Down for maintenance? Did they have to scoop dead bodies out of it? A James Bond Villain's evil scheme to drain Seattle dry?

FOr years, I've been driving by the sign on I5 for the Saltwater State Park - and for some reason the name intrigued me. No real reason - just a "So I wonder what they have there? Salt Water?"

Well, when I found myself abandoned on a Saturday, I decided to check it out. What do they have there?

Well, that would be telling. . . .

Found this incredibly bizarre bronze statue of an elderly fisherman in joyful embrace of a fish that is nearly the same size as himself. And then things take a left turn into weirdsville when you realize that the fish has human female breasts.

. . . yeah.

This is my Ray Harryhausen tribute picture. Okay, admittedly it's more Ed Wood than Ray, but I thought I'd at least try a tribute to the Lord High God of special effects.

PROTIP: if you're doing a Paper Plate Flying Saucer on a String photo - do not pick the windiest place in the city to do it!

Did you know that there is no photography of people and store fronts allowed at Redmond Town Center?
