The Willamette Falls Locks

After our quick escape we went to the locks about 2 miles from our house. This is a really cool place the kids really like to go there. On slow days the guys even let the kids push the buttons to open up the gates. One day we will take the kids through them it takes about 40 minutes each way so we haven't braved that one yet.

I knew there was something that made these falls unique and so I stole this from the site (the museum was already closed)

Opened January 1, 1873, the Willamette Falls Locks are the oldest continually operating multi-chambered locks in the United States.
