Ann Reynolds-Pearl, left, of Port Townsend and Joy Ruddell of Bodega Bay, Calif., along with husbands David Rudell, pointing, and Mack Pearl, look closely at an exact-scale reproduction of the Spirit of St. Louis on display Thursday at the Port Townsend Aero Museum. Built in Burlington, Wash., by John Norman with JNE Aviation, it is considered the definitive reproduction of the historic Spirit of St. Louis that Charles Lindbergh flew across the Atlantic in 1927 to become the first person to fly solo across that body of water to land outside Paris, France. One of only five in existence, the original is at the Smithsonian Museum in Washington, D.C. This version of the Spirit of St. Louis will be on permanent display in the Port Townsend museum.

Janine Ledford, right, the executive director of the Makah Museum in Neah Bay, received a donation of authentic Makah baskets from Marcia Logan. The three-basket set made of cedar bark and bear grass were judged to be in good condition. They were estimated to be 70 to 75 years old. The baskets were originally in the possession of Logan’s grandparents Albert and Norma Gustafson of Port Angeles, who died decades ago. The baskets have been treasured for all those years. Logan decided to take them to the museum, as they were handmade by Makah members of the past. (Rebekah Monette)
