Today we went to Cannon Beach, Seaside and Astoria. We founf the Lewis and Clark Cemetery and some of the Harders. We found the Falls on Youngs River, and the Lewis and Clark Valley where the Harder farm was, we have to go back to find the farm, but we know the general area. It was just such a rush to find them! Dad was excited too. Here are pics from today.

Amazing amazing amazing! What a rush that must be to find our ancestors! Those pictures are fantastic.
That is so great!!! I am so glad Gram and Gramp got to make that trip! The beach pictures look so great...isn't it a wonderful place? I love to imagine what it was like for those Oregon Pioneers, to ahve traveled "from sea to shining sea" and to find that pristine coast and the farmlands, mountains, and forests...JACKPOT! Those cemetery pix make me want to make headstone rubbings!
