These signs are posted along Beach Drive for a missing dog. Please contact the owner if you find him and give us an update.
Just found out today that sometime last week, someone broke into a neighbors truck around just south of Jacobsen on Beach Drive. The vandal jammed the door lock and came up empty handed since there were no valuables in the vehicle to take.
This from West Seattle Blog's Twitter:
caller says up to 20 whales headed south from Point No Point – so maybe they'll be seen off WS. (before dark? maybe?)
By the way if you follow West Seattle Blog via Twitter, I invite you to follow me, too!
From Beach Drive neighbor, Ron Sterling:
…Attached is the latest garden art… Melvin Ducky and the Quacktones wish all a wonderful V-Day — "All we are saying is 'Give Love a Chance.'"
I received theses tip from Beach Drive Neighbors:
Around the corner of Jacobsen and Beach Drive, a few police officers stopped by her house this afternoon [2/12] and asked if she had noticed anyone "casing" their house or had there been any unusual activity near her house. She had just woke from a nap and was surprised to see them but alert enough to tell them that she did have an unusual experience last night [2/11]. A couple young men came to her door at 7pm selling windows, when she said she was not interested they asked for cookies, when she said she had none they asked for a glass of water, she closed the door and got them a water cup to go. When she returned with the cup one man was there and the other was not…
another neighbor reports that:
they stopped by his house as well and clearly were not window sales people.
Just a reminder that we need to look out for each other. If you notice anything suspicious, call 9-1-1.
A big thanks to the neighbor who notified me of this activity.
Well at least it's just a dusting along Beach Drive…it certainly should not be enough snow to delay our scheduled garbage pick up!
Worse case scenario, you may some ice on your windshields to contend with this morning.
We still have snow in the forecast for Seattle for tonight and tomorrow morning.
Just south of Jacobsen on Beach Drive, the road is being jack-hammerred in order to repair a pipeline from a home. I'm told the work should be complete today.
I did not feel the earth quake at 5:20 this morning. But the 4.5 magnitude located by Kingston was enough to wake up my husband (who then woke me up).
Did this morning's quake wake you?
