery run might get a little more local! #WholeFoods #Seattle #GroceryShopping #Business #LocalBusiness

Delta’s Big Move: Seattle Gets A350 Base

Delta’s setting up a new home for its fancy A350 jets in Seattle, making it easier for West Coast travelers to hop direct to Asia. Why the switch? Delta’s swapping out older planes for these roomier, quieter rides—think more comfort and fewer layovers for your next Tokyo or Seoul trip. Meanwhile, Alaska Airlines is also beefing up its long-haul game, so Seattle flyers are about to get some serious options. Time to start planning that bucket-list getaway! #DeltaAirlines #TravelHacks #Seattle #Business
