The Maurers visited Oregon in 1940. Notably, they

• pulled fitful silver trout from Lost Lake
• looked upon stupifying Columbia R. Gorge at Women’s Forum or thereabouts
• lodged themselves in cluster of cabins; enjoyed healthful effects of alpine climate
• stood dreamily on beach at Manzanita or thereabouts; dug clams halfheartedly; poked around wrecked, masted ship
• ran in sunshine (young girl, the one dressed like amelia airhart)
• practiced walking like Douglas Macarthur
• drove Model A Fords on the beach
• Held snowball fight at foot of Palmer Glacier, Mt. Hood
• wore skirts, headscarves, bobby socks and mary janes; presumably they hiked thusly from Timberline Lodge to Palmer Glacier
• Continued to maraud in sunlight (amelia airhart); dressed sensibly in shorts and button shirt
• arrived at magnificent Timberline Lodge
• inspected rododendrons on mountain path
• played cards in camp
