Happy HOLLY-days

One neighbors major pruning can be another neighbors holiday arrangement.   The Burkholders, owners of Screamer Hats (we could all wear a Screamer Hat today–brrrr) say the neighbors are welcome to prune some holly from their downed holly tree.    You’ll find this tree near the south end of Emma Schmitz Memorial Viewpoint.

Happy Thanksgiving to your family from ours!

Wow…Free Light Bulbs too!

Free energy saving light bulbs while available at Admiral Metropolitan Market along with the re-usable grocery bags (which require a purchase of $50 or more which hard to do at Met Market).   Published live from my Treo.

Mayor at Metropolitan Market

With camera crew in tow. Valet parking is available today at Admiral Metropolitan Market to accommodate the crescendo of holiday shoppers.

US Army Corps of Engineers in Puget Sound

I’m not exactly sure what the US Army Corps of Engineers is doing in the Puget Sound right now (just south of Emma Schmitz Memorial View Point)…but it makes for some interesting photos.

Check out Beach Drive.

EarthCorps, Seattle Parks and Recreation, MudUp and the Green Seattle Partnership are working together to keep Mee Kwa Mooks "happy and healthy" along with the Friends of Mee Kwa Mooks.

Thank you to all of the those dedicated individuals volunteering in our Seattle weather to keep our parks enjoyable.
