    What am I missing? A picture of mail trucks relates to this story how?

      We always include a “photo of the day” with the daily preview. Doesn’t usually have anything to do with the events listed below it. Just a slice of life. – TR

    Cool. I didn’t realize that and thought maybe it was part of the crime story! Happy it wasn’t.

    Sure not a highlight of West Seattle picture. Ulgy, dirty side of a building.
    There are lots of great things to use for photo of the day here in the West Seattle.

      We show wildlife and beautiful-sunset photos in profusion … this one, fwiw, was submitted to the WSB Flickr pool (got a pic? share it there! the link is in the photo caption) and I thought the composition was interesting. If we only showed the good side of everything, we wouldn’t be real and true. But I have a couple scenery/bird contenders for tomorrow :) – TR

    speaking of photographs- did any-one send a photo-graph of the CRAZY cloud formation above Mt. Rainier last night around 6 pm ? It kind of looked like the shape of a tornado or a giant stack of fluffy pancakes

    we didn’t doubled back to SSCC to get a second look, but didn’t have a camera. it was amazing.

      No. However, my friend Evonne from KING 5 posted one on Google Plus. That was pretty amazing. I’d imagine it’s on the KING Facebook page too.

    I will try to find that photo (and oops – in my editing, I forgot to take out the extra ‘didn’t’ –
    yikes!)

    Hey, i LIKE the pic of Mail vans! That lot used to be full of the old jeep-kind, then the minivan kind, and now the tailormade variety. Keep it up – – and thank you for showing a realistic slice of westside life every day!

      Furor, all photos welcome … well, within our rather prudish guidelines anyway :) and not violating anyone’s privacy etc. … I would love to show more slices-of-life, interesting places and people that we would never see otherwise, just covering what spans typical “news” … like the wildlife photos sent by the amazing folks who know just where and when and how to look (and know their way around the shutter and settings, too) … TR

Sorry, comment time is over.
