Lewis & Clark

We're in Astoria, Oregon at Lewis & Clark RV and Golf Park.

We've stayed here before. It's a nice park with a golf course. We're in a back-in site. Peggy backed us in when we got here!

This is our view of the golf course from our site.

This town is on the Columbia River. It's one of the most treacherous rivers to navigate, coming in from the ocean. So they have a Pilot guide them in. He knows the way in and around what they call the "Bar". We saw it pick up one of the pilots from a ship.

Here's a list of people lost on the "Bar". I notice one of them was Captain Ed Quinn lost in 1973. No relation.

   Lots of ocean going ships in the river.

They even have cruise ships come in here.

The river walk is kinda cool.

The river walk has two breweries on it. The Buoy Beer Company and Astoria Brewing Company. 

We had a local dish at Buoy. Tasteless cheese curds. I didn't care for them but the beer was good.

The Big Bridge over the Columbia River to Washington.

Logging is still big here, we see a lot of logging trucks.

Got this picture from Lee Ann, The Grizwald family vacation. In Deadwood, SD. Looks like they had a good time.
