Barking Dog Report: High Winds, Rain and Waves
It’s been a while since we’ve issued a “Barking Dog Report”. A “barking dog report” is something we post when we are preparing for possible flooding. Similar to a neighbor’s barking dog, there may be a real threat or it may not be. We spent yesterday getting pumps out and preparing for potential flooding (actually, it’s our standard winter prep for living on Puget Sound). [Read more…]
Lost Dog: Have you seen Zuki; UPDATE – ZUKI IS HOME
UPDATE: Great news – Zuki is back home with his humans. 🙂
Lost dog: James: UPDATE – FOUND DOG!!
Have you seen James? He is a Basenji with tan and white markings. He’s skitterish and was seen running south on Beach Drive and up along Jacobsen.
Update 5:15… James is safe back home after his two hour adventure. Thanks to all the neighbors and friends who looked for the lil’ stinker!
Happening now in Puget Sound
The fireboat that is cruising back and forth in Puget Sound is from San Francisco.
I believe this super pumper may be this brand new fireboat.
Vigor Fab is building this new fireboat to add to San Francisco’s fleet.
Pokemon on Beach Drive!
You may have heard of Pokemon, or seen people wandering with their smart phones in hand… maybe you’ve seen a group of people gathering in the same location over and over again… this may all be about Pokemon Go which was released earlier this month. [Read more…]
Just passing by… the Goodyear Blimp!
What a great way to start off the holiday. We just happened to peak out our window to see the Goodyear Blimp floating off the shores of Beach Drive. According to the Goodyear Blimp website, it is scheduled to be in Abbotsford, British Columbia.
Super Yacht Lady Lola cruising by
It looks like Lady Lola may have been leaving Bremerton when we spied her from the shores of Beach Drive. Here’s a pic heading towards Alki Point.
This Super Yacht is 205 feet and available for charter for a mere $365,000… per week! Built in 2002, she was declared the most beautiful yacht of her time. Here’s more info.
If Lady Lola does something remarkable, making her worthy of membership to the Alki Yacht Club, she might be allowed to tie to our buoy!

Bald Eagles off Beach Drive
The other day, a bald eagle apparently decided it did not want to share it’s small fish. (At least, I think it was a small fish).
I watched as these two flew back and forth, landing on rocks and post off Beach Drive by Emma Schmitz View Point.
I have a couple more photos of the eagles posted at Beach Drive Bungalow.
