t’s been 100 years since Ralph and Belle Ainsworth Jenkins purchased, for $7,000, a 68-acre site on the northwest slope of Aloha’s Cooper Mountain. The Jenkins Estate, owned and operated by the Tualatin Hills Park & Recreation District the past 37 years, provides visitors a glimpse of the early 20th century genteel lifestyle.

“By restoring and maintaining the Estate and its buildings, THPRD has preserved a small piece of a bygone era,� said Lynda Myers, Jenkins Estate supervisor.
“Visitors always mention the tranquility and beauty of the Estate. Walking the grounds, a person can feel miles away from civilization and the cares of everyday life.� With manicured gardens and a collection of historic buildings – including a sevenbedroom Main House the Jenkinses built to emulate a royal English hunting lodge – Jenkins Estate today looks much the way it did when Belle Ainsworth Jenkins (the youngest daughter of steamboat magnate J.C. Ainsworth) hosted lavish galas on the property. After the death of Belle Jenkins in 1963, the Franklin Service Corporation acquired the Estate. The company’s plans to build a subdivision were thwarted by an inability to get water and sewer services to the property.

A Jedi surprise from dad for boy’s fifth birthday By FOX 12 Staff A Beaverton boy’s Star Wars-themed birthday party became a viral hit on the Internet, all thanks to a special visit from a certain Jedi. Danny Kiebler’s parents decided to invite a few extra friends to the party, and they asked Portland’s Cloud City Garrison, the local Star Wars fan club where set-worthy costumes are mandatory at all events, to help spring the surprise. One special guest stood out in a video of the surprise that was posted to YouTube: Danny’s father, Col. Rob Kiebler. “This was a small token of our respect for him,â€? said Steve Squire, of the Cloud City Garrison. “We get dismissed as... nerds in costumes a lot, but we get to do a lot of positive things for the community.â€?

Dressed as a Jedi and accompanied by six “Star Warsâ€? characters, Kiebler
strolled into a Portland restaurant and revealed his true identity, much to the surprise of Danny, who hugged his father. “When he latched onto his dad, we didn’t know if he was ever going to let go,� Squire said. It was a birthday party with enough “force� to last through Kiebler’s next deployment in Belgium. The video posted to YouTube was viewed more than 450,000 times. The Cloud City Garrison raises thousands of dollars for charity and gives special moments - like Kiebler’s homecoming - a little movie magic.

Even though she withdrew her candidacy before the actual election, she still received 42,000 votes.

Pesto-Turkey Grilled Cheese Sandwich
started a little potted herb garden on our balcony this year and it has been most convenient for my cooking experiments/adventures. I have many herbs that are thriving this summer but Basil has got to be my favorite: Sweet Basil, Greek Basil and Thai Holy Basil. While watering my favorite herbs a few days ago, I suddenly thought 'PESTO'. I didn't have any pine nuts in my pantry but I did have a jar of Marcona Almonds that I've been dying to use up so I went ahead and made the Pesto using the almonds and a blend of the Sweet Basil and Greek Basil. Just experimenting. It turned out great! Sandwich Ingredients t 2 slices Sourdough Bread t 2-3 Tbsp. of homemade Pesto (recipe below) t 2 slices of cheese (I used Havarti) t 4 slices of Turkey t olive oil (or butter if you prefer)

Directions (Sandwich) 1. Spread about 1 Tbsp. of homemade Pesto to each slice of bread. 2. Add 1 slice of cheese and 2 slices of turkey to each slice of bread, . Press together gently. 3. Heat 1 Tbsp. olive oil in a frying pan over med. low heat. Add the sandwich to the oil and cook until bread is golden brown. Press down on the sandwich lightly, then ip the sandwich over and cook until second side is golden brown.
Homemade Pesto Ingredients t 6 cups (loosely packed) of Sweet Basil - I used a blend of Sweet Basil and Greek Basil t ½ cup grated Parmesan Cheese t ½ cup nuts (Pine Nuts if you prefer but I used Marcona Almonds) t Ÿ-½ cup olive oil Directions (Pesto Sauce) 4. Pulse garlic, cheese, and half the basil in food processor until chopped. Scrape down the sides and add the remaining basil and continue to blend. 5. Slowly drizzle in olive oil until everything is the consistency of a pesto. (This makes about 1 cup of pesto. It can be stored for up to a week in the refrigerator or you could freeze it for several months)

he Hermiston Melon Company is a family-run business that is owned and operated by Bob and Rachelle Walchli. They take pride in what they grow, and offer unconditional dedication to their customers. Every Saturday from mid-July through September, they travel 3½ hours from Hermiston, Oregon to provide their ripe watermelons and cantaloupes to the devoted enthusiasts at the Beaverton and Hillsboro Farmer’s Markets! We asked the question that everyone wants to know. How do you pick the perfect melon: We usually like to see sugar
sap coming out of the cut end of the watermelon. Rule of thumb: the darker the sugar sap, the sweeter the melon. Also, the larger the belly (white, creamy spot on the bottom of the melon) the riper the melon, the longer it has been on the vine. If a melon passes those tests the PRVW LPSRUWDQW WHVW DQG WKH Ĺ…QDO test is the sound of the melon. You have to hold the melon to make the appropriate determination. If you pat it and it has a vibration all the way through the melon and you will be able to feel it vibrate to the hand that is holding the melon.

Beaverton was called Beaverdam by the early settlers and before that, 'Place of the Beaver' by the native Atfalati tribe. What about other places?
H

Beaverton History Center Presentation Sept. 11 (7:00-8:30pm)
For Butteville Academy’s living history program, Ellen Crauthers, a former homeschool teacher, portrays a pioneer teacher called “Miss Elliott�. Students are introduced to the etiquette of the 1863 school day, learn about the history of our flag, and work on arithmetic problems from a text actually used during the 1860’s. Ellen is just finishing her fifth year as the schoolmarm.
Like the other living history interpreters dotting the Champoeg museums, she is enthusiastic about showing and telling history in a way that makes our pioneer history come to life. For our September meeting, Ellen will recreate a pioneer class, as “Miss Elliott� in period clothing, similar to the one portrayed at the Butteville Academy. Attendees will be “students� for our classroom.
Presentations are held at the Beaverton History Center 12412 SW Broadway St Admission is FREE 'PS NPSF JOGPSNBUJPO Beaverton History Center 503-430-5231

ith so many choices for “Speeder� Housing in the Beaverton area, I thought I’d put together a guide to help you navigate which housing option might be right for you or your loved one. Retirement Communities: Any housing arrangement designed exclusively for seniors, generally those aged 55 or 65 and over. Housing varies widely, from apartment-style living to freestanding homes. You may also hear the terms independent living, retirement home, senior housing, and senior apartments. Assisted Living Facilities: In general, assisted living is a housing option for those who need help with some activities of daily living, including minor help with medications. Some assisted living facilities provide apartment-style living with scaled-down kitchens, while others provide single or shared rooms. You may also hear the terms residential care and ALF.
Nursing Home: This is normally the highest level of care for older adults outside of a hospital. Nursing homes provide what is called custodial care, including getting in and out of bed, and providing assistance with feeding, bathing, and dressing. Skilled nursing care is available on site, usually 24 hours a day. Other medical professionals such as occupational or physical therapists are also available. You may also hear the term skilled nursing Continuing Care Retirement Communities (CCRCs): These offer service and housing packages that allow access to independent living, assisted living, and skilled nursing facilities in one community. If residents begin to need help with activities of daily living, for example, they can transfer to an assisted living or skilled nursing facility on the same site. Memory Care: Communities are licensed VSHFLĹ…FDOO\ IRU WKRVH GLD-

T
he City of Beaverton recently awarded Bev Ecker the 2012 Individual Service to Beaverton award as well as Catalyst PartnerVKLSV DV WKH QRQ SURĹ…W RUJDQL]Dtion award last month. I recently had the chance to sit down with Bev Ecker and Shawn Mitchell, the Executive Director of Catalyst Partnerships, to hear their story and how we, as a community, can stand up and play a part in improving our community for residents in need. Their goal is to “Inspire People, Build Hope and Nurture Communityâ€?. What began as one neighbor helping out another neighbor in September of 2007 has now turned into something that now offers so much hope , love and inspiration to Beaver-
ton residents in need. It started with Shawn’s neighbor needing KHOS Ņ[LQJ WKH WRLOHW DQG WKH LPpact that it had on Shawn that he wanted to become more involved in helping others. Catalyst Partnerships began as a grassroots movement consisting of a few families and individuals who simply wanted to help their neighbors with home repairs and remodeling. 7KH\ UHJLVWHUHG DV D QRQ SURŅW and received IRS status as a 501(c)3 Public Charity in March 2010. They now focus on home repairs and remodeling to help out the elderly and disabled people, low income families and those IDFLQJ ŅQDQFLDO KDUGVKLS Together with Bev Ecker,
Catalyst Partnerhips recently renovated a home that is now being used as a Safe Haven home for abused women and children. With Bev’s generosity and partnership, the Safe Haven Home is now being run under the umbrella of Catalyst

Partnerships. Bev is personally involved in the mentoring of woman who come to live at Safe Haven, to help them reestablish their independence and get a fresh start. Both Bev and Shawn emphasized how important the volunteers were to making all things possible – from the hundreds of volunteers that donated their time and the supportive organizations that donated supplies such as Home Depot, Habitat for Humanity Restore, and Love INC to name a few . If you are interested in providing assistance with Safe Haven, they are looking for volunteers for lawn care, exterior painting or help with child care. Other items needed on an ongoing basis are food and staples for the home such as toilet paper, cleaning supplies and detergent - Please contact Bev Ecker directly at 971235-3316. Thank you Bev, Shawn and the team at Catalyst Partnerships for everything you do to make our Beaverton community a better place to live.

Police were called to a daycare where a three-year-old was resisting a rest. I used to be addicted to soap, but I'm clean now. Pencils could be made with erasers at both ends, but what would be the point? When a clock is hungry it goes back four seconds.
