BLUE ANGELS: Assuming the weather cooperates, final day for the Seafair Airshow, which is performed for a crowd at Lake Washington, but you will usually get a few glimpses of the Blue Angels from West Seattle. They fly at 3:30 pm again today (which usually means commercial air traffic is diverted over south WS), taking off from, and landing at, Boeing Field just east of here.

SIP & SCULPT AT MR. B’S: 6-8 pm, monthly art event at Mr. B’s Mead Center (9444 Delridge Way SW).

    Beautiful seal photo.   A great reminder that it is Harbor Seal pupping season.  Please be aware & careful on the shore and give mom & pups room & time to rest.   Be especially careful with dogs on the beach – make sure wild animals have their opportunity to live here!

      Well said! And let us never forget that this land is their home and us humans are mere visitors when we roam into their territory. They have always been here first. We are just fortunate enough to be blessed to witness them living their lives. Let’s be respectful guest and give them privacy.
