The Bluebill Fall Prevention Program highlights hazards in the home and talks about tools that can be used to help prevent falls. Improvements such as grab bars and handrails are critical; so is the awareness of possible dangers, such as lighting, clutter, throw rugs, extension cords on the floor and more.
The Bluebills identify and provide installation of these improvements to your home, and attendees can sign up for a home inspection at the meeting.
The meeting is set for 3-5 p.m., Thursday, April 16 at the Bay Club, 120 Spinnaker Place, Port Ludlow. Contact Dick Ostlund for more information at 360-437-7747.
This Mystery Spot is something that all Timberton Village residents have seen. It is a very small picture of a larger thing. It’s a bit fuzzy, since I enlarged just that portion of the picture I took of the ‘thing’.
Where is it? Enter your gueses in the comment box below.
If you have a suggestion for a Mystery Spot, just let us know via the Contact the Web Guy page.
And did you know that the Web Guy has started up a Facebook page for Port Ludlow residents? It’s a closed group, so you have to ask for access – just go to the page and click on the button. Not very members of the page right now, which is why you should join the page and tell others around here. With lots of participants, it can be a great resource for Port Ludlow residents.
Updated 15 Apr 2015: the comment below from Vicki is correct. It is the letter ‘i’ in the “MI” (“4.5 Mi”) on the Timberton Trail sign, visible as you drive up Timberton Drive. Here’s the pictures.
Watch for bears! The unseasonably warm weather we have experienced over the past month has stirred hibernating bears.“Black bears usually start making appearances in mid- to late-April, but warm weather can cause them to stir earlier. They are hungry when they emerge from their dens because they lose up to half of their body weight during hibernation,” says Fish and Wildlife Specialist Rich Beausoleil. “Natural foods are scarce this early in the year, so bears often start looking for the easiest source of high protein food.”
