Bike Stolen from Secure Condo on Beach Drive

September 4, 2013 by Leave a Comment

This is from  the West Seattle Blog:

My beautiful blue/black carbon Lemond Zurich T- 04 woman’s road bike was stolen from a secure condo garage along Beach Drive, where it hung bolted and locked on a concrete wall. Serial #WL3149448, registered with the police on 1/14/2005. Blue Bontrager tires, Terry gel saddle, lights, bag, pump, U lock, etc. I rode hundreds of miles in events like Cycle Oregon and loved this bike. It fit me like a glove. Please watch out for it and tell your friends to do the same. Thanks!

Please keep you eyes out for Sue’s bike which was stolen 3 weeks ago.

NWS issues a Flood Watch for tomorrow afternoon

September 4, 2013 by Leave a Comment

The National Weather Service has issued a Flood Watch for Western Washington beginning tomorrow afternoon through Friday.

Potential flooding is anticipated to occur with the heavy rains from the possible thunderstorms (which are also in the forecast for tonight).  West Seattle Blog makes a great suggestion to check gutters and drains now to make sure they’re clear before the storm arrives.

This morning our guard cat, Rocko, spied a Blue Heron scoping out our neighbors home.

The Heron looks like he’s wondering what’s being served for breakfast. There is actually a second heron on the beach below.
