OK, so I always thought that a state cannot have two cities with the same name... but, after looking at MetroGuide USA for MapSource, I noticed that there exists two towns by the name of Granite Falls. I know of the one in Snohomish County as it is a favorite vacation spot of mine, but there also exists a Granite Falls on the shore of Lake Chelan in Chelan County... I thought that the town may be an old defunct logging town but even the USGS has it listed on their website. What's going on here?

Pain is just weakness leaving the body.

That Granite Falls is a private resort, and they probably stole the name from Granite Creek, which flows into Lake Chelan.

A fuxk, why do I not give one?
