2002 Tillamook Vacation Memories

Evelyn & Stephanie took some time off in September to fish Tillamook Bay in Oregon with friend and guide Wayne Priddy. It was an 80th Birthday celebration for Evelyn's father and Stephanie's grandfather, Clarence Espeland. It was a four generation outing with Clarence, Evelyn, Stephanie and Stephanie's daughter, Morgan.
