Hello all of you It’s me, Ben,
We were out crusin’ in our big rig down the Oregan coast
when we saw this really cool looking maritime museum. And it was cool! So we
walked through the cold rain and into the building. we first saw a 20 minute
video about the Columbia River bar. The bar is where 2000 ships of all shapes
and sizes were sunken. The bar is a
place of extremes it is where the mighty Columbia rapids collide with the waves
of the Pacific Ocean. The bar is so intense that special bar pilots are needed
to sail the ships through the 17 mile stretch of terror. We also learned about
the coast guard and all of their missions to make the Columbia bar a safer
place.
