Seen on shore: Alki at low tide; Canada goose family revisited

Thanks to Mary T. and David Sheely for sharing that photo from this afternoon’s low tide at Alki; the tide will be just as low tomorrow right before 2 pm, but then we won’t see tides this low till late May. Down the shore a ways, David Hutchinson checked back with some members of Harbor Avenue’s semi-celebrity Canada goose family:

Bonus — just as we were getting ready to hit “publish,” Alma sent us a photo of tonight’s sunset:

    Where was that top photo taken? What are those ruins from?

    They are most likely the old pilings from an amusement park that was in existence from 1907-1913, named Luna Park. There is a restaurant a couple miles south of that area now, also named Luna Park.

    So that is the ruins of luna park? I’ve always wondered where they are.

    I know the history of it but always wanted to see the ruins. It’s a history that casts a glow of sorts over what west seattle could have been.

Sorry, comment time is over.
