The Town of Middleton Revealed!

CLICK TO ENLARGE

Now we know what Middleton Oregon USA looked like from the air. The place must have looked a lot like Sherwood, except that the streets were laid out long before there was a railroad. Harrison Street, Pearl Street, and Main Street (Middleton Road) are still traveled today.

Robin Hood Festival Video

Historian and Former Mayor Clyde List interviews Magician and former City Councilor Julian Thornton about his current career as King Richard Lion Heart. We would assume Thornton has gone completely mad, except that everyone else in the picture is suited up as well. It's a publicity photo shoot for the Robin Hood Festival (which doesn't happen until the 3rd week end in July). The conversation took place at Stella Olsen Park Saturday May 9. See the Robin Hood Festival Web Page for more photos.

Sherwood Oregon as the Brits see Us!

People Around the World are asking about this curious little town in the U.S. that makes such a big deal of the Robin Hood Legend.

View from the Heritage Center

Ah yes, Sherwood in May. Robin Hood would have loved it. According to the Sunday Oregonian: "A short but severe thunderstorm Saturday afternoon killed one person, cut power to about 30,000 people, capsized two sailboats, clogged traffic and knocked over trees across the Portland area." --May 3, 2009
