Oregon Trip

Replace this box with a map shows Vancouver to Newport, then add a drawing tracing the route of our trip.

I want to see a wolf cause I think they are really cute and I love seeing animals. Also I haven’t seen a wolf since probably grade 2 when I did the grouse grind with my mom.

I like this video cause we were going across a 7 km bridge. It had a really pretty view of the Columbia River. Also we were on our way to go the Astoria Column which I was excited for.

The Astoria Column is 125 feet tall and is covered on the outside by a painting that depicts the history of Lewis and Clark’s expedition

Oregon Day 2

Fort Stevens

Today while at fort Stevens I learned that they had many guns and cannons that they used. There were 2 cannons that were really dangerous they had to shut down. When they shut them down they had to put a concrete cover overtop because the Japanese might bomb it. The Japanese also would not know that it is not in operation. They also had to shut down the cannons cause every time they lowered it back into the room all the soldiers had to move to a save place so they wouldn’t suffocate in all the smoke from the cannons.

High Life Adventures

I think that things like this are important because if you live in a small town you normally have to drive a while to get to most big attractions. It also keeps you having fun in your small town and with your community.

Today I had flaming beef which is beef served on fire.

Oregon Day 3

Columbia River Maritime Museum
First Nations Section

When the first peoples first settled in this area they started all the foundations and buildings to support families. They started traditions and found ways to eat and survive cold winters. They made hunting tools and tools to build things and figured out how to live an amazing life while working hard to support others. They helped start up all the villages and communities. If they did not colonize here we would be very behind time because they started the simple tools and ways to eat.

Columbia River Maritime Museum
Crossing the Bar Section

I think it would be really cool to cross the bar but it would very dangerous and wold take a very long time to cross. I think if I had a chance to cross the bar had all the right gear and training I would because it is a once in a life time thing to do. Many people do not get the chance to cross the bar and if you had a good crew all the safety essentials you have a high chance of getting through to the bar safe with no casualties. If I were to cross the bar I would have to go through probably a year of training and hard work which calls for a lot of determination and effort. If I were to work really hard and do the best I could I would be able to cross the bar and accomplish something very big. I would be very happy to cross the bar when I have gotten training and gear.
