Great trip up river

Last Sunday, Glen and Jon reached Arlington, OR after a four day trip up the Columbia from Cape D.  Doug & Murna Marshall, Bob Meneghini and Jon Fisher joined him for various legs of the trip.

They stopped at Astoria and were greeted by the Astoria Regatta committee, which presented Glen with a "Best of" class plaque.  We are so awed by all the people who have gone out of their way to meet us, greet us and share the adventure.

Happy, surprised Glen with Tom Condit, Ryan Smith and committee members

We also had a great stop in The Dalles, with an interview with The Dalles Chronicle arranged by Ron Vergeer, and a chance meeting with Jerry Ostermiller, former director of the Columbia River Maritime Museum.  Pics to come later....
