- Concrete incorporates on May 8, 1909. (historylink.org)
On May 8, 1909, the Town of Concrete in northern Skagit County is officially incorporated as a town of the fourth class when a certified copy of the county commissioners’ order incorporating the town is filed with the Washington Secretary of State’s office. The new town, located on the Skagit River at the mouth of the Baker River, combines two communities that grew up on either side of the Baker River – “Baker” on its west bank and “Cement City” on the east. Each has recently become home to a cement plant, taking advantage of the area’s large deposits of clay and limestone to manufacture cement, the major ingredient in concrete. Residents and company officials decide to merge the two communities into one incorporated town, named Concrete. Voters approve incorporation by a large majority, 149 to 2, in an election held on April 27. On May 5, county commissioners approve an order certifying the election results and ordering the incorporation, which is filed with the Secretary of State three days later.

As I was driving through Iceland viewing many of the different waterfalls, the scenery and surroundings kept reminding me of some other waterfall I had seen before…And then it clicked, a number of these falls were reminiscent of Palouse Falls, a truly spectacular waterfall in eastern Washington.
