Your round-trip ticket to the wildest, wackiest, most outrageous people, places, and things the Beaver State has to offer!Whether you’re a born-and-raised Oregonian, a recent transplant, or just passing through, Oregon Curiosities will have you laughing out loud as Harriet Baskas takes you on a rollicking tour of the strangest sides of the Beaver State. • Meet the lovely but carnivorous Darlingtonia californica lily and the ghostly Bandage Man from logger’s heaven. • Discover the Best Funky Food Show, where Jell-O is the medium with the message; the Silvy 250, a race in which love seats and recliners get rolling; and an infamous lighthouse known as “Terrible Tilly,” where only the dead are welcome to stay.• Experience a town with streets full of frogs, an eight-state mac ’n’ cheese contest, and the unsettling Oregon Vortex where gravity goes giddy.
