In 1992, just a few days after Thanksgiving, an explosion at the old plywood mill started a fire that burned for hours, causing all electric to get shut off for the city of Anacortes and all the San Juan Islands. Built in 1939, the mill on Fidalgo Bay had served as an integral part of the Anacortes economy for decades. Thirty years later, remnants from the fire like this aptly-named “BURN” relic sometimes still wash ashore.
