 The Air Museum use to be a blimp hanger during the war. There were several others that use to be there also.


I'm glad lunch was not a disappointment It is one of our favorite lunch stops.

I have to say Oregon is a wonderful state to ride in. From the coast to the mountains to the Columbia river. You who are attending the GTG we have a blast. Unfortunetly we have a prior obligation for those dates and will not atrtend . hope to see some of you in San Juan Baptist on Labor day.


So here are a few more barns from Oregon

Entering CA from OR we passed Mt Shasta said to have mystical powers , at least that is what mystical people tell me

[RidinRuby]

Shasta is an inactive volcano

You know your back in CA when you can hit the rest stop for a little puff

[RidinRuby]

Of course if you hang out too long in the rest stop the gulls give you a little wink to let you know its time to go

[RidinRuby]

And with that our journey comes to a close, I hope you enjoyed our posts as much as we did posting them.

A great thread and a great trip!! Like you, I am sorry to see it come to an end.  Fortunately, it will be preserved on this board for a long time so many more can enjoy it.  It surely won't be the same for those who go thru the 25 pages all at once.  So many of us got to live it as you traveled and we looked for your posts daily - and sometimes we worried and wondered what had become of you.  Thanks again for sharing your trip and I'm looking forward to the next one!
