McCleary, Washington Does Not Exist!




According to this map in the 2010 Traveler's Companion : the Definitive Guide to Southwest Washington and Northwest Oregon, my town does not exist!

I have circled where McCleary is supposed to be. Apparently our town exists in another dimension. Actually that might explain a few things. On the highest point in the road between Oly and the beach, I've always said we are in that narrow Twilight Zone where the Aberdeen and Olympia spheres of influence don't quite touch.

Actually there are quite a few other towns missing, including Oakville, Satsop, Brady, Cosmopolis, Bezango, Cathlamet, Tokeland, Humptulips, Bucoda, Rainier, and many more.
