A return to the Long Beach Peninsula, 7-10 August 2023

Emee and I like to visit the Long Beach Peninsula at least once a year. This spit of land juts into the Pacific at the very southwestern edge of Washington. While it’s naturally a tourist attraction, it’s a fairly sleepy one, mostly because Portlanders gravitate to places like Seaside, Cannon Beach, or…

Pacifc County Courthouse, Oysterville, WA, circa 1900.
The catalog record includes an intriguing note “later the home to Peninsula College by 1895.” There is currently a Peninsula College, a junior college in Port Angeles, founded in 1961. Aside from this note I have been unable to come up with any references to a Peninsula College in Oysterville in the late 19th century..
