West Seattle Wednesday: Calendar highlights for today/tonight

Beautiful scenes of fog on the water this morning – thanks to Brian for sharing the image above and Susana for sending the image below:

Meantime, this is shaping up as another very busy news day, so here’s a very quick look at highlights from the WSB West Seattle Event Calendar (where as always you will find even more listings for the day/night – and weeks/months – ahead):

BENEFIT LEMONADE/COOKIE STAND: Amanda shares this message from the Community School of West Seattle (but note the school is NOT the site of the sale – the address is below):

Our wonderful friend Ian in the Blake classroom is having a lemonade and cookie stand. All the proceeds raised go to help Boyer Children’s Clinic where Ian has spent a LOT of time! PLEASE stop by and support his efforts, I am sure the lemonade will be delicious

Hmmmmmm….instead of heading out to Lee’s Produce around noon, as I had planned, it looks like I’ll have to head out around 3:00 or so, and take a little detour!

I went to shadowland and had a drink. Not very neighborly of me, but hey, the bartender was awesome!

Yay, I was hoping someone would capture a few shots of the fog and post them. Quite a sight. Thank you!

I am sure the lemonade will be delicious

Yes, the lemonade was delicious! And so was the cookie!

Apparently it was Amanda that I saw when I stopped by Ian’s stand. I mentioned that I found out about it from WSB, and Ian’s Mom was surprised of the notice. Amanda then told her that she had e-mailed the info to WSB.

Thanks Ian! I hope you raised a lot of money, and thanks to Amanda and WSB for getting word out!

Mike! I had no idea that you are the famous miws! So nice to see you at the stand, and put a face with all the awesomeness you are always spreading around here :)
