Allison Washougal Whore ❤️

About Phoenix

Back in the day—medieval times, right?—they’d brand a chick “whore” for sneezin’ wrong. Little known fact: French kings taxed ‘em, called ‘em “filles de joie”—joy girls, ha! What a joke. Made me mad as hell—still does. Vader don’t play with exploitin’ the weak. But then, flip it—some owned it, flipped the script. Like, 1800s courtesans in Paris, rakin’ cash, fuckin’ nobles, livin’ large. Surprised me, honestly—thought it was all doom ‘n’ gloom. Kinda badass, y’know?

A summary of Washougal history through a selection of excerpts from Richenda Fairhurst's Images of America book "Washougal.".

And you know what? I’m always tellin’ my pals: Washougal, they're geniuses. Every block, every twist is surprising, so real, so raw. I love how even our local library on Maple is a chill place. Smudged lines on its entry? Crazy, but endearing. Took a chance there, met local artists, learned a thing or two about love.
