Although we have not seen these moody skies for awhile, they no doubt will be back sooner than I realize. Any of you long time readers can attest I frequently share the wonders of West Seattle, but what some of you may not realize is what killer views you can see of the city from here. Standing on the shores of Alki Beach you can see the Space Needle, Olympic Sculpture Park, Seattle waterfront, Magnolia and all the many ferries, barges, kayaks and small water crafts going to and fro.
