Seattle Dog Parks

June 6, 2007 by Leave a Comment

A few months ago, a BDB reader inquired about local Dog Parks…I was just reading a few blogs over at Citizen Rain and came across this article from Green Spaces Real Estate:

"Westcrest Dog Park in West Seattle (located north of SW Roxbury on 8th Avenue SW). Westcrest is of particular interest…because it has only the 2nd "small and shy dog area" designated for small – and/or shy – dogs…."

I know…it’s not Lincoln Park.   I’m not sure if Westcrest was mentioned before…just thought I would share it with you.

Maybe I’ll become a “Beach Drive Bird Blog Lady”

I thought I was pretty lucky yesterday when I spied four heron together.  Unfortunately, I could only capture 3 in my camera lens…you’ll have to trust me the solo fellow was standing by the other 3 birds.

You can imagine my surprise when today, I discovered a two-headed bald eagle off of Emma Schmitz Viewpoint.

Okay…I don’t want anyone squawking at me.   It is not a two headed eagle but it was quite a site.   This pair of baldies managed to draw a few onlookers (besides me) from the park.

Did you catch the moon setting last night?  I think I’ll be getting a tri-pod for Christmas…even though this photo was taken by my husband…maybe he’ll get one for Father’s Day!

These photos are from a family trip to D.C. back on our Spring Break of 2004.   I thought I would share them with you to honor those who have served our country.

Beach Drive cottage…safe for now.

I adore this house and wish I coulda woulda bought it when it was on the market.   I am tickled pink to see the work being done (stone fireplace and it looks like it’s being prepped for paint) which indicates this beauty will not be torn down.     I have not lived on Beach Drive long enough to know the lady that lived here before…I’ve heard a fond story or two.     It’s been interesting to watch the renovation in progress.
