Honestly, all the locals have nicknames for it, and I am not sure they know. There was an old sign that hung there that had the same inscription, but it didn't have girth.
Home, Washington is really cool. It might've been the first white nudist colony in the state? Not sure about that, but if you research "The nudes vrs the Prudes" you will have an interesting evening. Also include The Agitator in your search.
Home has some interesting beginnings.

I once typed in, "home," in the gps on my wife's iPhone, after a camping trip, because that's what I do on my android to get home.
Needless to say, we did not end up at our apartment.

So weird, literally just learned where Home was yesterday at work.

The exact same thing happened to me. Fortunately the difference was a 20 minute drive vs. 4 hour drive, so I didn't end up in Home, WA. lol

I’m blown away because I am obsessed with WA geography, yet I don’t know where Home is!

The way you phrase that implies there was a non-white nudist colony that predates it and that’s interesting.

The area had tribal activity, well I only really know about Filucy bay, which is about 15 minutes from this store. According to what I read on a sign, it was a bay that many different tribes visited during summer for foraging. Anyway, that's the reason I worded it like that, not sure if the tribes had any sort of tribe composed of nudity. Sorry if I overexplained, lol, early in the morning.

No thanks! Although in my mind, it would have been funnier if there was a group of black people who were like, “I know we’re dealing with equal rights, discrimination, and the typical economic worries of our time, but you know what’s really bugging me? These clothes, man!”
It’s early for me too, my mind wanders to humorous oddness.

You must be fun at parties! But to be fair, I was pretty buzzed last night. Probably could've worded the title better. Enjoy your day!

I don't know if it's still in business but there used to be a burger place in Home adjacent from the Home Country Store that made really good hamburgers.
WyleKilliams OP t1_ix001nr wrote
It was Tiki burgers? Or something? Tropical beach themed, I loved that place! Unfortunately it went away years ago. The homeport closed 2-3 years ago and they're opening a 2 Margaritas in the same location. Good Mexican food, can't wait it to open, the homeport was a legendary place for my buddies and me.
Aide_Gloomy t1_ix02woa wrote
I loved that little burger stand. Is 2 Margaritas open? Every time I drove by it always looked closed. I agree about Homeport. I used to go there with my parents and Grandpa for breakfast.
I thought the Lakebay Marina was supposed to open a restaurant? I was looking forward to that but it's been radio silence.

Do tell on the nicknames? My in-laws live a bit past Home so we often stop there on the way out. Good beer selection and my BIL endorses their Bulgogi Pizza :)
