Western Railroad Discussion > Nomo's NW VacationDate: 11/05/12 08:51 Nomo's NW Vacation Author: nomosantafe I recently spent a week in Oregon & Washington. I was there to attend the Autumn Leaf 2012 Slide Show in Centralia, WA.
I spent several days in the Columbia Gorge. The weather wasn't great, but it was still great to spend time in "God's country" (I know, Texan's won't agree). Her's a few photos from my trip. 1. WB at Stevenson, WA 10/25/12 2. WB between Hood & Cooks 3. This used to be a Calendar Shot for the SP&S , tree has grown up in the last 20 years Nomosantafe Fort Worth, Texas "Where the West Begins" Date: 11/05/12 08:52 Nomo's NW Vacation part 2 Author: nomosantafe Date: 11/05/12 08:57 Nomo's NW Vacation part 3 Author: nomosantafe Date: 11/05/12 09:02 Nomo's NW Vacation part 4 Author: nomosantafe I got out on Sunday with old friend TO member "aline".

Yes it is, Dale! Thanks for the correction. No idea where 'Riverbank' came from in mind last night. I corrected it above too. Paul Birkholz Sheridan, WY Date: 11/06/12 11:14 Re: Nomo's NW Vacation part 4 Author: mcfflyer Yo, Randy! Nice photos!
That guy in the photo. I might know him. Our paths crossed at Oregon State once or twice. Lee Hower - Sacramento |
