Stolen Tillamook Cheese Vans Found

In this undated photo provided by the Manteca (Calif.) Police Department are three Tillamook Cheese vans that were stolen Saturday, July 12. Police in Central California are searching for three bright orange Tillamook cheese vans that were stolen over the weekend. Manteca police say the restored Volkswagen minibuses, worth $100,000 each, vanished early Saturday from a hotel parking lot. They were secured in a trailer pulled by a Ford F-350 pickup that also painted orange. Police say the minivans had stopped in Manteca on a tour promoting the Oregon-based Tillamook County Creamery Association’s dairy products. Story here. (AP Photo/Manteca Police Dept.)

Question: I visit the Oregon Coast at least once a year. But I've never stopped at the Tillamook Cheese Factory on H101. Have you?
