Notes.

Original destination was Madras, but traffic and weather forecasts pointed us to Salem. Josh Cozby provided invaluable information about Salem viewing options (an invite to his house too)--thank you!

Members of our party included cousin Carole (Washington DC), her niece Linda (Olympia, Washington) and her great nephew Matt (Portland).
