ZONING THE OCEAN

A soldier’s life

BY MARY FAITH BELL

Nov. 7 meeting to discuss impacts of Territorial Sea Plan

mfbell@countrymedia.net

Merle Graham, 86, of Pacific City had such a hard childhood that he was “the happiest guy in the world,” when he enlisted in the Navy in 1944. “It was the first time in my life that I had shoes and pants and a haircut, three meals a day and a little money in my pocket. I thought I had it made. The other guys thought I was nuts or stupid because I was so happy.”

Merle Graham and his wife, Merle was born in Portland, Feb. 12, Dorothy, at home in Pacific City.

1926 The oldest of eleven children, the first

BY JOE WRABEK jwrabek@countrymedia.net

On Thursday, Nov. 8, the Tillamook County Futures Council will hold a public meeting on the Territorial Sea Plan — specifically, the inclusion of an area offshore of Pacific City and Neskowin as suitable for development of ocean energy generating facilities. The meeting will be held in the Officers’ Mess building at the Port of Tillamook Bay, beginning at 6 p.m.

The Territorial Sea Plan and ocean energy development haven’t been big items on most Tillamook County residents’ radar, though both issues have been in the works for a while, according to county commissioner Tim Josi, who chairs a state Territorial Sea Plan Advisory Committee (TSPAC) and Pacific City resident David Yamamoto, who’s an “atlarge citizen” member of the same committee.

ROCKAWAY ROCKAWAY

Merle Graham reflects on a tough childhood, a traveling carnival, and battle on the shores of Japan

thing Merle will tell you about his childhood is “My mother chose the wrong husband. I never knew my mom when she wasn’t pregnant, and my father was gone most of the time. He only came home to get her pregnant again. There were 11 kids all together, but she had more; some of them died.

“I was the oldest, so I had to help my mom raise my brothers and sisters. I spent my whole childhood just trying to get food.

“I don’t like to talk about my childhood because I did some bad things. I stole food.

I had to, we were starving.

“We lived by the railroad tracks down on 21st Street just off Powell, and Libby’s cannery was up the street. There was a fence with barbed wire around the cannery.

I used to go over the fence and toss cans of food to my little brother. He’d be on the other side with a gunny sack.

“I sold newspapers on the street. I had to buy them first and then sell them downtown on street corners. I was a little kid.

Men would beat me up and steal my money.

Chili & Chowder Benefit this Saturday

BY JOE WRABEK jwrabek@countrymedia.net

T

hey’re calling it “Rockaway 2 Rockaway.” The community of Rockaway Beach, Oregon, is putting on a fund-raiser for disaster relief in “the other Rockaway” -- in New York -- which was devastated by Hurricane Sandy last week.

Dave Farr and Kristine Hayes are the ringleaders, but “it’s just a bunch of volunteers from everywhere,” Farr said.

The volunteers’ Chili & Chowder Benefit Dinner will be held Saturday, November 10 at the Rockaway Beach Civic Center, from 4 to 7 p.m.

Destruction along the Rockaway Beach, NY boardwalk.

There’s no price for the dinner, it’s by donation.

“You can come and eat and not donate, too,” Farr said. “But we hope you’ll donate.”

Rockaway, New York -- the name comes from a local Native American word for “our place” -was settled in 1830. It’s now part of the Borough of Queens in New York City. Sitting on a peninsula jutting out into the ocean, it was hit hard by the hurricane. “There is ZERO power, heat, phones, internet, water or cell phone service,” White Plains resident Elyssa Hothe wrote after taking a carload of donated items to the stricken community.

“Rockaway is truly cut off from the rest of the world.”

Rockaway Beach, Oregon was named after the

one in New York, Farr said. (Manhattan Beach and Brighton are named after New York beaches, too.)

The two Rockaways have been considered “sister cities.”

The Rockaway Beach, Oregon Fire Department is trying to contact the fire department back there, but there is still no telephone service. “We want to give to somebody who will use 100 percent of the money to help,” he said. “Every penny (we raise) is going to the community of Rockaway.”

The band Coaster will perform at the event, and the Neah-Kah-Nie High School FBLA is involved as well, Hayes said.

Train engine to be restored for use on the coast

MARY FAITH BELL/HEADLIGHT HERALD

No. 45, a 1906 Baldwin locomotive, was offloaded at Port of Tillamook Bay Oct. 26.

TILLAMOOK FARMERS’ CO-OP

The latest addition to the Oregon Coast Scenic Railroad’s locomotive “fleet” sits lonely and a little battered in front of the blimp hangar at the Port of Tillamook Bay. And it’s not OCSR’s, yet. “It’s a joint venture by two OCSR members,” chief mechanical officer Scott Wickert said.

“OCSR has another restoration in front of this one,” he said.

“This one” is “No. 45,” a 1906 Baldwin locomotive originally built for the Polson Logging Company of Hoquiam, Washington (later part of Rayonier Corp.). Rayonier donated the engine to the city of Hoquiam, where it was on “static display” from 1962 to 1998 in a city park — much like the “Old 90” locomotive in Garibaldi’s Lumbermen’s Park, Wickert said, which also came from Polson Logging. Wickert said he helped remove the Baldwin from Hoquiam’s

park when it was donated to the Mt. Rainier Scenic Railroad for restoration, “but they picked a different loco to restore.” The Baldwin locomotive was offloaded at the Port of Tillamook Bay Oct. 26.

Wickert is one of the partners in the “joint venture.” The other is Chris Baldo, a California resident who is also a member of OCSR. “It will require a total rebuild from the frame up,” Wickert said. He estimated the restoration would be a 5-6 year project.

When originally built, the Baldwin was a wood-burning locomotive, he said, but was later converted to use oil for fuel.

Once restored, it will still be an oil-burner, Wickert said, just like the rest of OCSR’s “fleet.”

The Oregon Coast Scenic Railroad needs the additional engines because it’s not just a 13-mile railroad from Garibaldi to Wheeler any more, Wickert said.

A drenching downpour, although problematic, didn’t stop upwards of 50 local, county and state officials from gathering at Roy Creek Oct. 30 to celebrate the successful completion of the bridge on Foss Road over the Nehalem River tributary, which will vastly improve fish migration.

“This is really a big deal,” said Sen. Betsy Johnson of the decade-long effort. Johnson praised the agencies and governmental entities for their collaboration, saying, “This goes to show what we can accomplish when we work together.”

The quest to improve fish passage at Roy Creek underneath Foss Road and the railroad tracks that run alongside had been on the agenda of the Lower Nehalem Watershed Council (LNWC) for nearly a decade. In 2001, the LNWC was awarded a technical assistance grant from the Oregon Watershed Enhancement Board (OWEB) to design the Roy Creek crossing to help facilitate fish migration.

PHOTO BY DAVE FISHER

George Hemingway, president of the Lower Nehalem Watershed Council, addresses the crowd gathered for the dedication of the new bridge at Roy Creek, which will improve fish passage on the tributary of the Nehalem River.

The existing culverts were beginning to decay and became misaligned over the years changing the flow rates and making it impossible for fish to get upstream to spawn, according to George Hemingway, board president of the LNWC. The Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife had rated the replacement of the Roy

Creek/Foss Road crossing as one of the highest priority restoration projects in Tillamook County. The culverts blocked access of high potential spawning and rearing habitat for endangered and threatened salmon species in the Lower Nehalem. The crossing consisted of two six-foot diameter culverts, stacked on top of

multiple smashed and derelict culverts. The undersized culverts perched at lower river flows impeded sediment transport and presented a velocity barrier.

Interestingly, the new 40foot span is “a modern-day version of what existed in 1941,” when a railroad trestle, prior to the installation of the culverts, spanned the creek allowing it to run free underneath, Nehalem Mayor Shirley Kalkhoven said.

Although Tillamook County has jurisdiction authority for Foss Road, the Roy Creek crossing design took into account a multitude of additional interests. Aside from the road itself, the design also considered the railroad that is owned and operated by the Port of Tillamook Bay is now under contract to the Oregon Coast Scenic Railroad; a waterline for the nearby cities of Manzanita and Wheeler; a Nehalem Telephone Company communication line, and a WCI Cable fiber optic cable line.

Coming up with a design early on that met the criteria for an adequate railroad crossing

and followed the construction timeline (less than 24-hour implementation time) desired by the Port of Tillamook at the time proved to be a difficult task. Because of the associated implementation costs and construction timeline considerations, the project stalled.

It breathed new life with the effective shut down of the rail line in December 2007, following a major storm that unleashed floodwaters, destroying large sections of the roadbed in the mountainous area of the Salmonberry River Canyon. During the storm, the Salmonberry Bridge washed out, limiting the operations of the Port of Tillamook Bay railroad. This allowed for much more flexibility in construction timelines, and renewed interest in getting the fish passage project finished. Tillamook County Public Works in partnership with the LNWC, solicited bids and awarded the job to the engineering firm Parametrix, based in Portland, whose bid

City of Tillamook, Fred Meyer plan first ‘Light Parade’

BY JOSIAH DARR sports@orcoastnews.com

Tillamook Fred Meyer, the City of Tillamook and Rotary Club of Tillamook are sponsoring the first Oregon Coast Festival of Lights Parade on Dec. 1. It’s planned to be a family event to help support the Salvation Army of Tillamook and the Tillamook County Food Bank.

The theme of the event is “Bring light to the table, one meal at a time.”

“I’ve been pushing for a parade aspect for the last three years,” said Tillamook Mayor Suzanne Weber. “The June Dairy Parade has so many trucks and I thought it’d be great if we could feature them in Christmas season as well.

“The idea never really took off until the Fred Meyer employee committee took off with the idea and spearheaded the event.”

Fred Meyer employees were open to the idea and happy to help, according to cashier and volunteer committee member Theresa Nelson.

“It all started when I’d seen the Salem-Keiser parade and they used entry fees to get food

for the local food pantries,” Nelson said. “We wanted to do something that would accomplish two goals – provide food and give people a fun family event they didn’t have to pay for. This accomplished both, and when it was pitched to our committee, they jumped all over it.”

The parade will start at 5:30 p.m. and is being timed in conjunction with the City of Tillamook’s Lighting of the Downtown Courthouse Square.

Those festivities will begin at 4:30 p.m. Dec. 1.

Citizens are encouraged to enter their personal cars or trucks into the parade with their best Christmas lights on display.

To enter a car or truck, an

entry form must be completed and given to the Tillamook Rotary Club as well as a donation of 50 non-perishable food items per entry.

The vehicles will be judged in three different categories.

The Chamber of Commerce Trophy will go to the entry with the “best use of theme.” The Mayor’s Trophy will go to the vehicle deemed to have the “best illumination.” Finally, the Fred Meyer Trophy will go to the “best of show.”

The winner will be able to display their trophy in their home or business until the event takes place next year.

There will also be a “food war” between the entries. The group that brings in the most food beyond their entry fee will also received trophies.

These trophies will be presented at the “After Glow Party” at the Fred Meyer Garden Center following the parade.

“The After Glow Party will have candy canes, hot chocolate, Santa, music and cookies,” Nelson said. “We encourage anyone to come and mingle and get in the holiday spirit.”

2013

That type of holiday excitement from the Fred Meyer employees didn’t go unnoticed

by Tillamook’s mayor.

“I think it’s so exciting to see the Fred Meyer employees exhibiting such community spirit,” Weber said.

While some vehicles might have the needed outlets and available power to run a light show worthy of a top prize, others may not. But because a vehicle isn’t currently powered for a Christmas lights show doesn’t mean it can’t be.

“People can easily purchase a power inverter which they can wire to their car battery and they’d have plenty of power to run whatever they wanted,” said NAPA sales associate Brad Walker. “An inverter that would produce 3,000 watts would cost around $400 and

t (BNF $BTFT t .BKPS 'FMPOJFT

it’s readily available. A smaller one that would produce 1,000 watts would run about $164. It just depends on how many lights someone wants and how big they want to go with it.”

Other options for power would be smaller inverters that would plug into the cigarette lighter in a car. Those smaller inverters are far less expensive and are available at almost any electronics store.

Anyone who’d like to be involved in the parade without a lighted vehicle can walk or dance along the route, as long as they are within in the posted rules.

came in at $654,000. Work commenced earlier this spring and the project, completed in October, came in on budget.

“The completion of this project marks one more advance in the restoration of fish passage and the preservation of upstream habitat in the Nehalem basin. By this project, 2.5 miles of habitat will be restored and reopened,” Hemingway told the crowd assembled for the dedication, most of whom boarded the Oregon Coast Scenic Railroad train in Wheeler that made the 20minute trek to Roy Creek County Park.

“This just shows what can be done when people at the local community level, stakeholders and leaders, are encouraged and aided by government agencies at all levels. It is bottom up and grassroots thinking, aided by county, state and federal experts and funds. What an idea…very Oregonian,” Hemingway noted.

Thoughts on an election complaint

C

andidate for Tillamook County sheriff, Bill Spidal, has filed a complaint with the Secretary of State Elections Division over a campaign ad paid for by Sheriff’s Office staff. If you subscribe to the newspaper, you can read the nuts and bolts of the complaint here: http://www.tillamookheadlightherald.com/news_paid/article_0fb68548-205e-11e2-8f77-0 019bb2963f4.html But here’s my two cents.

First off, Andy Long wasn’t involved at all in these ads. He couldn’t (wouldn’t) be, because that would be violating Oregon statutes that prohibit elected officials from pressuring public employees to vote a certain way.

That was one of Bill Spidal’s first complaints on the Headlight Herald online message boards, but he soon dropped that argument and it does not appear in his official elections complaint.

If Long had been involved, it would be a much bigger issue than the complaint we’re currently discussing.

I see no validity to the argument that Long should have known something was wrong.

This is not the first time Sheriff’s Office employees have gotten together to stand behind their sheriff. They did it for Todd Anderson back when he was running for office, too.

Then – as now – I believe the staff thought they were doing everything by the book. The candidate wasn’t involved, didn’t pressure them or ask them to do it. The staff didn’t do it “on the clock” or at the office.

And – a key point here – they signed their names to the ad.

Campaign finance laws exist so that people can know who is funding campaigns. Clearly, there was no intent to break the law – the staff wanted everyone to know who funded it. That’s the whole point of the ad.

I can understand why the deputies were confused. I read the ORS about campaign funding three times (it’s pretty darn long) and came away with a different understanding after each reading. It’s complicated.

Nowhere does it specifically say that a non-candidate group of people spending any amount of money needs to register as “political committee.” They should

add that to the FAQ. I only gleaned that information from a media spokesperson.

So, technically, if you and your sister go in together for a $50 cusSamantha tom campaign Swindler Director of News sign in support of your neighbor who’s running for City Council – on your own, without your neighbor’s knowledge – you need to register as a political committee.

Or maybe not. The law is confusing.

That’s the only issue up for review by the elections division – did a group of people spend money to fund a political campaign (clearly, yes) and did they fail to register as a political committee (clearly, yes.)

I predict the group will be found in violation of the law, for the simple fact of not filing the right paperwork. And the “penalty,” if any, will be insignificant. Certainly, there was no intent to break the law by hiding who contributed to the ad – while intent probably won’t be a mitigating factor considered by the Secretary of State in determining whether the law was broken, it might be when assessing a penalty.

Spidal also complains that the group didn’t keep accurate records of exactly how much money was contributed by each person who signed the ad. I’ve been told the amounts ranged from $5 to $20 – some folks likely signed and didn’t chip in any money but wanted to show their support. I have no doubt that the people who signed that ad thought they were abiding by the law, and because the individual contribution amounts were so small, they figured detailed record keeping wasn’t necessary.

And because the law is so difficult to understand, I’m still not sure if it was.

But I am sure that we shouldn’t miss the most important message in all of this. Sixtyeight people who work or volunteer with the Sheriff’s Office put their name to that ad, and they want you to know they support Andy Long.

Rainy Day Books, you will be missed When I first moved out to the coast, I didn’t even know it existed. My father (who was visiting) discovered it... and ever since I was glad he found it.

I still remember the day I stumbled across a two-volume book set that I hadn’t seen since childhood. I lost count of the hours spent as a kid meandering through them; I thought they were gone forever, and yet there they were, sitting on a shelf in the back, on the lower level. They now sit securely in my bookshelf here at home, a guilty pleasure that I indulge in on occasion.

The best part is, that place is positively packed with books that can very easily distract a man (or woman, or...) for years on end.

It’s sad that they’re going to close. All Good Things, I suppose... This stands as a reminder to get my butt down

there, post-haste.

To the fine folks who have tended the wee store for so long? Thank you. While I wish you wouldn’t close, I want you to know that you’ve done a superb job of things, and you have my fondest wishes and regards.

Beware of debit card scammers This is not a Halloween story but it can be just as scary.

We have scammers amongst us. ”Jackie” phoned me to inform me that I had a refund of approximately $1,100 coming and needed my debit card number to deposit it into my account. I was excited and did not heed to my inner voice until later.

She wanted a debit card if for drawing from my account, not for deposit!

If I had a refund from the Oregon Department of Rev-

enue I would receive a letter and two or three weeks later would receive the check.

Realizing this, I cancelled my debit card. I was informed by my tax consultant of “no refund” from state or fed’s. I contacted the Sheriff’s Office with all the info. Along with her name, address, phone number and partner in crime. My credit is so bad that I don’t believe I need to worry, but beware, don’t let it happen to you.

Making giving easy

by Jon Carnahan, President Emeritus and Executive Director of the TBCC Foundation We recently had our annual Mildred Davy Memorial Luncheon to recognize our donors and scholars and to thank those who have contributed to the success and support of student scholarship at Tillamook Bay Community College. We were able to recognize Allison Hinderer and Aaron Bumbach, who received the Mildred Davey Endowed Scholarships for 2012-13 and twelve other scholarship recipients who attended. A total of 49 students this year received scholarships. We were also able to announce the newest Endowment Scholarship program, the MilneSears Endowment from South County.

Through your gifts the Foundation is able to support these students. As we complete our Annual Campaign at the end of this year, please consider the follow.

Giving before year-end packs a double punch. First, you will be supporting the works and dreams of Tillamook Bay Community College or your charity of choice. Second, tax incentives may enable you to do more than you realized was possible, even improving your own financial position in the process. The availability of the income tax deduction helps a charitable person be even more charitable.

Here is How It Works If you itemize deductions, a gift is deductible in the year you make it.

Generally, the effect of the deduction is

that the higher your income tax bracket, the more you will save in taxes. Many states also allow an income tax deduction for charitable gifts, so the total tax savings are often higher than those generated by the federal income tax deduction alone. If you have had to take the standard deduction in past years, giving more may increase your deductions above the standard.

This qualifies you for a greater tax benefit.

You Can Give in a Variety of Ways Gifts of Cash: Nothing is as simple and direct as giving cash. You can make an unrestricted donation, and we will use the gift to meet our greatest current need. Or you may designate a gift for a specific Endowment Fund or purpose. A gift of cash may be deductible up to 50 percent of your adjusted gross income, and gifts in excess of 50 percent may be carried over as deductions into the next five years.

Gifts of Securities: Stocks or other investments that have grown in value and that you have owned longer than one year can become a substantial gift with a low net cost to you. You receive a charitable deduction for the donation, which is based on the stocks’ fair market value on the date of the gift. And, there is a bonus—you eliminate all federal capital gains tax that would otherwise be owed on a sale of the assets.

Gifts of Real Estate: Perhaps your first thought is that you do not own property near our location. The fact is, almost any real estate—developed or undeveloped—is potentially a charitable gift. If you have owned your home or other real estate for a long time, it likely has significantly increased in value. Donate the property outright, place it in trust or retain the use of it for life. All of these methods will enable you to enjoy financial benefits while supporting our work and our future students.

Effectively Timing Your Gift If you are issuing a check to a charitable organization, the effective date of your contribution is the date it is hand-delivered or mailed. Stock that is held in electronic form can be transferred through your broker to an account in the college foundation or another charitable organization’s name.

The value and date of the gift are determined by the date of the transfer, which is generally the date the securities are received in our account. The actual date of a gift of real estate is the date you deliver the signed deed.

For more information, please feel free to me at the college. I can help you plan and implement a year-end charitable gift that takes advantage of valuable tax benefits and reflects your generous spirit.

The buzz about the Beekeepers Association

BY PETER B. SMITH For the Headlight Herald

W

ondering where all the bees have gone? Looking for fresh local honey?

Thinking you’d like to start your own backyard hives, or just want information on beekeeping? You can get that and more from real, live beekeepers at the monthly meetings of The Tillamook County Beekeepers Association.

Our local “apiarists” (beekeepers) meet in Bay City, the second Tuesday of each month, 7 p.m. at ArtSpace, (corner of US 101 and Forth Street).

At a recent Tuesday evening meeting, nineteen people gathered including ArtSpace owners, Craig and Trisha Kaufman, also avid beekeepers.

Giving a brief history, Bob Allen, the Association’s President said “the group began in 1977, after a beekeeping class at the college. When it ended several students decided to start a club and The Tillamook County Beekeepers Association was born. Later they became affiliated with the state organization, The Oregon State Beekeepers Association.”

Meetings are informal. A new couple interested in beekeeping introduced themselves, while another longtime couple who had developed an allergic reaction to stings (anaphylaxis) announced they were leaving. The husband described his wife’s recent, potentially fatal bee sting, a quick injection from an EpiPen (which contains epinephrine), and a high-speed trip to Tillamook County General Hospital Emergency Room that saved her life. EpiPen’s are standard equipment, cautioned the couple as they passed one around for the group to examine.

Next the discussion turned to parasitic mites that are threatening bee colonies in Oregon and around the world. Domestic honeybees pollinate 80 percent of Oregon’s crops - fruit and nut trees, cucumbers, broccoli, onions, pumpkins, carrots - about 40 crops in all. The bee mite invasion has created what’s called Colony Collapse Disorder, threatening the state’s yearly $400 million agriculture industry.

Nationwide the figure jumps to $15 billion. Bee loss would be a global financial catastrophe, but more importantly could trigger worldwide starvation. Mites (several varieties), emerging viruses, inadequate food supplies, pesticides, plant engineering (GMO), pollution and resistance to traditional mitocides now imperil bees.

This evening’s mite focus was on

external Varroa jacobsoni, a critter some members felt could be discouraged by sprinkling powdered sugar over the bees in the hive. Using the sugar method, mites loose their grip, fall to the floor of the hive, and are removed. The Kaufmans favor this natural approach. Other members said they used commercial strips (mitocides) in their hives, choosing a more chemical approach. The natural versus commercial routes, along with some homemade creations are discussed at nearly every meeting. ‘Whatever works’ seems to be the philosophy here. A lot of the meeting operates on the “talk amongst your selves” format.

There’s catching up to do amongst these friends and fellow beekeepers.

Near the meeting’s end, Allen answered the big question, ‘why do people get into beekeeping?’ You’d think most people get into beekeeping for the honey, but Allen says no. “People look around their place and they don’t see any honeybees. If you get into it because you want a bunch of honey it’s probably not going to happen. You get in it because you like working with the bees.”

Later, at his Garibaldi home, standing by two backyard hives, Allen explained a big part of the commercial bee business is not just honey produc-

tion, but moving hives around (hives numbering in the hundreds) from field to field to pollinate crops. “They start out with almonds down in Northern California - January, February and March - then they pick up the fruit trees in Hood River, Southern Oregon, and Washington. When that’s over they begin pollinating different vegetable crops that come on after that.

Commercial operations that spray insecticides and weed killers need to use chemicals that won’t hurt bees.

When they spray they’re supposed to notify the beekeepers, so they can remove the hives, but often they don’t.

“Lot of times they just spray, they don’t care,” Allen says.

This year and last year were not good for local honey production, noted Allen, who recently had 300 hives in the nearby countryside torn up by seven bears. “I was left with 150 hives.” In spite of the challenges, Allen has no intention of giving up bees. In addition to beekeeping Allen is also a Master Gardener.

Terry Fullan, another local beekeeper, shared thoughts on beekeeping from his Nehalem area home.

Fullan’s beekeeping adventure began fifteen years ago with a nonproducing apple tree in his yard. “It’s loaded with fruit, but when I got here

Car crashes into house

BY MARY FAITH BELL mfbell@countrymedia.net

At approx. 3:40 p.m. on Fri. Nov. 2 Nehalem Bay Fire and Rescue responded to the scene of an accident on Hwy 101 in front of Brighton Moorage.

When they arrived they found a driverless vehicle crashed into a house.

A motor home driven by Stan Morgan and his wife was northbound when it rounded a curve and the vehicle behind the motor home came loose, ran over two logs and into the house. Working in the house were Jeff Torence from Hillsboro and Roshan Solan from Aloha. They said they were about ten feet from the crash and ran to the other side of the house.

No one was injured in the accident.

Nehalem Bay Fire and Rescue, Tillamook County Sheriff, Tillamook Ambulance and a State Trooper responded.

it wasn’t. Very few bees, no pollination.” He got some bees and started researching and buying books on beekeeping.

Moving to a bookcase with over a hundred volumes, Fullan began pulling out some favorites. “Following the Bloom, gives people an idea what commercial beekeeping is like; “The Hive and the Honeybee” is by Eva Krane. She was given a beehive as wedding present. She was a physicist and she went on a lifelong quest for the origin of beekeeping. Honeybees aren’t native to America. They arrived on the Mayflower. The Indians called them the white man’s fly.”

Holding up Nectar and Pollen Plants of Oregon, begged the question what’s for dinner if you’re a bee.

“Well, by summer’s end they’re on the tail end of dandelions, thistles and knotweed,” said Fullan. “By late August the season is winding down for them. The queen is laying fewer eggs. By the first week of October the queen starts throwing out a lot of the males.” Maybe fifty percent of the male population is ejected from the hive as winter approaches. “The female worker bees gather the pollen and nectar, the queen lays the eggs.

This is a matriarchal world.”

On the property there are enough hives to supply his home operation.

Fullan’s honey extraction and candle making are done in a small processing plant around the corner from the house. The place is well ordered and amazingly clean, considering the

sticky, resinous nature of honey. Several batches of honey, each with its own flavor, await processing in a barrel-shaped centrifuge that spins honey out of frames at up to 100 rpm’s. Later the remaining wax is poured into candle molds. Fullan, a carpenter, with his partner, graphic designer Lorraine Ortiz, sell honey and candles at local farmer’s markets.

In addition to selling honey and candles, Fullan takes his hives around to pollinate area crops. Costs for this service have risen everywhere as bee die-off continues, both he and Allen agree. Fullan spoke passionately about education. “We’re the ninth state in the U.S. to have a master beekeeping program. It’s at Oregon State University and it’s available to anyone in Tillamook County right now. I’m a mentor, Bob Allen’s a mentor. It’s a great program with all kinds of educational opportunities. OSU and the Oregon State Beekeepers Association run it. The Tillamook group is a charter member. Right now there’s a huge grant available, there’s money for training, it’s a great time for people to enter beekeeping. Bob Allen is a Master Gardner. We really need to encourage pollinators like him to get into that program and start spreading information.”

Late September, and bee activity is winding down. In the backyard of their historic Bay City home Craig Kaufman dons a protective beekeepers outfit, and lifts a honeycomb frame from one of ten hives. The honeyfilled frames are covered with a protective substance called propolis.

“Honey and wax is amazing enough,” says Trisha Kaufman, the other half the couple’s bee operation, “but they also make this amazing stuff, propolis.”

Propolis is an antibiotic substance that covers the hexagonal wax honeycomb cells and prevents bacteria from getting inside the hive. A folk remedy for centuries, Trisha says that used on the skin, propolis is good for “burns, inflammations and scalds,” and taken internally it “strengthens your immune system.”

Bob Allen gave the Kaufmans their first bees a few years ago. Back across the street at “ArtSpace” Craig prepares to spin a frame. Last year they bottled up eighty pounds of honey.

The Kaufman’s don’t use chemical pesticides in their operation. Trisha summarized their approach to beekeeping, “We just let bees be bees.”

OBITUARIES

From 1964 through 1965, Pat and Art lived on Valderoy, Norway, with their son, Karl.

She always told friends that the year in Norway was one of the most enjoyable experiences of her life.

In 1983 they moved to Bay City, where Art had grown up as a boy, and they build a home for themselves at 5620 Main Street.

Pat, along with Art, was very active with the Tillamook Sons of Norway Lodge.

Art passed away on March 19, 2005.

It was in 2007, while still in grief counseling, that Pat met Marv Stuber, who had recently lost his wife to cancer.

Near the end of 2007 she began living with Marv in his home in Garibaldi. The camping trips the two shared near Yakima, Washington, and the dances on Friday nights at the Garibaldi Community Center were among her most enjoyable times with Marv, who had become her beloved companion and caregiver. She told many that the last 4 ½ years of her life, spent with Marv, were the best years of her life. The two remained inseparable, and were together until her passing.

Pat is survived by her beloved companion, Marv Stuber, of Garibaldi, son, Karl, of Bay City, grandson Jason, of Port Orford, Or., granddaughter Autumn, of Sutherlin, Or., grandson Levi, of Carson, Wa., and great grandson, Aksel, of Sutherlin.

She was preceded in death by her parents, husband, Arthur Anderson, and her sister, Joan Phillips-McCann.

A memorial service and celebration of the life of Pat Anderson will be held on Monday, Nov. 12, at 11 a.m., at the Bay City United Methodist Church, located at 5695 D Street, followed by an informal potluck reception at Bay City Hall.

THS student suffers head injury

BY MARY FAITH BELL mfbell@countrymedia.net

Tillamook High School senior Markus Pullen was seriously injured in an accident Saturday night in the Fred Meyer parking lot when he fell from the back of a car and hit his head on the pavement.

The accident was reported at 10:57 p.m.

According to the police report, Pullen and the driver of the car (a minor who is not being named), were covering a friend’s car with toilet paper before the friend got off work at Fred Meyer; the driver offered to drive Pullen a short distance to his (Pullen’s) car. Reportedly, Pullen said he didn’t want to get in the car, but hopped onto the trunk instead to ride to his car. He fell en route and hit his head.

Pullen was transported to Tillamook County

OCEAN:

General Hospital, and transferred to Legacy Emanuel Hospital in Portland in critical condition. He was unconscious and unresponsive until Sunday afternoon, when he regained consciousness. As of Monday morning classmates reported that Pullen was coherent, he recognized people in his hospital room, and he remembered his class schedule.

No traffic citations were issued at the scene; however, the case was forwarded to the District Attorney’s office and the juvenile department.

The accident occurred on property open to the public rather than on a road, so it was not a traffic violation, but other charges may apply. For example, there is a city ordinance in place that prohibits riding on a vehicle not designed or intended for the use of passengers when in motion.

There was no evidence of alcohol use.

The “Territorial Sea” is an area stretching from the beach to three miles offshore, where the State of Oregon has jurisdiction—an area 1,260 square miles in extent. Some five years ago, energy companies began approaching the state and the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) about using parts of the Territorial Sea for energy projects—“and the state had no regulations,” Yamamoto said. There was a Territorial Sea Plan, but “it was about fisheries, conservation areas, Marine Reserves.” The state decided to amend the Plan to include regulation of ocean energy development. For its part, FERC agreed to not permit any further ocean energy generating facilities (they’d already permitted one, offshore from Reedsport) until the state finished its work.

That work is almost done.

“We’re at the endgame,” Yamamoto said.

“We did get directives from the governor’s office to find areas where ocean energy industry could do some work,” Yamamoto said. The problem, he said, is “the ocean’s a pretty busy place. There are no areas not being used. It created a big problem.” The Oregon Wave Energy Trust (OWET), a nonprofit chaired by a PGE official, came up with 13 areas they wanted to see development in, he said; two of those are offshore of Tillamook County.

One, between Pacific City and Neskowin, is still under consideration (the other, offshore from Tillamook Bay, was scrapped).

“For six months, one of the mantras has been ‘need to spread the pain,’” Yamamoto said, citing the insistence on having at least one energy site offshore of each of Oregon’s seven coastal counties. “That’s not the way to develop policy.

You need to do it logically.”

Wave energy may make most sense in southern Oregon, he suggested, where deepwater ports can be home base for maintenance equipment. Wave energy generators will require a high degree of maintenance, he suggested.

There is no longer a wave energy site proposed in each county, however. Only five are still under serious consideration, OWET executive director Jason Busch said, but one of those is the area offshore of Pacific City and Neskowin in Tillamook County. “It’s actually quite good for ocean energy,” Busch said, citing the closeness of transmission lines and a substation. “If you’re going to do near-shore technology, this is one of the best sites.”

The impact on fishing wasn’t known, Busch said,

because local fishermen hadn’t provided any data. “The state’s map was created before the fishermen’s map was submitted.

I digitized it,” Busch said, “but the state doesn’t give their data the same significance as others’ data.” Since then, the Pacific City Dorymen’s Association has weighed in, claiming that any wave energy development between Cascade Head and Cape Lookout would harm the local fishing industry. “Once populated by ocean energy arrays, fishing will not be welcome,” Yamamoto said. “We may be signing the death knell of the dory fleet,” he suggested.

“It doesn’t displace anybody until you put something in the water,” Busch countered.

“When they do put a project in the water, fishing may be compatible with it.” Busch suggested proceeding in a different direction. “What we have proposed is to stop prescriptive siting,” Busch countered. “Start with a larger patch of water and call it a ‘suitability zone,’ and say you have to work with local stakeholders.”

The Futures Council got involved because “Tim Josi came to the Futures Council and asked us to keep residents of Tillamook County up to speed on the process,” Yamamoto said. When TSPAC scheduled three “final” public workshops, none of them were in Tillamook County (they’re in Astoria, North Bend, and Newport). Futures Council’s chair, Shirley Kalkhoven, approached the county commissioners about holding a workshop of its own, in Tillamook County. All three commissioners said yes.

Four speakers have been tapped for the workshop: Lincoln County commissioner Terry Thompson (“one of the best fishing industry reps,” Yamamoto said), OWET’s executive director Jason Busch, Newport city councilmember David Allen (a member of TSPAC and also chair of an older state Ocean Policy Advisory Committee working group), and Doug Olson of Pacific City, who’s a board member of Tillamook PUD. “I’ll be a fifth speaker,” Yamamoto said. “I’ll give a brief background of how we got where we are today, and I’ll probably end with my own views.” Public comment will probably be half the estimated 3-hour meeting. Some state legislators have said they’ll attend, Yamamoto said. Richard Whitney, the governor’s natural resource advisor, is also expected to attend.

“Whatever your feelings about ocean energy, you need to be there,” Yamamoto said. “The decision really belongs to

coastal residents.”

The November 8 workshop will be videotaped by Jane Scott, and Kalkhoven herself will take a DVD of the meeting and copies of any written material to Salem the next day, she said. “(The state) said they need all public input,” she said.

“They’ll get it.”

TSPAC is expected to make a final recommendation to the state Land Conservation & Development Commission (LCDC) on November 15, when that body meets in McMinnville. That meeting will be at the McMinnville Civic Center, 230 NE Second St., and begins at 8 a.m. According to their Website, LCDC will not actually make a decision until a later—and unspecified—date.

TSPAC can support three wave energy sites that are already in development, Yamamoto said. The Oregon Military Department wants the site offshore of Camp Rilea, in Clatsop County, in order to have an independent power source in an emergency. Off Newport, a consortium headed

by Oregon State University has a test site, where companies can connect equipment to an “Ocean Sentinel” device and test it under real-world conditions; that area could be enlarged, Yamamoto said. And there’s the “OPT site” off shore of Reedsport, where FERC permitted a wave-generation facility before the Memorandum of Understanding was signed with the state. Ten “power buoys” are in place now, he said, with the possibility of 40 in the future.

Other sites are “highly contentious,” Yamamoto said.

For his part, county commissioner Tim Josi, who is also a member of the governorappointed LCDC, worries that determined opposition to the Pacific City site could make the Territorial Sea Plan amendment process fall apart. “If there’s no deal in Tillamook County, fishermen to the north and south may say ‘no deal,’ too. It goes down the tube and FERC does the permitting. The state has no say,” Josi said.

OCSR now has charge of 48 miles of rail line, from the Port of Tillamook Bay’s industrial park to Enright, up in the coast Range. 35 miles of that is open, from the Port of Tillamook Bay to Batterson. The track has been mostly cleared (“It’s a jungle up there,” Wickert said), and trips into the Coast Range are

planned for next year.

“We’re working with the trail coalition,” Wickert said.

“There will be a trail next to the tracks.” OCSR has been willing to haul materials for the trail construction. “Everybody’s got a lot invested here,” he said. “I’m glad we’re part of the coalition now.”

Alderbrook stabber convicted Soldier to work

BY MARY FAITH BELL mfbell@countrymedia.net After a four-day trial, Juan Emigdio Valencia-Ayala, 22, was convicted by a jury of four counts of assault for the stabbings at the Alderbrook Golf Course Restaurant and Bar in October 2011.

Three people were stabbed: Sean Bennett, Joshua Roberts and Sissy Vandecoevering. For those crimes Valencia-Ayala was convicted of assault in the first, second and third degrees. First and second degree assaults are Measure 11 crimes, and carry with them mandatory sentences of 90 and 70 months, respectively.

According to Tillamook County DA Bill

LIFE:

Porter, “there was some trial evidence that indicated that ValenciaAyala may have stabbed Sissy Vandecoevering accidentally. Apparently the jury resolved that with the assault in the third degree conviction in that crime.”

Valencia-Ayala was JUAN VALENCIAalso convicted of assault AYALA in the fourth degree for punching Justin Reynolds.

Valencia-Ayala’s defense for the flurry of stabbings was alcohol; his attorney

claimed that he was in an alcoholic blackout, and therefore was not responsible for his actions. According to Porter, “the jury found that despite having voluntarily drank a considerable amount of alcohol, the defendant was still responsible for his behavior.”

A sentencing hearing is scheduled for January 25, 2013, to allow Valencia-Ayala’s attorney to file a sentencing memorandum.

There is an Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) hold on Valencia-Ayala, meaning that the federal government does not consider him a legal citizen. In the case of an ICE hold, a defendant will generally serve his/her sentence, and thereafter may be deported.

“I used to climb under a bridge that goes over the Willamette River, there were birds’ nests on the steel beams, and I’d collect baby squabs from their nests and sell them to a Chinese man for two bits.

“I even sold old steer manure for 50 cents a bag to ladies who wanted compost for their gardens. I’ve worked my whole life, but when I was a kid, I was trying to make money to eat, to get some food to take home. I was always hungry.

“For a while we lived in a big old chicken house in Long Beach, Washington. I learned to swim in the bay up there, where the oysters are. I dove for oysters in the dark with a rope tied to my leg and once in a while someone would come out and try to shoot us for stealing their oysters.

“We moved a lot. I never lived anywhere that didn’t have either bedbugs or cockroaches. I never had a pair of shoes that didn’t have holes in them. I had these wool pants from WWI that itched like crazy.

“I had to fight every time I went to a different school -- and I went to a lot of different schools. When I was six or seven, my dad had a wrestling show. He was a professional wrestler, Chief White Eagle was his wrestling name. He and his friends’d throw us kids up in the ring and make us fight. I didn’t want to fight, but I knew better than to say no to my dad. When he whipped me, oh boy, he had to have somebody stop him. So when it came to me fighting a kid or getting whipped by my dad, well, the other kid better watch out.

“They’d throw us up in the ring and bet on us. When it was over they’d split up the kitty amongst themselves.

“When I was 9 or 10 my dad dropped me off with a traveling carnival. He thought it would toughen me up. He thought I should learn to work, learn about the real world.

“There were about 10 ladies who became my mothers. They took care of me, made sure I ate and kept me clean. I found out years later that they were prostitutes, but they were moms to me. I knew the fat lady with the beard, the tall skinny guy, and the circus strong man, that was my dad.

“My God, he was strong. He bent railroad spikes with his hands. He’d grab a man – any man -- by the wrist and make ‘em drop to the ground crying.

“I ran errands, peeled onions, shoveled elephant poop, tiger and lion poop. I could do tear-down. It got so that that every year I went out with the

carnival in summer. At 16 I was amateur boxing. I boxed grown men. My father had the ad show, which was a wrestling show, and boxing was one of the attractions. I had a bunch of boxing names. They called me Lefty, and Howard and Lucky, depending on where we were.

“Then the War broke out.

When I was about 17 I took training welding and ship fitting. I got a job at Willamette Ship Yards as a shipfitter. I worked on the USS Ozark when it was being built. After about a month of working I joined the Navy, and I sailed out on the ship I’d worked on, the landing ship vehicle USS Ozark, the first of its kind.

Merle was a seaman first class. “I was so happy, I thought the service was wonderful.”

“Our first enemy engagement was with a Kamikaze in the battle of Lingayen Gulf, January 8, 1945.

“About mid-morning General Quarters sounded ‘man your battle stations.’ Soon a twin engine Japanese bomber flew out of the sun dropping bombs over the fleet formation, narrowly missing the ship just ahead of the Ozark. Later that day Japanese bombers and suicide planes attacked the fleet from all points. All hell broke loose! Several Japanese bombers were shot down by the combat air patrol.

“One Japanese plane singled out the transport squadron. The pilot began his death flight, and all guns port side of the Ozark opened fire. The Kamikaze was heading for the ship on our port beam. The amount of ammunition was so terrific you thought you could have walked on it.

Still the plane came on. We were right on him, bullets flying. The end came for him just before he hit the ship. The tail blew up and rocked the plane in its flight path and sent it to its fiery grave.

“I was a bowman on the landing ship vehicle (LSV). We picked up wounded men and transported them to a hospital ship.”

In February the Ozark sailed to Iwo Jima.

“Iwo Jima was the most pathetic place I ever was in my life. The first wave of men were killed. It was terrible. By the time I went in it was indescribable.

“We had a Beach Master who would triage, tell us who to take on 15 stretchers to a boat.

The men were crying, ‘Oh please, give me water, help me, please help me. At Iwo Jima our ship had to move and we couldn’t find it. No one wanted the wounded and the suicide

bombers were everywhere.

“At Okinawa it rained Kamikazes. Japan threw every plane they had at us. Due to the heavy bombardment, we couldn’t hear for days.

“I have the highest respect for medics and doctors. Medics were often deeply religious guys, conscientious objectors.

They worked treating the wounded until they dropped, literally, lay down on a steel deck and slept. Oh my God, the hours those guys put in and what they went through. People lost arms and legs, burials at sea. I got to where it didn’t bother me to see people die, because I saw so many. But it sure bothered me in the beginning.

“FDR said war is hell, and I think man made too much hell.

“Something that’s always bothered me is all the praying you do going into battle: God, please deliver me and I’ll...everyone lies. You swear to God you’ll stop swearing or whatever it is, but then you don’t. And tell me this, if you’re praying to God to help you survive, does that mean the other guy has to die? How is God supposed to choose? Aren’t we all His children?”

Merle still has violent dreams about WWII, though less frequently than he used to.

“It’s not safe to sleep with me,” he said. His wife, Dorothy, said that Merle benefitted in recent years from counseling for Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD); it was particularly helpful to him to talk, to tell the stories that he’d kept bottled up inside him for decades.

“After the Japanese surrendered, we went to Japan and liberated 1,000 allied prisoners of war, including General Wainwright. The POWs were starving, they were dying. Many of them had been in the ‘Death March’ in the Philippines under unbelievable conditions. They had sunken eyes, little pot bellies, skin over skeletons. It was unimaginable, what they’d been through.”

There were approximately 950 POW soldiers and 20 POW nurses aboard the Ozark, and Merle had to try to keep them from eating too much and making themselves sicker.

“I was in charge of seeing that they didn’t go through the line more than once. It was so hard. They’d come up to you with their sunken eyes, and you knew they were starving. You wanted to feed them. We had ‘chits,’ (script for food). Seamen would give the POWs their chits because it made you feel terrible to eat in front of them. I don’t know how many times I

H14885

got in trouble because someone ate too much and got sick. They got into the garbage. We had to post guards on garbage cans. It was terrible.”

The Ozark took the POWs to a hospital in Guam, and then transported them back to America. “I have never seen so much cheering and so many happy faces as we passed under the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco.”

But just because the war was officially over, Merle’s job was not. He continued serving on the Ozark for two tours of the “Magic Carpet,” the operation to bring U.S. servicemen and women home from overseas.

Merle Graham was discharged from the Navy in February of 1946, at 20 years of age.

“I didn’t do anything heroic,” he said, “but I never shirked a duty. I was always quick to volunteer for everything. I liked the Navy, I really did. I was treated well and I willingly did everything I could possibly do.”

Merle’s life after the war has been full and colorful. He was a police officer in Vernonia from 1950-1957. “Those were the days when you could clean out a bar with a fire hose and tie guys up to telephone poles. The loggers would come down from the woods on a flat boxcar.

Soon there’d be a fight between loggers and sawmill workers. I remember one big fight at a dance, there must have been 75 people fighting. I broke it up with a fire hose. It wasn’t long before they wanted to fire me because the loggers didn’t want to come to town anymore.”

Merle has had several interesting careers. He was an investigator for the Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV), where he met his wife, Dorothy. They have been married for 30 years.

After he retired from DMV in 1982, he and Dorothy started a high end property management business. They retired from that business four years ago, and built a house in Pacific City, where their daughter, son-in-law and grandchildren live.

“I’ve climbed mountains, competed in triathlons, and run marathons. Every year we ran races together as a family. I quit running when I was 80.

“I feel great. I’m 86 years old, I have a wonderful wife and I’m a very happy person.”

with women in Afghanistan

BY MARY FAITH BELL mfbell@countrymedia.net Sergeant Amber Rocha of the U.S. Army is being deployed to Afghanistan as part of a ground breaking female engagement team, going in with the express purpose of engaging the female Muslim population.

U.S. armed forces have been in Afghanistan since 2001, following the September 11 terrorist attacks on the United States. For the 11 years that U.S. forces have been in Afghanistan, they have been culturally prohibited from speaking to Afghan women because Afghanistan is a Muslim country, and Muslim women are forbidden to speak to men to whom they are not related. The inability to interact with half of the population has had a limiting effect on the ability of the military to do its job.

The Marines initiated female engagement teams during the war in Iraq, and the Army is mirroring the program in Afghanistan. The model is for a group of female soldiers to undergo extensive cultural training, learning the Pashto language, and learning about Muslim culture and religion, so that they can accompany an infantry battalion in country and interact with Muslim women while on patrol, and provide services to civilians.

Female soldiers are armed, but out of respect for Muslim culture, they wear headscarves to cover their hair. They do not wear burqas -- the total head and body covering garment Muslim women wear -because burqas obscure vision and mobility and would constitute a safety issue for soldiers.

Rocha, a nine-year veteran, is a medical lab technician for the Army. She will provide basic sanitation and first aid assistance to Muslim women.

She volunteered for the female engagement team because “I wanted to deploy with a purpose,” said Rocha. “What better way to actually make a difference in the lives of Afghan people?” she asks. “It’s a complete interaction with the population. Which is scary, I won’t lie. But I want my time away from my family to serve a meaningful purpose, and being one of a small number of military personnel who can engage with the female population in Afghanistan is very meaningful.”

Rocha, who graduated from Tillamook High School in 2002, is “career military.”

She could be eligible for full retirement at the age of 38.

She comes from a dairy farming background. “My great grandparents had a dairy when

they came to the U.S. from the Azores islands. My grandpa had a Jersey dairy, and my family has a dairy here in Tillamook.”

Her grandfather was in the Army for four years. He was stationed at Fort Lewis where she is stationed. “I’m in the same unit that he was in, Unit 4-2 SBCT. I think it’s really cool that my first unit to be deployed with is the unit my grandpa was assigned to.”

Rocha is happy with her career choice. “When I graduated from high school, I didn’t know what I wanted to do.

The Army has been really great to me. The skill set I have is amazing. I have managed a small clinic medical lab, and worked in big hospital labs. I am nationally certified, so I could get a job anywhere in the U.S. I’ve lived in Europe; I lived in Germany for six years, my son was born there. His first ski lessons were in the Austrian Alps when he was three. I’ve spent New Years in Paris, Munich and Prague. I’ve been to dozens of countries.

“I get paid to travel, to go to school, to work out and to change jobs every two years.

Where else could I do that?”

Rocha’s son, Cody Perry, 7, lives with his dad in Pennsylvania during the school year, and spends summers and holidays with her. “I moved around a lot when I was a kid, and I wanted stability for my child. His dad went to the same school from kindergarten through high school, and that’s what I want for Cody.”

When she’s in Afghanistan she’ll keep in touch with Cody via the internet and Skype, which will enable Rocha to talk to her son on camera in real time from half way around the world. Her deployment will last for six months.

Rocha doesn’t think her deployment will have a huge impact on Cody, since he’s accustomed to not seeing her in person for months at a time now.

She thinks about the risks, of course. “The enemy doesn’t wear uniforms over there. Not everyone is Taliban, but you don’t know who they are, and they aren’t going to tell you.”

What scares her is “the idea of getting into a situation that I couldn’t get out of safely.”

But she has confidence in her fellow soldiers. “Those guys would never put us in harm’s way.”

Rocha thanks the friends of Tillamook County service members; “they send me cards and packages at least twice a year, an Easter card and a Christmas package. That means a lot to me. I can tell you, it’s really nice to get something from home.”

Bobcats blank Pirates in final game, 32-0

A wet and muddy field shifted in favor of the Bobcats in the Tillamook County rivalry

BY JOSIAH DARR Headlight Herald Sports

Technically, when the Nestucca Bobcats traveled to Rockaway Beach to take on the Neah-Kah-Nie Pirates in the final game of the season on Nov. 2, there wasn't much riding on the game. Neither team was a potential state title contender. Neither team needed a win to help their chances to make the playoffs. In fact, there was no chance either team would be representing the Northwest League in the playoffs. The teams were taking up the bottom two spots in league going into the game and only had one league win between them. But no player, coach or fan watching that football game would tell you there wasn't a lot on the line, as badly as the Montagues want to beat the Capulets. As fiercely as the Hatfields battled the McCoys, the Bobcats and the Pirates were going to war that fateful night to claim the crown in the Tillamook County rivalry.

This season’s Cheesemaker football team made some solid improvements over last year’s team. They ended with a 4-5 record.

Slightly below their goal of a .500 season, but overall they got some key wins and had a successful season.

“There’s a lot to be proud of,” said second year Tillamook Head Football Coach Matt Dickson. “We worked hard and played hard until the last snap at Banks. The guys never gave up and didn’t let adversity get the better of them. They just kept working and trying to make the next play and get the next big play.

“We had a big win at Newport too, which was a great team effort after a close game with North Marion.”

Much of the success Tillamook had this season can be attributed to the roster being loaded with 19 seniors. Tillamook handed some of those seniors awards at their team award ceremony and potluck at Tillamook High School on Nov. 2. Many awards were voted on by the team and each recipient received their award and the recognition they earned and deserved.

This year’s Offensive Player of the Year was senior tailback Jacob Wassmer. Wassmer had a monster year running the ball even in the losses for the Cheesemakers. He chalked up over 100 yards rushing in over half the games this season, but his total yards are still being tallied.

The Defensive Player of the Year was another senior, Ron Allen. Allen was a vocal leader at linebacker this year keeping the defense together while he covered passes and stuffed runs all season long.

There was little doubt that this season’s Special Teams Player of the Year would be kick returner Jacob Fowler. Fowler’s speed was excellent and he was a threat to get loose every time he touched the football.

The Team Captains, were voted on strictly by the team. Junior quarterback Matt Strang and senior Brock Lorenzo were chosen. Lorenzo’s presence was mostly felt on the defensive side of the ball for Tillamook, while Strang stayed poised all season as he led the Cheesemakers offense.

Also voted by the team was the Most Inspirational Player award. Those honors went to Brock Lorenzo and Skylear Clowers.

Both players were there working and playing hard no matter what the circumstance all season and their teammates were fueled by their efforts.

The Offensive Lineman of the Year Award went to Senior Marcus Cheney.

Offensive lineman are the least appreciated members of a football team, but Cheney didn’t care. He never quit and gave his all on every play all year.

If there was one award that might be the most inspirational and most prodigious team award handed it out, it was Scout Team Captains. These guys gave their best to make the rest of the team as good as they could be in day in and day out. That honor was given to Drew Owens and Skylear Clowers.

“I think the highlight of the year was Matt Strang breaking the school passing record that was held by David Waud's dad in the Clatskanie game,” Dickson said.

There were good times and not-so-good times for the Cheesemakers this year and one of the more depressing pieces of the season is that 19 seniors won’t be back next year.

“It is going to be difficult to replace the seniors on our team,” Dickson said. “It was a great group to work with.”

Tillamook might be losing a lot of players, but they are returning plenty and Dickson likes what he sees for next season.

“Next year we are excited to have back some guys that were starters for us. Matt Strang, David Waud, Issacc Stelflug and Cole Berge,” Dickson said with a smile. “We will be young. The only returning starting linemen are Gabe Bryant and Michael Trusty and we will need to get some guys in the weight room to fill the shoes of Billy Prince, Zack Motsinger, and Marcus Cheney. But, we do have some excellent line prospects in Ely Pesterfield at center, Jeremy Schriber, Lucas Thomas, Dylan Jackman and Steven Flores to name a few.

“We are also looking for big things from Drew Owens, Michael Dooher, Brenton Martindale, Rafael Gomez, Zack Wingate, and AJ Harmon.”

Fishing after floods

BY JOSIAH DARR Headlight Herald Sports

For anyone who’s ever fall chinook fished the Tillamook area rivers, there’s been a point when you were totally unable to fish because of high, dirty water. But any seasoned fishermen knows that with that high water come the salmon. So the question is, when is right time to get back out there on the river to meet the waves of fish coming in as the high water drops? And when you go, how should you target them? It’s actually much easier than it may seem.

First of all, salmon can see much better than we can. So simply because the water looks muddy to you, doesn’t mean the fish can’t see or won't bite. In the contrary, some of the better days are a day or two sooner than many people think they should be fishing.

Now that you’ve braved the big muddy water and you’re on the river, where to fish? The most important thing to remember is the fish will be moving and fish are lazy. So the heavy fast water that is usually so good when the water is medium height or low, isn’t typically the place to be when it’s high. The fish simply don’t want to fight the fast water. Think about concentrating your efforts in the softer water on the edges of the current instead. Especially if you can find deep and slow water near the fast water. If the salmon aren’t there when you get there, they will be by shortly.

Now that you’re at the river and know where the fish are likely to be, how should you target them? If you're bank bound, bobber fishing is the trick.

Larger bobbers and leads, all the way up to three or more ounces can be critical. Pitching these big set ups will keep your bait down to where the fish are even in the heavier and boilier water. And don’t skimp on bait. Large chunks of cured salmon eggs, mixed with sand shrimp and a variety of oils and other secret scents are going to be critical for the fish to find your stuff in the mud.

If you’re in the drift boat or the sled, think low and slow. Back trolling the same big baits and big brightly colored plugs as slow as possible in the same slow water will fill the fish box. Often fishermen think they need to anchor their boats when the water gets high and wait for the fish to come to them. While that does work in some places, anchoring can really foul up the fishing for all the other fishermen on the river. It’s best to keep moving slowly until you find the fish.

If you are lucky enough to get a salmon, try to think what you did to get that fish to bite. How deep was your bobber? What kind of bait did you use? Where were you when you caught it? Salmon fishing typically isn’t much more difficult than A+B=C. Meaning if you can duplicate what you did to catch a fish and continue to do it every time the water conditions are similar, it will probably happen again. Good luck and tight lines!

Ken Kiepke and family wish to express their heartfelt thanks and appreciation to friends and the Beaver community for the flowers, help and support as we say goodbye to Glenda. A loving wife, mother, grandmother and great grandmother.

Coast Guard to hold memorial blood drive A memorial blood drive will be held from 9:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. Friday, Nov. 16 at the Lower US Coast Guard Station in Garibaldi. The blood drive is in memory of Nicolis Pfuntner, brother of Seaman Erin Pfuntner who is stationed at USCG Station Tillamook Bay. In 1998, Nick was diagnosed with a rare disorder called myelofibrosis. The condition required a bone marrow transplant that necessitated blood transfusions. As his condition worsened, more blood transfusions were also needed.

Blood was indeed the gift of life for Nick, though he succumbed to health complications in 2011. He is survived by not only his sister, but also his daughter and parents. Please give blood so others may live.

The American Red Cross is thankful for volunteer blood donors who help save lives by giving a part of themselves. By spending about an hour of your time, you too could make a real difference in the lives of the patients who count on this lifesaving gift.

This incredible act of kindness may allow a total stranger the chance to share another Thanksgiving dinner with family and friends.

In the United States a blood transfusion is needed about every two seconds. Aging baby boomers, sophisticated surgeries, cancer victims, organ transplants, natural disasters, and unforeseen tragedies add to the growing need for blood and highlight the importance of having an adequate supply available. Friends, family members, and people in our community count on blood to be available when it’s needed.

Call Erin Pfuntner at 808-345-1146 to make an appointment at the blood drive.

W

ith Halloween behind us, now comes the planning for Thanksgiving and Christmas. Time just seems to be flying by. The leaves are so beautiful right now, they make great fall decorations for the holidays, and craft projects for little kids.

So is the rain getting in the way of your regular workout routine? Check out the NCRD for weight lifting, strength training, different styles of yoga, or swimming with aqua-aerobics, deep water aquacise or water walking. But if you’re looking to keep your morning run going strong but just don’t care to keep getting soaked, give their cardio room a try and hop on a treadmill or try the ellipticals for something new, just don’t let the weather make you give up your exercising – keep going and stay dry.

I was recently informed about a really neat thing for everyone using cell phones – now in this day and age – many

ete Steen of Cape Meares has hosted "The Hogs 'R' Runnin'" Salmon Derby since 1991, raising money for the Oregon Wildlife Heritage Foundation to aid anadromous fish runs in the Tillamook estuary drainage.

The event is small compared to similar events. It is a private affair, limited to a maximum of twenty friends and former work associates. Still, the affair has raised hundreds of dollars for Tillamook fisheries over the last two decades. This year' Derby, the twenty second annual, was held on October 19th and 20th.

Pete said that this year the weather was just about the worst since the event started but the fishing was pretty good.

was advised as this was being written that Pam Anderson, a regular attendee at our Friday Night Group music sessions at City Hall, had passed away. Obituary information isn’t available as this is written, but may be in the paper by the time this column is.

We’ll miss her.

Tami writes: “Hello all from the radiation vacation, when your eyes focus on this report, I will be done with all my treatments, from what I understand, this is when the work starts, the healing! At least I will be home and getting into a new routine. The being home sounds great, the ‘work’ stuff scares me, I just want to cut hair.

Oh well, in due time! At least it's a step in the right direction.” I for one can’t wait for Tami to be back cutting hair—specifically, mine.

A whopping 79 people have birthdays in November, according to the Birthday Club list Gunnar sent me. They are: Denise Vandecoevering, Bill Peale and Mark Anderson (born Nov. 1), Faustina Panichello, Mary Jo Bradley and Laura DeGiovanni (Nov. 2), Elaine Reiber and Myrna Riley (Nov. 3), Frances O’Farrell and twins Margie and Mary Dockery (Nov. 4), Billie Fields (Nov. 5), Sean Haylett and Zola Andrews (Nov. 6), Laurine Lafky, Myristica Blackborn and Jeremy Welch (Nov. 7), Sue Trout, Valerie Coates and Joel Bohnke (Nov. 8), Dawn White and Jesse Stennett (Nov. 9), John Magnano and Dawn Ritter (Nov. 10), Arthur Beaudin (Nov. 11), Thomas Elwood, Ben Gloss and Kelsey Filosi (Nov. 12), Anita Starcher and Terry Lane (Nov. 13), Shari Fitzgerald, Michael Love and Matt Stafford (Nov. 14), and Ken Sternes, Lisa Arvold, Christina Harris, Rick Wagner, Phil Chick

of us have our cell phones as the primary phone now, instead of a land line. It is now available for cell phones to have the reverse 911 notifications Tillamook County Emergency Communications District (Tillamook 9-11) has contracted with Inspiron Logistics for their Wireless Emergency Notification System (WENS) to deliver Tillamook 91-1's emergency notifications.

Tillamook 9-1-1 will use this emergency notification system to send texts and/or voice messages to residents depending on your preference. To register your non-traditional phone go to http://entry.inspironlogistics.com /tillamook_911/wens.cfm.

Remember, enter your physical address of your property, not the post office box, and emergency notifications affecting that property will be sent to the registered cell phone. Sounds like a great idea especially since people are always on the go.

Check out the Nehalem Methodist Church on 36050 10th street in Nehalem. Choirs from the United Methodist Churches of Astoria, Bay City, Nehalem Bay, and Seaside will be singing two numbers each plus mass choir selections.

You’re encouraged to bring nonperishable food items for the food bank. Come join them as they share the music of the

Thanksgiving season. There is no charge and refreshments will be served. Good music, good friends and refreshments sounds good to me.

I can't believe this weekend is the annual Boy Scouts’ Merit Badge camp on November 9th and 10th. They will all be down at the Tillamook County Fair Grounds enjoying a campout.

For some this will be their first time camping out, for others this is an annual tradition they look forward to.

This is a great opportunity for some scouts to earn and finish up their merit badges and have some fun. Thank you to all the volunteers who make this possible.

Please make sure to celebrate all our veterans on November 11th Veterans Day! Make them cookies, take a walk with them and have some coffee, listen to a story or two, but just make sure to give a veteran some time to say you remember them and what they have done.

Hey just looking for a reason to hug a bear? Make sure you grab one on November 7th. It’s officially hug a bear day -- so look a little silly at the store and hug the whole shelf of bears!

Happy Birthday to Maggie Wefer. Love you!

Any information out there, send it to me at hope9801@yahoo.com See you soon.

fish award (the big hog) was Erik Steen of Sacramento, CA with a 28 pounder. Four anglers tied for the most fish award (the big pig) with two fish each, Karen Walz of Bend, Chris Spence and Scott Gordon of Cape Meares and Walt Cowell of Beaverton, OR. Other successful anglers included Tim Johnston of Salem, OR, Jarred Starbuck of Gates, OR, Tim McCloskey of Bainbridge Island, WA and Pete Steen of Cape Meares. Pete said he caught a nice fish on Friday that he thought was a winner but on Saturday his son, Erik, caught a bigger one. The top boat for the event was Chris Spence's with six fish taken in the two days.

Award and door prizes were presented after a happy hour and dinner held at the Cape Meares Community Center.

There were twenty-five people at the Cape Meares Community Halloween Party held at the Community Center on October 27, 2012. This was the best year for costumes as almost everyone came in costumes. The food was excellent and everyone had a really fun night of it. BJ Byron made all the apple pies for prizes for the contests. The bestcarved pumpkin first prize went to Mia, Jeannie and John Lapin-

ski's granddaughter, with second prize going to Donna Bessire, and third prize going to David Woodle. Best food first prize went to David Woodle, Donna Bessire with second prize again and Jeannie Lapinski with third prize. Best costume first prize was Mia again and Donna with the second and Sue Drafahl with the third prize. Donna Bessire shared her three apple pies. She gave me one apple pie to take home and share with husband, James, and son, David.

Thanks BJ for the apple pies for prizes. Thanks to BJ and Donna Bessire for hosting the event. Donna sure did a good job of decorating. She had a hard time finding some autumn leaves and branches. We were able to get enough from a red leaf shrub and some purple and blue hydrangeas that were still looking good on my property.

November 10, 2012 the Nea-Rock Garden Club ladies will attend the Master Gardener's Tea to be held at the Tillamook Church of the Nazarene on Third Street from 1 to 3 p.m. $10.00 tickets can be purchased at the Extension Office, 4th and Laurel, Monday through Thursday, Nov. 5-8, 1 p.m. to 4 p.m.

The Garibaldi Food Pantry won’t be open again until Friday, Nov. 16. Normally, they’re open the second and fourth Fridays, but there are occasional months with five Fridays instead of four, and this is one of them. The Food Pantry will be open 10noon on Friday, Nov. 16 and Nov. 30, at the God’s Lighthouse church, 8th & Garibaldi Ave. (across from the Food Basket). If you have canned or other nonperishable food to donate—you know there are folks here who could really use the help—bring it to the Garibaldi Post Office during working hours.

Judy Riley, Garibaldi Lions Club president, tells me she’s got applications at the post office for Thanksgiving food baskets from the Rockaway Lions. I understand the Rockaway Lions need the applications turned in by Nov. 8, so if you need one, please hurry — there’s not a lot of time.

Now that things are slowing down for the winter, an enjoyable way to stay in touch is to play bingo at the Lions Club every Friday and Saturday evening from 6-10pm. It's a great opportunity to meet new people and perhaps win a little money while you're at it!

Robin Herrington (503 355 8115) and Jan Markle (503 368 6166) are co-chairing the Lions Club Thanksgiving and Christmas basket program this year. If you have goods you'd like to donate, the bank has a drop-off barrel or just stop by after 5:30 Friday or Saturday evening and there will be someone to accept your goods as they set up for bingo.

received the most delightful letter this last week from 8-year-old Dallas Miner. She is in the second grade at Tillamook Christian School and says, “I think people should be kinder to the world and not litter”. I totally agree with you, Dallas, and I know there are a whole lot of people in our community that feels the same way. There are always some that do litter though and I hope they read your letter. I enjoyed meeting you last week and hope to see you again real soon.

Guitar lessons are still happening at the Bay City United Methodist Church on Thursday evenings at 7:00 pm. Lessons are FREE and taught by Dr. Ben Douglas. Please join us for a fun time of strumming.

I heard it through the Grapevine that there will be several events leading up to Veterans Day. Starting October 30, Veterans’ Stars will go on sale at Denny’s Restaurant in Tillamook. You purchase a Star in honor of your favorite veteran. Money from the Stars will go to veterans’ homes here in Oregon. When you come to eat at Denny’s, you may even be greeted by one of our veterans. I will be working it a couple of days so stop on by, get a bite to eat and say hi.

On Friday, November 9, from noon to 5 p.m., VFW Post 2848 and its Auxiliary Unit will host a Veterans’ Forum in the Copeland and Hatfield Rooms at the Tillamook County Library.

Material will be presented on a number of subjects of interest to veterans. More on this later.

On Monday, Nov. 12, the VFW and Tillamook Air Museum will present the 16th annual Veterans Day celebration.

I need to get my receipts from the Garibaldi Food Basket Marketplace to the library. I have a whole bunch saved from millions of visits to my favorite grocery store. And it doesn't hurt my pocketbook at all! Be sure to save yours. Our library can really use the extra income. You can even drop them off at the Pink Place. They will be sure the library gets them.

Cheryl’s Hair Salon LLC is running a haircut special. Look great for the holidays! If you mention you saw it in my column, in November she will give you a wonderful haircut for $10 (wash not included). Now that's a deal! She's in downtown Rockaway; maybe I'll see you there.

One more reminder. The allvolunteer Hope Chest Two in Rockaway Beach gives all their proceeds to other charities in Tillamook County. As you clean your home for the holidays, be sure to take them to these fine folks.

It’s time once again for Mr. News Guy to explain the puzzling behavior of, well, us.

At a recent meeting we were told whether we like it or not, we would be getting electricity-generating devices out in the ocean. There is the chance we would be able to see these structures, which means it would affect our ocean view, and if we could ignore them during the day, to make sure we didn’t miss them at night, they would be lighted.

No one likes to be told they have no say in the matter. It sprouts conspiracy theories.

Mr. News Guy is from the buckle of the Bible belt. He was raised on conspiracy theories, which is the belief in a complicated plot by a secret group.

Mr. News Guy has been warned there was a conspiracy to poison him by dumping fluoride in his drinking water, there is a zoo of aliens in Area 51 in Nevada, and the Communists, Jews and Masons had it in for him using Edward R. Murrow, the International Banking System and black helicopters owned by the New World Order. He was informed we attacked ourselves on 9/11 and we landed on the moon in a studio set in California. Mr. News Guy points out there are

thousands of conspiracy theories, one for every hard-to-believe, difficult-to-understand event.

We believe in the cause and effect rule of thumb, that is, big results should have big causes. It makes more sense to believe 9/11 was a complicated conspiracy to get us into war than it is to believe a few guys with SCHUBERT box cutters on a Tuesday could bring down the MOORE World Trade Center.

If you’re on the lookout for conspiracy theories, they’re always trying to take over the world. Mr. News Guy believes anyone who wants to take over the world deserves it.

Some prefer to believe global warming is a conspiracy, because if it isn’t, it means we have to change the way we live.

Who are these conspirators, we demand, slamming our fist down on whatever hard surface is handy, who are going to ruin our ocean view?

Mr. News Guy hates to remind us, but

we have asked every candidate for President from Johnson to Obama to reduce buying energy in the form of sweet crude from the Middle East. Drill, baby, drill became our motto.

Also, at our request the Federal Government supported the increase in gas mileage, fracking for gas and oil here at home, clean coal, and hydro. They funded the search for alternatives, green energy in the form of solar panels, algae farms, and wind and wave electricity generation. We demanded of our candidates, do something to make us energy secure. When they reassured us that they would, we voted for them.

Well, they listened to us. We’re going to get what we asked for. The Federal Government has put a plan together to create electricity from the ocean like we citizens demanded. We heard you, the Federal Government responded. If you run into problems doing it yourself, we’ll help out by doing it for you.

Yes, but we didn’t mean here!

Mr. News Guy thinks he found the secret group plotting the conspiracy. He thinks the secret group is us.

Of course the hardy fuchsia are still blooming and will most likely continue to do so until after Christmas. The little Anna’s humming birds – the ones that stay year ‘round - love the fuchsia and, since they are about the only brightly colored flower in my yard at this point, I can understand why.

One critter seemed to thrive on the wet yet mild weather. I noticed slugs out and about even after the first of the month.

Usually by November they have buried themselves far underground for the winter. Not this year. So there I was, back with my cottage cheese container and my garden gloves picking up as many as I could find in the late evening and early mornings. Sometimes I have to wonder if I have the personal strength to wage war against these creepy crawlies for another month.

As I was strolling through my garden between rain showers last week, I was most pleasantly surprised to see the Hellebores starting to form blossoms.

With any luck my “Lenten Roses” will be in bloom for Christmas. They will continue to bloom long into next summer which is why they are one of my favorite perennials and well worth the price I paid for them.

Hellebores can be quite pricey, but sometimes I find myself in the right place at the right time and get a good deal. Persistence at the nursery does pay off.

Speaking of which, you may still be able to find some good deals at the nurseries as they finish their autumn sales. I was lucky enough to find a great grass when I was shopping with a dear friend in the Portland area – a Miscanthus ‘Flame’ just called to me “Take me home with you.” Gardeners were passing it by because it was turning orange from its normal dark purple-red. But to me, that made it a perfect candidate for a fall garden. Planted in an area with some sun, it was very striking on those few less rainy days we had in late October. I may have to watch this one carefully to make certain it doesn’t crowd out other, smaller plants. But it will be worth the effort if I can have some nicely colored grasses next autumn, too.

Here I am complaining about the rain when all those poor people back east had a real storm with Hurricane Sandy.

When I saw all those pictures on the news, I was once again reminded why I love living on the Oregon Coast, rain or Norain.

Volunteers needed for Alternative Gift Market On Saturday, December 1st, Fulcrum Community Resources will sponsor the eighth annual Alternative Gift Market (AGM), which will take place at the Pine Grove Community Center in Manzanita, from 10am to 4pm.

There will be numerous opportunities for volunteers to help local and worldwide non-profit organizations, both on market day itself, and in preparation for market day.

This event offers an amazing chance for the gift-buyer to

Mr. News Guy explains conspiracy theories

choose from an array of worthwhile holiday gifts, addressing local and international issues of hunger, women, children, education, health, water, and the environment. Instead of traditional gifts, the AGM provides a new direction in meaningful holiday giving.

Questions on how the market works? Want to volunteer in support of the success of this annual one-day event? Please email Josh Uithof at joshuithofua@hotmail.com.

Dr. Ironside joins Rinehart Clinic WHEELER – Dr. Keith Ironside, pulmonologist and sleep specialist, is seeing patients at the Rinehart Clinic, reviewing in-home sleep studies and assisting resident providers with ensuring that Clinic patients are getting a good night’s sleep.

“Sleep apnea is one of the biggest issues for many of our patients,” said Dr. Rinehart. “And many times, once we are able to help our patients to sleep well, other health issues dramatically improve.”

Through donations, the clinic has purchased state-of-the-art portable polysomnograms for in-home sleep studies to assist with diagnosing sleep apnea and other sleep problems.

“This saves our patients the time, cost and hassle of going to a sleep lab. They can sleep in their own

beds and we can get the data to assess their sleep issues,” said Dr. Rinehart. “Combined with Dr. Ironside’s expertise being available right here at the Clinic, too, provides an even higher level of care.”

Dr. Ironside has been practicing medicine for over 30 years and is a nationally recognized Sleep Specialist who has developed several sleep disorder programs in the Pacific Northwest since 1977. Dr. Ironside has practiced extensively in critical care and pulmonary medicine before dedicating himself full-time to sleep medicine.

He specializes in diagnosing and treating patients of all ages with complex sleep issues and has traveled extensively throughout the world learning how various environmental factors affect sleep disorders. Dr. Ironside is on the medical

staff, for sleep study testing, at Providence St Vincent Hospital, Providence Portland Hospital and Providence Milwaukee Hospital.

A good night’s sleep is an important part of achieving optimal health, and with preventive care, such as annual check-ups and regular screenings, The Rinehart Clinic can help everyone in this community achieve the best quality of life.

The Rinehart Clinic’s primary care providers are committed to assisting our patients with all aspects of their health. By working side-by-side with specialists such as Dr. Ironside, and other specialists from Providence Healthcare – cardiologist Dr. Morse and urologist Dr. Zobell –the clinic provides the highest quality of healthcare available to all in our community.

Dr. Opdahl joins staff at TCGH Tillamook County General Hospital welcomes Gregory Opdahl, MD, who is now providing anesthesiology services at the hospital.

Dr. Opdahl graduated with a BS in Neuroscience from Brigham GREGORY Young UniOPDAHL versity in Provo, UT. Following that he studied medicine at Loyola University Stritch School of Medicine in Maywood, IL. He completed a residency in anesthesiology at University of Texas at Houston Medical School, where he was awarded special recognition for outstanding performance in cardiovascular anesthesiology and for achieving above the 90th percentile in the 2012 In Training Examination.

“I was drawn to the field of anesthesiology for several reasons,” Opdahl said. “One reason is that as an anesthesiologist, I enjoy the special interaction that I have with patients of all ages as I accompany them on their journey before, during and after a surgical procedure or treatment.”

The opportunity to work closely with other medical professionals to tailor anesthesia and treatment options for a patient’s unique health situation is another reason Ophdahl cites for why he became an anesthesiologist. Specialty areas in which he has completed advanced training include chronic pain management and epidural steroid injections, cardiovascular and obstetric anesthesia, and perioperative care.

Fluent in both written and spoken Spanish, Opdahl lived for two years in Chile leading mission outreach and community development projects.

Both natives of the Pacific Northwest, Dr. Opdahl and his wife Jill are happy to be back in this area. He enjoys spending time with his family, which includes two young children.
