Uncle Dave's Incredible Shrinking Horse Story — and an IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT ...
from Offbeat Oregon History podcast · host Finn J.D. John
A special weekend episode to announce a live history show on Friday, May 29, from 7 to 9 p.m. at the Polk County Fairgrounds in Rickreall! It's a fundraiser so it costs $10; we're trying to help save the Fairgrounds, which is threatened with closure due to electrical issues that they can't afford to fix. We scheduled it for the weekend AFTER Memorial Day so it won't clash with anyone's vacation plans! Also, a short reading from the Lockley Files, the recollections and a tall tale from an old stagecoach driver, as told to legendary Oregon Journal columnist Fred Lockley: 'Honey, I shrunk the horse team!'
