Oregon Curiosities : Quirky Characters, Roadside Oddities and Other Offbeat Stuff

This comprehensive, authoritative, and highly entertaining volume is your perfect guide to the wildest, wackiest, and most outrageous people, places, and things the Beaver State has to offer. In "Oregon Curiosities", you'll meet Miss Electricity and (maybe) the ghostly Bandage Man, visit the lighthouse called Terrible Tilly, discover the world's oldest - but not smelliest - pair of shoes, the beautiful but carnivorous cobra lily, experience an interstate macaroni-and-cheese contest, and the world's largest toga party. If you are tired of wandering around museums and other bogstandard tourist traps, then this guide to the unusual side life will be your invaluable, and unforgettable, companion.
