I'd heard rumors...
Upon moving to Seattle I'd heard rumors about houses that literally fell off the cliffs into the bay. Apparently during big storms a few years back the land eroded and the houses slowly slipped into the water. The residents had time to get out, but they didn't get to collect their belongings. In April we set off to find these fabeled homes and find them we did.
On the way to the home...
Creepy
In our search for the house that fell off a cliff during a land slide, we first came across this creepy drainage pipe. Ick.
Caroline
Caroline snaps a photo of the pillars that used to support a house.
The Tree
This tree was decorated with copper tins similar to the ones that used to decorate my grandmother's kitchen.
Random
A random tractor greeted us as we wandered along the beach.
Starfish
We found a random cement pillar that had collected rain water and, amazingly, four starfish. How bizarre! How'd they climb up and into this pillar? Who knows!
As we got closer to the house
Stairway to Heaven?
These stairs appear to lead into nothing. They basically deadend at a rock wall. Who knows how they ended up where they are.
Support beam
Crazy how much corrosion happens down here...
At the house
Spirit of 76
Dinner trays
Shellack
To preserve your household projects...
Seats
Patio furniture right on the beach
Wheel chair
We're assuming an older person used to live in this home
Dishes
We found lots and lots of broken ceramic dishes...
More stairs
Reminds me of the 80s song "I'm on a road to nowhere..."
Searching
Apparently we weren't the only ones searching. Caroline and I were looking to take phots. This gentleman was apparently searching for buried treasure. :) It was a fun journey... can't believe it was over a year ago when we went.
