It’s about time I let you all know I have a new job.
It started Nov. 28, but as you can tell from my continued coverage of Bainbridge and my presence here on this blog, the new job is a lot like the old job.
I still cover Bainbridge (although I do it mostly from Bremerton), and I still work for the Kitsap Sun.
The difference is I’m now a full-time staffer, which means I get business cards and a computer and a nice little cubicle in this cheerful place reporters here lovingly call the Sungeon. Get it? Sun + Dungeon = Sungeon. It’s a fun place.
And I’m also spending a bit of my time (say around 25 percent) covering parts of North Kitsap: Kingston, Port Gamble, Hansville and that hotbed of action and intrigue, Eglon.
My most recent North Kitsap story was this profile of Icelandic ice cream makers in Poulsbo. I also shot the video that’s linked to it. That’s another new thing about the job – shooting videos and shooting more photos.
I am also doing my part to clear Bremerton’s streets of dog carcasses. But that’s another story.
I have a new e-mail address: tbaurick@kitsapsun.com, and a new phone number: (360) 792-9212.
Congratulation Tristan — you have been doing a great job covering “Our Island” beat and you deserve a promotion to full-time. Keep up the good work. Remember: the press is the watch dog, not the lap dog.

Congratulations and best wishes, Tristan!

And in this economy, your complaining about being employed?
Congratulations and all the best for future.

Congrats Tristan. I actually thought about you today while running to the Pouslbo post office on a work related errand. The site of the old armory is completely gone…poof! Only an empty lot with a bunch of straw on the ground.
Also bug Gardner for the picture of the newly placed 3 hour parking sign and associated parking spaces in front of the Poulsbo Post Office. 3-hour parking right in front of the drive up mail receptical that is located on the wrong side of the street for the driver to access when they pull up.
