Holy crap, I swim in Lake Washington all the time, there are bodies down there? Fuck, this is going to creep me out. Good thing I've got a nice long fall, winter, and spring to forget I ever saw these before I go to Magnuson next summer.

*shudder*

Yeah, they're quite creepy. What got me was the fact that they're quite intact - almost like they've still got clothes on or something, although its hard to tell. I'm not really sure how well they'd be preserved down there. Lake Washington's freshwater isn't it? Figured things would eat them or something, hmmmm.

Oh well. Interesting all the same.

Those are probably just mannequins.



Don't tell me I'm wrong or I'll never swim again. :(

Yeah, it's freshwater.

It's all I can do to get past all of the grass and other plants reaching up for me from the bottom. Now I'll imagine they're hands. Hands of the dead trying to pull me into the depths!

I'm going to have nightmares about this.
