Aha!! Now it makes me wonder if the so-called Leaning Tree was actually leaning or even a tree! Thanks for the information.

Hello David - can you tell me where Nodule Point is - on Whidbey? and what are the 'cool rocks' - Are they 'concretions'? Many thanks, ellenleggett@gmail.com

David, I took swimming lessons from Helene Madison, Seattle's Olympic champion swimmer, at Moore Pool. Must have been in the late 1950s.

David, unless there are two Nodule Points, the one I know (well) is on the SE coast of Marrowstone Island. M. Machette, Quimper Geological Society, Port Townsend.

Good point. You are correct. Not sure where my brain was on that one. I will fix it.
