After retiring, Roy Sowerby, under his wife's orders, needed a reason to get out of the house. "I needed to find something to do," he said with a chuckle. "My wife said."

Urban Spelunker: Milton

Milton borders fellow sleepy towns Edgewood and Fife just south of Federal Way. This trio of towns boasts lovely residential areas and a great school district within close proximity to "city living" since it's sandwiched between Tacoma and Seattle. To be quite frank, there isn't a whole lot to do

Original Roadhouse Grill opens

The latest location for the Original Roadhouse Grill is a killer. It's in the Federal Way retail bottleneck, at the back of some plaza that sits like a box canyon; shoppers, diners, and moviegoers alike all funnel into this zone off 320th and Highway 99, half blind from wholesale excess,
