Are the Brandts here?

If so, it’s a true sign of Spring in my book.Dsc_0134

This photo is from yesterday in front of Emma Schmitz Memorial View Point.   They were closer in today and just when I was getting my camera, they flew north a bit (photo below)…and I discovered why.

This morning’s sunrise just makes me think of strawberry ice cream. 

Custom Wine Wall Racks

We stumbled upon David Lisch, Damascus & Knife Maker, who has created custom wall mounted wine racks for our cellar.   We’re so pleased, we thought we’d share his work with you.   David also crafts gates, railings…his talent is unlimited.  His foundary is located directly under the West Seattle Bridge and the Viaduct at 3600 E. Marginal Way South, Studio 3, Seattle.  Be sure to tell him Beach Drive Blog sent you!

Weather Watch Park

Img_4950 Weather Watch Park is located across the street from LaRustic Restaurant at 4035 Beach Drive SW.

The artwork was contributed by Lezlie Jane who also helped with many other "street ends" parks along Beach Drive.  In addition to the art, the park has a nice beach area loaded with drift wood that’s great to sit on or just admire and nice beach.

Note:  I thought I published this post last year and just realized it’s been sitting as a "draft".   Thanks to Lezlie Jane and her work crew earlier this week, I made this discovery.

Clean Up at Weather Watch Park

A group of volunteers are just finishing up cleaning and much needed weeding at Weather Watch Park along Beach Drive.   One volunteer is no other than Lezlie Jane, the artist who contributed a great deal to many of our West Seattle Parks, including Weather Watch Park

Lezlie and I have exchanged contact info so that she can contact us the next time they plan a work party so more can join in on the fun.
