Nuclear power plant

 

 

The other week we went to the coast (which coincided with the latest snowfall in 20 years in Oregon). Driving up by St Helens, we came across the Trojan nuclear power plant. The cooling tower was a landmark for a long time, but it was unfortunately torn down last year (non-oregonians are probably most familiar with it as the model for the power plant in the Simpsons). We decided to eat our thai food there and take a break. There is a nature reserve around the power plant, and it is full of very aggressive geese, that hissed at us and wanted our food. We shared some white rice as a compromise.
