Oregon Roadside Attractions, presented in Google Earth

by Rick in Oregon,Various,Vintage

Which state has the smallest park? The world’s largest wooden airplane? A memorial bathroom? 25 miles of ridable model trains? A volcano within city limits? The only Velvet Painting museum in the world? Giant Shoes, bowling pin, rabbit and a fishing pole? The world’s shortest river? The largest Glockenspiel in the US? And history museums – with two headed animals and the skulls of the last men hanged in the US?

Oregon does!

And even more intriguing, Oregon now officially has the largest ball of twine! It’s not currently on display, but hopefully such an important achievement soon will be.

Find out where they’re all located in my handy Oregen Roadside Attractions Google Earth plugin.

Future versions of this file will be added to my Historic Oregon Google Earth Plugin
