The Shipping News

Astoria version, that is. We are continually fascinated by the variety of shipping we see coming up and down the Columbia River. Every weekday morning, the community radio station presents a 12-minute show -- The Columbia River Ship Report -- describing that day's comings and goings, and answering questions that listeners submit about the ships and their doings. The Ship Report is sponsored by the Columbia River Maritime Museum, which is the riverside building with the arced roofline in the picture above, taken from our window.
