The
summer marches on……
John & Sheri invited us to an
Edsel car show
and pizza party at their friends home…..
Then later in the week, we drove to
Keizer, OR
to an “Official” Edsel Car show.
This classic car and the matching vintage trailer were so cute.
We spent a week on the Oregon Coast
and while we were there,
we drove up to the Tillamook Air Museum.
This was the home of Oregon’s Blimp force.
It was very interesting.

We also saw several older fighter jets
as well.
After leaving the coast, we came up to
Ridgefield….
just north of Vancouver.
Brandon & Karen live just a few
miles from here
so we have been able to
spend time with them, Ben and Anna
too!
We had a great dinner with my sister
and her husband.
So good to see them.
Ben drove us (yes – Ben is driving
now)
up to the Mt. St. Helens Visitor center.
Remarkable visitors
center – but – with all of the smoke
there was nothing out the window to
see.
One day, we took a short hike up the
Lewis river to Lucia Falls.
The river area and falls were
beautiful.
We took MAX (Portland’s light rail)
into the city.
First stop was Portland’s Saturday
Market.
It was like College of the
Desert on steroids.
So many vendors….. so many people.
We took MAX over to our very favorite!
Lunch at Goose Hollow – best Rueben
sandwiches EVER!
Another day we had lunch over at
Jantzen Beach with John & Sheri!
The St. John’s bridge over the Willamette
River
Is gorgeous!
The weather in the Portland area has
been warm this summer
But the smoke has been terrible. We are so glad
the fires are getting under control
and the smoke is clearing out.
