I assume you are in the Seattle area (suburbs) based on the fact you are worried about it being wet...

Just curious, just moved to Ellensburg in the last month or so...

I am in the Longview / Kelso area in SW WA. It's about an hour north of Portland, 2 hours south of Seattle. I lived in E-burg for 7 years. Beautiful, friendly, and very comfortable place to live. Go get a supermother @ the Tav. best burger in town.

I have had family in the Seattle area ever since I was a kid (Longview, Bremerton, Bellingham, Everette, Monroe, Puyallup) having grown up in the Tri-Cities. We passed through (by) Eburg often, but never spent a lot of time there.

It's a big change having lived the last 10 years in Boise. But having lived in Milton-Freewater (or close enough to Walla Walla), I hope to adjust back into a slower pace.

So, the Tav.?, which one?

Oak Rail Tavern
301 N Pearl St, Ellensburg

Frontier Tavern
111 W 4th Ave, Ellensburg

First & Last Chance Tavern
1200 E University Way, Ellensburg

It's called the Tav. You will adjust, I'm sure. People are very friendly, great art community, lots of history, and very outdoor oriented. Lots of big trucks, it is a cow town. You'll fit right in.

Tav - Google Maps

Starter showed up thurs while I was out of town. got back @ noon today, was done by 1:30, by myself, laying on the ground, with it 20 degrees outside. Dare I say it was a very easy fix, even in less than desireable conditions, and I am no mechanic. by the time I got set up, all told it took about 20 minutes. truck started so fast it startled me.....
holy crap that is a good starter. All is well
