Evergreen Airport Closes Forever

Re: Evergreen Airport Closes Forever

I just stumbled on this forum tonight. A business trip took me out from Dallas to Vancouver the first week of August. One of my first stops was Evergreen. I just stood there at the gate for a longtime. As you can tell from my handle, Wally, Evergreen and those old T-Crafts meant a lot to me. I am sure glad that when I moved in 95, I asked Wally if I could take down my shirttale and keep it since I was headed to Texas. It was the last time I saw him.

I stayed at Skamania Lodge while I was there, they have the Jenny in a Museum adjacent to the Lodge. I hate that it is so far from home, but it is a nice building and the folks around Stevenson appreciate it.

Taildraggin' forever!

John: If you're wondering where the Kids are these days, I saw one stuffing himself into the front hole of a '39 Fleet last year @ the McMinnville NWAAC fly in. Judgeing from his voice crackle and lack of facial hair, he was just the right age.And the old guy in the rear seat was just there to swing the prop @ switches "hot' and to bitch at him at the top of his lungs.
