Columbia River Gorge
Multnomah Falls
Astoria
From Battleground we drove down the mighty Columbia River to its mouth into the Pacific Ocean.
Our entry to Astoria was across the impressive 14 mile long Megler Bridge
The old port city of Astoria is interesting and a little unusual.
This trolley takes tourists up and down the waterfront for a few dollars.
The 100 year old Trolley is a draw card to this picturesque coastal town.
The restored Trolley has been fitted with an electric motor and it tows a generator to power it.
The operators point interesting things and fill us in with the history of the town.
The remains of a once thriving port is evident along the shoreline.
This building was bought by an artist to establish a gallery on the water.
Cannon Beach
Haystack Rock
A view of Haystack Rock from the south.
A couple of interesting coastal vista's.
Note: a mist rolls in from the right.
Our views were continually being blocked by these fogs.
We came to a stop on the coast called Sea Lion Caves.
From the car park at road level we caught an elevator down a couple of hundred feet to the caves. Beats walking up the steep cliff.
The elevator opens to a cave which overlooks the sea lion cave.
The road continually opened to magnificent vistas.
Brookings and Harbour
One of our Boondocking venues are Casinos.
We stayed overnight at the Lucky 7 Casino and woke up to a local club car meet.
This unassuming beast was a 1995 Ford Windstar people mover hiding a second supercharged chevy 350 engine. 14 cylinders in total. He blows away any takers at the lights.
A Hot Rod Tow Truck.
This 1960 Corvette is for sale. $55K.
51 Ford F-1 Pickup with mega noise in the tub.
