Judson recently became fascinated with a ferry in one of his many
"Things That Go" books. Nate decided it'd be fun to take the Buena
Vista ferry, which is only about fifteen minutes from our house. I've
only ever taken ferries in Washington over large bodies of water, so I
couldn't imagine what a ferry across the Willamette would be like. The
whole experience cracked me up. Originally I asked Nate how he knew
when the ferry ran. I was thinking it'd be every half-hour or
something. Ha! I think it just crosses the river whenever someone
shows up. It was actually quite busy that day, because there was a
garden tour going on in Buena Vista. (I didn't even know there was a
town by that name around here.) Our $3 ride took two minutes tops, and
then we had a fun picnic at a little boat launch, which was also quite
busy.
