Neighborhood News and Local Blog Roundup

"Blustery Fall Day" by Seattlest Flickr Contributor Wayne Wooten
- Hello, weekend windstorm! The neighborhood blogs were aflutter about wind damage, power outages, and waves crashing over 520.
- The Rainier Valley Post has their weekly must-read letting you know what your City Council Member is scheduled to be up to this week. Looks like an exciting week at the City Council, covering topics such as sidewalk cafes (right in time for winter!) and the Mercer mess.
- MetBlogs has something about free money--which automatically makes us click off, fearful of what identity scam is coming next. But at quick glance, it appears to be legitimate--show up and get $10 and there is some pay-it-forward aspect to the scheme.
- MyBallard has a little something about Ballard's biggest celebrity Sig Hansen, of The Deadliest Catch.
- As Sarah Palin would say with a wink, god bless Mid-Beacon Hill's heart. She has a 5-week old infant and is still bringing us neighborhood news; including a charming review about returning to your old favorite pre-baby hang-out with a newborn in tow.
- Let your cell phone be your guide...isn't that what Jiminy Cricket always said? No? Oh well. If you want a little info on the art you see between Pike and Pioneer Square, your cell phone can now act as a knowledgeable art historian.
