Beach Walk and Treasure Hunt
April 18, 2007 by Leave a Comment
I was asked from Stephanie at People for Puget Sound to post an upcoming event for BDB readers. On Sunday, April 22, 2007 from 1:30 – 4:00, you can go on a low tide beach walk along Beach Drive.
Kids are encouraged to join in the fun by bringing trash bags to pick up litter which they can then create recycled art and win prizes!
This event begins at Charles Richey Sr. Viewpoint (Constellation Park) 63rd Ave SW and Beach Drive SW.
Space is limited for this event, please RSVP. What a great way to celebrate Earth Day.
Beach Drive Blog’s 100th Post
April 10, 2007 by 1 Comment
Can you believe it? This is the 100th Post on Beach Drive Blog!
What a perfect time to reflect on BDB favorites:
Of course I’ll always be sentimental about the very first post for Beach Drive Blog from January 25, 2007.
We currently have 23 subscribers and receive well over 100 views from readers a day (this blog is not submitted to search engines…it’s neighbors telling neighbors)! We’ve been viewed almost 4000 times. And we have other big time Seattle blogs giving us nods. Not too shabby for a blog created for a neighborhood along a street!
The Neighborhood Directory could use some more participation…this is elective and is private (you need to contact me for the login/password) to protect you from spammers and such.
We have helped in reuniting a couple pets with their owners. And we are posting various community messages that are provided to us.
I am most excited that we now have more neighbors coming on to participate in contributing articles and new posts to Beach Drive Blog. More and more readers are adding their valuable comments to posts which provides a great dimension to the blog.
Just today, an event calendar was added to the left side of the page. I’m still tinkering around with it…and my goal is to have the community events mentioned on this blog included in that event calendar.
Thank you for your positive feed back and support. It will be fun to watch how Beach Drive Blog continues to develop…we’re still pretty young! I have really enjoyed BDB and meeting more of my neighbors.
What would you like to see with our neighborhood blog?
Movin’ On Up

This tree house is just a few blocks from Beach Drive and Alki. We’ll have to show "after photos" when they’re all done. I’m assuming they’re not done yet…but who knows…maybe they’re going to park underneath or this is being done as an proactive measure against the rising waters of global warming?
Lost Bird
April 1, 2007 by Leave a Comment
A few weeks ago, we found this lovely bird in front of Emma Schmitz Memorial View Point.
Right away, we could tell he was not like the rest of the flock he was swimming with. My husband decided to rescue him. The bird was not afraid and seems very comfortable with humans. He must be someone’s pet.
This creature has been making our neighbors a bit uncomfortable as he just stares constantly without flinching, or even blinking!
We noticed the bird has not been eating much (if anything at all) and doesn’t want to 
leave his new perch.
Are you missing this fowl? He’s large (about the size of a Canadian Goose), appears to be hollow and perhaps plastic.
We would love to return this beautiful bird to it’s rightful owner.
Art at Joe’s

In a previous post, I mentioned that at Endolyne Joe’s has an art exhibit featuring mask created by Explorer West students.
The mask are for sale. I bought this one (photo below). Titled, Slip Knot.
Would you like to promote what’s going on with your local school? Don’t be shy…BDB is always looking for new contributors! Send me an email and make my day. 🙂
