The Evergreen Aviation Museum is home to the Spruce Goose created by Howard Hughes, they have an SR-71, and some other cool things.
The Evergreen Aviation firearms collection was added in 2009. I last visited the museum in the summer of 2007, before the guns went on display. From a relative old marine who saw them before the gun museum opened, hear the huge amount of varied guns the Smith family has is incredible. Especially automatic weapons. The Smith's own the world's largest privately-held collection of machine guns. More information about the gun display is at:

Has anyone seen the Evergreen Aviation Gun display? If so, please share your experience - and add your favorite and least favorite thing about your visit.
On Tuesday 4/12/11 The Evergreen Aviation Museum will find out if it gets one of three remaining space shuttles being retired. More about their space shuttle hopes is at:

The three shuttles are up for sale because the NASA program is officially being shut down:
