ADVANCE FOR WEEKEND EDITIONS, DEC. 17-18 = -In this Nov. 18, 2016 photo, Gig Harbor sweethearts Mattie and Jake Harrison pose for a photo along the Thea Foss waterway in Tacoma, Wash.

Four years later they got a message that the bottle had been found. Not once, but several times. And each time a new note was added. Today, the bottle is most likely still floating out there somewhere in Puget Sound. (David Montesino/The News Tribune via AP)
