The old Edmonds Opera House, later a skating rink, now home to the Edmonds Masonic Lodge, stands majestically in the center of the block of Dayton Street between 5th and 6th Avenues. The building serves as a symbol of the town’s history and of its present-day significance.
Edmonds residents and current Masonic Lodge members Roger Barnstead and Steve Pennington have expressed a great love of the building and of its history.
“The building and its members are a ‘Who’s Who’ of Edmonds history,” says Pennington. “George Brackett, several members of the Yost family, Ray V. Cloud, former mayors, business leaders, decorated military members, and a host of interesting characters.”

REDMOND, Wash. Just off Redmond-Fall City Road, a twinkling driveaway marks a detour to another world. Magical is really the perfect word for it,” said Rob Rose, owner of The Christmas Shop at Timber Creek.
It’s a log cabin built in 1925 that, once a year, changes into a floor-to-ceiling holiday extravaganza. Rose, an interior designer by trade, runs the Christmas Shop at Timber Creek with his husband Gerry Ketchum. He ll come up with the start of an idea and yeah - I usually blow it way out of proportion, Rose laughed.
