Coming Soon: Goonies Museum

Our loyal readers probably remember the post we did back in June about the Goonies landmarks in and around the Astoria, Oregon area (click here if you need a refresher). Well we have an exciting update...Clatsop County is giving the iconic jail from the movie to the county Historical Society, which plans to turn the old jail into a Goonies Museum! The museum is set to open in June 2010 just in time to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the Goonies movie (wow, that makes us feel old). The museum will also pay tribute to other movies film in Oregon. Here is a link to the original KGW story that brightened our day, and was really like an early Christmas present. Thanks Santa for the Goonies Museum, it's just what we always wanted!!
