Flip and his entourage wandered the Old Iron Show, which included black smithing and turned wood demonstrations, old engines powering all manner of machines. Ogled classic cars and a tractors. Yeehaw!
Flip is the star of his own “Green Acres” episode.
Just what is this? We were thinking waterpark ride, kiddie aquarium feature, product of an alcohol-laced daydream? No, it’s a monster sea lion ice chest. Yes, it’s for sale, and if we weren’t on motorcycles and heading the wrong way, Flip almost convinced us to take it home.
The Flipster goes international on this double-decker bus at the Old Steel Show in Tillamook. Catching a ‘Flip’side ride on the London Bridge Lorry.
A little bit of serendipity, which is what this jaunt is really all about. The Old Iron Show was just there, beckoning as we cruised through Tillamook. We had to stop and play a bit. Nice people, cool stuff.
