(Winter beauty, photographed by Theresa Arbow-O’Connor)

A quiet weekend continues:

TRAFFIC NOTE – HIGHLAND PARK WAY: As announced late last night, it’s open again after the day-and-a-half landslide closure.

TRAFFIC ALERT – LOW-BRIDGE CLOSURES: Today is the second of five Sundays during which SDOT plans to close the low bridge three times, up to half an hour each time, for measurements needed to prepare for repair work, as explained here. The closures are expected to happen around 9 am, 1 pm, and 5 pm.

CHURCHES: We’re still updating our weekly list of West Seattle online church services (with many churches also offering in-person attendance, though several have gone back to online-only TFN because of the current COVID surge) – see the list here.

COVID-19 VACCINATIONS: Pliable tells us today’s 8:30 am-4:30 pm vaccination clinic at Neighborhood House High Point (6400 Sylvan Way SW) will accept all eligible walk-ups, including boosters. This will be Pliable’s last Sunday clinic until January 30th.

WEST SEATTLE FARMERS’ MARKET: 10 am-2 pm, with more produce expected this week compared to last Sunday, it’s the weekly WSFM (WSB sponsor). (California SW between SW Oregon and SW Alaska)

POP-UP CLEANUP: Last-minute cleanup with CleanupSEA, meet at Don Armeni Boat Ramp (1222 Harbor SW) at noon – more info here.

NEED FOOD? White Center Community Dinner Church serves a free meal (take-away available) at 5 pm Sundays at the Salvation Army Center (9050 16th SW).

SUNDAY NIGHT KARAOKE: 8 pm to 1 am at Admiral Pub (2306 California SW).

SUNDAY NIGHT JAZZ: Triangular Jazztet at The Alley (4509 California SW), 8 pm and 9 pm sets.

Is the 1st Ave South bridge closed? I can’t find anything online about it but google maps says it is.

WSB January 9, 2022 (9:17 am)

No.

  Google maps says Bridge closed until Jan 14. LOL someone might’ve hacked google maps.

  Take a look at the bridge Twitter feed for this morning around that time, the bridge was open and closed so many times I could feel the breeze. Same with the southpark bridge all day. Something was going on.

We got our booster this morning at Neighborhood House. Incredibly well-run! Thanks to Pliable, again.

Laura. Around that time it was open for marine traffic. Maybe Google picked up on that??

Thanks for mentioning the CleanupSEA cleanup! Everyone welcome. Meet at Noon today at the north end of Don Armeni Park at the lookout where the locks are on the fence. Picker sticks provided. Gorgeous day to make West Seattle even more beautiful! Visit CleanupSEA.com to learn more about community cleanups and get involved. Thanks!

Thanks WSB for the heads up on the vaccine clinic.And thanks Pliable for an efficient operation. In and out for a booster in about fifteen minutes without an appointment! Plenty of parking within a block or so. Line was not long and it moves pretty fast.

West Seattle branch of Seattle Public Library is closed today.

WSB January 9, 2022 (2:28 pm)

Thanks. I have checked SPL’s webpage repeatedly today and figured if no closures were posted by noonish they weren’t having any. NOW it’s posted. I should have checked their Twitter account, which had earlier word. Going to set that on push notification until all this is over.
