South Morrow County's Number One Real Estate Company
2009 Morrow County Historical
Society tour ‘Ice Age Flood Power
to Wind Power’ planned Sept. 26
When you are driv
ing down the road to an
appointment or meeting,
do you see what you are
looking at? Do you really
see what you are looking
at? What is that gravel bar
doing on top of that basalt
rock below Lexington> It
looks live river rock and
that’s exactly what it is.
How did it get there and
when?
Did you see that
giant boulder o f granite
out in the middle o f the
desert between Boardman
and Lexington? Where did
it come from? The answer
will come when you hop
on the Ice Age tour bus,
September 26 and hear an
explanation from the mem
ber of the Ice Age Institute
located in the Tri-Cities.
Did the Columbia
River overflow its banks
into the John Day River?
Those gigantic wind tur
bines—just how big are
they and how many homes
will they provide electric
ity? Have you ever walked
around one of them?
Who said the “Old
West was dead”? Visit a
genuine and famous work
ing cow ranch. “Nothing
fancy, just plain hard work,”
Volleyball camp held at HHS
said the manager of the Ce
dar Springs Ranch.
The Morrow Coun
ty Historical Society invites
you to participate in a “His
torical Ice Age Flood Power
to Wind Power” tour. You
will see the remains of the
Ice Age flood that engulfed
this region millions of years
ago. The tour will be held
on Saturday, September 26,
at 10 a.m. A 14-passenger
bus from Heppner and a 24-
passenger bus from Board-
man will be provided by
the Senior Services. “We
will learn the history of the
wonders of the ice age that
most of us look at, but never
see,” said a spokesperson.
More information
will come later, but those
planning to attend are ad
vised to sign up now be
cause “when the limited
seating is gone, it’s gone,”
said the spokesperson. “It’s
a chance of a lifetime, all
for the cost of a box lunch
and a free wine tasting hour
at Wheatridge Winery in the
Nook just off 1-84.” Con
tact the Historical Society,
