Western Antique Aeroplane & Automobile Museum

While staying in Mt. Hood Village, one Saturday, Barbara and I along with our friends Keith and Janice took another drive to the town of Hood River to see the Western Antique Aeroplane & Automobile Museum (WAAAM). On this day they were also having a car show and we could vote on our favorite cars from those on display. You can also take car rides in the vintage cars and a flight over the Columbia River in a biplane. While Keith and Janice to a ride in a biplane, Barbara and I checked out the vintage aeroplanes. This is a fun place to spend an afternoon enjoying a wonderful vintage collection of planes and cars while learning a little history.

Wasn’t this car in the TV show Happy Days?
