Success


The Museum opening was a success.  Here I am right after we opened the doors promptly at noon last Saturday!

As was expected, we probably had a grand total of 6 people come in, not counting our families.  For us, I suppose that's successful but, naturally, that total could be improved on considerably.

In any case, it was fun.  Some of our older volunteers sat around the big walnut table, stacked with Redmond High School yearbooks, and reminisced.  We also had a large Oregon map from the 1930's, blown up large, facing out the front window.  It was interesting seeing which towns listed on that map no longer exist.  Towns like Opal City, Suntex, and Rolyat, to name a few.  And there was no Lincoln City back then; just a collection of towns that later joined forces to become that city.  I really enjoy little trivia facts like this!

Have a good Monday everyone.
