Morty Comix # 2608
The fate of Morty Comix # 2607 is so obscure even I don't know where it landed! But it has to be somewhere in Butler, Pennsylvania. Meanwhile, let's stroll to downtown Butler, where I placed Morty Comix # 2608 in the back cover a sample book in a print shop-- the same print shop that has printed the work of Tom Rehm, Maximum Traffic, Buzz Buzzizyk, and even the mysterious Borpo Deets.

"Westport, Washington, Salmon Capital of the World. This view shows the
sheltered harbor of this world famous fishing fleet. In the foreground
are the berths for the commercial fishing fleet, which is out catching
fish the day this photo was taken and at the top is the sports fishing
fleet, and the white streaks is the wake from a few of the boats as they
return with their limit of fish."

Morty Comix # 2605
Morty Comix # 2605 was hidden in a piano bench in a home in Butler, Pennsylvania. But the residents are wise to me now and have already discovered this one.
Morty Comix # 2378 was also hidden in a piano bench in Oly last year, and the deed was filmed by the Ron and Louise and used in the Bezango film promo.

fishing fleet, behind that is the sport fishing fleet, and then in the

fishermen -- Quit wishin' -- go fishin'."

Morty Comix # 2603
Morty Comix # 2603 was placed behind a wonderful silkscreen poster created by Mike Q. Roth. The poster is hanging in a home in Butler, Pennsylvania. Roth is one of the co-creators of the work Building a Better Robot.

of the motels, restaurants and stores that service the thousands of

and the white streaks are some of the boats returning."

KGY radio has been in the Olympia, Washington area since 1922. Their FM station is supposedly based right here in little McCleary, but we have no evidence of them being here and they don't seem to cover our local news with any investigative zeal. I wish they would.
But I do love seeing their weird building at low tide on Budd Inlet.
