Alki, By and By

  • an eagle on the beach
  • a pair of Rollerblades that fit tight
  • a sign post bent into the shape of the front end of a pickup
  • a “Private Beach Keep Off” sign
  • a green cap
  • a yellow polo shirt with the words “I Know Massage” printed on its back
  • half a dozen monkey puzzle trees
  • two radio controlled gliders, roughly the shape and color of seagulls
  • a latter day addition to a historical marker acknowledging the names of those who are only referred to as “and wife” on the original monument

  1. Yo, Jeff, really like the new site. Next time you’ve a mind to stroll Alki, give me a call – I can bike or bus or drive down there in a really short time. I actually hang out at the Alki Bakery on dreary mornings, love to watch the fog and rain roll into Elliott Bay while sitting comfortably inside the cafe. cheers – see you around.
