“The Pole Barn People” 2
Established in 1988
Part 1
The Beauty of Birch
Part 1 FOR PART 2 SEE PAGE 149
There are twelve species of the Betula Genus of Birch Trees. Some of the common names are; Paper Bark Birch, River Birch, Himilayan Birch, Bog Birch, Cherry Birch, Downy Birch, Dwarf Birch, Japanese White Birch, and . . . They love water (some more than others), they have
great color and shape, they grow well in our climate and, they give us shade! We all love Birches! And, in the past three years, an invader has come to the Willamette Valley that loves Birches too. Meet “Bronze Birch Borer” in Part 2 of this magazine.
Do you see ‘lumps’ forming under the bark of your tree? Do you see bronzy colored oozing? Do you see unusual bark separation?
If you don’t want to lose your tree, take action! A serious epidemic is underway.
SINCE 1948
**For the rest of the story and how to solve this situation before it is too late, see Part 2, in this magazine.**

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.
Tending orchards, cultivating a variety of fruits and vegetables, raising cows and chickens and other livestock, hosting entertainment on the farm-these activities could describe the lifestyle on the farm in Johans generation or that of the 5th generation working the farm today. In addition to providing fresh fruit, vegetables, locker beef, pork, and lamb, the Hentze Farm features antique processing equipment which saves time and mess for home processors. The farm
offers the services of snipped and cut green beans, corn husked and cut, pitted sweet and sour cherries and cracked walnuts and hazelnuts. In addition serving patrons produce needs, the Hentzes also entertain visitors with the farm animal experience. Special events include BBQ’s, live music, wagon rides and other farm activities throughout the summer and fall. To read more about the Hentze experience see our website: www.hentzefarm.com.

With tree services 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, and people. So don’t put off that tree inspection, as the best time for an assessment is in the summertime.” The tree experts at A-1 prevent future property damage by 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!”

Rock Of Ages
Your Place For Custom Cabochons & Wire Wrapping Cliff Case and family have lived in Harrisburg for 37 years. His wife came up with the name “Rock of Ages” and it is fitting based on his Christian beliefs. “I have always liked rocks. Even as a kid I put rocks in my pockets instead of worms and frogs,” Cliff said. “I set up a rock shop in 2012, after retiring from Morse Brothers, and have been happily polishing jasper, agate, blue sodalite, etc., ever since. “Often a customer will come with a rough stone which they ask me to make a special piece for them. First, I inspect the stone for natural cracks and fissures, then give the customer a quote of time and price. “Besides making custom bracelets and necklaces I also make earrings, wire bracelets, animal pins and whatever else my imagination and machinery can agree upon. Unique designs are the ‘fun’ of what goes on in my shop.” Visit the Courtyard on 6th in Junction City to see a display case with some of my current creations. Prices run from $8 to $50.” Call: 541-510-8451 CaseCliff@comcast.net Psalm 18:2 “The Lord is my rock.”

Salvage Sisters Antiques & More By Kathy Rowland
My sister-in-law,
Laura, and myself retired two years ago and decided to follow our passion--we love antiques and collectibles. It was easy to ‘adjust our lifestyle’ and switch to restoring, repurposing and bringing old furniture back to life. You can find results of our ‘works’ in the Courtyard on 6th, in Junction City. Recently the owner, John, came to us with an idea that we should consider making ‘mini rooms’ of furniture and collectibles displayed in a functional way. What a grand idea!
So when you come to the Courtyard on 6th be sure to go upstairs and check out our new showrooms. Perhaps you’ll even get some decorating ideas, that’s fine with us. You can purchase individual items or the entire room. That’s fine with us too. We invite you to come visit us at the Courtyard on 6th, in Junction City, Monday thru Saturday, 10-6pm. Do you want a fun day? Stop by the Courtyard and peruse away!
We have Firewood For Sale Now Taking Orders For This Fall Call 541-953-1194 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.

You Need to Know!
“Did you know a properly maintained Heating and Air Conditioning (HVAC) unit can improve your vehicle’s engine health? (see answer below) Did you know that your Heating unit and Air Conditioning unit are, for all practical purposes, one in the same? Did you know that a properly maintained HVAC will allow you to be warmer in the winter and give you more effective defrost air for your windshield? (your HVAC dehumidifies) Before you get desperate during the summer heat waves, NOW is the time to get an air conditioner check-up. Putting off maintenance for an HVAC runs the risk of damaging it and likely end up costing you much more later on. Drop by during business hours and I will check fluids at no charge, then we can set an appointment to do a complete air conditioner service. Here’s the answer to the first question. On a HOT DAY the HVAC system is designed to keep YOU and your ENGINE COOL. For this to happen it is critical that the HVAC oil level and refrigerant charge is to manufacture’s specifications. We use ECO friendly products that will restore your HVAC system back to Brand New Vehicle Factory Charge Specifications.” — Bill Morrow — ASE Certified.

Testimonial - “Whenever we call, we get one of the owners, Craig or Rick. We recently did a kitchen
remodel. They ran gas, water and replaced drain lines. After the cabinets were installed, they hooked up our gas range, and installed our new kitchen sink and dishwasher and hooked up the ice/water on our refrigerator. Our former drain was running slow, so they ‘snaked’ the line and now its great too! These are the ONLY plumbers we’ll ever call!” - SR, Junction City

Between 1894-1904 the McMurpheys had four daughters and two sons. Additionally, Alberta helped beautify the railroad depot and dedicated an ornate electric fountain • In 1950 The McMurphey family sold the house to Drs. Curtis and Eva Johnson. As a child, Eva had always dreamed of owning the “Castle on the Hill,” now she was able to purchase it for $30,000. Application was made to the city of Eugene to place their medical offices in the house-it was denied. Curtis and Eva had four children. Curtis

Brianne Parsons’ entire life changed on the night of October 9, 2017. While she was asleep in her dorm at Oregon, Parsons’ childhood home outside of Santa Rosa burned to the ground during the California wildfires. Upon hearing the news, Parsons caught the first flight home to see the wreckage Brianne Parsons for herself. The house, her home since she was eight, was a total loss. Only bits and pieces of their lives remained – just a few nick knacks were recovered. The family’s two cats, Pepe’ Le Pew and Taz, hid during the fire and were never found. The family did have plenty to be grateful for, however. Firefighters estimated that if Parsons’ family had stayed for a few more minutes, they wouldn’t have survived. During their escape, they randomly went a route they seldom used. Later they would find out that had the fire had blocked their normal route, burning at least three cars on the road.
Support began pouring in as news of the fire spread. The University of Oregon sent boxes of clothing and shoes for the family, and a GoFundMe raised over $25,000 in donations to help them start over. The fire took its toll on Parsons’ health, sidelining her for the second half of the season with chronic migraines. While Parsons was on the sideline, teammate and close friend Mia Costa (inset picture) wore Parsons’ #22 jersey in tribute. Up until the fire, Parsons had played in every game and started one game. Even with the migraines and shock of losing her family home, she still managed to earn a Pac-12 All-Academic honorable mention. As a senior, Parsons is set to be an instrumental part of this year’s soccer team. The Oregon Ducks season starts in mid-August. For the schedule or for more information, visit goducks.com.

enior Nathan Braaten is a midfielder on the Oregon State men’s soccer team, a finance major and a two-time Pac-12 All-Academic First Team honoree. And after a teammate committed suicide, Braaten became a co-founder of Dam Worth It, a mental health awareness campaign aimed at Oregon State students. Braaten started the movement with former Oregon State gymnast Taylor Ricci, who also lost a teammate to suicide. What began as a simple chat over coffee between the two athletes quickly turned into an Oregon State sanctioned program for all students, not Nathan Braaten just athletes. The outreach, which started the same week Washington State quarterback Tyler Hilinski committed Gatekeeper Training for suicide prevention, guest speakers, suicide, features a social media campaign and a table at every winter and spring sporting event. Volunteers staffing the peer-to-peer coaching and Dam Worth It promotional materials.

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.

know they have. Have you ever taken the side off your desktop and looked inside? Most people haven’t thought to do that. Well if you did, no matter how clean your house is, you will find a layer of dust, and dust bunnies, that collect from thin air. When we get a desktop in we always blow them out. We have found dead frogs, mice and dust bunnies in computers. Now it has nothing to do with your cleaning habits, it is just that a computer is a magnet for dust, I don’t’ know about mice and frogs - how they got in I have no idea. When you take your computer to the big box store to get it fixed, you should ask how much they charge to blow it out. Call and ask them. We do it as a service to our customers free. And it gives us a chance to check your fans. Sometimes the dust is so thick on the fan it really slows it down and then makes the computer get too B or ineffecient system. hot, which can result in a damaged Now I can hear all of you running to your computer to check the dust in it, but we would be glad to do it for you for free, when you bring in your computer for work.

After the cabinets were installed, they hooked up our gas range, and installed our new kitchen sink and dishwasher and hooked up the ice/water on our refrigerator. Our former drain was running slow, so they ‘snaked’ the line and now its great too! These are the ONLY plumbers we’ll ever call!” - SR, Junction City Testimonial -

that, chairs are what we work on the most1at our shop! Here’s some basics about this very common item. FIRE STA. The most important joint on a chair is the seat to back joint. This joint is stressed every time the chair is pushed 1 back 4 or leaned on. The higher the chair back, the more stress there will be. To check that joint on your chairs, put your knee on the seat and push on the back. Do you see movement at that joint? If yes, it’s time to take 3 action! Things to check:
*If you see wood plugs on the back of the stiles, remove them, tighten screws & replace plugs. (This may require new stained & finished plugs.)

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.

Western Oregon’s Covered Bridges
Chitwood
On the following four pages you will find: • A map with 51 locations. • Instructions on how to drive to each covered bridge. • Four short loop tours. • The basic concept of bridge engineering.
Crawfordsville Krewson
Facts:
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.

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 of
course, Oakridge is just a few minutes away for everything else. We have a terrific community, a healthy climate, and much more. In short, this is a great place to live.” •

The 59th Annual Bohemia Mining Days Festival celebrates the unique and colorful history of Cottage Grove’s early days when miners headed into town to spend their gold in the frontier town. This year’s theme, “Every Trail Tells a Tale”, highlights the stories of how the roads that served the Bohemia Mining District got their names and were used. Coiner Park transforms into “Bohemia City” for three days of FREE family-friendly fun. Enjoy live entertainment, food court & themed meals, a zipline, games, contests, amusements (mechanical bull, Euro-bungie jumping, rock climbing wall & dunk tank), 80+ vendors, a historical treasure hunt and cultural heritage demonstrations.

t’s comforting to know that Wuergler Family Farms in Drain practices socially responsible agriculture on their custom-raised pork farm that emphasizes animal well being. The Wuergler’s strive to do what’s right while respecting the land and treating animals humanely to sustain local communities. “Our pigs are bred healthy in a clean environment, coming from good breeding stock with solid genetics,” say owners Steve and Bonnie Wuergler. “We use a quality feed program with whole grains and no growth hormones. “Because of our low-stress livestock handling coupled with daily interactions with family members, our champion quality show pigs have fine dispositions combining friendliness and curiosity. “During farrowing (birthing process) time it is not uncommon to pull all-nighters; pigs don’t groom their young when born, so we try to be in the barn with every farrowing
to insure the babies are clean and dry and at least know how to find a teat in order to get their first colostrum.” “I [Steve] have served on the board of Oregon Pork Producers as well as on the National Pork Board. I stay on top of industry issues and continue to work with the National Pork Board Speakers Bureau in giving presentations throughout the state. “The assurance of pork quality in our industry, as well as our farm, is of upmost importance. “We currently have 21 female breeding stock sows and gilts, 2 boars and various stages of weaner and feeder pigs. “This time of year we have bred our females for champion quality Yorkshire, Hampshire, Berkshire, Duroc and Crossbred pigs for 4-H/ FFA project pigs for kids to pick project animals around spring break.

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
86
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.

Darlingtonia Natural Site
Story by Colette Kimball, Photos by Rick Obst
Just off Highway 101, near the north end of Florence, sits a bog full of plants which are so rare that
the State of Oregon maintains an 18-acre botanical park to protect them. The plants are the Darlingtonia californica, more commonly known as a “Cobra Lilly” or “Pitcher Plant.” plants from a boardwalk over the bog. at any time of the year, the best time to The Darlingtonia Natural Site visit may be in the late spring or early includes a quarter-mile-long loop trail While seeing the rare insect-eating plants growing in the wild is enjoyable summer when the plants are in bloom. that provides excellent views of the Life in a bog, where there are few nutrients in the soil, can be hard for a plant. The Darlingtonia has adapted by “eating” insects. The process is rather simple: insects are attracted into the plant’s “mouths” by sweet-smelling nectar. Once inside, the insects become confused and can’t find their way back out. Eventually, they slide to the base of the plant where they drown in a pool of fluid. As the insect bodies break down, they release nutrients which the plant absorbs. Theses carnivorous flora have been called, ‘eerily spectacular!’
Formerly known as the Darlingtonia Wayside, the Darlingtonia Natural Site is located just east of Highway 101, five miles north of Florence. It is conveniently close to the coast highway and makes for an easy stop.

Siuslaw Pioneer Museum Florence
By Colette Kimball Photos By Historical Society
It is no surprise that Florence, with its vibrant historic
Old Town, is full of history. Settlers were first attracted to the area in the late 1800s because of its wealth of natural resources, especially timber and salmon. The area was so rugged and remote that these hardy people depended on natural thoroughfares – traveling on the beach or along the Siuslaw River – to connect with the outside world. Despite this isolation, the population in Florence flourished so that by 1905 a two-story schoolhouse was built. Today, that schoolhouse is the perfect setting for the Siuslaw Pioneer Museum.
Located in the heart of Old Town the museum provides an interesting collection of artifacts from earlier times. Showing how people lived and worked in the Siuslaw River area is the focus of the first floor exhibits. The second floor features a military room, displays of office and sewing equipment, and a room of Native American artifacts. Sprinkled throughout the museum are videos which explain the history in more detail. Perhaps the best displays, however, are a large replica of a saw mill and some of the original controls from the Siuslaw River drawbridge. These are located outside on the back patio. Harry Zinn, Operations Manager, says that the museum is constantly getting new donations and regularly rotates their exhibits to keep them fresh and interesting. An addition is also in the works, which will increase both exhibit and storage space. The Siuslaw Pioneer Museum is located 278 Maple Street. Admission $3. Check the Museum’s website (www.siuslawpioneermuseum.com) for open hours.

FLORENCE, SOUTH OF THE BRIDGE
The Siuslaw River Bridge, pictured above, looking southward, was opened in 1936. It was designed by Conde
McCullough (1887-1946) who had designed fourteen Hwy 101 bridges, from Astoria to Gold Beach, that were completed between 1921 and 1936. The Siuslaw River Bridge is 1,568’ long and has a double-lift bascule (counter-weighted drawbridge) that allows 110’ clearance. The four obelisks at the corners of the bascule contain mechanical apparatus. Prints available at PhotosByShaun.com Glenada was platted in 1889 by George Colter (Coulter). Dunes City and Westlake, 7.5 miles south of Florence, are communities that are now blended together as Dunes City.

by Diane Novak, director Come inside the Umpqua Discovery Center on Reedsport’s riverfront and you’ll enter an exciting new world. You will be taken on a journey through time in the Tidewaters and Time cultural history exhibit and gift shop. The adventure begins with the Kuuich Indians and early explorers, such as Jedediah Smith. Listen as the early pioneers tell stories about life in a tidewater town and watch videos of how logging was done in the past. Walk through the fish cannery and tidewater town. The combination of genuine historical artifacts and high tech sound and light will heighten your appreciation of the experience. In the natural history exhibit, Pathways to Discovery, visitors are taken along on a simulated outdoor adventure. First, there’s the estuary at sunrise in the fall. This is followed by the deep forest in winter at midday, where you can slide into the bear cave and learn about hibernating bears. Next you enter the weather station, listen to storm stories from the past, and learn a wealth of information from the OMSI exhibits on rain, wind, and atmosphere. Your journey will continue to a high mountain meadow on a spring afternoon, and then to a summer sunset in the dunes. The end of the trail is the Subterranean Education Room where you’ll view videos on skeletons, weather, seashore & animal homes.
Open Daily (admission charged): June 1-Sept 30: Mon-Sat, 10-5pm; Sun 12-4pm Oct 1-May 31: Mon-Sat, 10-4pm; Sun 12-4pm Located at 409 Riverfront Way, Reedsport. For info call 541-271-4816 or go to www.umpquadiscoverycenter.com

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. •

Section 6 is west of the I-5 Freeway. It is shown along with its neighboring sections. As you can see, its central city, the City of Banks, is positioned as a ‘hub’. (See City of Banks page) A Short, Short Story The settlement of Section 6 accelerated when President Thomas Jefferson completed the purchase of the Louisiana Territory from France in 1803. This doubled the size of the young United States of America. Quickly, the U.S. Congress allocated $2,500 for an expedition to discover what lay west of that purchase. President Jefferson asked his friend Lewis to be the commander. Knowing he needed help, Lewis asked his friend Clark, a man he had served with in the army, to be co-commander. Lewis was the botanist and journal keeper and Clark took care of the organizing and logistics. From May 1804 to September 1806 the Corps of Discovery traveled 8,000 miles — Fort Clatsop was the pivot. Lewis and Clark found fertile valleys, fish, and timber. All were close to the Columbia for import/export. This area was an immediate success for the settlement of a new frontier and for the needs of all America.

The Appalachian Road Trip - Part Three ‘On The Way’ Back to Oregon
The Great Smoky Mountains National Park
Cherokee is a town in the sovereign Eastern Band of the Cherokee Nation. It is one of those places we should have stopped to explore, but we were focused on the National Park. We stopped at the Oconaluftee Visitor center which has displays and museum pieces that recount a history of life in the Smoky Mountains. The adjacent Mountain Farm museum is a group of buildings collected from locations throughout the park. You can explore a log house, a barn, a springhouse and blacksmith shop. Just down the road is the Mingus Mill. A working grist mill that was built in 1886 to grind corn and grain. The mill would keep a portion as payment. Corn was a valuable commodity in the Smoky Mountains. It was used to make moonshine whiskey (lots and lots of moonshine whiskey). It seems there was no age limit for consumption. What was not used in making moonshine was ground for use in Corn flour at Mingus Grist Mill cooking. We purchased some

freshly ground corn meal from the mill. It makes excellent corn bread. It was a beautiful drive through the park. We stopped at the top where you could stand with one foot in North Carolina and one in Tennessee. The Appalachian Trail also crosses the road at this point. After spending many days in the quiet of the Shenandoah, the Blue Ridge Mountains, and the Great Smoky Mountains it was a real shock when we drove out into Pigeon Forge, home of Dollywood. People of the East Coast are fortunate to have these treasures in their backyard. A place to escape from the big cities and experience vistas and restorative quiet of these beautiful mountains and trails. It was a great adventure. We were at home in the woods, appreciated the high points and knew when to make tracks. After Visiting family in Nova Scotia, Oregon travelers Rog, Lin, and Trudy (cat), and Lee decided to make a road trip. This is Part Three of a three-part series that shares a portion of their adventures. Rog and Lin enjoy sharing their experiences. Trudy watches after them . . .

Bronze Birch Borers follow the typical wood borer life cycle. The adults fly, mate, chew a hole, and then deposit eggs that develop into larvae which do the bulk of the damage. While in the wood the larvae pupate into future adults who grow and chew their way out to fly and mate.
There’s nothing hopeful about this picture, and the pruning in late 2016 wasn’t the answer.
The larvae feeds on the cambium (sapwood). This attack separates the bark from the tree. Being the ‘vascular’ part of the tree it, like our blood vessels, the tree no longer has a supply line for nutrients. The tree, that you enjoyed so much throughout the year, dies.

First we tap a stout needle into the tree, near the base. Then we inject a pesticide into the vascular system in multiple places around the base of the tree. Each tree needs to be treated. A treatment lasts for one year.
All of this can be avoided. Call us, don’t let your tree suffer!
