Salvage Sisters Antiques & More

By Kathy Rowland alvage Sisters is a fulfillment of a S life long passion for sisters-in-law Laura Spoerl and Kathy Rowland. Kathy tells the story of their passion. “We have been collecting antiques and re-finishing and re-purposing old worn out pieces of furniture for yearsboth of our homes are a testament. “We had a dream of opening an antique store some day, however, life got in the way and both of us chose other careers. But we never forgot our dream. So when we retired a couple of years ago, we decided to pursue our dream, be it a little different than we first thought.

“With family obligations, property and animals to care for, opening the Salvage Sisters at the Courtyard on 6th was the best of both worlds. We rent a space at the Courtyard along with 25 or so other vendors and work on Thursdays at the store. “We’ve worked our whole life doing what needed to be done, now we can do what we love to do. So, come on down to the Courtyard on 6th in Junction City and find your treasure!” Laura’s phone number is 541-953-1194 Kathy’s phone number is 541-517-3079 Store hours are Monday thru Saturday from 10am to 6pm.

HENTZE FARM — 30045 Hentze Lane, Junction City Serves The Area For More Than 100 Years

Since 1902 five generations of the Hentze family have lived on a small river bottom farm located two miles due east of Junction City, Oregon. The distinctive farming style practiced by the Hentze clan can be traced back to Johan Hentze who immigrated to the USA from the Faroe Islands. For more than a century the unspoken goal—To perpetuate the good life—has driven family members to persevere in the creation of a small but operational farm.

No Matter How You Look At It

Our Wine Is Beautiful 20


Prairie Mountain Wineries Meet The Winemakers!

Steve & Carol Girard

“Benton-Lane Winery’s unique location has allowed us to produce sexy, silky Pinot Noir for two decades. Having come from Napa Valley, we recognized this mild southern Willamette location allowed it to produce more graceful, elegant wines from the Pinot family: Pinot Noir, Pinot Gris, Pinot Blanc and Pinot Chardonnay. Unwilling to entrust these wines to a single palate, our wines at Benton-Lane are created by a dedicated team, with each member tasked with developing the full potential of every nuance in the grape. As a result, Benton-Lane wines have been awarded four Top 100 Wines of The World.”

Robin & Danuta Pfeiffer

“When the French tried to buy our chicken ranch and sheep pasture to grow wine grapes, our family knew there was something special about our 70-acres of south facing slopes. Navigating by the North Star for our north-south rows, in the early 80’s we planted one of the first vineyards in Lane County. Our wines are not sold in stores, but are enjoyed by wine club members and tasting room visitors year-round.”

Jim & Wendy McGavin

“After years of working in information technology, we decided it was time to get back to basics. Initially, our plan was to grow and sell grapes but the business of wine is as seductive as the Walnut Ridge pinots we produce! In 2010, Walnut Ridge became partners in long term grape customer, Sass winery and in 2015 opened the Walnut Ridge tasting room where we feature our Sass label wines. Our passion is to share the results of our efforts, the wine, the food and the terroir!”

Chris & (Sheree) Shown

Gene & Lisa Bennett

“Grape growing is not about romance.It’s about getting your hands dirty; it’s about pruning in a gentle snowfall, hand tying vines to a trellis and planting a nourishing cover crop to replenish the land after harvest.It’s a family affair at Brigadoon: Chris is the vineyard manager, wife Sheree, an excellent cook ,is often deferred to for tastings and blends, son Matt is the winemaker, and son Nick tends to the vineyard seasonally. We love what we do-and it shows in our wine!” “Following a long and exciting career in the construction industry, we began our new careers in beautiful Cheshire, Oregon. What we lacked in vineyard and winemaking experience we have more than made up for with enthusiasm, research, advice from our wine expert neighbors and a lot of hard work. Our 20-acre vineyard of pinot noir makes all the effort worthwhile!”

Dieter & Fridah “Dieter was inspired by the landscape of the Elbe River Vineyards and the Boehm romance of the wine villages which he experienced while he attended University HIGH in Dresden, Germany. His dream came true when he landed in the foothills of PASS the Willamette Valley and created High Pass Vineyards in 1985. We produce WINERY estate Pinot Noir, Pinot Gris, Sauvignon Blanc, and select harvest/ice wine. Our tasting room offers a very intimate wine tasting environment (AprilDecember). From the beginning, we refused to get big!” - Fridah Boehm

It’s Gonna be Wet-Prepare for Winter! “Summer was here and gone, Fall is soon spent, Winter is around the corner so it is time to get your car or truck serviced,” says Bill Morrow, owner of Morrow’s Automotive Inc. “Vehicles take a lot of abuse from a variety of sources: from the road, the weather, and the driver. For everyone’s safety’s sake, a thorough biannual check-up is wise. Call me for an appointment-then bring your car in and I will check the hoses, the belts, the brakes, the coolant, the thermostat, the tires, the oil levels & quality and, not to be forgotten, the air conditioner. Few drivers know that a properly running air conditioner will de-humidify the air that comes out of your defroster, thusly making the defrost more effective not only on your windshield, but also making the air drier so that you can be warmer-this is a good thing when it’s damp in Oregon. Second, servicing your air conditioner has an added benefit of maximizing the life of the equipment, saving you big dollars.” ASE Certified. Bill Morrow does complete work on all automotive and light trucks (6.0 L and 7.3 L Diesel operation & service).

NCAA CHAMPS! by Kirsten Albright, Photos Courtesy UO Sports

Above, left to right: Asst. Coach Van Williams, Zach Foushee, Thomas Lim, Aaron Wise, Edwin Yi, Sulman Raza and Head Coach Casey Martin

This year the Oregon men’s golf team finally got their fairy

tale ending when they won the NCAA men’s golf championship in front of a hometown crowd at Eugene Country Club. Oregon played host for the NCAA men’s golf semifinals and national championship back in June. The men’s golf team, which hadn’t even been in the finals before, never led the semifinals by more than a stroke. Clinching the match was local player Sulman Raza, a graduate of South Eugene High School. Raza, a good player with a shaky short game, made arguably the most important putt

ogy from y-Leading acturers

OSU Sports

Fred Lauina by Kirsten Albright, Photo Courtesy OSU Sports

Junior Fred Lauina has a reputation for being a rock on the

offensive line. But the 316-pound, 6-foot-4 American Samoan is also known for his love of giving back to the community. When he isn’t playing or practicing, Lauina enjoys giving back to the community. He participates heavily in the University’s program “Beyond Football”, which was founded in 2013. Beyond Football, which was funded by an anonymous OSU alum, was created to allow athletes to gain work experience while helping others. Shortly after arriving in Corvallis, Lauina volunteered

of his life that afternoon to send the Ducks to the NCAA championship. But the fairy tale didn’t end there for Raza. Days later during the national championship match, he was paired with Taylor Funk, the son of eight-time PGA Tour winner Fred Funk. They played back and forth through the course, neither one leading by more than a hole. Finally, on their 21st hole of their match, Raza again made a short putt to win the NCAA national championship for the Oregon Ducks. Of course, with play like that Raza is no stranger to success. He began competing in tournaments at the age of eight and even led South Eugene High School to the state prep title in 2012. Sulman Raza He also recently competed in the Junior America’s Cup and Hogan Cup events with fellow Ducks Zach Foushee and Max Carter. Raza intends to return to the team for his final year and is on track to graduate this year with a degree in Landscape Architecture. The men’s golf season gets underway on Monday, September 21 with the Husky Invitational. For the full schedule, go to www.goducks.com.

on a fishing trip down the McKenzie with a local chapter of Candlelighters, a national group that focuses on assisting families dealing with childhood cancer. Lauina and defensive tackle Noke Tago teamed up to help teach six-year-old cancer survivor Cressey Merrill how to fish while being taken down the McKenzie by a seasoned guide. The fishing trip is an annual event held just before fall camp begins. It was started by the Ducks, but today it’s a joint effort involving as many as ten players and 20 drift boats. Earlier this year Lauina, along with 25 other football players, also helped to finish a house for Habitat for Humanity. Lauina drew on his prior construction experience in American Samoa to help paint the house. Lauina, the incumbent left guard, came to Oregon State three years ago from American Samoa. He was a two sport athlete in high school, playing both football and basketball. A highly touted recruit, Lauina wasted no time in making a difference with the Beavers. Now he’s one of only seven experienced offensive lineman returning and is listed as the starting left guard going in to fall camp. Football kicks off on Thursday, September 1 at Minnesota. For the full schedule, go to www.osubeavers.com.

A big part of safety is thinking ahead, being prepared. The simplest form of hazard analysis business owners or supervisors do is probably asking themselves what they need in their first aid kits. What could happen on my site? Could there be cuts, minor burns, exposure to heat, cold or weather? Is there machinery, or chemicals on site? There is a new ANSI 2015 Standard which provides lists for the basics to include in any “A’ or “B” kit, depending on the range of potential hazards and the environment. Whether you are outfitting a small office, a large truck, a restaurant, farm, grocery store or machine shop, there are specifics to consider. There is a special “Forest Activities” fill specified by OSHA for logging operations. But because OSHA puts the responsibility of being prepared on each employer, special conditions may require special fills. We build kits to ANSI standards, but we also build custom kits of various sizes and purposes for sports teams, truckers, manufacturers, deli and fast food shops, disaster response teams and sheriffs’ departments. And we make refills easy. Metal kits and cabinets, plastic kits, soft kits in fanny packs, duffels or backpacks? See us at Norwest Safety for First Aid. Ask for our First Aid FaxBack order form!

Monroe is proof that when a community works

together it can surmount all obstacles. An open house was held in the spring of 2013. It took six years of persistence to raise $2.4 million of private money and MAX create a library that is the envy of all small towns. It’s worth a stop to chat with the librarian and find out how useful this community library is.

It won’t start! My C HELPP ompu It has a blue screen! P SOMMERVILLE ter Is PPPPPP STis blinking! The whole screen DEAD !! These are a few of the comments we hear ! when we answer the phone at R Computer Company. There are many more! A computer is a very complex piece of equipment that we have learned we cannot live without. Until it breaks down. Several people have learned we offer a cleanup on a regular basis, and they are relieved to find that most of the things that can go wrong are eliminated with a frequent cleaning of the system. We do this for several businesses and regular customers. Usually the businesses do it on a monthly basis, while customers maybe every 6 months, the choice is up to the customer, and talking with us about their usage. We find this regular cleanup will save a lot of problems in the long run and, the best of it is, we can tap into their computer when they have set up a time, and do it all from the office and just send them a bill for the service, hence they do B and it saves time on our end not have to bring in the computer, so we don’t have to charge as much as a home visit. Give us a call and we can talk to you about what would work for you. And as always, if it really breaks down, we are here to help you with any service you need or a new computer if we find the one you have is totally dead. We do NOT tell you it’s dead without much testing and knowing it is unusable. Pick up that phone and give us a call.

O PE

Family owned for generations, the working farm offers so much more than produce, although they take high honors in that category too, with apples, pears, peaches and nectarines, as well as all types of fresh vegetables, nuts, cherries and all kinds of berries, most of which are available seasonally in their open air market or as U-pick. The market also has honey, gift baskets, canned goods, preserves, and more. The Cider Barn offers hot dogs, corn on the cob, fruit pies, lemonade, cider and other snacks to fill empty stomachs after busy mornings on the farm. But, what sets Detering Orchards apart are the special events offering family activities throughout the summer and fall seasons. October offers a plethora of free demonstrations, free hay and corn mazes, free sampling of their fresh apple cider and the Apple Daze Celebration that begins right after Oktoberfest which is held on September 24-25, and continues through the end of October. “An Apple Daze tradition is free samples of mom’s apple cobbler,” said Becky Detering, now co-owner with her brother Greig Detering whose mom began the tradition with her own homemade apple cobbler way back when. “We’ve continued the tradition every weekend during October.” Throughout the fall, each weekend brings something new, such as the Apple Daze Kickoff on the first weekend of October, which offers an apple blaster, tractor rides, animal corral, playground, music, antique farm equipment, fresh apple cider, the pumpkin patch, corn and hay mazes and more for the entire family, with all the acivities continuing throughout the month.

Tree Upkeep Before the Next Storm W

With tree servicesPonds just catching up with damage caused by a rough, wet and windy winter, Brian Jones from A-1 Ron’s Stump & Tree Removal, a family business since 1989, says, “Now is the time to assess your trees so you aren’t doing it during a storm or after a storm when more damage occurs and tree services are busy. “We will inspect your trees and give you a complete assessment. We’ll show you where the danger is before a disaster occurs. This will prevent costly damage from falling trees or tree limbs dropping on cars and houses, 33and34 people. So don’t put off that tree inspection, as the best time 5for an assessment is in the summertime.” 4 3 The tree experts at A-1 prevent future property damage by NHS spotting potential weaknesses that lead to fallen trees and branches. Keeping your trees well maintained with a tree health assessment can increase property value as well. Call A-1 to identify which trees are liabilities and which are assets. “Trees, like humans, suffer from disease and decay and have a life expectancy, so they should be assessed yearly,” Brian says. “You’ll find dangerous trees, healthy trees and unwanted trees. In any case, we’ll give you a free estimate, and if needed, we will provide you with experienced service to clean up and complete the job.” “A-1 has modern equipment for the upkeep of your property. Safety and efficiency was recently improved our acquisition of a 60foot boom truck, which reduces customer costs in some cases, but tree climbers may still be needed. To help with upkeep, discounts for teachers, seniors and military personnel will be honored through October. Call us NOW to inspect. A damaged tree is a dangerous tree!”

Open enrollment is coming. Let me help you choose the best Medicare plan. Open Enrollment is coming up. Let me help you choose the Medicare plan that best fits your needs. It is time for you to start looking into Medicare plans that will be available in 2016. Not making an informed decision could cost you a lot of money and – maybe – your ability to obtain a Medicare supplement in the future. There are a few things that you must look at to make sure you have the right coverage you will need next year. The first decision you will need to make is how is my current coverage changing? Are my copays, premiums, out-of-pocket maximums going up or down? Are my doctors still going to accept the plan I am on, or will I have to look for another doctor? Is my plan not going to cover certain things next year that it covered this year? The second and sometimes most important decision is how are

my prescription drugs going to be covered? When will I hit the doughnut hole, and how can I get help paying for all my expensive medications? Do I qualify for assistance to help pay for these costs? These are all questions that every client of ours has each year and you probably do too. It’s okay, we are here to help. We are a local insurance company that specializes in helping people understand how the changes in Medicare affects them. We are here to help you find the best plan to fit your needs and your budget. Call us and discover what so many other people in your area have found out about their coverage. You can be certain there won’t be any pressure placed on you to purchase a plan, we just want you to know what is available. It could save you a lot of money.

Industry pertaining to Medicare. “My plan has changed, my doctor doesn’t accept my plan anymore, or my premiums have really gone up.” You are not alone. You and thousands of other Oregonians are feeling the exact same way, but how do you know what to do? Who can you talk to that will provide you with clear answers to your many questions about Medicare. Oregon Insurance Company specializes in helping you understand what Medicare is and how you are affected by it. Here are a few things that you should know about your Medicare plan. · You don’t have to change your plan, but it never hurts to compare

· By Federal law, Medicare Supplement plans must provide exactly the same health benefits, no matter which company sells it. · A higher price doesn’t mean a better or more stable plan · If you are turning 65 you can’t be denied coverage

o You need to make sure you make the right decision as it can impact you for the rest of your life to where you may not be able to change your plan in the future  The new health care law does not apply to people on Medicare

URGENT CARE — A Great Choice This author, the publisher of this magazine, can attest to the value of a service like Urgent Care. After finding myself in medical distress and feeling that a long wait in an overworked emergency room at a hospital would not be desirable, I decided to give Urgent Care my trust, and I’m happy that I did. The staff was friendly, the waiting time was short and the doctors were great. They were even able to perform an ultra-sound on me so that they could add this test to their

diagnosis. I didn’t have to wait until tomorrow for conformation; they called me that very evening! The experience made me feel ‘special’ - but then, I’ve heard from friends who have went to an Urgent Care location - they felt special too. So, I asked Dr. Desmond Crooks, one of the owners, to explain a bit about what Urgent Care does, and here is his reply.

Dorris Ranch

Story by Gini Bramlett Photos by Willamalane Park and Rec. District

Put This Family Place On Your Bucket List If you’re a nature enthusiast, a history buff or both,

a visit to Dorris Ranch in Springfield should be on your bucket list. Dorris Ranch in southwest Springfield, part of the Willamalane Park and Recreation District is listed in the National Register of Historic Places. It is a national historic site, a working farm and a public park complete with walking trails and natural areas. The ranch also serves as the western access point of the paved, four-mile-long Middle Fork Path, which runs to Clearwater Park. Dorris Ranch is recognized as the first commercial filbert orchard in the United States. Oregon’s history with filberts started in 1892 when George Dorris and his wife Lulu bought 250 acres of fertile land along the Willamette River and dedicated their lives to farming. After experimenting with a variety of crops, George established the first commercial filbert orchard in the United States. Over the next 50 years the Dorris family planted 9,200 trees at the ranch and harvested more than 50 tons of nuts each year. Now, more than 100 years later, Dorris Ranch continues to make history as a fully-productive commercial filbert orchard. More than half of all the commercial filbert trees now growing in the United States originated from Dorris Ranch nursery stock.

The working ranch contains 11 orchards containing more than 9,000 trees on 75 acres. A local orchardist maintains the orchards. Visitors can step back to 1852 and discover what life was like for the original owners of the ranch, William and Eliza Masterson and their family, and view a replica of their simple 12-foot-by-16-foot log cabin, a blacksmith shop, a freight farm wagon and replicas of a 1830s fur trapper’s cabin and a Native American plank house.

Dorris Ranch is also host to a variety of plants, flowers and birds. Come for a visit and enjoy a walk through this 250-acre historic site and natural area at your own pace on one of the park’s self-guided tours. Brochures with all the interesting facts, historical sites and a map of area paths are available at the entrance kiosk.

Dorris Ranch, 205 Dorris St., is open to the public weekdays and weekends from 6 a.m. till dusk. To get there from downtown Springfield, travel south on South 2nd St. The ranch is at the bottom of the hill.

Bridges have been major part of Oregon’s growth from 1850 through the 1900s. Crossing rivers and creeks were a major problem for people and commerce. Ferries were not dependable due to the rise and fall and swiftness of these rivers and creeks. The sooner a bridge could be built, the more consistent the flow of trade. At first, bridges were not covered and the wet environment of the forest caused Joel Whittmore the planks to rot. Covering added years of life. At one time there were approximately 600 covered bridges in Oregon. Due to being replaced by modern steel and concrete, and abandonment or neglect, that number has dwindled to the present 51. For many locals, that raised an alarm. This has resulted in countless volunteer hours and huge dollars to repair, and sometimes move to a more desirable location, those remaining bridges that had fallen into disrepair. If someone claims to have been to ‘every’ covered bridge in Oregon (and its not in this guide) they need to send proof, pictures and location, and we’ll gladly publish it here, upon confirmation. Photo at right - Along your journey you may even find a few uncared for bridges, like the Dahlenburg foot bridge that was built over Ames Creek in 1989. No matter what, the search for covered bridges is fascinating. Every bridge has its own Dahlenburg unique scenery and its own story to tell.

WESTERN OREGON’S COVERED BRIDGES Structure is Everything To make the most out of your covered bridge trek, notice the groupings and plan your day accordingly. Be sure to look for the truss type that supports the bridge you are visiting. There are a few reasons why the Howe truss was most commonly used; primarily it was its simple design strength over long distances coupled with its vertical steel tie-rods that allowed maintenance crews to adjust as needed.

#36

Cascadia (105’ span) - Sweet Home Cascadia was covered but is now uncovered, its uniqueness is the upside-down Howe.

Each bridge has their own unique history. To get the most out of a covered bridge outing it is suggested by our staff that visitors stop in at the local library, museum and/or chamber of commerce. And, while you are in the town, be sure to check out the downtown business district for food and shopping.

A word from Westfir Mayor Matt Meske

“If you are an outdoors person or someone who would like to live in a quiet community, Westfir is the place for you. We have several local swimming holes, hiking trails, popular biking trails, birding nature area, horse-

70

back riding trails, and a not-to-distant OHV park. And the amazing Aufderheide Scenic Highway begins here. With Westfir Lodge we have beds and meals, for RV overnighters we have Casey’s Riverside RV Park, and

for general items we have Westfir General Store. Of course Oakridge is just a few minutes away for everything else. In short, this is a great place to live.” •

Sixty Miles of Pure Nature The Aufderheide Scenic Drive By Gini Bramlett

Cougar Reservoir

Where can one truly escape

from the ever-increasing traffic, the incessant noise and the ever-present evidence of our technological world? My choice is the peaceful tranquility of the Aufderheide (pronounced Owf-der-high-duh) Scenic Drive, part of the Western Oregon Scenic Byway in the Willamette National Forest. This pleasant afternnoon drive is unique in that it equates a step back in time before power lines, cell phone towers, and billboards marred our natural world. There are no restaurants, motels or gas stations, and very little traffic. But, do watch out for bicyclists, this byway

74

is for them too. Our first stop was Cougar Reservoir offering boating, fishing and other water recreation. With repairs forcing the lowering of the water level, and low rainfall coupled with unseasonably warm temperatures this past spring, expect to see record low water levels. But, as you can see in the above picture, the view is still a sight to behold. Most of the drive follows various forks of both the McKenzie and the Willamette rivers where dozens of campgrounds - all primitive - are available on a firstcome first-serve basis.

For hikers, there are trailheads galore, and numerous inviting swimming holes offering quick dips to cool off.

Native Columbine


If you’re game, take the four-mile hike for a relaxing soak at one of the five Terwilliger Hot Springs located a short distance beyond the reservoir. Cost is $5 per person and clothing is optional.

For RVers there is nearby Casey’s Riverside RV Park-Casey’s is one of the top rated RV parks in Oregon.

Along the roadway, the first half of the drive offers a plethora of photo opportunities of native plants, such as lupine, diminutive tiger lillies, columbine and at least five types of ferns. With all the maples lining the road, a fall visit will yield lush colors.

North Fork Willamette River This 60-mile jaunt begins just past the town of Blue River on Hwy 126. I recommend that you make a quick stop at the McKenzie Ranger station in Blue River and pick up an audio tape guide. (Note: the ranger station is closed weekends). Allocate about three hours to complete the drive allowing for photo stops, scenic views, and maybe a picnic along the river bank.

The byway ends at the Office Bridge in the quiet town of Westfir. Here there is a general store to purchase snacks and groceries and there is Westfir Lodge which offers rooms, drinks, and lunches. Travel through the Office Bridge and you will find a picnic area with restroom facilities.

EmeraldValleyArmory.com

All-Season Hours: Tue-Sat 10am-6pm

The Emerald Valley Armory was founded by Raye Gunter in late 2011. Raye has over 15 years of armory management experience and almost 8 years of active service. His vision with Emerald Valley Armory is to build a solid line of services and products based on his experience. “I sell, buy and trade legal guns. And, if you are selling a firearm between two private parties, I am happy to do the transfer for you.”

Emerald Offers A Variety Of Classes “Safety is developed in training.”

• Basic Handgun Safety and Personal Protection Oregon/Utah CHL Handgun safety and responsibilities concluding with Oregon/Utah Concealed Handgun License. • Carry Skills Class Advanced defensive handgun use and safety • Urban Defensive Carbine Class Use of the carbine in short to medium range environments All classes are complete with active shooting instruction.

A Message From Raye

“Why have a gun? Is the most common question that non-owners ask me,” said Raye Gunter, owner and gunsmith, of the Emerald Valley Armory of Creswell. “People own and enjoy guns for many reasons: 1- Recreational shooting, competition, or collecting; 2- Hunting game such as deer, elk, antelope, waterfowl, upland game birds, varmint, or predator control; 3- They are concerned about self-defense in a world that preys upon the defenseless. And while we’re on that subject, its been proven time and again, that the crazy shooters pick on people that won’t shoot back, they will run if one of their potential victims points a gun at them.

82

Sadly, our society is being fed the notion that taking away all guns will eliminate all shooters, BUT, what history teaches us, when countries take away gun rights from their citizenry, is that criminals have a heyday robbing, murdering and doing terrible things. Our U.S. Constitution is not out-dated as some of our politicians are telling us. Our U.S. Constitution was wise in allowing us to defend ourselves against both internal and external criminal elements. Simply look around, read history and think about the direction this world is going-and give me a call to tell me where I am wrong.”

Quick History, Past From its headwaters at Diamond Lake

in the Cascade Mountain Range, 100 miles east of Roseburg, the Umpqua River snakes its way 111 miles past Roseburg to where it empties into the Pacific Ocean at Winchester Bay. Simply put, the Scenic Umpqua River Valley stretches from Roseburg where the North Umpqua and South Umpqua meet (six miles northwest of Roseburg), to its mouth at Winchester Bay. The river and its valleys are famous for many things, including world class fishing, scenic trails, logging and, more recently, wine. In the early 1800’s the Umpqua River valley was inhabited mostly by the Coquilles, a tribe of Native Americans. The tribe gave most of its land to the United States in the 1854 Treaty with the Umpqua

90

and Kalapuya, agreeing to move to a reservation in Lincoln County and become part of the Confederated Tribes of Siletz. The river itself is named for the Umpqua, one of the Coquille bands. Two translations of the Native American word “umpqua” are “thundering waters” and “across the waters”. Since the early pioneer days, the river and surrounding areas helped produce and move the greatest wealth in Southern Oregon-timber and gold. Sailing vessels and steam schooners would arrive at Winchester Bay and their hard-to-get merchandise would be loaded onto river boats that would carry the goods to Scottsburg, where the deep tidewater ends and the rapids begin. There, the goods would be re-loaded onto mule trains and head for the interior valley and Roseburg.

On the turn-around trip the mule trains would be loaded with timber and gold from the valley and sent back to be re-loaded at Scottsburg for the final leg to Winchester Bay. This all worked fine until devestating floods of the 1860s wiped out most of Scottsburg, sinking it into obscurity. Also, at the same time, advancements of the north/south railroad lines in the valley, made shipping more predictable. Today, the Umpqua River is famous for some of the world’s best fly-fishing, salmon fishing, and sturgeon fishing. It is also known for its small-mouth bass, striped bass, and shad population. The river and its heavy summer steelhead run was made famous when writer and sports angler Major Lawrence Mott, also known as the “millionaire reporter”, set up a fishing camp in the area in 1929.

What’s Happening? Let’s Look For History September 10

10-11am We will have a historic walking tour with the Yoncalla Historical Society that will focus on historic buildings/sites along Main Street. One of the stops is the church. We’ll gather in the open lot across Main Street from the Main Street Espresso in Yoncalla. (Take advantage by getting something hot to drink and a scone or a slice of pumpkin bread from that establishment before each event starts!) Participation is free and everyone is welcome. After the events grab some lunch at the Yoncall Deli, the Why Not Bar and Grill or at the Yoncalla Food Center. If you get your lunch to go, you can eat at the George Burt Park on Main Street or the Yoncalla Community Park or at the Pioneer Cemetery in town. Or, take your lunch to Mildred Kanipe County Park—All have places to eat your picnic and all are beautiful spots! Shortly before each event more details will be provided on flyers posted throughout the city. Don’t miss out on the fun Yoncall has to offer! For more information, contact Aileen Palmer at: 541-849-2192

September 26-30

Archaeological Dig Archaeologists Pat O’Grady and Christopher Ruiz and Professor Liz Carter of the University of Oregon, along with volunteers, will do a field study of the Applegate homestead site. The Applegate ‘new’ home was built in 1852. The site was found in 2014 with ground penetrating radar. Besides the original homestead cabin a Native American dwelling (perhaps of the Komemma) was also detected-therefore, the BLM and the Cow Creek band of Umpqua Indians will be present. On Sept. 27 and 29 the dig will be open to the public. On Oct. 1 there will be a day for public education with stories, music and much more. For more information, go to: Applegatehouse.com or Applegate House/Facebook

Deadwood (Only 35 Minutes From Florence) Rumor has it—In the early 1800s the local Indians did a controlled underbrush burn in the area. The burn did not go

as planned and, as a result, may trees were burnt therefore creating much 'dead wood'. First homestead was by Thomas Pope in 1882. Present pop. (2014) 294; Elev. 262’; Not incorp.

Deadwood Country Market & Tavern On Scenic Hiway 36

Owners Dimitri, Angelo & Tina manage a

convenience market, restaurant/bar and gas pumps. River access is nearby.

This is a ‘must-stop’ on Hwy 36, just 17 minutes upriver from Mapleton. Here’s what the customer’s say: • “If you haven’t visited, stop by to see the awesome bar & restaurant, featuring an amazing cedar log bar!” • “Family friendly atmosphere!” • “Dimitri’s a talented chef, and his wife Tina made us all feel welcome!”

“Yummy food inside!”

WALTON STORE & CAFE By Felisa Rogers Across the road from the Morning Glory Farm, and a few feet to the west, you’ll find the timestamped Walton Store. The punctures in the 100- year-old floor are from loggers’ caulk boots, and you can learn more about Walton history

from an open book on the counter. Scan the room and you will find more Open M-Tu 10-6pm W-Su 9-8pm than a convenience store—there’s food, cold drinks, golden oldie records to 18945 Hwy 126 listen to, and nice people to chat with. 541-521-8853 So why not stop here and relax awhile?

The Deadwood/Walton Loop In the rush to get to the coast, travellers are missing

some of the finest scenery Oregon’s Coast Range Mountains have to offer. This is called the Deadwood/ Walton Loop because their very names suggest pioneer history and, I had to come up with a title to make the driver slow down. The Loop runs from Veneta to Mapleton to Franklin and back to Veneta. Of course there are many more towns along the Loop that need recognition-Mapleton, Brickerville, Tide, Swisshome, Greenleaf, Blachly, Horton, Triangle Lake, Low Pass, Franklin, Elmira, Veneta, Noti; and others I apologize for missing.

Legend: Pioneer Cemetery (3) PCem Wigwam (1) Covered Bridge (4) (see Covered Bridge Guide) River/Lake Access State Park SPLPCounty Park Camping Old Barn

Stop in at Walton Store & Cafe and ask to see their copy of a book that has the history of the area-you’ll be entranced at what you will find. At Noti you’ll find a milltown that is typical of the 1950s complete with a restaurant/bar. For me it is stepping back in time to my childhood. For sightseers there are four covered bridges, a wigwam in Swisshome, numerous photo opportunities, occassional old barns that speak of a hopeful past, hiking, camping, picnicing, boating, swimming, restuarants, pubs, convenience stores, fueling stations, boat accesses and even a nice dry place to wash your dog.

The Umpqua River, whose mouth is at Winchester Bay, and whose tidewaters reach nearly 20 miles inland to the town of Scottsburg, was a major shipping route in the mid 1800s. This river provided movement of WILLIAM M. TUGMAN cargo to the upper Willamette Valley-essential tools & supplies came upriver and gold & lumber went downriver. The Umpqua shipping went to Coos Bay when its lighthouse collapsed in 1863. See Lighthouse section. STATE

While you are in the area be sure to check out the Egyptian Theatre, its restored architecture and its films. It is at 229 S. Broadway, in Coos Bay. Phone 541-269-8650. Also visit our museums: Coos Art Museum, 235 Anderson Ave, 541-2673901 AND the Coos Historical & Maritime Museum, 1220 Sherman Ave, North Bend, 541-7566320. One more thing, don’t forget to visit the Cape Arago coast! I recommend getting up early, take the Cape Arago Hwy, load up with goodies at Charleston, and continue on to the Cape. Stop along the way and enjoy, you’ll be glad you did.

NORTH BEND HISTORY Louis Simpson purchased the townsite of Yarrow and renamed it 'North Bend' in 1903. Two major transportation developments allowed the isolated area to grow-the railroad in 1916 and the Conde McCullough Bridge in 1936. The Simpson family was a major influence in the development of Coos Bay, North Bend, Charleston and Cape Arago.

The Conde McCullough Memorial Bridge (in North Bend) opened in 1936. It is a cantilever type bridge with a span of 5,305'.

Cape Arago Lighthouse Lens Now At CHM!

By Steven Greif and Jon Littlefield

The Coos History Museum in Coos

Bay opened in the summer of 2015 and continues to add to its stellar exhibits about life on Oregon’s South Coast. Recently a wonderful lighthouse lens was added to the collection. The Cape Arago Lighthouse at the mouth of Coos Bay, one of the earliest on the Oregon Coast, began service in 1866. A replace-

ment lighthouse was built in 1909. In 1993, GPS replaced the need for the light at Cape Arago and its lens was then moved to storage at a local Coast Guard station. The lens was manufactured in Paris using the lens designs of Augustin Fresnel (1788-1827) a French physicist who revolutionized aids to navigation by supporting the theory that light moves in waves, not particles, so it can be bent and focused using glass prisms. Working with physicist François Arago, they developed compound lenses that refracted light to form beams. A Fresnel lens wraps around the lamp to concentrate light rays into a super-powerful beam so that sailors can see the beam up to 20 miles away. Fresnel figured out that the lamp and lens could be rotated, so that as the beam of light swept across the sea, the light seemed to flash. Adding different sequences of flashes and colored panels of glass helped sailors know which lighthouse they were looking at and where they were. When you study the Cape Arago lens,

which is lit with a modern low wattage LED bulb, you will notice that it has three “bull’s eye” lenses in the center of three of its quadrants, but the fourth quadrant of the lens is covered by a brass shield, or shovel. When the lens revolved every 20 seconds in a clockwise direction, it produced three separate white flashes followed by 12 seconds of darkness — Cape Arago’s “signature.” The Coos History Museum at 1210 North Front Street, Coos Bay, is open from 10-6 daily except Mondays. Admission is $7 for adults and $3 for children under 18. AAA, AARP, and family discounts are available. For more info phone 541-756-6320.

Life-Saving Light The Fresnel lens was invented by Augustin-Jean Fresnel and installed in the 223’ French Cordouan lighthouse in 1853. This more efficient lens (than a planoconvex lens) takes light from a small source and refracts the light waves into a concentrated beam.

OREGON COAST LIGHTHOUSES

PhotosByShaun.com Featured Lighthouse: The Coquille River Lighthouse was lit in 1896. For the people of Bandon, it offerred the hope of greater commerce. There were few roads on the Oregon Coast at that time. This lighthouse was decommissioned in 1939 when the Coast Guard placed an automated beacon near the end of the south jetty.

T

he development of lighthouses on the west coast in the 1800s was a must for commerce and U.S. westward expansion, especially when the infrastructure of highways and airports was non-existent. The rush to build lighthouses was as important as the push of railroads (east and west; and north and south). Still useful today, lighthouses reassure mariners that they are on the right course. From their inception, lighthouses were expensive to operate and, being a keeper of the lighthouse could be lonely and dangerous-think

of living on Terrible Tilly (Tillamook Rock) with rough seas smashing over the top of the lighthouse. By the 1930s technology had improved to allow additional options for maritime safety. Oregon’s Lightships: various Columbia lightships, a ‘lighthouse’ on a ship, marked the entrance of the Columbia River from 1892-1979. The last one is docked in Astoria, tours are available. U.S. Facts: The tallest U.S. lighthouse is Cape Hatteras Lighthouse, N.C., 200’ tall. The only ‘keeper’ in the U.S. still ‘keeping a lighthouse’

(by order of U.S. Congress) is in the Boston Lighthouse. It is the oldest station in the U.S. The U.S. state with the most lighthouses is Michigan, with 124. Earliest U.S. lighthouses built were in Maine, 1791 and in Virginia, 1792. World facts: The first recorded lighthouse was built by Egypt in 285 B.C., and was destroyed by earthquake in 1302. The oldest existing lighthouse in the world is the 180’ Tower of Hercules, near Corunna, Spain, built between 100-200 A.D. •

Story by GS Oregon Dir. Karen Wells

Casey’s Riverside RV Park is truly a

10-10-10 Good Sam rated RV park, setting alongside the beautiful Willamette River about 35 miles east of Eugene/ Springfield area. It has been labeled a ‘banana belt’, also said to be ‘above the fog but below the snow’. At 1,100 feet above sea level, it is a peaceful and beautiful spot to stop the engine and sit for a spell. Being in the country, having a 1,200 sq. ft. pavilion with two open sides and a 1,600 sq. ft. club house with a great kitchen and lots of room is a drawing card you can’t ignore. Casey and Becky Jones built Casey’s Riverside RV Park in the early 1990s. Randy and Lynn Christian, the present owners, purchased it in January 2008. They have seen the park do very well, becoming one of the favorite camping spots for Oregon Good Sam Chapters.

124

Lynn & Randy Christian

When asked about GS support, Randy said that 32 groups of all kinds have used the park within the last year. He now says that they like to have at least 6 weeks advance notice for reservations. Open year round, a lot of work goes into keeping the park pretty. Besides Randy and Lynn, they have Jackie and Mitch, park managers, who help them with all the maintenance and landscaping. At this time they only have two RVs listed as permanent. After next year, there will be no monthly rates charged, just daily ones. Included in their dreams are more sites and better fiber-optic internet services. I almost forgot to add that besides being voted as the top RV park in Oregon, Casey’s is recognized by GS as one of the Top Ten Good Sam RV Parks in the U.S.
