Grandma's Ice Cream from Indiana to Washtucna, Wa


Not sure if this is operating. Grandma's ice cream van from Bloomington Indiana ended up here in Washtucna,WA. The town's bank left, the saloon remains aside from that not much in operation a sale in a derelict looking building that obviously isn't derelict if it has a sale inside but we were too scared to go in.....

Washtucna I love you!

 I love this town. Washtucna!
My second trip through with camera- it's been a couple years yet you don't degrade as quickly as more populated places with abandonment. 
The main drag, still the tavern is open and in business.
 a trailer park down the road is in half alive half asleep state.
I imagine moving here and being the weirdest person in the community.
I also imagine I'd be possibly the only one who has never shot a gun.

The some what quiet town of Washtucna

























Many a town we did pass on the way from Pullman to Palouse Falls and then onto Ellensburg for one final night before home again.
But this one was at the turn off for the Falls and we had to enter and exit through it so i couldnt ignore it's splendor and on the way out everyone was very patient with me as i hopped from one empty building to the next.
Welcome to Washtucna, population 208.
the Tavern was still open and seemed hopping for a friday afternoon.
if i were rich i would buy the whole town and run it myself- from banker to barista.
