For a listing of Museums in Oregon as mentioned in the message below by
Mary Ames Sheret, go to the web site:

        http://www.peak.org/~lewisb/oregonmus.html

I have posted the entire list as published by the Oregon Museums
Association in 1996.  Oregon is a great place and the people who work in
and support our museums are as nice as the ones in your state.  Hope you
leave time in your trip to visit us.
