Last night we took a break from our torn up house and headed down to the White Salmon Library for an hour of Woody Guthrie music presented by The Wanderers. What a treat! The room was packed, SRO. We got the last seats.
Carl Allen and Bill Murlin specialize in the Columbia River songs written by Guthrie when he was in Portland in May 1941. Their program includes quotes, anecdotes, and little known songs. Allen does a first person presentation of Guthrie, including a Q and A session at the end. Very entertaining.
Wednesday night we went to a geology talk and slide show on the Ice Age Floods. Lloyd picked up Bruce Bjornstad's new book On the Trail of the Ice Age Floods: A Geological Field Guide to teh Mid Columbia Basin at the book signing. Now we can do an Ice Age Floods road trip.
Plenty to do in this little town. Lovin' it.
