y With Justine Ueathei ford
Last wee,k I finally received the last of my packages from
Germany. ThVy had been opened at New York, and a U.S.
Government forhv was inserted which informed me that my
six precious cansof liverwurst had been "removed and
destroyed" by the U.. Dept. of Agriculture because "wurst
from Germany could carry several animal diseases." So for
better or wurst we live and learn.
Inez Irwin and I certajnly enjoyed a recent Heppner visit
with Marsha Lovgren. Wetwo ex-teachers keep saying how
wonderful she was to us in London. We know we could not
have seen nearly as much so pleasureably without our
former pupil teaching us where to go and how to get there.
From 6 a.m. on July 4, until 6 p.m. July 8, my friend Ida
Farra and I were making a big swing around our beautiful
state seeing so much of interest and delight and visiting
friends and relatives. The Columbia Gorge was lovely as
always; a visit in Portland and another visit at Silverton
went well. We ate our carry -along lunVh in the pioneer park
along Silver Creek. In Salem, we noted many persons
enjoying the park surrounding the sjate capitol. After
crossing the Willamette I asked Ida whether she would like to
go toward Corvallis through Monmouth or dependence. She
quickly replied "Since this is Independence Day, let's go
via Independence." We found that little old river town hasn't
made the growth that college-centered Monmouth has. I
recall the huge hop ranches near Independence" which are
gone now.
After most enjoyable dining and guesting in the homes of
Martha King's sister Barbara Kennedy Ware and brother
Dick, and Bud and Helen Kennedy, we departed early on the
5th for the coast. We had Alsea River Chinook salmon and
other super goodies for our breakfast at my former Corvallis
neighbor's home between Alsea and Tidewater. Then as we
drove south on uncrowded Hwy. 101 along Oregon's
picturesque Pacific Shore we stopped several times to pick
up driftwood and to take snapshots. At Coos Bay we left 101
and went westward to Coquille where we visited with Rev. Ed
and Doris Cutting.
Although Coquille has a population of about 5,000, the city
is almost without a nice park just a little lot with a fireplace
and tables behind its large Community Recreation Center.
We lunched there before locating the Methodist Church and
the parsonage.
After a usual delicious meal prepared by Doris Cutting, I
drove on through Winston and south to Medford to my son Bill
Haberlach's home. Ida stayed in Coquille until Saturday
afternoon when the Cuttings brought her to the Senior
Residence Plaza at Canyonville where I met them at 3 p.m.
Then I rushed we two south to historic Jacksonville and to
Ashland.
At Jacksonville, there is a tremendous new attraction, a
beautifully restored, Victorian mansion, the Jeremiah
Nunan House. We were fortunate to get a special tour of this
exciting "catalog house" that had been shipped in 1890 in kit
form from Knoxville, Tenn,. We learned about its present
owners' struggles to restore it and to furnish it most
appropriately. There are five beautiful fireplaces and many
other exciting features. The assortment of woods used
include oak, pine, cherry, fir, walnut and most noteably,
bird's-eye pine. This place is a "must see" if you like lovely
old homes and antique furniture.
At Ashland, in Lithia Park below and behind the
Shakespearean Center, we had our biggest laugh. As we were
strolling along the lovely duck pond admiring the many
female ducks with their clusters of little ducklings, a couple
strolled toward us also observing the little ducks huddled
under and very close to their mothers. The man said "Oh look
those little ones are nursing.!" His wife and Ida and I
couldn't help laughing loudly as we thought of the little
beaked, egg-born creatures nursing.
After a sumptuous Chinese dinner in Medford Saturday
night we retired early and were out on our way toward Crater
Lake before 5 a.m. Sunday. We got to Union Creek before
Beckie's opened at 6 a.m. There we learned that the tourist
trade is "way behind" its last year's volume. Following
breakfast we went on through the South Gate into Oregon's
great National Park. I so enjoyed telling about the super-blue
water in the tremendous volcanic crater. Ida couldn't resist
playing in the roadside snow.
We made the short side-trip into Diamond Lake, too,
because Delia McCurdy had said, "You might as well see
Diamond Lake, too." Then we came so straight east and then
north to the Bend-Redmond-Pilot Butte-Prineville area. The
high point of our time in Prineville was a visit with Ola
Ruggles in the Ochoco Nursing Home. She was pleased that
v,e. popped and said to tell everyone at home in Heppner that
she is ftjing to return to her apartment here soon.
A phone visit-with my sister-in-law, Edythe Weatherford
Newell, brought a plea that we stop at the Eastern Oregon
Annual Pioneer Pic'nicMn Julia Henderson Pioneer Park
between Service Creek and Fossil. We did that, and we
enjoyed part of the afternoon program honoring the 1979
Queen Vada Fitzgerald of Mitchell. We sat with the
Weatherfords from OleXand Arlington.
Now, we have bankedmore pleasant memories of
wonderful Oregon experience,
