Tillamook Air Museum in Tillamook, Oregon.

What: Tillamook Air Museum, Tillamook, Oregon. It’s an interesting display of military aviation from a period when our skies were patrolled by U.S. Navy blimps. Open daily from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.; admission is $9.50 for adults with discounts for military, seniors, children, and groups of 10 or more.
How to Get There:
Take the Oregon Coast Highway (US 101) from either the north or the south (it’s one of America’s best rides). The museum is just a few minutes south of Tillamook on the east side of the road. You can’t miss it.
Best Kept Secrets:
Try the Air Base Café’s burger (you won’t be disappointed), and don’t miss seeing pieces of the original Hindenburg dirigible on display in the wartime artifacts area.
Avoid:
Missing Tillamook. It’s an interesting little town.
