Four Things Most Washingtonians Don't Know About Moses Lake

I just came across this entry by Joel of Moses Lake in his On the Other Foot blog. The only one of the four I knew was that Washington had more potatoes than Idaho. Washington even has the potatoes.com website.

I grew up in Quincy in the 70's and I do recall many of the older kids having Evel Knievel toys. Now I have to wonder if this was simply because Evel Knievel was popular during that time or if it was because he made his first jump in nearby Moses Lake?

For anyone that doesn't know who Evel Knievel is, the History Channel has a documentary about his life, Absolute Evel: The Evel Knievel Story.
