“ Can you see me now?”😇
“How far are we going today honey?”😍
We were headed to the town of Fairhaven, at the Southern end of boulevard Park!😊
This very eclectic town, was founded by the Man sitting next to Liz……….
“Honey maybe you might want to put a little space between you and “Dirty Dan”!😳
They didn’t call him Dirty Dan Harris for no reason Lol!😮
They say he was a very shrewd businessman, and a bootlegger, and he also had an aversion to taking a bath!🙄😬
Dan Harris arrived in Bellingham in approximately 1853.
He acquired 43 acres along the shore that is now the town of Fairhaven, dividing it into 85 blocks.
When he died in 1890, they say his estate was worth over $100,000 a fortune by today’s standards!
Apparently he also had a temper……..
When a customer refused to pay for a piano, Dirty Dan rolled it down one of the steep hills in town and into Bellingham Bay!😮
The town of Fairhaven now celebrates this story by having an annual “Piano Race” in town Lol!🤣
“Care for a race Honey, I bet I can beat you back down to boulevard Park!”🥰
Enjoy Saturday my friends, Liz and Silvertop are ………..down by the Ocean!🤗
Till tomorrow Silvertop Mike 😊
