Astoria and Fort Stevens

My parents came the first part of June. We took them to visit Astoria and also Fort Stevens.

Grandpa giving Christian one of his famous bear hugs!

The first thing we did was to take the trolley to see all the historical sites of Astoria

Astoria Bridge - It is the longest continuous truss bridge in North America.

We stopped and visited Fort Stevens. When I told Christian that we were going to visit Fort Stevens, Christian thought we were going to visit his uncles house. It took me a while, to register why he kept saying uncle Steven.
