September 17th

This morning we hooked up and everyone headed out towards Newport, if we went straight there we would be there in just over 60 miles.  Nope we are doing a side trip to the Spruce Goose Museum in route to Newport.  It is located just out side of McMinnville.  It is called the Evergreen Aviation Museum and right across the street is the Evergreen Space Museum.

This is the entrants to where the Spruce Goose is, we as in Cyndy & I last seen this when we were in LA at the Queen Mary.  They moved the Spruce Goose here then built the building around it.  Here are a few pictures inside.

 Here just out side from the viewing area of the Spruce Goose a few of our guest are watching a movie  about the building of the Spruce Goose.

There are a lot of planes here, I just enjoyed looking at all of them.
We walked across to the Space Museum.

I could spend a hole day here just looking through everything but as time goes we only had about 3 hours and it went by real fast.  Here are a few pictures that we took inside of the Space Museum.

We finally made it to Newport Marina and RV Park, it is real nice.  Tomorrow we will be exploring  the sites in this area.
