The Spruce Goose Aviation Museum

Dan and I were supposed to visit this museum before I moved to California, but we ran out of time on that ride down the coast. This time we were determined to fit it in. Dan put the address into his GPS and off we went, thankfully leaving the dullness of I-5 and off to explore something new and interesting!

No, I have no idea what Dan’s pointing to, but this tank looks like a blast!

Ah ha! It’s all a lie! But then again, who wants to visit the “Birch Bushtit”?

And what aviation museum is complete without a motorcycle?
