Pendleton Oregon

Our trip to Oregon ended with us stopping in Pendleton and seeing Grandma Severe and Aunt Pam and the kids cousin Caymen. While we were there we had the opportunity to take all the kids on the tour of the Pendleton Undergrounds. Kids under the age of 6 are not allowed on the tour but because Grandma Heileson (Gloria) was taking us on the tour it was okay. To keep the kids happy we gave them all large suckers. I am not sure if that was a good thing or not. The kids were so sticky that every 20 seconds we were wiping their hands. The Pendleton underground tour is so worth seeing. You are taking underground to where the bars were during the prohibition. There was also the Chinese laundry facilities, the butchers where the best meat in town was kept, the Chinese prisons and more. It was so cool to see the glass in the sidewalks reflecting down underground and then to see the bullet holes on the ceiling. We also went up to the brothels. It was funny to hear Grandma change the wording to make sense to the kids and to not give too many details. Every year the underground does comes to life where the mannequins are replaced with real actors. I would love to be a part of that one year. We also loved seeing Great Grandma Severe and letting her see the kids. It was a really great way to end our trip in Oregon.
