West Seattle Friday: Big Band Dinner, Kenyon Hall vaudeville…

Thanks to Kim Schwarzkopf for sharing her video of a two-part wildlife sighting near Lincoln Park … first, you’ll see aerial action … then, watch a spirited sea lion … she’s edited with a soundtrack too. Now, on with today’s preview from the WSB West Seattle Events calendar:

    To Kim S. Thanks for a great video this morning….instead of mulling over the tail end of my taxes, I got to enjoy the feeling of being out in the Sound in my kayak enjoying nature and all it’s glory.

Sorry, comment time is over.
