Treasure and Mysteries on Vashon Island!

“Just READ it!!” said my 7th grade grammar teacher. Although she was referring to something else entirely, her words ring just as true today. This book is the first-ever catalog of hidden treasures, mysterious events, and weird things on Vashon and Maury Islands. By buying this book and reading it carefully, you may be able to discover some of those lost treasures and find your path to fame and glory!! If not, you can at least take some comfort knowing that you’ve contributed to the retirement fund of a crackpot whose retirement plan until now consisted of the world’s largest collection of antique door knobs. I could tell you that most of the stories in this book are true. Or I could tell you that only some of them are true and that others have been “embellished.” What I certainly cannot say is that all of the weird things on Vashon have been cataloged here. Park yourself out in front of the grocery store for a couple of hours and you’ll see what I mean. Cecil Benthos Bean Blossom, Indiana
