We’ll also give you a glimpse into the life of patriot Maurice Johannessen, a Norwegian immigrant who earned his American citizenship a half-century ago. The former Senator was instrumental in the creation of the Northern California Veterans Cemetery in Igo and the California Veterans Home in Redding. Then meet Craig Wittner and Dean Herzberg, Redding’s fire investigators who are the detectives of the fire department. They’re charged with solving fiery mysteries - sometimes when every shred of evidence has gone up in flames. You’ll also be inspired by John Oakes, a Senior Olympian whose new goal is to eradicate Type 1 diabetes. Also heroic are the folks who were committed to ensuring that the Trinity River Lumber Co. would rise from the ashes after a devastating fire; its resurrection has helped keep Weaverville’s economy afloat. With summer in full swing, perhaps you’re seeking an adventure. Consider seeking relief from the heat at the picturesque Lake Siskiyou Bridge, which laces together a trail that encircles the lake in the shadow of Mt. Shasta. Or head east for a peek at the unique and historical Round Barn, which has been moved to the Fort Crook Museum grounds in Fall River Mills. Hungry? Consider a mini road trip to the south. Roxie’s Deli and BBQ on Highway 99 in Los Molinos honors a family legacy that began 40 years ago as an old Russian deli in San Francisco. On your way back home, cruise by Roger’s Frosty, which serves up nostalgia, one soft-serve cone at a time, on Main Street in Cottonwood. The menu has hardly changed since it opened in 1955 as the Jolly Cone. Don’t forget to join us for Movies in the Park, which is at Anderson River Park in July.

right ' round the historical round barn in fall river mills
In 2003, Robert Ingram walked into the John Deere dealership in Fall River Mills looking for tractor parts. He walked out with a barn. Or the promise of one. Not just any barn, mind you, but the historical Round Barn on the Beaver Creek Ranch built in 1916 by its owner, Robert Johnston, to start and train wild horses for the U.S. Cavalry during World War I. The barn had long held the fascination of passersby at its original location. Constructed in the round for ease in training horses, it stood apart from more traditionally built barns in the area. It was originally constructed with 40,000 hand-cut cedar shakes for its steep roof, but
by the early 1970s, a severe hailstorm caused so much damage that a sheet metal roof was installed. By 2003, that roof was in such bad shape that the new owners found themselves at an impasse. Not wanting to destroy the barn, but also not wanting to undergo the repairs needed, they decided to donate it to the Fort Crook Historical Society, where it could become a community treasure and portal to its past. When Ken Bickford, a co-owner of the Beaver Creek Ranch, ran into Robert Ingram at the John Deere dealership on that fateful day, Robert had joined the board of the Fort Crook Historical continued on page 16

The community was as enthralled with the Round Barn as he was, and rallied around the project.
Society with the intention to liaise between his employer, PG&E, and the society for acquisition of antique parts used by PG&E to start the massive power generation projects in the area. When the opportunity came to acquire the Round Barn, however, his focus changed. Fortunately, he had a lot of help. The community was as enthralled with the Round Barn as he was, and rallied around the project. It took six years, numerous work parties and thousands of dollars in donated funds and materials to pull off, but in 2009, the Round Barn was dedicated at its new location, the Fort Crook Museum grounds in Fall River Mills, and restored to its former glory, wood shakes and all. Restoration of a barn built of pine in 1916 required creative thinking and engineering to meet modern building codes. All new structural materials had to be built from Douglas Fir and the wood shakes had to be fire treated. A massive tree was felled on the Norris Ranch in Cayton Valley to supply the center pole of the barn. Local expert Dan MacMillan was brought in to hand-fit bracing poles and deal with the raw log construction. While the barn is visually stunning in the simplicity of its architecture, much of what makes it so remarkable is hidden. It’s difficult to see the hand-fit bracing of the steep roof, and the raw logs had their bark peeled in countless hours of hand work with a draw knife. One may not notice that the new boards brought in to patch holes in the siding were cut with a wheel saw to replicate saw marks that would have shown up on the original boards. And yet, with all the all attention to old-time detail, modern equipment was used for the big work. It was no small feat to use an excavator and other heavy equipment to install the center pole and start the roof bracing. Back in its original construction, this work was done with mules and men only. Photos of the barn’s restoration indicate the intensity of the undertaking that took six years; the barn was originally built by a team of 14 men and their mules in less than a year. continued on page 18

It may seem that acquisition of the Round Barn was fated to the Fort Crook Historical Society when it patterned construction of its museum after the barn in the early 1960s. Now both round buildings stand near each other, drawing visitors in to experience the local history of the intermountain area. “The temptation to fill the barn is almost overwhelming,” Ingram says of the numerous donations community members make to the society, including antique harnesses, buggies and trucks. Yet, he and the board hope to keep the barn uncluttered so the building can accommodate weddings and family reunions. Ingram’s son had the first wedding in the barn, an event that was much anticipated as a celebration not only of the relationship, but of the precious resource that the barn has become to the community. The top of the barn’s original center pole now holds recognition plates of the many people who contributed to the restoration and is displayed at the barn door. It’s a testament to just how “off it went” on that day when Robert Ingram and Ken Bickford met up at the parts counter at the John Deere dealership. Says Ingram, “It was just an offhand remark and off it went.” • Fort Crook Historical Society Museum and Round Barn 43030 Fort Crook Museum Ave., Fall River Mills Tuesday-Sunday, noon-4pm; May 1-October 31 www.fortcrook.com

N ew Fantasy F ountain for K ids K ingdom
By summer’s end, an east Redding park will be home to a tropical paradise, where painted fish, lily pads and frogs fill crystal-blue waters and children delight in the mist of a water volcano. The revitalized Fantasy Fountain, part of Kids Kingdom in Enterprise Community Park, is well under way. In April, crews tore down the park’s 12-foot-tall, concrete climbable volcano, which shot a geyser of water into the sky, drenching delighted youngsters below. Unfortunately, this created puddles of water that have been deteriorating the safety matting. By late summer, it will be replaced with a non-climbable volcano and a variety of kid-friendly water features. The project was set in motion about a year ago, when the Record Searchlight approached Kim Niemer, Community Services Director for the city of Redding, about partnering on a major community project. “We saw there was an increasing level of strife between citizens and government folks, and the economy certainly was wearing on everyone’s spirits,” says Record Searchlight Marketing Manager Michelle Martin Streeby. “We talked with Kim about various major projects that needed community help due to the tight city budget. She immediately pointed out the great need to renovate Fantasy Fountain, since she was at the point of having to close it until she gathered enough funds to renovate it.” It was an easy sell. “We knew the community would get behind this huge renovation and the fundraising,” Martin Streeby says. The Scripps Howard Foundation donated $40,000, with an additional $43,000 in media support. They’re also gathering other donations and coordinating the paint-by-number registrations. Redding Rancheria, McConnell Foundation and the California Endowment each contributed $25,000. Some of the other major contributors include Redding East Rotary, Sagepoint Financial, Sherrill Bambauer, retired general contractor Jerry Peters (who continued on page 22 July 2012 Enjoy 21
is managing the construction project), Guiton’s Pools, Wallner Plumbing, Mike Boban Construction, Larry Hopson, Sharrah Dunlap Sawyer, Carter Fencing, and Steve Gregory, who demolished the old structure for free. All work is being performed by local contractors. “Everybody’s coming together to pitch in and make this happen,” Niemer says. The project costs about $314,000, but $100,000 was defrayed through in-kind services from local contractors and businesses. About $180,000 of the rest has already been donated, and fundraisers are planned for the remaining amount. Commemorative beach towels are for sale at the Recreation and Parks Office, and families can also sponsor and paint individual features of the concrete “canvas” on the park’s floor. Sponsorships range from $25 to $100, and sponsors will be contacted with their painting time in August. In terms of design, project organizers knew they wanted “something completely over the top. We wanted it to be very attractive,” Niemer says. They asked three local artists to submit proposals for the 3,400-square-foot space, and Redding artist Armando Mejorado hit the bull’s eye with his whimsical, Art Deco-type plan that includes koi, lily pads, frogs and waves painted in vibrant colors. “It will hopefully make you feel like you’re swimming and interacting on a koi pond,” Mejorado says. “I wanted it to be artistic and creative. I want a little kid to come and try to pick up a frog.” He selected koi because he’s developed a strong affinity for them in the past year, and thought a koi pond would be a perfect fit for the park. “Each koi is like living art – the way they move, their colors,” Mejorado says. The “pond” will feature life-sized koi, lily pads, frogs and water
22 Enjoy July 2012
lilies. He has paid painstaking attention to detail to ensure that the finished product looks just like such a pond would appear in nature. “People can pick a fish and copy its design. After it dries, we’ll have a volunteer write their names so everybody knows what koi and what frog belongs to what kid,” says Mejorado, who will himself paint the water waves, the volcano and a couple dozen koi that need some intricate detail. “It’s easy enough to have kids help, it’s interesting to look at and it will work well with the rest of the design,” Niemer says. Kids Kingdom already features handprint tiles and concrete footprints, which community members purchased as a fund-raiser. “One of the real attributes of that park is that people have an attachment to it. They were there way back when,” Niemer says. But the new feature isn’t just kids’ play. “I wanted something parents would be excited to go to. It will be an art feature in itself,” Mejorado says. • To sign up for a “paint the art” spot or to be a sponsor: www.redding.com/fantasyfountain To learn more about the project: www.fantasyfountain.org

John Oakes loves the North State for its outdoor beauty and recreation opportunities. He has scaled nearby mountains and enjoyed the vast natural wealth of the region. He moved to the area 24 years ago with wife Sally, realizing a long-held dream. Married 53 years, they have carved out their own little slice of heaven at their Palo Cedro home. Oakes describes the past 12 years as some of the best of his life, years in which he has pursued Olympic Gold – Senior Olympics, that — in cycling. Oakes had been an avid “We all face isrunner legs couldn’t take the beating adversity… anymore.untilInhis1999, he took to the bicycle, Even in worked with a coach off and on, and quickly adversity rose to top rankings in races against the best you can senior competitors from around the world. compete During one of his first races, the Sea Otter in life.” Classic in Monterey, he went down in a pile of 20 or so racers and suffered a torn rotator -John Oakes cuff. He took time off to let his body heal, then was off and pedaling and competing again. In June 2008, Oakes gained recognition when he won the prestigious Sattley Cal/Nev Time Trial Championships, and at the California Senior Olympics in Long Beach where he garnered two first place medals and two second place awards. He set a personal record during one 10K time trial with a time of 15:11. Throughout that year, he placed in the top three in several big races. After knee surgery in December 2008, Oakes ranked in the top five in all four events for his age group during the August 2009
National Senior Olympics at Stanford University. 2011 was his best year of all. He placed third in the 30+ division of the California Masters and earned second, third and fourth place for events during the USA Masters in Bend, Ore. Oakes describes that cycling championship as the most competitive cycling event in the Western Hemisphere. He has chased American world-class racer Walt Axthelm on many occasions, yet trailed in a frustrating second place each time. His greatest nemesis on the course has been Robert Paganni, a French/ Italian world champion racer. Oakes has beaten him several times, an accomplishment he shares with pride. Oakes’ wife (whom he affectionately calls Sal Gal) has been his biggest supporter and nutritionist throughout his training. And among his great joys has been introducing his son and one of his grandsons to cycling. He brags that his grandson, at age 19, is a rising star in competitive cycling. Oakes went to Cal Poly San Luis Obispo on a football scholarship, where he played on two championship teams and alongside the likes of John Madden. In May 2012, Sonoma High School inducted him into its Football Hall of Fame. Oakes has always been an athlete and outdoor enthusiast. His disciplined personal and professional work ethic began as he grew up on a farm in Sonoma Valley. He was “born with a competitive survival spirit” and “genes to strive to be the best.” After more than 25 years in the corporate world, Oakes started his own business. Now, still vigorous continued on page 26

and vital in his 70s, he uses his expertise as a management consultant to help support companies and individuals by “improving … the bottom line through people development and organizational strategies.” An active member of Redding East Rotary Club, Oakes remains involved in the community he loves. Oakes is not racing this year. In March 2010, he was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes, also known as Juvenile Diabetes. Though he says his legs have served him well, they are now failing him. “We all face adversity,” he says, adding, “Even in adversity you can compete in life.” Despite his health challenges, he continues to train and plans to join the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation Ride to Cure Diabetes this October in Death Valley. “As a Type 1 Diabetic my personal physical challenge has increased since the first of the year. I’m determined to keep on keeping on and ride the 100 miles in Death Valley,” he says, adding that it’s his goal to raise $4,000 for the cause. “Collectively, we will lick this autoimmune disease.” Oakes is determined to help and encourage others. “Life is worth fighting for and working at. There is lots to do out there. Never give up; never give in.” • Sandie Tillery writes about the North State from 35 years of personal experience exploring it from corner to corner with husband John, their three grown children and four grandsons.

octane THE MUSICAL ENERGY OF brad wilson
To truly capture the essence of California is to listen to the music that has seeped out of our communities, passed on through each new generation of musicians. Singer, songwriter and guitarist Brad Wilson is a reminder of that creative process. His concerts are the kind of high-octane performances that have made him a hit at countless festivals, clubs, wineries and major events. “ If the crowd comes up to the front of He has released 15 records, opening for music acts like the stage and starts dancing, you’ve Cheap Trick, .38 Special, Coco Montoya, Roy Rogers, the changed the situation, they’re into it, Deltas Kings and many others. and at that point as a guitarist, you Wilson’s musical road started with his family. “My dig a little deeper.” parents loved having music in the house,” he says. “We lived in rural Nevada, and from my earliest memories, I remember listening to country western music like Marty singer Kathi McDonald, known for her background vocals on the Robbins and Johnny Cash, as well as big singers like Sinatra Rolling Stones’ Exile on Main Street.

2012 COVER CONTEST help us pick this year’s winner Wilson left Shame to play with the rock group Stone, and eventually fronted the band, recording an album produced by the Robb Brothers, who introduced him to filmmaker John Carpenter while Carpenter was filming “Vampires.” “He really liked a song I wrote called ‘Teaser’ for a specific scene in the movie where ( James) Woods’ character and his buddies are celebrating the destruction of a vampire nest. John made ‘Teaser’ the first song on the soundtrack, which went on to win a Saturn Award for Best Music from the Academy of Science Fiction, Fantasy and Horror Films.” He also performed the guitar instrumental “Can’t Let You Go” for Carpenter’s flick “Ghosts of Mars” and a number of his songs were used on the TV soap opera “Passions.” By 2003, he had established himself as a solo act on the club circuit. His self-titled 2005 solo CD drew reviews comparing him to Greg Allman and Stevie Ray Vaughan. These days, he gigs with his band about 150 days a year. He views his TV and film work as financially rewarding, but the most important part of his music is playing live shows. Wilson says, “As a musician you want to be in that moment, reaching for higher ground and excitement. If the crowd comes up to the front of the stage and starts dancing, you’ve changed the situation, they’re into it, and at that point as a guitarist, you dig a little deeper.” • www.bradwilsonlive.com Upcoming North State concerts: July 11: Mosquito Serenade, Anderson River Park July 12: Eureka Summer Concert Series, On the Boardwalk – Old Town Eureka

absolutely fabulous R en é e noel’ s the fabulous fabric shop
“The hardest thing for me to do is disconnect from it when I’m not here. I live and breathe it. I’m actually excited to walk through that door every day.” -Renée Noel
Once upon a time, learning to sew was a rite of passage for a little girl. And then, things changed. Girls traded in their needles and thread for their laptops and business suits and learning to sew became a thing of the past. But who says you can’t do both? Thanks to the owner of The Fabulous Fabric Shop and joyful seamstress Renée Noel, the younger generation is getting an opportunity to fall in love with the art of sewing all over again. Noel formerly worked in the advertisement industry, both in the Bay Area and for a local restaurateur. She was highly skilled in her field – evidence of which can still be seen today in her ability to effectively market her sewing workshops through the store’s Facebook page, her website and cooperative efforts with a local group of artists known as Redding Handmade. But Noel found herself wanting to return to something she has loved since she was 8. “After leaving the ad industry, I thought about what skills I had to offer. I thought about what I would do if I had all the time in the world. I would sew. The hardest thing for me to do is disconnect from it when I’m not here. I live and breathe it. I’m actually excited to walk through that door every day.” Her love of sewing was first nurtured by her “second mom” and mentor Susan Magrini, who used to sew clothing for Noel when she was little. “Susan was trying to teach my mom to sew. My mom didn’t take to it, but I did.” Noel scored the sewing machine that her dad had initially purchased for her mom. continued on page 34
July 2012 Enjoy 33
After teaching Noel to sew, her mentor became enchanted with quilting. “Susan got away from sewing clothing for a long time, but now that she has grandchildren, she says I have helped her to become interested in sewing clothing again.” Noel has always considered sewing her “happy place” where she finds stress relief. “When I’m sewing, I can do anything. I want young girls and boys to be able to feel the same way.” Her desire to help nurture “smart, confident and creative” young people is part and parcel of why she offers a wide selection of sewing workshops for kids, including Sewing 101, Summer Sewing Camps and a Design Your Own Fabric Camp, to name a few. Her classes are in such demand with Redding youngsters and their parents that she has added a second session of her Summer Sewing Camp, and has brought on a second instructor to teach an alterations class geared toward adults. When she first opened the Fabulous Fabric Shop in 2010, she thought selling fabric would be her mainstay. But two years later, Noel is both proud and grateful to say, “This business’ main focus and priority is the kids. I had no idea it would be like this. I have always loved kids, but I really feel I have been called to do this.” Noel has a hard time pinpointing her most rewarding moment of teaching. One of her students, Allison, began coming to Noel’s sewing workshops when she was 6 years old. “We joke about her taking over my shop one day,” Noel says proudly. Allison entered a
34 Enjoy July 2012
few of her sewing projects in the 2011 Shasta District Fair and won an award. “She’s on her fifth dress now.” Meeting Ella, a student at Redding School of the Arts, was a defining moment for Noel. Ella was born with only one arm. Having started one of Noel’s sewing workshops a day late, she not only caught up to her fellow classmates, but surpassed them by completing her project before the deadline. “Ella inspired me,” she says, with glistening eyes. “Seeing what she did made me institute a new rule in my classes: ‘Can’t does not exist here’.” • The Fabulous Fabric Shop • 1814 Churn Creek Road, Redding 530-221-1608 Hours: Monday – Friday 10 am to 6 pm; Saturday – 10 am to 5 pm; Sunday – Closed TheFabFabricShop.com; info@thefabfabricshop.com Find them on Facebook Kimberly N.

M ill W E AV E R V I L L E ' S T R I N I T Y R I V E R L U M B E R C O . When sparks from a cutting torch touched off a blaze that gutted the Trinity River Lumber Co., the flames burned more than a sawmill—they leveled Trinity County’s largest private employer and blackened Weaverville’s future. For 26 years, the mill kept two shifts busy turning logs into random length 2x4s, producing an average of 125 million board-feet a year. The mill’s daily whistle was the sound of a steady paycheck for about 140 workers and their families. Others counted on the mill as well, including loggers, truck drivers and business owners in the community—all of which explains why hundreds of hearts sank on the morning of Sept. 12, 2009, when a fire ultimately consumed the main building of the mill. Heads did not stay down for long. When the big horse in the stable falters, everybody pitches in to help. A week after the fire, Trinity High School cheerleaders held a rally in front of the mill and collected $1,000 for the displaced workers. A thrift shop operated by All Saints Episcopal Church kicked in $5,000 and a North Valley Bank spaghetti feed generated another $3,250.
Other Weaverville merchants got in the act, offering the shirts off their backs—as well as other items of apparel—to create a calendar of slightly racy photos in a good-natured effort to promote Main Street and raise money for mill workers. The symbolic help was heartwarming and appreciated, but it did little to reduce the anxiety about the town’s future. Many recalled the sad day in 1996 when Sierra Pacific Industries closed its mill in Hayfork, 30 miles southwest of Weaverville. That action resulted in the loss of 150 jobs. “The mill going down was very difficult for the whole community,” says Sharron Heryford, owner of the popular La Grange Café in downtown Weaverville. “You lose that picture—just the visual of something being there—and then when they don’t know what’s going to happen, they get more and more upset.” Concerned citizens did not have to wait very long for the mill’s owner, Frank Schmidbauer of Redding, to announce that the mill would be rebuilt. Several obstacles remained, however, including some prolonged wrangling with insurance companies and then the continued on page 38 July 2012 Enjoy 37
giant task of removing the mill’s charred remains. Schmidbauer, a member of a multi-generation timber family, purchased the mill from Simpson Paper Co. in the early 1980s after it had sat idle for two years. By July 1983, the mill was running two shifts and it continued at that capacity until the fire. Dee Sanders, the mill’s general manager since its saws started running, says Schmidbauer’s sense of the mill’s importance played a big role in his decision to rebuild. “He looked at that scenario and knew it had always been a part of this community.” Given the ongoing struggles with timber harvesting in Trinity County, where 80 percent of the forests are managed by the federal government, “it would have been easier to take the insurance money and move on,” says Sanders. Instead, a state-of-the-art mill rose from the ashes. “We put a lot of money in the old mill and had a lot of new technology in it,” says Sanders, a Redding native and Humboldt State University graduate. “This new mill has more.” The mill can accommodate logs from six to 50 inches in diameter. “We’re trying to make the mill fit the log supply that’s available,” Sanders says. Since the mill does not own any of its own forests, it depends on federal and private timber sales. State and federal restrictions limit most logging during the winter months, so workers are kept busy building mountainous log decks to keep the mill supplied year-round. “It’s an expensive venture. You’re always gambling because you’re not sure what the market will be when you cut it the next winter. It’s a risk you have to take,” Sanders says. Battles over spotted owls and challenges from a stalled economy notwithstanding, Sanders says running the mill continues to be a rewarding experience. “Being able to provide jobs for families in our community is probably the most gratifying thing. We’re here trying to use natural resources that are renewable to provide lasting jobs for the community.” A lot of people are glad the mill stayed. “It meant a lot to the community. It showed that the mill cared a lot for the community,” says Will Johnson, director of golf at the nearby Trinity Alps Golf Course. “A lot of people in town who worked there were afraid they were going to lose their jobs. When they decided to rebuild, it gave a big boost to their pride. When something like that is in jeopardy, it affects so much. There are wives and kids, the parents they take care of, taxes…the effect is gigantic,” Johnson says. “From where we stand economically, I think it was a huge boost that someone would take the time, money and energy to reinvest in the county,” says Wayne Agner, named editor of the Trinity Journal a mere seven months before the fire. “I don’t think it is overstating things to say that it was crucial that the mill was rebuilt.” •

Roll with it... baby shake , rattle and roll with the blues rollers If you ever listen to live music in the North State, chances are you’ve seen the Blues Rollers. And, if you’ve seen the Blues Rollers, chances are you’ve experienced a show like no other. These guys really know how to shake, rattle and roll, and have been touted as Redding’s premiere boogie woogie, blues and swing band. “You’d better put on your dancin’ shoes when you come to see the Blues Rollers,” says co-founder Michael Plank. Plank, also referred to as “Magic” because of his mad harmonica skills, knows a thing or two about performing, having been wailing on the blues harp for many years. He, along with buddy Mike Jenkins, a guitar teacher at Foothill High School, decided to form a band 10 years ago after meeting at one of the Shasta Blues Society’s jams continued on page 42
July 2012 Enjoy 41
“ The reason we’ve stayed together so long,” Plank says, “is because we all get along. We’re doing what we love.” at Lulu’s Restaurant. They began playing in a friend’s band, and then decided to form their own. Many of the bandmates have been playing together for years. “We have so much fun,” says Plank. “Especially since we added the keyboard and horn player—people love it.” The Blues Rollers play two or three gigs a month, and have acquired quite a following. They’ve played at MarketFest, the Cascade Theater, the Mosquito Serenade and numerous fundraising events. “It’s not just about playing music,” Plank says. “We want the audience to enjoy the show—and boy, do we put on a show.” The band, which consists of Plank, Jenkins, Pat Sullivan, Alan Bradlen, Bill Ruess and Derral Campbell, is often seen playing at as many fundraising events as paid gigs. Says Plank, “If we can play a gig and raise money for a good cause, well, it‘s nice to do what you love when it’s helping people.” He stresses that sometimes, when bands are hired to play, it can feel like work; with fundraisers, he says it’s all about having fun—it doesn’t feel like a job. The Blues Rollers have played for veterans’ fundraisers, cancer awareness, the Shasta Food Coalition and the Women’s Refuge, to

name a few. They are also a part of the new State of Jefferson Blues Society. According to Plank, the band fully believes in sharing the things they love and helping other people. They also enjoy bringing other musicians on stage with them and embracing local talent. “There’s a benefit to having other musicians come up and play,” Plank says. “You can really get a feel for what people like—what they’re listening to.” And the band truly seems to enjoy each other on stage. “The reason we’ve stayed together so long,” Plank says, “is because we all get along. We’re doing what we love.” • www.snowcrest.net/jmike/bluesrollers.html Upcoming North State Shows: Burney Basin Days July 5-8 Redding MarketFest August 2

R O G E R ' S F R O S T Y I N COT TO N WO O D S E RV E S I T U P Sometimes the best part of a meal is the memory of a particular flavor or fragrance that transports you back to a time when life was simple and carefree. A local landmark for nearly six decades, Roger’s Frosty in Cottonwood continues to serve up nostalgia alongside the crinkle-cut fries and soft-serve swirl cones for which they are so well known. Originally opened in 1955 as the Jolly Cone, the Main Street burger joint is now owned by Dawn and Alex McCone. Roger’s, one of the last frosty restaurants in the North State, has survived in part due to a menu of items that is virtually the same as it was decades ago. Consistency, Dawn says, has been key, “We have customers who have moved away, and when they are in town, they stop by and want the food to be the same as they remembered it when they were living here.” Shelley Bullen, a Roger’s fan who grew up in Cottonwood and now lives in Chico, still dines at “the frosty” on occasion. When she’s heading into town to visit friends and family, she calls in one of her favorites: the cheeseburger meal or a steak sandwich. “I still have the phone number memorized,” she says with a laugh.
Every now and again, the McCones have the pleasure of serving someone who hasn’t eaten at a frosty in a while, like the woman who came to the order window not long after the McCones took over the business. “She was so excited that she could get an orange slushie here,” says McCone. “She said, ‘I haven’t had one of these since I was a kid!’” Filling customers’ bellies with all-American comfort food makes the McCones’ work satisfying. “There’s a trio of older ladies who come down regularly to get their cones and they eat them on the bench outside,” says Alex. “It’s a real big deal to them, and that makes it a big deal to me.” In addition to cones and slushies, items like the half-pound Macho Burger, stuffed burrito, classic hot dog, root beer float and hot fudge sundae attract a steady flow of customers to Roger’s walk-up windows where sizzling burger juices pop off the grill and the fragrance of fries and onion rings bubbling in hot oil wafts through the air. As they wait under the blinking arrow of Roger’s roof-top sign, listening for their orders to be called out, customers visit with friends, family or neighbors. The sense of community Roger’s evokes gives folks permission to kick back and enjoy the sweet things in life. continued on page 46

Although the casual atmosphere and tasty treats keep loyal customers returning to Roger’s, the McCones recognize that without good employees, they would not be able to continue building their business; it would be kind of like building a banana split without the cherry on top. Sporting matching black shirts with retro-style logos, the Roger’s gang greets customers with smiling faces. The McCones admit that owning the Shasta County landmark demands much of their time, but this challenge doesn’t seem to suppress the couple’s appetite for success. Dawn says, “We enjoy it! It’s hard work, but we have a lot of support from the community.” Alex adds, “It’s really cool knowing Roger’s is one of the last remaining frosties, at least locally.” Yes, the McCones recognize their name is fitting, considering the frosty “cone” is one of their most popular menu items. Yes, they love serving up heaping spoonfuls of nostalgia. Yes, they know they’ve got a good thing going. • Roger’s Frosty 10 am - 10 pm daily 3309 Main Street, Cottonwood (530) 347-3417

glory the flag of the united states of america
The United States flag symbolizes America’s historical events and its values about life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. Since it was first officially established by order of the Continental Congress on June 14, 1777, its shape, design and arrangement have changed to accommodate the addition of each new state (ending in 1960 with the annexation of Hawaii). Find several pages throughout the magazine that offer insight into flag construction, etiquette, care and disposal, and one of the several symbolic interpretations behind the flag-folding ceremony. continued on page 52
July 2012 Enjoy 51
Flag Etiquette Did you know the U.S. flag: …is usually displayed from sunrise to sunset, but can be flown 24 hours a day as long as it is properly illuminated (direct light source) during hours of darkness. …when flown at half-staff, should be first hoisted to the peak and then lowered to the half-staff position. It should be raised again to the peak before being lowered for the day. …when used to cover a casket, the flag should be placed so that the union is at the head and over the left shoulder. …should have no other flag or pennant placed above or, if on the same level, to the right of it (exceptions exist for services at sea). …should be hoisted briskly but lowered ceremoniously. …should not be displayed in inclement weather, unless displaying an all-weather flag. …should never touch anything beneath it, such as the ground, the floor, water or merchandise. …should never be carried flat or horizontally, but always aloft and free. …should never be used as wearing apparel, bedding, or drapery. …should never be used for advertising purposes.
Flag Trivia K The term “half-staff ” means the position of the flag when it is one-half the distance between the top and bottom of the staff. K A flag expert is called a vexillologist. K On the first U.S. flag the stars were displayed in a circle so no one state would be above another. K In 2004, Cornell University researchers etched the world’s smallest, full-color American flag on a silicon chip. K Flying the flag upside down is not sanctioned unless signaling extreme distress. K By specific legal authority, eight sites in the United States fly the flag continuously: Fort McHenry National Monument, Baltimore, Maryland; Flag House Square, Baltimore, Maryland; the United States Marine Corps Iwo Jima Memorial, Arlington, Virginia; Lexington, Massachusetts; the White House; the Washington Monument; United States Customs ports of entry;and Valley Forge State Park, Pennsylvania. continued on page 55

Flag Materials Early flags were made of silk and were hand sewn by the mothers of soldiers within local units or made for local communities, says Rich Kenny, owner of the Flag Center in Redding. Cotton replaced silk and was for many years the material of choice before it was replaced by synthetics. Kenny adds, “Cotton is a weaker all-weather material that doesn’t hold up well under changing conditions. Over time it loses its shape and the four corners disappear, making it difficult to fold properly.” Polyester flags are among the most popular because the lightweight material allows a flag to fly with very little wind. Also economical, these are the flags of choice for temporary or special occasion use, like parades. Sewn/spun polyester flags resemble coarse cotton and are the most durable flags available. Due to their heavier weight, they resist fading and fraying and can be flown continuously. Nylon flags may be the best choice due to their economical price and flexibility of use either indoors or outdoors. Strong and durable, these flags feature a close weave, are colorfast and are fast-drying, which means easy care and low maintenance. Consumers can choose between flags with either digitally printed or traditionally sewn stars and stripes. Kenny says the former are less expensive but adds, “They don’t last quite as long because the flag doesn’t have the reinforced seams.”
Flag Care & Disposal The Federal Flag Code, which provides uniform national guidelines relating to the display and respectful treatment of the American flag, does not prohibit hand or machine washing it. “We recommend a gentle cycle using a mild soap like Woolite and then line drying,” says Kenny. Flags can also be dry cleaned and some establishments will even perform this service without cost (always verify policy in advance). Minor repairs can be made to a flag to keep it looking crisp and not tattered. “If you see it start with an inch of fraying, take it down and get it repaired,” says Kenny. “Stripes can be replaced and corners reinforced.” However, once a flag is worn, damaged or tattered beyond repair, it should be retired. While it may shock some people, the preferred method is burning. The critical caveat is that this be done in a dignified and respectful manner, which signifies purification and rebirth. Barry Zanni, lead docent with the Northern California Veterans’ Museum and Heritage Center in Redding, says, “If people have flags they’d like to retire, we invite them to come out and we’ll see that they’re disposed of properly.” He noted that the Boy Scouts, Girl Scouts and American Legion also accept retired flags for “honorable disposal” ceremonies. *note: Burning nylon flags produces hazardous gases. However, a new nylon recycling process can convert almost 100% of a nylon flag back into virgin grade nylon to be used in producing another American flag (www.americanflagdisposal.com). Contact your local Boy Scouts, Girl Scouts or American Legion about recycling options. continued on page 56

Flag Folding Ceremony (www.usflag.org/foldflag.html) Since a U.S. flag is never to be carried flat, folding is necessary before transporting, storing or presenting (such as at a military funeral to the next of kin). Traditional etiquette prescribes folding in half lengthwise twice, and then (from the end opposite the blue field) folding triangularly until reaching the other end. A standard flag will require thirteen folds: two lengthwise and eleven triangular, resulting in the creation of a triangular “pillow” of the flag with only the blue starred field showing on the outside. When this folding method first gained popularity, there was no symbolic meaning attached. Over time, the public has attributed meaning to each fold, reflecting both religious and American ideals. There are several interpretations but one of the most popular follows: K The first fold is a symbol of life. K The second fold is a symbol of a belief in eternal life. K The third fold is a symbol of honor and remembrance of veterans. K The forth fold is a symbol of weakness. K The fifth fold is a tribute to our country. K The sixth fold is where our hearts lie. K The seventh fold is a tribute to our Armed Forces. K The eighth fold is a tribute to the one who entered into the valley of the shadow of death, so that we may see the light. K The ninth fold is a tribute to womanhood. K The tenth fold is a tribute to fathers. K The eleventh fold represents the lower portion of the seal of King David & King Solomon, glorifying the God of Abraham, Isaac & Jacob. K The twelfth fold represents the emblem of eternity and glorifies the God of the Father, the Son & Holy Ghost. K When the folds are complete, the stars are uppermost, reminding us of the national motto, “In God we Trust.” Of the ceremonial folding at military funerals, retired Marine Corps Lt. Col. Carl Bott says, “When the flag is folded, a coin or an insignia representing the type of service is placed in the last fold before the flag is handed to the family.” Once fully folded, the flag resembles a cocked hat, like that of soldiers, marines and sailors of the past and present. • Claudia Mosby is a writer and part-time college instructor.

N I C K PA R K E R O F C H E E S E C A K E S U N L I M I T E D H O N O R S N AT I O N A L C H E E S E C A K E D AY North State residents adore cheesecake. Tastes run toward classic style but special flavors are popular too, says Nick Parker, owner of Cheesecakes Unlimited. His gamble on the community’s cheesy romance has kept residents in graham crusts and creamy cheese for 20 years. And though unendorsed by the government, some understanding soul enabled cheesecake consumption to be guilt-free for one special day by dubbing July 30 National Cheesecake Day. It might be surprising to know that cheesecake did not originate in New York or Philadelphia. Actually, cheesecake has existed since long before Columbus proved the earth was round.
The Greeks made the earliest known cheesecakes. A third-century recipe recorded in Athens suggested adding honey and spring wheat flour to two pounds of cheese that had been pounded and run through a sieve. When Greece fell to the Romans, religion and mythology weren’t the only casualties. The Empire adopted the Greeks’ secret cheesecake recipe and stamped it with a Roman seal by adding a pastry base. Romans offered these “placenta” cakes as they were called (yes, really) to their gods. As the Roman reach expanded, cheesecakes emigrated to Europe continued on page 60

and from Europe to the United States. By then, beaten eggs, butter and sugar had jumped onto the pan-wagon to establish cheesecake as a desirable dessert. Americans added cream cheese. In America, regional debates linger over version superiority. New York cheesecake, in its classic state, is meant to be served sans fruit, chocolate and caramel. Its smooth finish and signature flavor come compliments of extra egg yolk. Philadelphia cheesecake, on the other hand, is allowed the sweet toppings and generally boasts a lighter, creamier style. Chicago, not to be outdone, puts a spin on the treat by whipping sour cream into its body. Cheesecakes Unlimited employs a variation of these, plus a dash of its own flair. When Parker opened Cheesecakes Unlimited in downtown Redding 20 years ago, he answered a demand that began in another area restaurant. “We would make 80-100 pumpkin cheesecakes all by ourselves” around Thanksgiving, he remembers. Now the restaurant has a staff of chefs who whip up six flavor variations daily, including the classic, of course, as well as lemon, chocolate and almond amaretto. They also make a raspberry version from fresh, pureed raspberries and the local favorite, Mocha Baileys flavored with Baileys Irish Cream .” Through the years, Parker has tested flavor variations such as egg nog, orange/cranberry, peanut butter, key lime and green mint chocolate. His only flavor failure was pineapple — “not because I couldn’t make it,” but because the acid made it cottage cheese-like. “We can’t have that,” he says. Lucky for the baking challenged, Google offers plenty
recipe by Roman politician Marcus Porcius Cato (234-149 B.C.) 2 pounds cheese well crushed in a mortar; when it is well-crushed, add in 1 pound bread-wheat flour or, if you want it to be lighter, just 1/2 a pound, to be mixed with the cheese. Add one egg and mix all together well. Make a loaf of this, with the leaves under it, and cook slowly in a hot fire under a brick.

of simple cheesecake recipes, though experts such as Jessica Tamturk, travel and food writer, don’t think simple does the cake justice. Her advice to home chefs is to: 1) invest in a teflon-coated springform pan. “The surest way to ruin a cheesecake is to not use (one),” and 2) don’t overbeat eggs. The additional air causes cracks on the finished surface. Her favorite but weirdest cheesecake flavor is a beer and cheddar rendition, which stems from the British Isles. The recipe is included in the international chapter in her book, "Amazing Cheesecakes" (available on Amazon). Come July 30, remember to grind some graham crackers and whip some cheese. On second thought, who needs an official day? Cheesecake is a fine finish any time. Why wait? • Carrie Schmeck is a lifestyle and family features writer who has called Redding home since 2001.

a dog’s life all about
the dog days of north state writer tress holdridge
While sitting in a volunteer orientation at Mercy Medical Center in Redding, Tress Holdridge noticed the open calendar of a woman sitting next to her. “Almost every day was filled,” she says. “I asked her how she had time to volunteer with such a busy schedule.” The woman, a full-time pet sitter, told Holdridge those were the dates she was scheduled to look after her four-legged charges. She had a dilemma, though: she was double-booked and needed a stand-in for a weekend job so she could accept a longer assignment. “She asked me if I would take it, so I did,” Holdridge says. That was four years ago, and she liked her fill-in work so much she decided to continue pet-sitting. In spite of the perks, Holdridge has to contend with some pretty particular temperaments, as well as a dog’s physical needs and limitations. All her charges are “spoiled” rescue dogs, she says. Although they can be some pretty tough customers, she admits to loving them and the work. “The little dogs have such personalities,” she says. “They look at you like you’re a slow learner when you make them do something they’re not used to doing,” like sharing. One dog has a satin pillow that he pulls and paws at until he removes it from underneath her pillow on the bed, getting it into just the right position before flopping down and staring up at her with a “you just don’t get it!” expression on his face. One of her more vivid memories is of sitting for three dogs that had a very specific dinnertime routine. “The owners told me to tune the television to a specific channel for the 6:30 news while feeding the dogs in the living room,” she says. She happened to be watching another program and didn’t change the channel but prepared their dinner and placed it on the living room floor as instructed. “They wouldn’t eat,” she says. “I didn’t get it.” Then she remembered that the owners had mentioned a specific television station. Once she changed the channel, dinner was served. “Those dogs recognized the voice of the newscasters and that was their signal that it was time to eat,” she says. She has one dog that will only listen to classical music. “Otherwise, he sits with his back to me and pouts,” she says. Another sits on his hind legs with his paws up in prayer position. “It’s his ritual before 62 Enjoy July 2012
getting his daily vitamins,” she adds. With such idiosyncratic personalities, she started making notes: Not only the essentials, like name, address and emergency contact numbers, but habits, character traits and behavior. Later, these notes would serve as the basis for her book, “Sleeping Around at 84!,” an homage to the dogs she’s met. “I’ve always liked to write,” she says. “I wrote book reports for the football team in high school so they could stay eligible to play.” Years later, she turned to writing again as part of a writers’ group with the Redding Newcomers and soon afterwards was asked to write about her volunteer experiences at Mercy Medical Center for its guild members’ newsletter. One day while pet sitting, she wrote a story about one of the dogs. The owners told her she should write about all the dogs and publish the stories. “Everyone always wanted me to write about their dog,” Holdridge says. “They wanted to know what I thought about them.” It wasn’t until she was lying in bed one night that inspiration struck. “I used to work for a neurosurgeon who told me to always keep a pad by the bed,” she says. “I started thinking, ‘What am I doing with my life at 84, sleeping around with dogs?’” She rolled over and wrote it down. In the morning, she called her daughter to ask what she thought about the book idea. So began her journey to published author. Holdridge speaks frequently to community organizations about her experiences, where she’s often asked to autograph books in memory of a deceased pet. Last December, at a book signing at Vintner’s Cellar, more than 100 fans helped her celebrate, including Jack, one of the book’s featured dogs, who sent her roses. Dog lovers can find the book at Enjoy the Store. A portion of the proceeds is donated to Haven Humane Society and the Doris Day Foundation. • Exceptional Living

the gap
the double - arched lake siskiyou bridge
Bridges are the magic that links two distant places together. The Lake Siskiyou Bridge draws the north and south shores of the lake near. A summer afternoon paints a fairytale with boats passing underneath, youth swimming below, as families stroll over the 260-foot span. The bridge laces together a trail encircling the lake, creating a fairytalelike walk of 7.6 miles. For more than a decade, the Mount Shasta Trail Association and hundreds of volunteers planned and labored over the trail which threads through the pine forest surrounding the water. In 2010, funds allowed for construction of the bridge. Monies came from the federal Regional Trails Program, CalTrans Transportation Enhancement, the McConnell Foundation, smaller grants and continued on page 68

$1.2 million from the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009. These covered the $2.5 million budget for the project. Set against the panorama of Mt. Shasta, the double-arched bridge looms over the mouth of Wagon Creek. Lapping water, bird song and children’s laughter provide music for those crossing. The bridge was designed and engineered by the same team responsible for the Sundial Bridge in Redding, with more than 100 participants in its creation and construction. Barges brought the equipment to build the bridge from the opposite side of the lake, bringing a surreal dream to life in the remote location. The walk curves and weaves along the shore. At points, the water mirrors Mt. Shasta, giving the feeling that one could step to another world as easily as Alice moved through the looking glass. The wind moves slowly through the forest, with wildlife viewing the strangers visiting their world. Hikers work across the shallow delta at the western end of the water, while anglers bring in their catches on the nearby beach. The bridge enables the trail to complete its journey through the developed campground and marina, moving across Box Canyon Dam and daring a peek over the 209-foot drop into the canyon below. Each turn brings a new view of mountains, and the serenity of the north shore brings a peace which emanates from the bridge’s graceful curves to the peaks of the Cascades above. There is an enchantment in walking high above the waters of Lake Siskiyou. People stroll from the nearby parking lot down to the bridge to wonder and find the magic in a moment, pausing along the walkway of the span. As public servant Bruce Jackson said, “Bridges become frames for looking at the world around us.” • www.mountshastatrailassociation.org

once at Roxie’s roxie ’ s deli and bbq in los molinos
It started with paint. When a deep red hue was added to one of the buildings that lines Highway 99 in Los Molinos about a year and a half ago, people started talking. Some were taken aback, others were simply intrigued. What could possibly be happening at this building that had once been an auto shop? By the time the black trim was added and the sign was in place, people were stopping in to Roxie’s Deli and BBQ out of sheer curiosity. This was just fine with owner Speero Tannous. “All it takes is one time,” he says. “You come in here once and you’re a customer for life.” What may seem like hyperbole could actually qualify as truth when you consider that every two weeks, a couple from Sacramento routes itself through Los Molinos to get sandwiches for a road trip to Oregon. Or that people from Red Bluff who need to do business in Los Molinos are known to schedule themselves there around the lunch hour so they can stop in. What is becoming a new hit in Tehama County is actually the family legacy of 40 years in the deli business. Tannous’ father and three uncles purchased Roxie’s Place, an old Russian deli in San Francisco, shortly after emigrating from Palestine. One of the brothers later branched off to open Roxie’s Market & Deli in
Sacramento. By the time 25-year-old Tannous decided to open Roxie’s Deli & BBQ in Los Molinos, he had literally spent a lifetime in the deli business. Lucky for North State diners, Tannous’ Bay Area connections influence his business. With bread a defining element of any good sandwich, the par-baked rolls he has shipped in from Raymond’s Bakery in San Francisco and bakes daily are one of the most appreciated aspects of the Roxie’s experience. In the morning, he bakes up fresh croissants and bagels to serve breakfast sandwiches. A breakfast menu was an afterthought, and he decided to offer it because he was already in the building by 6 am, starting his barbecue and prepping veggies and meats. In a tip of the hat to his roots — his father is from Jordan and his mother is from Jerusalem — Tannous also has baklava shipped in from San Francisco. The item had gone relatively unnoticed on a refrigerated shelf until the day a connoisseur of the treat asked for a piece. She ended up writing a letter to the editor of the Red Bluff Daily News singing its praises. Since then, the call for baklava has “blown up,” according to Tannous. Cheesecake shipped in from Mazzetti’s Bakery in the Bay Area is also popular. Every new branch of a family business needs an continued on page 72

individual signature of its owner. At Roxie’s in Los Molinos, it’s the addition of barbecue, a passion for Tannous. He offers tri-tip, ribs, pulled pork and brisket on a rotating schedule throughout the week. His giant barbecue and smoker is almost an art installation outside the business and certainly makes it clear that he’s dedicated to the process. He has included an area for patrons to eat in; Tannous enjoys camaraderie with his customers, so an opportunity to have them linger suits his nature. In the future, he hopes to expand his catering business and have a food cart. The additions are part of his philosophy to “take what we love and love to do and sell it.” With such strong ties to the Bay Area and Sacramento, people may wonder how he got to the tiny town of Los Molinos. The answer is pretty simple. His uncle owned the building that housed the tire shop and gave the go ahead to “flip it into a deli.” Tannous is fond of saying, “Education feeds the mind. Roxie’s feeds the soul.” For an ever-growing list of truckers, commuters, passersby and locals, the soul is indeed being nourished in this Tehama County hamlet on Highway 99. • Roxie’s Deli and BBQ• 7810 Hwy 99E • Los Molinos (530) 384-1455 Mon-Fri 7am-7pm; Saturday 10am-7pm Sunday 10am-5pm

History
Story: Dottie Smith

S hasta C ounty ’ s T win J ailhouses Shasta County was hit hard by the Depression, as farmers saw crop prices fall almost 60 percent and half of Americans were out of work. In 1935, President Franklin Delano Roosevelt came to the rescue and convinced Congress to pass the Emergency Relief Appropriation Act, which provided employment to millions of unemployed workers through public works projects. Almost every town in the United States had something constructed by the Works Progress Administration. Shasta County was lucky to have many projects built – roads, rock retaining walls, public buildings, and yes, even jailhouses. Two jailhouses, also called bastilles, were built in 1936 at either end of the county. The first was built in Anderson at the northwest corners of Balls Ferry Road, Freeman Street and South Street, where it still stands (it has been closed for decades). Its twin was built on lower Bridge Street in Fall River Mills, but was closed in 1956 and later donated and moved up the hill to the grounds of the Fort Crook Museum. A crew of seven men built both jails. Ironically, the first prisoner in the Fall River Mills jail was one of the men who helped build it.
74 Enjoy July 2012
Each jail contained two cells, one on each end of the concrete building. The single outside door opened into a small vestibule which separated the cells. An oil stove in the vestibule provided heat for the building. Each cell contained a wash basin, a drinking fountain, a toilet and a cot with a blanket. The jails were constructed with steel reinforced concrete walls and floors. Housecleaning was simple; it was performed with a water hose that hosed down the walls, floors and toilets. Prisoners were not held in the jails for any length of time; they were used mainly as overnight holding cells or as a place where people were held overnight to dry out after a night of heavy drinking. The Anderson jail has been spruced up by its owner, the city of Anderson, which has landscaped the front. There has been talk of opening it up and using it as a fundraiser with perhaps a dinner served inside to the lucky winner. • Dottie Smith caught her history writing bug as soon as she moved here in the mid-’70s.

REDDING FIRE DETECTIVES ON THE SCENE The charred remains of a matchbook. A blackened outlet adapter. A melted light bulb. A pea-shaped chunk of tobacco ash. As Craig Wittner and Dean Herzberg pull these items out of a cardboard box, they reflect on the fires that each one caused. Details about the blazes roll off their tongues with stunning clarity, as if etched in their memories. “It may look like garbage to some people, but they’re smoking guns to us,” Wittner says. Redding’s two fire investigators are the detectives of the Redding Fire Department, charged with figuring out what – and sometimes, who – caused a blaze. “We’re called out when a fire involves any injury or fatality, major
property damage or when additional expertise is needed to determine the cause of fire,” Wittner says. “In the summertime, it seems like we’re running from fire to fire.” Getting to the bottom of a fiery mystery can either be rewarding or frustrating, they say. “Sometimes there’s nothing but a smoking hole in the ground,” Wittner says. “You’re looking at a smoking, blackened bunch of debris and you’re expected to figure out what happened.” The first order of business is to determine where the fire started. Investigations are a careful blend of experience, training and science. “The way things burn, the way they destroy, different temperatures of fires ... from the way a piece of copper has melted to the way a piece of metal4 continued on page 78 July 2012 Enjoy 77
on the wall is distorted to the way a light bulb is still intact” are all clues, Herzberg says. For instance, a light bulb expands to the side with the most heat, so if it survives a fire, it will “point” at where the fire came from, he says. “After we determine the area of origin, we figure out what actually started the fire - appliances, candles, cigarettes, kids playing with matches. You’d be amazed at what stays behind if you know what you’re looking for,” says Wittner, who came to the Redding Fire Department in March 2004 after working as a building inspector. A recent backyard fire began after a man stained his fence with linseed oil. Rags soaked with this oil generate heat as they decompose, so the investigators knew they were looking for a “clinker” - a piece of hardened cloth, about the size of an eraser. And they were sure that a fire inside a big rig was started by a cigarette. Although the driver said he hadn’t been smoking in the cab, a piece of tobacco ash the size of a pea told a different story. “The ash looked like the rest of the charred material around it, but it moved differently,” Wittner says. “We can use something as small as a spoon to dig something out, like an archaeologist,” adds Herzberg, whose firefighting history began in 1973 as a volunteer. He took administration of justice and fire science courses at Shasta College, and has worked full-time for the city since 1986. He and Wittner both serve on regional and statewide arson boards. Roadside fires can frequently be attributed to discarded cigarettes or wayward car parts. Wittner holds up an inch-long piece from a catalytic converter, which burns at up to 2000 degrees when it gets plugged up. The pressure builds, it flies out the tailpipe and a fire can erupt, he says. Brake pieces also cause many roadside fires. At home, poorly connected outlet adapters or power strips are “building burners,” Wittner says. “Electricity is just electron traffic going back and forth, and a poor connection is like a traffic jam. It generates heat, and then it fails.” Sometimes it trips the breaker - other times it starts a fire. Fireworks are also big firestarters in the summer, Wittner says. 78 Enjoy July 2012
Sometimes, Wittner and Herzberg end up in the midst of criminal investigations. They pinned down a serial arsonist by figuring out his unique method of firestarting, which ultimately led to his arrest. Why would someone intentionally start a fire? “Sometimes it’s just thrills and experimentation,” Wittner says. “I set my mom’s living room table on fire when I was 10. It wasn’t malicious - it was just experimentation.” For adults, the reasons can include spite, revenge, anger or a “hero complex,” where someone secretly starts a fire so they can be the one to discover and extinguish it. Sometimes a person wants to conceal evidence in a crime, as was the case with a stolen vehicle that was found burned up (fingerprints don’t always disappear in a fire, they note). One man did more than $1 million in damages by starting six fires -the action helped him “relieve stress” after arguing with his girlfriend, Wittner says. The majority of Wittner and Herzberg’s work, however, is prevention. They’re also the city’s fire inspectors, so they go to schools, hospitals, day cares, homes for the elderly and the like to ensure that there are sufficient exits, fire extinguishers, smoke alarms and exit procedures. When a room has a “maximum capacity” sign, they’re the ones who enforce those limits. They also make sure that addresses are visible on the outsides of buildings so emergency responders can find them easily, which is especially critical when someone calls 911 with a medical crisis. “We can see the smoke from the street, but we can’t see a heart attack,” Wittner says. And they spend lots of times educating school-aged children about safety. “It’s hard to measure what you prevent, but we hear, ‘I went and got a fire extinguisher’ or ‘I’m so glad you talked to the kids - they knew to make sure we had two ways out,’” Wittner says. •

Wonderful Waffles My sisters are coming to California just in time to celebrate with Leah, my twin sister, our July birthday! We are rarely able to share our birthdays, so I wanted to create a special breakfast, something really decadent (it is a birthday celebration after all) and deliciously different for my twin sister. I just know they will both love this Southern birthday breakfast treat. These waffles are rich and moist, and the sweet toasted coconut syrup and crunchy pecan butter makes them a delicious breakfast or dessert item that anyone would love. Happy Birthday, Sis!

BILLY & PATRICK’S ENJOYABLES! BILLY: My parents used to say “because I said so!” and “do as I say, not as I do!” I don’t believe I’ve ever said either to my kids. PATRICK: “Turn on a light while you’re reading, you’re going to ruin your eyes.”
What’s something
your parents
used to say to you as a child that you swore you’d never say – but catch yourself saying
it all the time?
“...on God’s green earth!” And “one little i-ota!”~EronMarie We’ll see. ~Debra Eat your dinner. There are children starving in China. ~Kimberly

As a teenager when I was getting ready to go out, my mom used to say, “Pretend like I’m sitting on your shoulder.” I’d roll my eyes behind her back whenever she said that, but now I say it to my kids. I don’t think they like it, either. ~Beth I don’t know isn’t an answer! ~JD When I was your age, I had to... ~Lee If you don’t stop making that face, it’s going to freeze that way! ~Lisa

name CHRISTY DELL
occupation LITTLE DREAMERS MEDIA
WHAT’S IN STORE CHRISTY DELL, AUTHOR Christy Dell’s three adventurous boys inspired her to write and publish her first children’s book, “The Three Pirate Brothers and the Hidden Treasure.” In the story, three brothers set off on a treasure-hunting adventure to Africa. They discover a treasure that’s only visible through a magical spyglass, and it allows the boys to see themselves and each other as they were truly meant to be seen. Dell’s second book, “The Three Pirate Brothers and the Lost Princess,” was published late last year and it chronicles the pirates’ trek to Asia after they receive a message in a bottle from a girl who needs rescuing. In addition to writing, Dell flexes her creative muscles by cooking, painting and sewing. Her books are available at Enjoy the Store. What was the inspiration for your first book? A couple of people had told me that I should write a story. Then about four years ago, a friend said she’d had a dream about me, and saw me writing a book. I had three boys (and have since had a baby girl), and they loved pirates. I knew that if I were to write a story, I’d write a kids’ story. The idea came to me within a few days, and I had my friends read it. I looked at options for having it published, but the traditional route can take years and years, so I published the first book myself.
90 Enjoy July 2012
on the store front Coming next month in the “What’s in Store” section, What Would Your Mother Do?
What do you enjoy most about writing? I enjoy coming up with a story and telling it to my kids. I enjoy imagining the story. Your first book takes place in Africa and the second takes the pirates to Thailand. Why did you choose these settings? I was born in Indonesia and I think of it as a homeland. I lived overseas half my life; we left when I was going into the sixth grade. I lived a little bit in the Philippines and Guam. I have a soft place in my heart for different cultures. Do you have another book in mind? There’s one I’d like to write about joy with the pirate brothers, and also maybe a novel for teenagers. What do you hope that people take away from your books? I hope kids understand that they are truly valuable and unique. For moms and dads, it’s a good reminder of helping children treasure themselves and see the gold in others. Tell us about your family. My children are Samuel, 10; Micah, 8; Isaac, 5; and Cayla, 5 months. My husband, Chris, is from Cottonwood, and we have lived in Redding for nine years. • www.littledreamersmedia.com

M aurice J ohannessen ’ s support for north state veterans
Needless to say, with his blond hair and a pair of skis over his shoulder, 17-year-old K. Maurice Johannessen stood out on that June day when he stepped off the freighter and onto the dock in San Pedro. Not that the young Norwegian really cared about appearances; he was in America, where he knew the streets were paved with gold. Sixty years later, Johannessen, 77, still believes this is the land of milk and honey. “It is true. You have to dream a little and work hard and it will come true. I’ve been more blessed than anyone can believe, and it’s a result of living in this country with all the opportunities and blessings.” And just like the United States of America, the country he has fervently cherished since becoming a citizen a half-century ago, Johannessen’s life has been one of intriguing contrasts, opportunities and accomplishments. He’s a conservative law-and-order Republican, a zealous defender of the Constitution and its Bill of Rights and a strong advocate of American capitalism, yet the father of four also strives to lead a life, both public and private, that is a testament to cultural sensitivity and a belief that a person should not be judged by their gender, race, sexual orientation or any other factor. Johannessen has made the most of his opportunities. He has been successful in both business and politics and he is revered in the North State for his unflagging support of veterans. Evidence of his myriad accomplishments fights for space on his office walls, with his 2011 Citizen of the Year plaque being one of the latest additions.4 continued on page 94 July 2012 Enjoy 93
Johannessen’s patriotism and support of veterans can be traced back to his upbringing. Although born in Oslo, Norway, Johannessen spent his first five years in the central Africa country of Chad, where his parents served as missionaries. By the time the family returned to Norway in 1939, the dark clouds of Nazism had already gathered. On April 9, 1940, the German army occupied Norway. Johannessen’s father, Gustav, became active in the Nazi resistance, publishing an underground newspaper and even helping Jews escape into Sweden. The senior Johannessen—a physician who was fluent in three languages—was ultimately arrested and confined to a concentration camp. Johannessen was reunited with his family after the war, which was when he got his first introduction to American troops that marched in Oslo in celebration of the Allies’ triumph. As Johannessen’s life slowly returned to normal, a sense of wanderlust began to set in— fueled by reading and watching RKO News reels and John Wayne movies in the theaters. Signing on with the merchant marine helped satisfy his desire for travel, and it also provided him with passage to the United States as a teenager. It did not help him when immigration agents promptly arrested him and had him deported to Mexico, the nearest foreign country. With help from his father, Johannessen quickly had his papers in order and re-entered the United States from Tijuana. With a very limited command of the English language, no job prospects and the Korean War underway, Johannessen enlisted in the Army Air Corps and worked stateside as a helicopter mechanic. While in the service, his lack of U.S. citizenship came to light, but his rather embarrassed superior officers remedied that by hustling Johannessen to San Francisco where he passed the test and was quickly administered the oath of citizenship. Following his discharge, Johannessen moved to Redding in 1960 to help his brother, John, with an electronics repair business. An abiding love for his new home town sparked a long and prosperous career in real estate and development. In honor of his Norwegian ancestry, Johannessen opened a roller rink in 1974 and named it Viking Skate Country. The business is managed by Johannessen’s wife of 34 years, Marianne. 94 Enjoy July 2012
Once he was well-established in the business world, Johannessen committed himself to giving back to the community through public service. He was elected to the Redding City Council in 1986 and won a seat on the Shasta County Board of Supervisors in 1990. After serving two terms in the state Senate, Johannessen was appointed Secretary of Veterans Affairs in 2002. He held that statewide cabinet post for a year. A dogged legislator who largely eschewed partisan politics in favor of getting things done, Johannessen was instrumental in the creation of the Northern California Veterans Cemetery in Igo and the California Veterans Home on Knighton Road in Redding. His work on behalf of veterans didn’t stop once he left Sacramento. Johannessen single-handedly ramrodded construction of a non-denominational chapel at the Igo cemetery—a project his friends in the capital and elsewhere assured him would never happen. Last year, he purchased 16 acres of land adjacent to the Veterans Home with the goal of building 111 independent living units for veterans. A parcel has been set aside for an expanded VA clinic to replace the Hartnell Avenue clinic that will be closing in the next couple of years. “Ideally, I’ll build it out and they (the Veterans Administration) can just take it and run with it,” Johannessen says. Rob Burroughs, an Iraq war veteran and director of the Northern California Veterans Museum, believes Johannessen’s can-do attitude and selfless spirit stems from Johannessen’s experience as an immigrant and his gratitude to the Army for helping him become a citizen. “That’s where his love for country and love for military comes from,” Burroughs says. “That’s how it is a lot of times with immigrants. They feel they have to work twice as hard, and Maurice has always shown that. He’s a well-liked person and a very successful businessman, and he has been able to use that in a positive manner. He’s not a selfish man. He has used a lot of his personal wealth to help the veterans’ community.” •
