Parents of students a Alki Elementary will join 50 neighbors and community supporters in attending the “Stop Alki Cell Towers” Information Rally and Demonstration on Alki Beach, Thursday, May 7 at 7 p.m. Rally will end with kids throwing 12 cardboard cell tower replicas into a fire pit, as a way of saying they don’t want 12 new cell antenna transmitters to be built so close to their school.
The ginormous West Seattle Community Garage Sale is coming up this Saturday. The weather for Saturday should be beautiful – which never hurts a successful garage sale. Check out the map for registered garage sales!
If you are planning on having a garage sale on Saturday OR ANY DAY, and you’re a Beach Drive neighbor, we are happy to post it here. Just send us an email with the nitty gritty and we will help spread the word.
Two West Seattle families completely lost their homes yesterday from a devastating fire. Another home was damaged by the same 2-alarm fire as well.
If you are interested in donating, two “crowd funding” sites have been set up for the two families. Click here for Tom and Mary and here for Amy and John‘s fundraising sites.
UPDATE: Another crowd funding site has been added for the other home that was involved with fire. Click here for Ellie and her husband.

…actually, in the ten years we’ve lived on Beach Drive…this has to the first time I’ve seen this!
It appears to be a photo shoot. I can barely make out the name on the back of the boat “Endurance” with a couple letters following. Any more info on this? I love it when Delta Marine test drives their mega-yachts in our back yard… Endurance looks like it could a model from Hampton Yachts?
Awoken by a barking sea lion…low flying helicopter over a motorboat… just a typical week! 😉
…barking Sea Lion! This morning around 5:30 am, our household was jolted awake by the song of very loud sea lion. As I write this post, he (or she) is currently barking it up in front of Emma Schmitz View Point – enjoy!
UPDATE: Franci has been FOUND! She is reunited with her human. 🙂
Francis (aka Franci) is missing from 4200 Chilberg Avenue SW. Last seen at 8:45 AM this morning, April 8, 2015.
Friendly older dog, beagle lab mix. 50 lbs. tan and white. She is micro-chipped and wearing a turquoise patterned collar.
Please call 206.930.4593.
Her human is offering a reward.
We know Franci and she is a sweetie – we hope she’s reunited with her human soon!

House from the 30s torn down in the 60s with lot subdivided into three lots with middle lot now at 4731 Beach Drive. Note roof of current existing house in right side of photo with tile roof. Photo obtained from Puget Sound Regional Branch archivist.
Thanks for sharing!
Update: Bacchaus has been found and reunited with his humans.
Have you seen this missing Siamese cat. He last seen on 59th ave SW/Andover/Charlestown. Contact 949.861.0919 if found. Cat’s name is Bacchaus.
I am guessing this sail boat race is the Corinthian Yacht Club South Sound Series, just passing Lincoln Park and heading to Three Tree Point. If you know differently, please chime in!
Jackson has been missing from the 5400 block of Beach Drive since Wednesday, March 18, 2015.
