Topic: Found Car Key-39th & Kenyon
Hello West Seattle,
Found Keys — ***Updated location where found.***
While out walking our dog Friday night July 4, my husband found a car key on the road/sidewalk in the vicinity of 39th Ave SW and SW Kenyon St. The car key was on a ring with a leather emblem hanging off it, in the shape of an identifiable insect. If you recently lost your car key in that area, please reach out. I’m not in Seattle right now, but I will get him the message – he has the key, in Gatewood, West Seattle. For verifiability and security purposes, first describe accurately the make of the car key as well as the leather insect. Thanks.

(Crossposted on Nextdoor)Hello,
I live at 53rd and Admiral. Last night my family was awoken by a large explosion sound around 2.30 AM. It was so loud that my 8 yr old son said he bed was shaking. It was way louder than a car crash, firework, or gunshot. It sounded like a bomb. Did anyone else hear it?
Thanks!
Found a Bank of America bank bag out front of my house on Admiral Way this morning. Empty except two zip lock bag inside with what appear to be names of food servers on them. Claim by telling me the names on the zip lock bags, or what is written on the back of the bag.
Topic: Alaska Marine LIne Cranes
Anybody have info on where two of the four green/yellow cranes on the north side of the 1st Ave S bridge went? I noticed the cranes missing a few months ago. I haven’t been able to track it down.
The weather is perfect for gardening, composting too. Compost turns your kitchen scraps and yard waste into valuable living soil. Mature compost is full of beneficial microorganisms and mycelium. And there’s no better way than adding red wiggler worms!
Mature compost is like beer yeast, kombucha SCOBY, or sourdough starter. It speeds up the creation of valuable soil.
For $20 you get a 32 oz takeout container full of worms, worm eggs, and compost starter.

Hello, a few days ago, two brown chickens started roosting in my yard.
Unfortunately, a raccoon got to one of them the other night. I’ve contacted local shelters but they won’t help trap or take her in. Rooster Haus does not have space for this one either.
Is anyone missing a chicken? Is anyone able to capture and re-home her?

Topic: Domestic help wanted in Alki
Overwhelmed working dad seeks help with household chores. The home is ~2.5k sqft , 3 adults and 1 child. The other 2 adults are disabled and not always able to contribute meaningfully to certain chores. Would love to find someone in Alki/Admiral area to help with regular cleaning and organizing. Kitchen, bathrooms, laundry, dusting, toys, etc.
Thinking maybe 8 hours per week $30 per hour. Happy to negotiate those and feel it out.
You can reach me at landry.dugan@gmail.comClearly King County Metro is unwilling to give us the service we want in the Admiral District. I ask everyone in the Admiral District who wants all-day 56/57 to go on a peaceful protest. We are sick of waiting for 56/57 service only for it to be reduced further!!! I’m personally very angry with King County for this. They know how much we want more service in the Admiral District! I think they’re going to need more pressure to actually address it anytime soon. Otherwise we’ll likely be waiting at least until 2032 for the light rail extension to be complete.
I know there are plans to redirect the H Line into the Admiral District, but that’s too far into the future. We need more direct service before then!
This is the March 2025 service change. It was an outrage to cut another 56. I know so many of you were unhappy about it. I think if we protest, they might actually comply to us.
Two West Seattle routes lose trips, one gains trips for Metro’s next service change March 29
Whatever you do, DO NOT MAKE A HARSH REPLY! I will be very unhappy if you do that, especially if you’re arguing against this!
