April 11
Seattle Sites of the Day:

Blas Uberuaga

"I recommend the Basque Country to anyone who is looking for some place to
visit... I also met all of my dad's family and a bit of my mom's... I lived
in one of the Basque Country's most beautiful cities, Donostia... We have
just formed the Seattle Euskal Etxea... I have tried to compile everything
that I could about the Basque people and put it here."
Senior Services: Homesharing

"Are you tired of living alone? Would you like some help with household
chores? Do you need help paying a mortgage or property taxes?"
Homesharing is "a non-profit intergenerational housing program matching
Seattle homeowners with people looking for a place to live. One person in
each match must be 55 or older. All applicants provide three character
references and complete a police background check... We match very
carefully for mutual benefit and compatibility."
29 Live

"29 Live has been providing a showcase for unsigned musical talent since
1995. The show currently airs in Seattle every Friday night at Midnight on
channel 29/77... Our modest goal is to produce a quality television program
and have plenty of fun in the process. ...the program also documents a
snapshot in time of the local music scene."
