The townspeople of Oakville, Washington, were in for a surprise on August 7, 1994. Instead of their usual downpour of rain, the inhabitants of the small town witnessed countless gelatinous blobs falling from the sky. Once the globs fell, almost everyone in Oakville started to develop severe, flu-like symptoms that lasted anywhere from 7 weeks to 3 months. Finally, after exposure to the goo caused his mother to fall ill, one resident sent a sample of the blobs for testing. What the technicians discovered was shocking – the globs contained human white blood cells. The substance was then brought to the State Department of Health of Washington for further analysis. With another startling reveal, they discovered that the gelatinous blobs had two types of bacteria, one of which is found in the human digestive system. However, no one could successfully identify the blob, and how they were connected to the mysterious sickness that plagued the town.

I looked into this story and it checked out.

That’s driftwood.

Bigger than a single-story house. It washed ashore near Washington state’s Olympic National Park, where this photo was taken. The tree most likely fell into a river after flooding and floated out to sea. High tides and strong wind then pushed it back on shore.

I know where they are.

In Southeastern Washington, there is an area commonly referred to as the Palouse region.  It’s characteristically hilly and the land is generally fertile.  It is home to Washington State University, and extensive agricultural production occurs here.  Dotted among the rolling hills are farms which have been previously abandoned and are now run downed tributes to the families of farmers whom used to inhabit the area.  I am unsure how old these farms are but judging from the equipment that was left behind on some of these farms, I can say they vary from 30-80 years past abandonment.

There is a peculiar spot on Vashon Island, WA that has intrigued natives and tourists alike.  Pictured here, it appears that a tree has grown around a bike.  There are many stories that circulate about the origins of the bike but if you were to ask, most people would tell you that a little boy chained his bike to this tree and forgot where he chained it, abandoning it to mother nature decades ago.  To this day, no one has come forward to reclaim the bike and it has become a part of Vashon Island lore.
