FIRST, TRAFFIC ALERTS: The I-90 floating bridge will close one last time, 12:55 pm-2:45 pm for the Blue Angels‘ final Seafair performance. And from SDOT, West Seattle alerts continue – at 1st Ave S/Olson Place SW, 8:30 am-9 pm work is scheduled for traffic-signal upgrades.

CLEANUP TIME! Another Morgan Junction-area community cleanup organized by Jill Boone:

Bring yourselves, Bring your young ones, Bring your teens …. Help clean up Morgan Junction! Once again, we are doing our litter cleanup and your help is needed.

Sunday, August 5 from 9:30 – 11:00. Meet at the ATM by the Shell Station and Domino’s.

Bags, litter grabbers, safety vests and buckets for the kids are provided. I have a few kid vests and grabbers too. Bring your own gloves if you want them! … We will handle the bus stops and the corners of Fauntleroy and California and up to C&P and back and up to the UU and back if we have enough folks. Pups who are well behaved and on leash are welcome.
