Your suspicions confirmed
I came to grips with this fact many years ago: Anacortes is an absolutely amazing community set in one of the most breathtaking corners of the Pacific Northwest.

‘Old Ironsides’ once visited Anacortes: 1933
Few people know that the community of Anacortes was once honored with a 5-day visit by U.S. Frigate Constitution, affectionately referred to as “Old Ironsides.” The masted vessel dropped anchor in Anacortes in 1933 during a rare Pacific Coast tour.
