Blimp over Turnaround - Seaside, Oregon

This place still exists today. It's neat to see how the turnaround stood up to the wear and tear of time and how people got more weight on. I assume this was taken in the 1940s judging by the cars, clothing and the image itself.

Is it a bird? Is it a plane? No it's a blimp. Calm down.
Then again, it could be some time before the Hindenburg since there's a blimp flying around... Who knows. Seaside, Oregon is a neat little place in Clatsop county with about 6.500 people. It was founded in the 1800s. The name comes from Seaside House which was an old summer resort built by Ben Holladay, a railroad monarch.
