Astoria

Astoria, Oregon is the first and oldest permanent US settlement west of the Rockies. It was once the second largest city in Oregon. The Columbia River bar is known as "The Graveyard of the Pacific," with over 2000 wrecks and 700 lives lost.

This bridge called the Astoria-Megler is the longest continuous truss span in North America. It is 4.1 miles. I accidentally drove over it one day. My knuckles were white.


There are lots of shops and business on the docks.

This is one of many beautiful and interesting docks.

Max and I did a day trip to Seaside. This statue of Lewis and Clark is at the Promenade

LL and I at a lookout point. Boy, don't we look like we are having a good time. We just got done snapping at each other. I guess pictures don't lie. Don't worry we got over it by the time we got to the car. Oh the joys of 25 yrs of marriage:)
