Beach Drive dog finds “Spirit Log”
October 19, 2012 by 1 Comment
Found this great carving while walking along the waterfront path at Lincoln Park. Scupper Jr’s natural pull to the beach (which of course, I fully resist) landed us here…
Disclaimer: Said dog never set a paw on highly enforced beach or artwork/graffiti depending on who’s side you’re on per WSB post.
While this particular carving has been fully documented on West Seattle Blog, a long time resident of Beach Drive informed me that as recent as 3 or 4 years ago he’s has seen several of what he calls “spirit logs” wash up on our local beaches north of Lincoln Park. He went on to say that he…
“heard there were many but disapeared over time. People,sand and tide moved them.”
A quick Google search uncovered another driftwood carving found near the water in Port Townsend…

I’m squarely in the camp of welcoming these native style carvings onto our beaches. Reminds me of the native heritage of the land we now call home!

Possible attempted break-in on Beach Drive
October 17, 2012 by Leave a Comment
We just received this email from a neighbor around the 4600 block of Beach Drive:
“yesterday I noticed that there was a gouge mark and a missing chunk off my sliding glass door frame, next to the latch in the back of my house. It looks like someone tried to pry open my back slider…. I also noticed a cigarette butt in my side flower bed…too far away from the street to be a coincidence. Someone had to have been between our two houses smoking…”
This Beach Drive neighbor has notified the police.
