"Tacoma was incorporated on November 12, 1875, following its selection in 1873 as the western terminus of the Northern Pacific Railroad due to lobbying by McCarver, future mayor John Wilson Sprague, and others. However, the railroad built its depot on New Tacoma, two miles (3 km) south of the Carr-McCarver development. The two communities grew together and joined, merging on January 7, 1884. The transcontinental link was effected in 1887, and the population grew from 1,098 in 1880 to 36,006 in 1890. Rudyard Kipling visited Tacoma in 1889 and said it was 'literally staggering under a boom of the boomiest'." Tacoma, Washington - Wikipedia

Seeing the spaghetti was not an option at Spaghetti with a Twist, a small fundraiser for the Blind and Independent Living Program at TACID (Tacoma Area Coalition of Individuals with Disabilities).

Article: Lobster Shop - Still Excellent Service and Food - Restaurant Review
A friend called Thursday afternoon after seeing on Facebook that Peg and I had tested negative for COVID. We weren't really concerned, but were taking precautions. After chatting I suggested he and his wife join us at the Lobster Shop to celebrate my birthday and the Pierce County Restaurant Rally offering a 30% price reduction. We had reservations and thought that the Lobster Shop could accommodate two more people. The could . . . and they did.
