All about the West Seattle neighborhood around Beach Drive
These characters may look familiar from Christmas posts just a short while ago. Now, a Beach Drive neighbor has jazzed them up to bring in the New Year.
Thanks again to all of the Beach Drive Neighbors who have contributed articles, photos, reviews and ideas to Beach Drive Blog. We’re looking forward to a fantastic 2008.
Happy New Year!
There were many nice homes decked out along Beach Drive. If your home did not make it to Beach Drive Blog this season…there’s always next year (and you’re just about guaranteed to be able to show off your holiday decor if you email me a photo next time).
Happy New Year from Beach Drive Blog!
Our very own Suky Hutton has a terrific article in the January 2008 issue of Seattle Metropolitan Magazine about the mysterious white rooster who was also featured on Beach Drive Blog.
It’s a very enjoyable read and I highly recommend you pick your copy today and check out the SeaTown Diary section with Suky’s article and learn more about Coner the white rooster of Mee Kwa Mooks Park.
Hat tip to Larry for giving me a heads up about our Beach Drive Neighbor.
