Son of the Beach II

mini-04sign.jpgAlright, yesterday when we mentioned the abundant life occupying the waters at area beaches we didn't mean to come off as wildlife-phobes. Herons, sturgeon, hell, harbor seals: we'd love to come across that kind of beach life. Even jellyfish are fun to spot in the shallow water as long as you can avoid stepping on them. Anything with "fecal" in its name we're not that into, though, and ditto that for random floating corpses in the water.

A woman swimming laps (at the beach?) at Madison Park Beach came across a body floating under water yesterday. After convincing herself that the man wasn't "fooling around" she alerted life guards.

Luckily the corpse was not quite a corpse and paramedics were able to start his heart and get him to Harborview.
