| Rose Lodge, West Seattle postcard. Postmarked June 9, 1910. |
Could Mount St. Helens really have been visible from West Seattle in its pre-eruption years? Mount Rainier, yes, Mt. Baker, yes … but St. Helens?
Where is Rose Lodge located? It is possible that Mt. St. Helens may have been visible during a perfectly clear summer sunset, but I have my doubts. I’m more curious about the “graceful craft, flying” – boat or plane? As the first engine-powered airplane to fly was the Kitty Hawk on December 17, 1903, I assume “flying” to mean “sailing”. Also, B.W. Baker must have never seen the Mediterranean, as it’s only similarity to Puget Sound is saltwater.
The word on the card is Plying, so yes they are meaning sailing or possibly engine powered navigation of the waters.
hey, where’s freidlander court?
The Rose Lodge is at 6314 SW Wilton Court. It’s between 63rd Ave SW and 64th Ave SW, a half a block from Beach Drive SW.
