    Was along the sidewalk and dared closer to the promenade along the seawall this morning. Enough of the seawall left above the water level to give opportunity for some neat wave-crashes! Fun weather and Alki experience.
    On the other hand, I hope the anticipated wind/water later today does not damage the structures or landscaping.
