Salmon Viewing at Carkeek Park
Coho and chum salmon are running in Piper’s Creek in November and December. If you’ve ever been interested in learning more about salmon in Seattle’s urban creeks this is a great opportunity.
Trained guides will be available in the lower meadow at Carkeek Park 11 am – 2 pm every Saturday and Sunday from November 7th until December 6th. The guides will facilitate salmon viewing and provide information on how to help perpetuate these urban salmon runs.
This is a chance to see and learn more about nature in one of our city’s neatest parks. There is no need to sign up, just drop in any time during the listed hours and look for one of the salmon stewards in blue vests.
Limited Internet Access
Due to my current ISP, Clear, selling the company to Sprint, and Sprint not continuing the internet service (they just wanted the cell towers for phone service), I will no longer have internet access at home for the foreseeable future. I’ll have to go to the library to connect, which obviously makes things a wee bit inconvenient!
What this means for the blog is that I will continue to post previews, but my little park news tidbits and photos will be much more infrequent. I’m posting this so all my subscribers know that I’ll still be alive, just a bit out of touch.
My disconnectedness starts Thursday, and I anticipate severe withdrawal symptoms.
Accessibility Travel Blog
I just ran across a blog that some of my readers may find helpful. I believe the blogger is located in the UK, and she primarily posts about places in Europe. But she also provides tips on useful websites for travelers in all parts of the world.
Alison, the blogger, has MS, and has often been frustrated by the lack of accessibility info she needs related to travel and local outings. So like me, she decided if no one else was providing the info, she would.
The name of her blog is Accessibility Reviews. If you enjoy travel and would like accessibility tips on places and websites, consider subscribing to her blog.
