The weather’s supposed to get better – for a while – at some point today. Really! (And remember, we have a page for that.) Here are today’s highlights, indoors and out, from the WSB West Seattle Events calendar:

ELECTRONICS – AND MORE – RECYCLING EVENT: Previous editions of the Fauntleroy Church Green Committee’s Recycle Roundup have kept tons and tons of stuff out of landfills. 1 Green Planet will be there 9 am-3 pm today; here’s what they’ll accept. (9131 California SW, but you can’t get there from the rest of California – head west on Barton from 35th, or uphill on Wildwood from the ferry dock)

MARKET DAY! Your weekly chance to shop the year-round West Seattle Farmers’ Market, 10 am – 2 pm, The Junction (44th/Alaska). Market managers’ bulletin for today: “Welcome Back Anderson Acres – One of our pioneering orchards with specialty apples and if we’re lucky..RAW walnuts!”

GAME DAY: Second gathering for the new “European strategy board game” group meets at Uptown Espresso in The Junction, 1 pm – read this story for details, contact info, and a group to join online – first meeting drew 18 people!
