MUSIC AT THE MARINA

We've been having way too much fun at Music at the Marina this year. Thursday's act is Eldridge Gravy & the Court Supreme; Saturday's is Doctor Funk. Check out the 2016 music schedules here.  Wanna sit and enjoy the show? Reserve a table at Lombardi's here.

FREE OUTDOOR MOVIES
FRIDAY/MULTIPLE LOCATIONS

Friday night is outdoor movie night in Everett. Catch Star Wars:The Force Awakens at BOTH Cinema Under the Stars (at T.A. Sullivan Park) and Sail in Cinema (at Boxcar Park). Yep, both are showing the same movie so the only choice you need to make is whether you want to watch next to Silver Lake or the Puget Sound. Life is good, huh?

THE EVERETT FARMERS MARKETS
EVERY FRIDAY AND SUNDAY

Load up on handcrafted goods and farm-fresh produce at Everett's totally awesome Farmers Markets. Friday's Market is at the Everett Mall from 3-7 PM and Sunday's Market is at Boxcar Park from 11-4 PM. More info here.

MOTHER OF ALL GARAGE SALES
SATURDAY IN THE NORTHWEST NEIGHBORHOOD

North Everett's epic garage sale day lives up to its name – it is, in fact, the mother of all garage sales giving birth to deals upon deals of awesome used stuff. We've always scored big at the MOAGS and this year they have over 125 homes participating in the sale. So yeah, we're expecting to hit the jackpot. Oh, there'll be food trucks, too. Get all of the deets here.

SUP N' SIP
SAT + SUNDAY AT BLUEWATER

Enjoy a guided tour of the Everett Marina followed by delicious craft cocktails at Bluewater. All you have to do is show up with cash, a swimsuit and valid ID. Hydrology will hook you up with the rest of the gear and take you on a fun adventure followed by drinks. Starts are noon. More info here.

EAT + DRINK

We assume everyone already knows about this, but Barney's Pastrami is the most unreal sandwich in Everett. If you've never been, you must get out from under your rock and check it out this week. It's the real deal, folks. A one man, cash-only operation with a line that (on most days) goes out the door. Simple, delicious, unpretentious pastrami sandwiches served by a quiet gentleman in a 'seen better days' building on Evergreen Way. There's very little ambiance or convenience when visiting Barney's Pastrami. You'll have to wait. If you dine in, you'll have to sit on cheap plastic chairs. Barney may or may not be friendly. Either way, it doesn't matter. The fact is, when you strip away all of the fluff and there's still a line out the door, it's evidence that the food is really, really good.
