Columbia River Maritime Museum

My good friend Robert from Olympia is visiting us for a few days. A chance for us to catch up, and for him to escape the unusual oppressive heat in Oly.

Today we visited the Columbia River Maritime Museum in Astoria. This is a wonderful museum documenting the history of the Columbia river basin, known as the Graveyard of the Pacific for the many ships that have sunk there at the confluence of the mighty Columbia River and the Pacific Ocean, both powerful and stubborn waters.


Afterwards, we fished off the dock. I managed to catch us some dinner.
