A day of museums is the best way to describe our day. A lot of history is this old seaport. Today we will try and avoid the crowds an just visit two old forts.
As always, a couple of pitiful pictures to share
the murals on the tower depict various scenes of the history of the area. Astoria is built on the side of the hill with roads steeper than San Francisco. And the Jeep is a standard transmission. No Mary refused to drive!
I found this to be an interesting and surprising fact. Any number of cities I think would have been first
160 plus steps later we made it to the top. The staircase was so tightly wound dizziness was the bigger problem for both of us
A lot of facts summed up in one photo
A very nice museum, well worth your time and money
Interesting note is that there are drive thru coffee shops everywhere. Not just here in Astoria but all over the Pacific northwest.
Have a Happy Fourth of July everyone. We have jackets on, how about you?
seize the day
