‘Twas the weekend after Thanksgiving

… and all through the town/nothing much was scheduled/’cause few were around.

Well, it’s not that slow, but close (the really good stuff is next weekend, including the 2nd annual West Seattle Tree Lighting). Keep in mind that the community centers are closed, the Senior Center’s closed, but stores are open, so it’s a great weekend to start shopping! (We’ll post some recommendations soon for only-in-WS gifts.) Aside from that, here’s a few weekend events: Santa’s arriving @ Westwood Village at noon Saturday … the Holy Rosary Tree Lot opens Saturday (we’ll be scoping out others this weekend too) … on Sunday, it’s one of the final four West Seattle Farmers’ Market days of the year … ongoing art exhibits include “Visual Ensembles” @ ArtsWest, Alexis St. John’s retrospective @ T(ea) Gallery, and “Art for the People” by Chad Stieg @ Revolution Coffee & Art.

Does anyone know if the Holy Rosary Christmas tree sale takes credit cards?

Last few times we bought trees there, they did, so I’d bet they do. Didn’t see your question till after we made our investigative runs today but will drop in tomorrow to have a look. (When we drove by there around midday today, Saturday, they were still finishing the framework for the lot.) — WSB

They do take credit cards and have some great trees! Love the nets they have to put around them. So easy to transport! Ahhh, the smell of a fresh tree! Nothing better! Snow on them this morning too!

Sorry, comment time is over.
