Western Antique Aeroplane and Automobile Museum

Jack really likes airplanes.  He had dreams of flying fighter aircraft.  Unfortunately, the air Force recruiter took one look at his glasses and laughed.

Years later, a friend took him out for a flight in a small airplane.  He had to lay down on their front lawn until his stomach came in for a landing.

But we can still go to air museums.  And we found a doozy just outside of Hood River Oregon:

I am not an airplane (or aeroplane) fan.  But this museum is different.

This has 118, airplanes, like this Curtiss Pusher, which recently flew from Portland to Vancouver.  (In fact, most of their airplanes still fly.  Except for the ones that are currently in pieces.)

 
It has 138 automobiles, like this Hudson Hornet (for all you CARS fans out there).
 
The best ever name for a Repair shop
 
Also jeeps, motorcycles (Any Harley fans out there?)
 
And stuff related to airplanes, like an airplane quilt...
 
 


Cameras...  (do I have to explain flashbulbs to anybody?)
 
Phones (those of you who are less that 25 can now see an actual phone dial)...
 
And dolls.
 
This is an unpaid advertisement.
