Astoria Sunday Market weekly photo

Astoria Sunday Market ~ July 21, 2013

This is the weekly photo from Astoria Sunday Market!  Shown here are regular Market vendors Mary Altieri (left) and Ronni Harris sporting hat creations by Ronni.  As chose this shot it occurred to me that this blog rarely shows photos of people so I thought this would be a nice change.

The Pilot's Ladder

14th Street Pilot Station ~ July 2013

Professional cameraman and photographer Jeff Daly has created an amazing tribute to Columbia River pilots through an interesting art display called  Wood and Rope.  The photographs are displayed on actual ladders used by the pilots as they transfer to the large ships.  The display is in the commons area of the 14th Street Pilot Station located on the River Walk at the end of 14th.

Another Sunday at the Market

Astoria Sunday Market ~ 2012

This is a picture from last year at the Skipanon Brand Seafood booth.  You can still find Skipanon here at the Market every Sunday but this picture of the kids checking out the crawfish is among my favorites.

Armory

Armory at 17th & Exchange ~ July 9, 2013

We had a rare peek inside the old Armory building owned by Columbia River Maritime Museum.  Built in 1941 there are decades of memories packed into this space.  It has an unusual lamellar ceiling structure.

Kwis Kwis

Kwis Kiws Trail ~ June 29, 2013

We are so lucky to live in a town that has a wide variety of hiking, walking and biking trails within a few minutes from downtown.  This is the Kwis Kwis trail at the Lewis and Clark National Historical Park.  It gently undulates through a beautiful forested setting.
