Giant Slugs Invade Beach Drive
November 18, 2010 by 2 Comments
These photos were recently submitted of ginormous slugs invading homes on Beach Drive leaving a devastating trail behind them.
We have no idea if this phenomenom is caused by El Nino, all the windy weather or the pending snow. You may want to get your giant salt shakers ready just in case.
Keep safe!

There's a slight chill in the air signally that Halloween will soon be here. We've noticed some very spooky occurrences and some neighborhood homes including mummies hanging from play-sets and an abundance of orange spiderwebs. Do you have a scary looking home this Halloween? Please send us your photos to so we can share them here (plus then you won't have to wonder who the creepy blogger is taking photos of your home). You can send an email (address in the upper right corner) or share on our Facebook Group page or the Community Forums.
You can also join in on Beach Drive Blog's virtual pumpkin carving and Halloween costume contest for Beach Drive and neighbors. Submit your photos for the contest by Saturday, October 30, 2010 to make sure they're in time to be viewed by our ghoulish judges with winners announced on Halloween.

I first caught this storie via a tweet from West Seattle Blog…the photo was udderly hysterical. I then ventured to their blog and it appears nobody is coming forward with their story about the Sea Cow.
It was enough for my hubby and me to venture out to Alki Point to see if for ourselves.
Thrones of Beach Drive

I'm not sure if this will become a regular series of posts here at Beach Drive Blog, butt we had to share this facinating toilet located in a home along Beach Drive.
Out of T.P.? No problems…the Toto Washlet 300 will cleanse and pamper with many features to choose from…and the heated seat is a warm welcome on a chilly Seattle day.
