Oregon is a great place to live! It's also full of great history. Many historical locations in Oregon are noted with large wooden signs describing what took place in those areas. These signs are very old and are starting to show their age. A great project is currently underway to restore them. I urge you to check out their site. I also urge you to visit as many of these historical markers as you possibly can. You may learn something about Oregon that you never knew before!
To help you locate these sites, a Moonrize project has been created to place geocaches at many, if not all of these historical sites.
