I recently checked and that ferry still seems to be in service.....

Too early to know if this will go on as planned, but I'd sure be willing to take it in..

The Screen Door, Broder Cafe, and Canard are some of the many places I hope to sample!

McMenamins UFO Festival Thursday–Saturday May 14–16, 2020

Every May, thousands flock to McMinnville, a quiet Willamette Valley town located an hour southwest of Portland, to the famous three-day McMenamins UFO Festival. Second in popularity only to the UFO festival in Roswell, New Mexico, Oregon’s annual celebration features a UFO parade, expert speakers, live (free!) music indoors and out, a 5K run, a pet costume contest, events with the featured speakers, a ‘landing party’ with vendor booths and more. Founded in 1999, this UFO Festival began at the historic McMenamins Hotel Oregon property as a way to honor the famous 1950 Trent sighting in the area, and has evolved into an epic celebration of all things extraterrestrial.

This is still being advertised and even after doing a google search I couldn't find out if it's been canceled or not. Anyone around that area know for sure if it's still on?

I do believe Portland will be the first road trip I'll take when we're allowed to travel freely.........
