West Seattle Wednesday: Double pickup; HP party; ‘Tuna’…

(Last Friday’s rainbow – photo by G. Sherwood)
If you missed trash/recycling last Wednesday (the second of 2 days with no city pickup because of the snow/ice), put out double today – though note that they’re not guaranteeing recycling … In lieu of business meetings, Highland Park Action Committee and Highland Park Improvement Club are combining it all into a Holiday Potluck Party tonight at HPIC (12th/Holden), 7 pm … Speaking of holidays – now that it’s December, the WSB West Seattle Holidays page is jumping – tonight, Tibbetts United Methodist Church (WSB sponsor) has its annual Advent Program and Hobby Table, 7 pm (3940 41st SW) … As previewed here last night, “A Tuna Christmas” opens at ArtsWest (WSB sponsor), 7:30 pm … Also in The Junction tonight, Bin 41 presents a tasting with two Washington winemakers, 5:30 pm-7 pm … And The Kenney is hosting a free book reading and signing with Tony Vivolo, author of “Growing Up in New York’s Italian South Village,” 6 pm (7125 Fauntleroy Way SW) … More on the calendar!

So far, they have not picked up our double load of recycling in the Arbor Heights area.

I find this ironic since they want us, at some point, to do away with garbage and do only yard/food waste and recycling – so in theory, more recycling is sitting around waiting to be picked up than trash or yard waste right now.

Hmmm…..

I have to say, I am not impressed by the coordination between the City of Seattle and Waste Management. Each website has different information. WM says NO make up recycling or they will call and notify customers, City
s site says there will be an ATTEMPT to make up the service. I know its just recycling, not a major issue, but annoys me that they can’t get on the same page…

Then you have to play the “should I or shouldn’t I leave it at the curb” for another week and risk having it knocked over and scattered all over the street!

Sorry, comment time is over.
