点评:The Flavel House is one of three Astoria OR museums that can be accessed with the purchase of one pass. The price is nominal for all three museums, and together they blend historical views of the Pacific Northwest (PNW), the landscape, the power of the Columbia River, and the many ethnic groups that developed this area, over time. While the Flavel House was opulent for it's time, I am reminded that my modern day technologies make the conveniences of that time period very passe and reminds me to be grateful for being born in this modern era. I turned to my husband after viewing the tin tub and told him that we would have to have him "surgically removed" if he tried to bathe in that small enclosure. It is a wonderful glimpse of economic hierararchy, and privilege, while also learning of the power of the Columbia River/Pacific Ocean confluence, and the birth of bar-piloting/entrepreneurial pursuits.
翻译:弗拉维尔故居是俄勒冈州阿斯托利亚三家只需购买一张通票即可参观的博物馆之一。三家博物馆的门票价格都很实惠,它们融合了太平洋西北地区(PNW)的历史景观、壮丽的景色、哥伦比亚河的潺潺流水,以及随着时间的推移发展这片地区的众多族群。虽然弗拉维尔故居在当时算得上富丽堂皇,但我意识到,现代科技让那个时代的便利变得非常过时,也让我感激自己出生在这个现代时代。看完那个锡桶后,我转向丈夫,告诉他,如果他想在那个狭小的空间里洗澡,就得“手术切除”他。这让我们得以一窥当时的经济等级制度和特权,同时也了解到哥伦比亚河与太平洋交汇处的力量,以及酒吧运营/创业精神的诞生。
