This Washington Airport Diner Serves Huge Breakfast Portions While Planes Land On The Runway Outside
Some folks order a chicken fried steak here that one diner described as big as your head. Then a small plane rolls past the window, and suddenly breakfast has a co-star. This retro cafe sits right beside a working airfield in eastern Washington. Big windows face the runway, so aircraft come and go while the coffee keeps flowing.

Mead ends Kamiakin's volleyball season in five-set battle for state berth
Kamiakin’s hopes of returning to the Class 4A state volleyball tournament ended Thursday night in a five-set loss to Mead, bringing a heartbreaking conclusion to a season that included an undefeated Mid-Columbia Conference championship. The Panthers defeated the Braves 25-20, 12-25, 25-19, 9-25, 15-7 in a winner-to-state, loser-out District 6 playoff match at Kamiakin High School. For Kamiakin’s eight seniors, it was the final chapter of a season the team had called its “Last Dance.” After the match, emotional players embraced one another on the court before gathering in a corner of the gym, where they remained together long after the final point. “Tonight was a tough loss,” Kamiakin coach Morgan Schauble said afterward. “That’s not what we wanted.” A five-set fight for state Mead took the opening set 25-20 before Kamiakin answered with a commanding 25-12 victory in the second. Junior Tianna Bruinsma recorded six kills in the second set, helping the Braves even the match. The Panthers regained the advantage with a 25-19 third-set victory, putting Kamiakin one set away from elimination. But the Braves responded with their most dominant set of the night, winning the fourth 25-9 to force a decisive fifth set. Junior Olivia Johnson contributed
