The Wreckage (Ocean Park, Washington)
The Wreckage is a log house in Ocean Park, Washington, constructed of unhewn logs in 1912. The house was built by author Guy S. Allison on the Long Beach Peninsula as a beach house, using salvaged materials. Recovering driftwood from the Pacific Ocean, Allison also made what he called a "zoo" of driftwood animal shapes surrounding the house that appear on U.S. Geological Survey maps as "Wreckage Park Zoo." The collection was featured in Ripley's Believe It or Not! and ''Strange as it Seems''.
==Guy S. Allison==
Guy Selwin Allison was born near Hannibal, Missouri, on December 24, 1883. He arrived in Washington in 1906, attended the Washington State Normal School in Bellingham and became a teacher and principal in Tacoma in 1907-1909.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://beta.worldcat.org/archivegrid/data/56980808 )〕 In 1911, he married his wife Virginia, honeymooning on property in Ocean Park that he had purchased the same year. He left teaching for health reasons to work in the outdoors, and began writing his ''Bypaths of History'' syndicated column for western United States newspapers in the 1930s.〔 Author Walter A. Tompkins set his novel ''CQ Ghost Ship'' at The Wreckage.〔
