Redfin recently did a comparison of what a couple of condos on Beach Drive sold for…if you would like to read more, click here.
I’m not sure what side of the street the units are on (some address numbers are odd and others are even).
Team Up with Tully’s for JP and Children’s Hospital
June 12, 2007 by Leave a Comment
On Tuesday, June 19, 2007…all day long…Tully’s will donate 20% of all store revenue to support the JP Patches statue fund and Children’s Hospital.
Please support your local clown and Puget Sound treasure. We have Tully’s conveniently on Alki and Fauntleroy in West Seattle.
Or…you can purchase a Patches Pal Paver and have your name along side 
this beautiful statue to be located in Fremont. The statue will have JP and long time friend, Gertrude standing next to ICU2 TV. The TV will have a slot to accept donations for Children’s Hospital and any surplus funds raised to build the statue will also benefit Children’s.
These photos are from the unveiling of the future statue that took place earlier this year during February in Fremont.
My husband surprised me the following month when JP Patches appeared at my 
birthday party! Yes…obviously, I’m a Patches Pal. And I (along with many) adore JP. I remember watching him on KIRO in the wee hours of the morning before school and getting to watch him again after school. I always looked forward to seeing him. JP Patches show aired from 1958 to 1981 entertaining and teaching many of us Puget Sound Natives in our younger days.
Don’t be a Gorrrssssst…support JP! Besides…your donations are tax deductible.

I was really after a partial rainbow that appears to be over the Fauntleroy Ferry… the photo did not turn out as I had hoped…this one is from the sunset tonight.
Sweet dreams.

Thanks to West Seattle blog for posting this on their blog about a deadly outbreak impacting local birds from tainted feeders.
Seattle Dog Parks
June 6, 2007 by Leave a Comment
A few months ago, a BDB reader inquired about local Dog Parks…I was just reading a few blogs over at Citizen Rain and came across this article from Green Spaces Real Estate:
"Westcrest Dog Park in West Seattle (located north of SW Roxbury on 8th Avenue SW). Westcrest is of particular interest…because it has only the 2nd "small and shy dog area" designated for small – and/or shy – dogs…."
I know…it’s not Lincoln Park. I’m not sure if Westcrest was mentioned before…just thought I would share it with you.

I thought I was pretty lucky yesterday when I spied four heron together. Unfortunately, I could only capture 3 in my camera lens…you’ll have to trust me the solo fellow was standing by the other 3 birds.
You can imagine my surprise when today, I discovered a two-headed bald eagle off of Emma Schmitz Viewpoint.
Okay…I don’t want anyone squawking at me. It is not a two headed eagle but it was quite a site. This pair of baldies managed to draw a few onlookers (besides me) from the park.
