Drive from Aberdeen Walmart to Hoquiam Library; Washington
Aberdeen and Hoquiam figure prominently in Nevil Shute's post-Apocalyptic novel On the Beach.
I copied and pasted this story into the video as well. The drive was sort of boring, so I decided to use the road more as background for posting the plot of the story, which I got off Wikipedia.
The nuclear threat may not be as scary now, since the Soviet Union collapsed in 1989. Thank Charlie Wilson. But you can imagine living in the moment with all the uncertainty going on at the time. We currently live with similar daily uncertainty ourselves.
The story is supposed to be relevant to the area. I think the area looks nice and a nuclear disaster here may not be so much of a threat.

Tony Lund Memorial
June 6, 1940 - July 6, 2015
On Monday, July 6, in the comfort of his home and surrounded by his family, our loving husband, dad, grandpa, son and brother, Tony Lund, passed away. Pancreatic cancer destroyed his body but not his spirit. He’s gone fishing until we meet again. Anthony Verne (Tony) Lund was born June 6, 1940, in Minot, N.D., to Verne and Dorothy (Stenson) Lund. His greatest loves were his family, friends and fishing.
Tony attended Franklin and Highline high schools in Seattle and graduated in 1958. In March 1959, while working for Boeing, he welcomed the arrival of his “beautiful daughter” Tami Garrow Mertz. In November 1960, his beloved son Tom was born. In 1964, he left a good job in the city (at Paccar) to work for Lamb Grays Harbor as a production illustrator so he could be closer to the rivers. He fished every weekend, weekends turned into leaves of absence, until he was fishing more than working, so he quit. He and friend Joe Sudman bought the boat Karen Sue and commercial fished in Washington and Alaska.
In 1972 the family moved from Chenois Gardens to Axford Prairie and bought the Red Rooster. The business grew to include a tavern, grocery store and the best burgers on the Peninsula. Tony was known to give credit to anyone who asked for it. In spite of this, the business was a success. In 1978 the family sold the Rooster and moved to Ocean Shores where Tony built houses and fished some more. He went back to Alaska, and then to work at Oval Strapping in 1981. He retired in 2000.
In 1986, he met the love of his life, Bunni (Bernice) Babcock. They were married in Hoquiam and lived there until 2004 when they moved to Central Park across the street from brother and sister-in-law Dan and Carol West, whose love, company and support were and are priceless. Tony and Bunni spent most of the 1990s building their troller, The Swan. When she was finished, the couple sailed The Swan to Alaska with a fleet of fishing buddies.
They had a full, happy life together traveling, fishing, hunting, clam digging and playing with grandkids. They spent many vacations at daughter Jackie’s ranch in Houston, Texas, where Tony complained about the heat, but he loved the place. His kids and grandkids adored him, and he was so proud of them.
After the tragedy of 9/11, Tony volunteered as a driver for the VA, shuttling disabled veterans from all over the Harbor to their medical appointments. He managed to squeeze in a few rounds of golf while hanging around American Lake, and lived long enough to watch the U.S. Open, proudly sporting his Chambers Bay swag.
Tony loved floating the rivers, catching (and later, releasing) a fine fish, whiskey on his front porch, women of all ages, and his family more than anything. “Family is forever” was his mantra, his promise and his legacy.
He is survived by his loving wife Bunni; children Tami Garrow Mertz (John), Tom Lund, Jimmy Babcock (Mary Jo), and Jackie Babcock Hieber (Jeff); grandchildren Willie Garrow (Chelsea), Katie Garrow, Angie Cornett, Nikki Cornett, Colton Hieber, Dakota Hieber, Matt Babcock, Brandon Babcock, Ronald Anderson and Robin Anderson; great-grandchildren Theo Garrow and Alexis Babcock; brother Mike Lund (Tammy); sister Debbie Sandoval; mother Dorothy Lund, mother-in-law Betty Moore, and many other close friends and relatives. He was preceded in death by his father Verne and brother Gary Lund.
A celebration of Tony’s life is set for Tuesday, July 28, from 2 to 5 p.m. at the Rotary Log Pavilion in Aberdeen. Please visit facebook.com/TonyLundMemorial to share a picture, a song or a memory. In lieu of flowers, donations in Tony’s memory may be made to the VFW, 105 E. Heron St. Aberdeen, WA 98520; the Union Gospel Mission P.O. Box 859, Aberdeen; or your favorite ACS Relay for Life team (or ACS P.O. Box 22718, Oklahoma City, OK 73123). His ashes will be scattered in Yellowstone National Park, his favorite place on earth other than home, and on a float trip down the Hump. The family is deeply grateful to Harbors Home Health & Hospice, Dr. Henry Li of the Polyclinic, daughter-in-law Mary Jo Babcock, and all who wrote, called and visited. Fish on, Tony. We love you.

SR 6: Raymond to Chehalis, WA via Dashcam 051814
This has always been a favorite drive of mine, State Route 6 between US 101 at Raymond and I-5 at Chehalis, WA is a highway that, unlike the recent US 99 in 1944 video I shot, this is pretty much the same as it was in 1944, only the name has changed, whis was PSH (Primary State Highway) 12 of the old Washington State highway system, that was changed in the early 1960's. Much of this route is adjacent to the old Northern Pacific (Burlington Northern) branch line that once served Willapa Bay and is now in the process of becoming a recreation trail for Lewis and Pacific Counties, while the active railroad tracks crossed 3 times from S. Fork Chehalis River to Chehalis is the Centralia - Chehalis Railroad, a steam powered tourist line. One interesting and unexpected thing happened about 3/4 of the way through this video: There were a group of Studebakers on a drive in the opposite direction I was travelling west of Adna. Although SR 6 ends at Interstate 5 today, I went on into Chehalis and ended at Market Blvd., where PSH 12 would have ended at US 99 back in the day!

Grass Whistling in a Bird Sanctuary near Hoquiam, WA
I decided to relax in a bird sanctuary for a little bit. I didn't see too many birds, so decided to make some of my own noises instead. I hope I didn't scare too many of the birds away.
This is a nice isolated sport that is outside of the city of Hoquiam. I believe the Dept. of the Interior is in charge of maintenance here. They have done a nice job keeping the place clean. Or maybe we can thank the bird watchers for being naturally respectful of the area. Too many times nice parks get trashed by inconsiderate folks.
Virtual Drive to Raymond From Aberdeen, WA; Nice Scenery.
This is a simple drive to Raymond. I have no real reason for going except for a new scenery. The city looks great though. I can't complain. They have a lot of interesting features to look at. It is very commercial.
There are a lot of older buildings from the days the city was larger.
