Based upon what WSB posted about the Spokane Viaduct work to start next month:
…”Consultants who attended last night’s SWDC meeting on behalf of the city said some of the first work you’ll see will be in August, when a water main will be replaced on a section of lower Spokane Street; the first longterm closure is scheduled to be eastbound Spokane, for about a year and a half starting in fall.”
Detour will be
Eastbound traffic, north via East Marginal Way to Hanford, then to 1st Ave. S to Lander to cross the tracks.
This means traffic will be HEAVY from Spokane to Lander, the major bike cross getting from West Seattle to the northbound bike lane on the east side of Alaskan. Those heading north from south of Spokane St will likely encounter much heavier traffic.

I’ve really come to use the link above (‘More’ tab) for CL since it only shows our area. Also search Freecycle now using ‘West Sea’ to narrow that down if I’m in a hurry.

WSBKeymasterWe’ll e-mail those who e-mailed us but we’re postponing this till later in the year – turns out there are two event conflicts on 7/10 plus we need to focus on the July 11-13 Street Fair (we’ll see you at the Info Booth!) and the July 19 parade (if you volunteer, you’re invited to join the informal marching unit we’re helping coordinate:

WSBKeymasterWe also added the city’s advisory about pet safety during the holiday to our 4th of July page:
https://westseattleblog.com/blog/?page_id=8292
That page also has fireworks laws, plus the locations of all fireworks displays (legal) around the region, including the ones before and after the holiday.

We have been once. I believe it was the Sicilian Pizza we tried – very very spicy!!!

WSBKeymasterActually what you read in the paper is a story that we broke here on WSB a week and a half ago.
https://westseattleblog.com/blog/?p=8290
It is also linked from our 4th of July page for easy reference.

As for when it happened last, that’s the same thing the police told us. However, having lived in WS for 17 years now, I recall many previous traffic shutdowns — didn’t get to see the situation the past few years because I had to work at the TV station producing fireworks broadcasts for three years, then last year we were out of state on the 4th, but this year we will be all over WS covering what’s happening by day and night.

GenHillOneParticipanthmmm…I read this differently – was the painting ON the wall? I envisioned somone placing a large plate glass mirror over the whole thing and you found the painting when removing the mirror.
If that is the case, maybe you could look up your home’s history here and see if you find a connection around that time:

SueParticipantJT, if you go back and read those comments about the tapping, I don’t think anyone was jumping all over you, as much as we all simply had different opinions. https://westseattleblog.com/blog/?p=5589 I’m an alternative practitioner and patient and I am the last person to tell you my way is the only way. I use both allopathic and alternative therapies, often concurrently. It works for me. Your mileage may vary. I am grateful that we all have such different choices for care, so that we can all work within our comfort zone.
And Socl, the “tapping” was referring to Emotional Freedom Technique or “EFT” – you can get more info on it at http://www.emofree.com
hopeyParticipantI think there are a number of us on this forum who have had good (and consistent!) experiences. alkisun, did you see the comments posted by the owner Kathaleen in this thread?

Perhaps if you have another bad experience you could ask for her directly.

WSBKeymasterJustin posted in the comments thread on our post from this afternoon but got caught in the spam filter, where I just found him almost four hours later. Same thing happened with Zippy’s opening – lots of people showed up, they ran out of stuff. Having never opened a food-service business, I have to say, do you overproduce or underproduce for day 1 … how do you make that decision?
They put together the business within a few months of making the decision. Probably a low-risk venture, given the location and the fact they both have other careers. Right before interviewing Justin and Ann on Wednesday afternoon, I interviewed Sean and Sofia Goff, who are putting together Cafe Revo, something they’ve dreamed of for at least 15 years … big operation, big plan, bigger business, probably a whole different situation. (That story will appear on WSB over the weekend.)
Anyway, Justin’s comment also includes which flavors he’s making next :)

Patrick and Junior Member went late this afternoon (I had just popped in at 12:15 for quick photos/video). Junior Member also tried the butter pecan. P tried the berry cinnamon paleta. Good reviews from them. – TR

We’ve used her services since we’ve been here and recommended her to everyone! She and her team do all the usual stuff excepetionally well AND they have often gone above and beyond what we could possibly expect.

I tried them last week. Outstanding. Great customer service. I had a problem with paying 20 bucks for 2 crepes and 2 coffees though. It’s going to have to be a special treat thing if at all.
