I imagine that most of you have seen the movie The Shining (think REDRUM...that oughta jog your memory). To our delight, Timberline Lodge, which was used for the outside shots in The Shining was located 6 miles up the mountain from our resort in Gov't. Camp. While Adam was tending to his best man duties on Saturday, I travelled up the mountain with some friends. Unfortunately, it was extremely cloudy/foggy and the ski lift was closed, but I did get some fun shots of the lodge itself.
The building is quite old and was built by the WPA (Works Progress Administration). It was completed in 1937. For more great pics, go to www.timberlinelodge.com .
The artwork and carvings in the lodge were beautiful. This is just one examble on a staircase.
When we went back to the lodge on Sunday in better weather (more pictures next post) Adam couldn't resist getting his hands on the "Here's Johnny" axe. Scary!
