Route Description
Originating at U.S. Route 101 on the Olympic Peninsula, it runs southeasterly towards Hood Canal, and crosses it to the Kitsap Peninsula on the third longest floating bridge in the world, the Hood Canal Bridge. From there it continues to Kingston, from which the ferry run to Edmonds is an integral part of the route. It continues its southeasterly course from Edmonds and crosses State Route 99 just north of the King–Snohomish County line. SR 104 becomes the line itself from just east of SR 99 to its intersection with Interstate 5, where it once again turns southeast, as Ballinger Way N.E. The highway ends at Bothell Way N.E. (State Route 522) in Lake Forest Park.

Famous quotes containing the words route and/or description:
“A route differs from a road not only because it is solely intended for vehicles, but also because it is merely a line that connects one point with another. A route has no meaning in itself; its meaning derives entirely from the two points that it connects. A road is a tribute to space. Every stretch of road has meaning in itself and invites us to stop. A route is the triumphant devaluation of space, which thanks to it has been reduced to a mere obstacle to human movement and a waste of time.”
—Milan Kundera (b. 1929)
“It [Egypt] has more wonders in it than any other country in the world and provides more works that defy description than any other place.”
—Herodotus (c. 484–424 B.C.)
