Such a charming town! For several years, I attended the Britt Festival in Jacksonville every summer with my late mother, drove along the I-5 from Salem and made it a point to stop in Oakland on the way there or back. We'd have lunch and ice cream at a lovely historic restaurant right downtown, and it was like stepping back in time. Some wonderful memories connected with your village, and interesting to know about all the anarchists!

Blessings back from East of the Cascades!
