Holiday Lights on a Nautical Beach Drive Home

Dsc_0075

Not getting your fill of Christmas lights?

West Seattle Blog has an interactive map posted where you can see the best and brightest West Seattle homes.   Why am I not surprised?

I hope I didn’t creep you out!

Last night, my husband and I were driving around Beach Drive to take some photos of festive homes decorated for the holidays to post here at BDB.   I did notice one home where a couple was viewing me snapping shots from the street.  It honestly didn’t dawn on me how creepy this could feel.   Yuck!   Please forgive me if I creeped you out…I’m not the WS Peeper…just the Beach Drive Blogger.

The Cats Out of the Bag: WHO is the West Seattle Blog

The infamous West Seattle Blog is coming out of the closet….okay…this has nothing to do with the kind of "coming out" you may be thinking of.   They have finally "dropped the veil" and now have a photo and bio on their "About Us" page.   (DO NOT CLICK THIS IF YOU DON’T WANT TO KNOW WHO THE FINE FOLKS BEHIND WSB REALLY ARE…sorry for exposing Patrick…however, you’ve probably seen him videoing around various West Seattle events).

I actually met Patrick at the KOMO-4 Bloggers Meet-Up during the summer.  He presented himself as a friend of WSB…but as a "friend only".   He talked about another blog he writes at that time.   I still had a sneaky suspicion that he was more than a WSB friend.   Patrick had searched me out of the group that was there just to tell me that "West Seattle Blog says hi".    And I was honored.

I had toyed with posting Patrick’s photo from the KOMO event and decided not to.  I wanted to respect the privacy of WSB.    Anyhow…now that the cats out of the bag, here’s our photo!

I knew it!   It was also confirmed when I started advertising on West Seattle Blog and received my emails from "Patrick the Sales Guy".   

Too funny…I love it!   Even though the mystery of "who" is gone…I still look forward to all the posts at West Seattle Blog.  How do they do it?

Skipping Duck

I’m not going to even try guessing what type of duck this is.   I caught it snacking on a fish; which was devoured before I could photo it.

Just Ducky for the Holidays

Deckedoutduckiesfortheholiday

"The Beach Drive Duckies are decked out for the holidays. The devil duckies have transformed into mama’s helpers! The Beach Drive Duckies have been around since 2004 and just keep getting cuter every year".

Thanks to neighbor, Ron Sterling for sharing his holiday photos…more to come! 

Do you have a photo of your home decked out for the Season?  Send me a photo and I’ll post it on Beach Drive Blog.  I’m committed to posting one holiday photo of Beach Drive each day in December…and I need your help!
