O is for ocean, ochre, and oatcakes

 

 

O is for ooooooo

 

 and Oregon

 

 

O is for ocean, so we put baking powder, salt and I think sugar into different glasses to check the buoyancy of the water

 

 

and oatcakes, a recipe I have been trying to figure out from a bakery in Astoria, they're divine. This recipe resulted in a pretty good likeness to them

 O is also good for a fun round of onomatopoeia

and the ochre achieved from lots of turmeric in pickled eggs

Oregon history

Tallest in Oregon

-Willamette falls 

It is the largest waterfall in the Northwestern United States by volume, and the seventeenth widest in Willamette Falls is an important location for many tribes. The abundance of salmon brought tribal members from all over to fish, trade, and interact at the falls and created an economic hub for the region. Despite the removal of natives from the area, the importance of Willamette Falls continues to this day. Each year the Grand Ronde Tribe harvests ceremonial salmon from a fishing platform at Willamette Falls and collects lamprey during the summer. Native Americans from other Tribes, such as Warm Springs, also harvest Pacific Lamprey at the falls. Last year tribes reclaimed the land!

The Willamette Falls Electric Company (later renamed Portland General Electric) was formed in 1888 to build a hydro-electric generation facility at the falls. Four turbine-driven dynamos were built on the east end of the falls. A 14-mile (23-kilometre) long transmission line to Portland was built, becoming the first long-distance transmission of electrical energy in the United States in 1889.[6][7]
