Hello,

My name is Aidan Tower, I come from a family of artists and grew up doing all I could to help my mother with her interior design showroom. Most of my career has been working for Amazon and Microsoft developing internal processes and while also focusing on continuous improvement. Currently I find myself yearning to be back working closely with art. I believe I have all the tools to be a valued member of the team.

I would love a chance to come in and introduce myself and see how our goals align. Thank you for your time and have a great day!

Hi, I used a better roofing company 26 years ago and got a 30 year roof. They came out a couple years ago and confirmed that it was my chimney that was leaking not my roof. They came very quickly.
If you have a 30 year roof guarantee from them, you should just go back to them. They’ll do your roof for free if it’s really leaking.

There is a lost key fob at the top of the stairs on the north side end of the park (stairs nearest to the edge of the park). I put it on top of the pole in hopes its person comes back for it.

Seaside Grill on Alki is offering a FREE lunch or dinner on your birthday. Not a bad deal.

Planning a 1st birthday is exciting, but the entertainment quotes around West Seattle can definitely add up fast. A good option to check out is Wowzers. They’re a local Seattle-based party entertainment company that offers face painting along with other kids’ party services, and their rates are generally more reasonable compared to some of the premium event vendors in the area.

What stands out is that they’re used to working birthday parties specifically (not just big corporate events), so they can usually tailor the time and package to fit a smaller gathering. For a first birthday, simple, colorful designs for toddlers and older siblings tend to be perfect and quicker, which helps keep costs down while still giving kids something fun and memorable.

It may be worth reaching out to see if they have availability for October 21 and asking about a 2-hour setup for a backyard-style party in West Seattle. Sometimes booking directly and explaining the size of the party can help get a more budget-friendly option.

While I had my Dodge truck I used Tom’s Automotive. They weren’t real cheap but fixed any issues I had when I brought it in and were on time and most importantly I never had to take it back as work was done right the first time.

I don’t really have an answer for you, but I would recommend that you take some pics, or draw a floor plan of what’s existing, and post it with your question on Threads or Reddit. That’s one of my favorite types of posts, folks will use AI to draw your bathroom, with credible options, or leave very funny answers that are just pure entertainment. Back to your question, it depends on where the plumbing and doors/windows are.

Recently encountered someone using one of those for-hire e-scooters on the sidewalk along California Ave. And by encountered, I specifically mean that the rider responded to my muttering, “Not supposed to be riding on the sidewalk” with a series of swears and shouting look-backs about how he wasn’t going to ride along the road, as dictated by the law. Good times!

Hi – are you an older man in blue who decided to stop your ride on Alki around noon today to verbally assault a woman and her daughter walking a Great Dane? I’m assuming that you wouldn’t have felt the same need to belittle us in public if we were men.

I hope a seagull pooped on you during your ride.

Found these keys on the concrete Safe Street barriers at Alki Ave SW and 64th PL SW this morning, Feb 6. Somewhat stuck together, might be old enough that someone has replaced them, but they won’t have to worry that they were stolen. I have taken them home, can return if someone can identify them.

Hi all,
Just wanted to let everyone know that three employees of O’Neill Plumbing were sprayed with bear mace when two men attempted to steal tools out of the back of their trucks. When the men were confronted, they drove away at first, made a U turn, came back and assaulted the three employees. they sprayed the three employees directly in the face with Bear Mace and made threats against the employee’s lives stating, “We will come back and kill you!” the 2 men were driving a light gold Toyota Camry LE 4-door early 200’s model, regular wheels and non-tinted windows. a light skinned heavy set male was driving the car and a darker skinned heavy-set male was taking tools and equipment out of the O’Neill truck. The car had Missouri plates that were covered with a fake paper license plate. Police are looking for them so if you see a car fitting this description, please call police.

tradesmen, please take precautions while at job sites, these guys used a Sawzall to hack the pad lock on the back of the truck.

I have a Merlin app that can identify birds by their call. A few days ago it picked up on an American Barn Owl. I googled and found that someone had a sighting in Schmitz park in 2020. I also see a comment in forum about an 8 year old getting scratched in Lincoln Park.
It was in the morning when my app heard it. I do feed the birds so, I have a lot of birds and squirrels.
I guess the Barn owl eat small rodents but also can die if people try to exterminate rats with poison.

I live down by Delridge on Brandon and feed the birds. Kind of curious if others have seen one. Thanks. JRH
