Description
The first tour of the year is Saturday, June 4, meeting at 10 a.m. at the Matlock Museum. After visiting the museum, we will caravan to the Grove Cemetery, then to A.J. Pavola's picturesque home on the Decker Creek.
Bring sack lunch and drinks for this stop. Then, it's on to the Tornow homestead and down to Montesano and up the Wynooche Valley Road to the Running Anvil Carriage Museum, where the Tornow buggy is located, among a variety of other carriages and an incredible matchbook collection.
The final stop is 26.9 miles north to the shootout site, where Tornow was killed. Books will be available for sale at the museum. Cash or check preferred.
