Thanks to Chas Redmond for that photo of a cake donated by Bakery Nouveau (procured by Grace Bennett) for the Camp Long dessert auction Saturday night and auctioned off for the top price of the night, $520. More photos Chas sent from that event, plus other West Seattle weekend pix, straight ahead:

That’s Camp Long’s environmental-education director Sheila Brown welcoming the crowd of more than 80 to the auction that netted more than $2,000; below, Tom Rawson and his musicians entertained the auction attendees after the dessert bidding:

Next, many of the vehicles parked outside South Seattle Community College today, like this Red Cross satellite-uplink truck, hinted at what was going on inside throughout the weekend:

SSCC hosted Communications Academy ’08; thanks to Neil for the reminder, and thanks to Cindi Barker for reporting that two space travelers were on hand Saturday — Charles Simonyi, who flew to the International Space Station last year, and former astronaut Bonnie Dunbar, who now runs the Museum of Flight.

Next — wouldn’t be the end of a weekend without a beach photo, would it?

Thanks to Mac for that shot from Constellation Park south of Alki Point.
