Along highway 101 from Northern California to Tacoma Wa. you will come across town after town with it's local roadside chainsaw carvers hawking their goods to the tourists. It's all the same stuff. Big bears , little bears, sea gulls, salmon, and once in a while , a Bigfoot. But there's a guy up the road from us that does some really unusual stuff. I've kept an eye on his place thinking I might just catch a glimpse some day of something really cool. One day, a couple of weeks ago, it happened. After poking around a bit we found a couple more Tikis. A few miles up the road in Newport, we dropped by the historic bayfront. The Ripley's Believe it or Not Museum has a jungle theme at the entrance. A few months ago this fine specimen was unrecognizable, because it was covered in ivy vines. So that's just 3 towns in a row on Oregons hwy 101. Not too bad. It makes me wonder if there's any more around our green and soggy state.
