This is the moment awaited by Maitreya, the World Teacher, for his public emergence, says Benjamin Creme. Maitreya is a colossal cosmic avatar with limitless love and immeasurable wisdom, and at the same time is a friend and brother of humanity.

Look for a star-like luminary of brilliant power, visible in the sky night and day, as a sign that their open mission is about to begin.

A0280; 1;DAB It is with great concern that I read David Templetonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s review of Cat on a Hot Tin Roof at Summer Repertory Theatre (â&#x20AC;&#x153;â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Catâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Nip,â&#x20AC;? July 1). While Mr. Templeton is entitled to his opinion about the interpretation of the play, his comments about the casting are troubling. I am a longtime subscriber to SRT, and one of the things I like best about the last few years is the commitment to color-blind casting.

Last season, we saw an African-American play Leo Bloom in The Producers, and the season before had actors of color sprinkled throughout.

Mr. Templeton says he supports color-blind casting, but then spends most of his remarks disparaging the choice to have an actor of color play the iconic role of Maggie the Cat. Again, he is welcome to criticize the interpretation of the play, but it is unjust to criticize the casting of an individual based on the color of his or her skin.

Summer Repertory Theatre brings in a talented young actress from the Cayman Islands (which

makes her Afro-Caribbean, not African-American), but Mr. Templeton insists she is not talented enough to justify having a black actress play the role. I cannot be the only one who thinks that his remarks are racist! Havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t we moved beyond this? Is President Obama talented enough to justify having a black person in his position? Mr. Templeton claims himself to be â&#x20AC;&#x153;normally a proponent of color-blind casting,â&#x20AC;? but focuses his attention on finding a justification for casting this beautiful young woman.

He completely omits the fact that there are other actors of color in this production. The Rev. Tooker is played by a black actor; is this justified, or is the actor simply talented enough to make it work? One of the â&#x20AC;&#x153;no-neck-monstersâ&#x20AC;? is an Asian girlâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;how could she be a member of this predominantly white family? You cannot have it both ways, Mr. Templeton; either you support using the best person for the job, regardless of skin color, or you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t! Furthermore, Cat on a Hot Tin Roof is not a play about race. I have seen the play a few times, and while it is set in Mississippi in the mid 1950s, Tennessee Williams

is not discussing racial hatred or division. Why Mr. Templeton brings this into it is a mystery to me. His review was shamefulâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;you should be ashamed of yourselves for promoting the racial divide.

<0A2DB F78C4

B0=C0 A>B0

David Templeton responds: My years of reviewing demonstrate my commitment to color-blind casting, with my positive review of last yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;The Producers,â&#x20AC;&#x2122; which you mention, as one recent example. I wish there were more of it in this county. Still, I believe my comments on the casting of black actors in this specific production of â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Catâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; (and this includes those actors of color I simply had no space to mention in my original review) is supportable. It is simply not true that color-blind casting works in all instances.

My all-time favorite American playwright, the late great August Wilson, would never have allowed, on a whim, a white actress to play Aunt Esther or any other member of his beautifully crafted African-American families. It would have made no sense. While I agree that in the majority of shows, color-blind casting is important and laudableâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;and I applaud director James Newman for trying something newâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;there are times when it simply doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t work and ultimately detracts from the show. I believe this production of â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Catâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; is one of those instances.

08=½C =DC78=½ ;8:4 C74 A40; C78=6 Re â&#x20AC;&#x153;411 on PSOâ&#x20AC;? (Letters, July 15): While this letter is so absurd it does not justify a serious response, it does deserve derisive mocking. Unfortunately, due to budget cutbacks, I wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t take the time. Instead, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll just quote him, if merely for my own laughs: â&#x20AC;&#x153;He . . . looked at porn on a computer and got hooked for life.â&#x20AC;? Do people really take this guy seriously?

David Templetonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x153;Wretch Like Meâ&#x20AC;? (July 15) was very simply and beautifully told, showing why people are drawn to certain types of religion without the judgment and polarities often evoked about evangelical Christianity; about how there was a spiritual growth and revelation and how that revelation created beauty and love in life. The ending was so tender and full of heart, it brought me to tears. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s what real religion is about.

C01;43 Water conference members regroup during lunch last week at the Sonoma Mountain Village.

Frost, runoff, nonpotables and other watery issues filled the day

By Daniel Hirsch

C

he first ever Wine Country Water Summit on July 16 looked like the start of any corporate conference: attendees flipped through their welcome packets and lined up for diluted coffee. However, the summit soon resembled a high school cafeteria as cliques and gangs merged and eyed each other suspiciously. When it comes to water in Sonoma County, things donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t always flow so smoothly.

As one presenter, quoting Mark Twain, put it: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Whiskey is for drinking, water is for fighting over.â&#x20AC;?

In January of this year, the Sonoma County Water Agency (SCWA) declared a countywide drought, causing alarm among city officials, local farmers and environmental advocates alike. Lake

Mendocino, the source of the Russian River, which provides water to most of Sonoma County, is currently at only 64 percent of its capacity. A trade journal for the wine industry, Vineyard & Winery Management, saw the implications of low water levels for its readers and organized the conference, attracting engineers, geologists, winery managers, business consultants, well diggers, growers, city officials and a handful of concerned citizens. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Everybody seemed to be biting their nails,â&#x20AC;? said publisher Robert Merletti. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We thought that someone should take the first step to bring agricultural and business communities together to start dialogue.â&#x20AC;?

The conferenceâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s keynote speaker, engineer J. Dietrich Stroeh, was in charge of the Marin Municipal Water District during that countyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s legendary 1976â&#x20AC;&#x201C;â&#x20AC;&#x2122;77 drought, when the main reservoir dropped below

50 percent capacity. Stroeh led the MMWD to radically reduce its water use and find new sources of water for the district. The titular hero of Michael McCarthyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 2007 book The Man Who Made It Rain about the drought, Stroeh explained that it took the cooperation of the entire community to reduce its water intake. People had block parties to compare water meter readings and carpooled to San Francisco to take showers.

Stroeh acknowledged, however, that things have only gotten more complicated when it comes to water issues. â&#x20AC;&#x153;In the old days, there were only three interests: municipal, industrial and agriculture,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Now, there are so much more: environmental groups, recreational, fisheries, business. . . . There are tons of competing interests.â&#x20AC;?

this theme of complexity, stressing the importance of addressing all facets of water management, from endangered salmon to climate change. She also explained that possible city action will undoubtedly be expensive. Projects to create more storage for surface water and build more facilities for recycling water could cost the city hundreds of millions of dollars. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been complacent for so many years,â&#x20AC;?

Gorin said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We may have to bite the bullet.â&#x20AC;?

Things only got more complex and dire as the morning wore on. Sonoma County Water Agency consultant David Smith presented on endangered species issues and on a piece of outdated legislation cryptically titled Decision 1610. Smith said bluntly: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s complicated.â&#x20AC;?

Essentially, Decision 1610 dictates minimum flow requirements for the Russian River based on information from Lake Pillsbury, which mostly feeds into the Eel River, a completely different watershed. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s an obsolete rule. All parties involved are up for changing it,â&#x20AC;? Smith said.

The Endangered Species Act lists three main endangered species in the Russian River: the Chinook and coho salmon and the steelhead trout. However, Smith also noted that orca whales, which feed on salmon hundreds of miles away, are also implicated in Russian River water issues.

The National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS, and pronounced â&#x20AC;&#x153;nimfsâ&#x20AC;? for anyone in the know) has issued a report called the â&#x20AC;&#x153;Biological Opinionâ&#x20AC;? that dictates a reassessment of Decision 1610 for the benefit of the endangered fish populations on the Russian River, calling for a reduction in the flows on the Russian River to rehabilitate juvenile salmon habitats.

Low flows may be good for salmon but could detract from the river in other vital ways. Russian River Watershed Protection Committee board chair Brenda Adelman frequently grilled presenters about the many implications of their water-management ideas. She worries that the SCWA isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t putting enough emphasis on conservation. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m not saying they shouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t lower flows at all, but when you lower them, there are a lot of water-quality problems,â&#x20AC;? Adelman said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s too low, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s almost impossible for canoes and kayaks to go there. If there was more conservation in the city, [the SCWA] could put more flow into the river.â&#x20AC;?

In the last presentation before a muchawaited lunch, SCWA assistant general manager Grant Davis spoke on a panel with Sean White, the general manager of the Mendocino County Russian River Flood Control and Water Conservation Improvement District (what White deemed a â&#x20AC;&#x153;26-syllable name for a one-man public agencyâ&#x20AC;?). Davis and White addressed big questions and concerns for the gathered wine industry: irrigation and frost prevention.

From March to May, frost can be deadly to grapevines, so growers often employ an â&#x20AC;&#x153;aspersion systemâ&#x20AC;? through which they sprinkle vines with water before an oncoming frost. White explained that if Mendocino County growers, who work in colder climates than those in Sonoma County, are faced with a â&#x20AC;&#x153;Sophieâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s choiceâ&#x20AC;? between using water for irrigation and using water for frost prevention, â&#x20AC;&#x153;100 percentâ&#x20AC;? will choose the latter.

Before NMFS established the Russian

River Watershed Frost Prevention Pumping Task Force in July 2008, drawing from the Russian River for frost control had been mostly unregulated, which in the past few years has led to several large-scale fish kills. White pointed to a line graph in his PowerPoint presentation that depicted the water levels in the Russian River during a night with a frost threat. The levels dropped down to 50 percent in that single night.

Though White supported the work of the task force, he said that grape growers could not live with a flat-out ban of the practice. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Frosting is a problem,â&#x20AC;? White said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But we canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t live with a ban; that will put the entire upper basin out of business.â&#x20AC;?

White argued that there needs to be a greater emphasis on creating more water storage and better communication between upper river and lower river management in Mendocino and Sonoma counties, respectively. He also suggested that much of the water used for frost prevention could be drawn from recycled water, essentially treated wastewater from urban use.

While conference-goers milled around during the lunch break, swapped business cards and ate pasta salad, there was at least one voice unsettled by the proposition of using urban wastewater for agricultural needs. â&#x20AC;&#x153;All this talk of recycled tertiary waterâ&#x20AC;&#x201D; itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s illegal!â&#x20AC;? said Rohnert Park resident Dawna Gallagher. â&#x20AC;&#x153;What about the runoff going into our water supply?â&#x20AC;?

Dan Carlson, deputy director of the Santa Rosa Subregional Water Reuse System, outlined Santa Rosaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s recycled water program. He stated that recycled water produced at the plant is clean enough to drink and that vineyards as high-profile as Gallo and Korbel happily use it for irrigation.

There remains some question about the total purity of the water; the California State Water Board is currently investigating the presence of flushed pharmaceuticals contaminating the recycled water.

For Adelman, Carlsonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s reassurance isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t enough. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s all these unregulated chemicals. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m still concerned that the state is dragging its feet and weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re losing species.â&#x20AC;?

Though the SCWA endorses the use of recycled water in vineyard management, not all vintners want to use it. Earlier this year, the board of supervisors had to put a hold on its ambitious North Sonoma County Agricultural Reuse Project, which would have provided treated water to farms and vineyards, because growers worried about its quality. Up until a year ago, recycled wastewater was free for growers; now it costs 95 percent of regular municipal water. Some growers donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t quite see the point.

By the end of the long day, with 17 different presentations in all, conferencegoers were fondling their BlackBerries and looking toward the windows with longing. Fatigued from the long day of panel discussions, PowerPoint presentations and the complex challenges of coming up with good solutions for water conservation, they could at least take comfort in the fact that the conversation had been started. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a long history of divisiveness,â&#x20AC;?

Adelman said at the end of the day. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is a step in the right direction towards good relationships.â&#x20AC;?

For SCWA, Smith agreed: â&#x20AC;&#x153;I thought it was a really constructive and productive forum to exchange ideas.â&#x20AC;?

Though water may be scarce in Sonoma County, when it comes to civilized dialogue, the floodgates are beginning to open.

Young workers and the Employee Free Choice Act

By Martin J. Bennett

>

nce again, a generation gap is evident in American politics and culture.

Young voters supported President Obama by a huge 2â&#x20AC;&#x201C;1 margin over Sen. John McCain in the national election last fall. A recent Pew Research Center poll reveals that differences between the young and old about social issues and values is greater than any time since the turbulent Vietnam and Civil Rights era of the 1960s.

Behind this widening generation gap are the declining economic prospects for young workers; not surprisingly, jobs and the economy are the top issues for young voters. Congress is currently considering the Employee Free Choice Act (EFCA) that would restore the right to organize a union.

President Obama supports the legislation, and approval by Congress is critical for the upward mobility of young workers and to rebuild the middle class.

In 1935, Congress passed the National Labor Relations Act to guarantee the rights of workers to organize a union and to bargain collectively for better pay, benefits and working conditions. However, today those rights exist only on paper, according to Human Rights Watch. During organizing campaigns, workers are forced to attend anti-union meetings with their supervisors; are routinely subjected to threats that a company will close if a union organizing drive is successful; and some 10,000 workers are illegally fired each year for exercising their right to organize a union.

Our current system is broken and must be overhauled. The EFCA will protect the right to organize by strengthening penalties for illegal violation of workersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; rights during an organizing campaign, and by providing an option for majority sign-up, which would require employers to recognize a union when a majority of workers have signed union authorization cards.

Young workers are now experiencing the most extended period of downward mobility since the Great Depression. According to a 2008 report, â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Economic State of Young America,â&#x20AC;? published by Demos, a nonprofit research organization: â&#x20AC;˘ The median annual earnings for young men (25â&#x20AC;&#x201C;34) with a high school education declined by 29 percent between 1975 and 2005, and decreased by 10 percent for young women who are high school graduates. The drop of earnings was even steeper for young African-American and Latino workers with only a high school education. â&#x20AC;˘ The median earnings for young men with a bachelorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s degree decreased 2 percent between 1975 and 2005, while the earnings for college-educated women increased slightly by 10 percent. â&#x20AC;˘ One in three young workers between the ages of 18 and 34 does not have

healthcare insurance, the highest rate by far for all age groups.

Moreover, economic mobility for young workers is constrained by the rising costs of higher education. Tuition at public universities has doubled since 1980 after adjusting for inflation. In 2006, more than half of all graduates from four-year institutions left with student loan debt averaging nearly $20,000.

The stagnation of wages and diminishing benefits for young workers over the last three decades is due to erosion of the inflationadjusted minimum wage; globalization and the export of good manufacturing jobs abroad; the dotcom tech bust of the late 1990s and the proliferation of low-wage service sector jobs; the increase of parttime and contingent employment; and, most importantly, the decline of union membership.

In 1955, 37 percent of private sector workers were union members, but in 2007 only 12 percent of all workers belonged to a union. Less than 5 percent of young workers are union members today.

Polling data suggests that young workers strongly support unions. Young workers are disproportionately clustered in nonunion, low-wage, service-sector industries such as hotels, restaurants, retail and security services. Implementation of the EFCA will likely lead to a major upsurge of unionization in these industries.

The benefits of union membership for young workers are substantial. A Center for Economic and Policy Research report indicates that young workers between 18 and 29 who are union members earn 12.4 percent moreâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;or about $1.75 per hourâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;compared to nonunion, and that 68 percent of young union workers receive health benefits compared to 38 percent for nonunion workers.

Congress must act now to comprehensively address the deteriorating economic conditions of young workers. Healthcare reform and a public option for the uninsured; increased support for higher education, such as needbased federal Pell grants for college tuition; paid family leave; and tax credits for first-time home buyers will all benefit young workers.

Most importantly, Congress should implement the EFCA to ensure a prosperous future for the next generation.

The Bohemian is â&#x20AC;&#x153;Going Greenâ&#x20AC;? Every Week!

THE BOHEMIAN

ome days, I just hate to hear the word â&#x20AC;&#x153;green,â&#x20AC;? especially if a corporation is using it in marketing materials. As a connoisseur of irony, I study the worst of them before rolling my eyes at the shiny bright labels of promised utopias and the weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re-going-green banners sentimentally illustrated with a Costa Rican tree frog, the ubiquitous rain-forest icon putting a cute face on a vague pronouncement. Just stop it already.

When green marketing claims turn out to be slimier than an amphibian and ultimately less attractive, I get a little irritated. OK, really irritated.

As world temperatures f luctuate, water resources decline and concern about resuscitating life on earth spreads from fringe groups to mainstream, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s really everyoneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s business to demand less bullshit in the marketplace. But how?

Because green chic invites pretenders and because it is increasingly â&#x20AC;&#x153;hotâ&#x20AC;? to be identified with the climate-protection efforts, whether you are making real changes or just blathering, we need metrics and a fraud squad to do the job right.

My own need for measurable proof dates back to when the false green claims began popping up in the product arena.

And never stopped. Marketers still use the adjectives â&#x20AC;&#x153;green,â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;naturalâ&#x20AC;? and â&#x20AC;&#x153;sustainableâ&#x20AC;? to hide a number of sins. But thanks to one environmental marketing group, these sins have been made public more than two decades after the term â&#x20AC;&#x153;greenwashingâ&#x20AC;? was coined.

TerraChoice marketing has analyzed more than a thousand so-called green consumer products and found that 99 percent misrepresented the touted environmental benefits of the product. Making up what the group calls the â&#x20AC;&#x153;Six Sins of Greenwashingâ&#x20AC;? are hidden trade-offs, lack of proof, vagueness, irrelevance, fibbing and the-lesser-of-two-evils approach. At their website, you can print a card-sized breakdown of the definitions to take shopping with you.

But for some educational fun, try a website where citizens can analyze and report green fraud: the Greenwashing Index (www.greenwashingindex.com), promoted

by EnviroMedia Social Marketing and the University of Oregon School of Journalism and Communication. Using this reporting tool, anyone can analyze the relevance of marketing claims, leading to a score that ranges from 1 (authentic) to 5 (bogus).

Visiting this site was a real morale booster for me, especially reading the postings by other members of the fraud squad.

One passionate reviewer assessed a television commercial called â&#x20AC;&#x153;Green Britain Dayâ&#x20AC;? with the following: â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is a mythical and grotesque distortion of reality. EDF, Ă&#x2030;lectricitĂŠ de France, is presenting itself as British and green; it is, in fact, a Frenchgovernment-owned nuclear energy company with fuel-burning power stations. For this campaign that is rumored to have a budget of 50 million British pounds, they have simply taken the iconic green Union Jack flag that was created by Ecotricity (a genuinely 100 percent green energy provider) and blasted it across the British media as their own. It is not just deceptive, it is cruel.

Brits will think that EDF is friendly, and it is not. It is toxic.

This company is shameful, and its advertising is nothing more than climatechange war propaganda.â&#x20AC;? Wow. EDF earned a 4.6 on the bogus meter for that one.

Another reviewer noticed that a bug spray container of 25 percent recycled plastic was cause for marketers to brand their insect poison as EcoSense. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is just funny,â&#x20AC;? the reviewer wrote. For that greenwashing, Ortho earned a 4.6.

Power plants and bug killers are obvious targets. But what about groovy clothing companies? Banana Republic offers discounts to customers who shop with a reusable bag sold at the store. But one reviewer exposed that no discounts go to those who use their own reusable bags. That earned Banana Republic a 3.5 for a self-serving campaign they call â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Easy Being Green.â&#x20AC;? Apparently not.

If I hoisted a marketing banner expressing my disagreement with Banana Republic and promoting the Greenwashing Index at the same time, it would include a frog. Not the face of a South American icon, but a local one: Kermit, the Muppet frog. I think Kermit had a prescient grasp of the effort involved in adopting good-for-all practices. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s easy to greenwash. But itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not easy being green.

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s really everyoneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s business to demand less bullshit in the marketplace.

Your visionâ&#x20AC;¦ my resources, dedication and integrityâ&#x20AC;¦ Together, we can catch your dream.

Hide and Seek Geocaching’s worldwide treasure hunt takes place right under our noses

By Jackie Johansen

he light from our alien tracking devices jumps over the trees and stones in front of us. We know that the aliens are here somewhere, but where?

The sky is clear and the moon shines down over Howarth Park. “Ding, ding,” beeps the GPS device, announcing that we are at our destination. The coordinates should mark the beginning of a trail of ref lective alien blood.

Earlier, we received a tip that if we follow the residue it will lead us to a crashed alien ship that has landed in the park. This is the cache we are after.

Unlike such traditional treasure-hunting activities as exploring the park with a metal detector, this is geocaching, a hide-and-seek game in which “treasure” is hidden in parks, parking lots, under lakes, in trees, in fence posts and in infinite other locations all over the world—all of it just waiting to be found, logged, admired and replaced.

It all began on May 2, 2000, when 24 satellites around the globe updated, making GPS technology better than ever.

Location hunting suddenly became easy, accessible and accurate.

On this night, the GPS device is in my brother Jeff ’s hand. Jeff likes to be known as the Cubemaster because he leaves a cubeshaped object as a calling card in the caches he finds. He looks down at the GPS and confirms we are in the right spot. Reflective shining alien blood must be here. Our buddy Kubo adjusts the lamp that he slid over his brow and tilts his head up toward the trees. John dances light of the crank lamp over stones that lay to the side of the path. Nothing yet. We start to walk down a dark clearing, Marshall eerily plays the XFiles theme song from his phone.

On May 4, 2002, near Beaver Creek, Ore., computer consultant Dave Ulmer held a black bucket rattling with treasure: a logbook, a pencil, videos, books, software and a slingshot. He hid the stash, noted the coordinates and posted them online to test the new accuracy of GPS devices.

Thus began what was then known as “The Great American GPS Stash Hunt.”

As with anything niche and cool, the game was discriminating—only those with the knowledge of fancy GPS lingo or those who even had GPS devices, such as serious backpackers, could play.

Web designer Jeremy Irish stumbled on to the game and was stoked when he found his first cache. Enthusiastically, he created Groundspeak.com, where all the cache listings were eventually standardized, a search for local caches was listed, and GPS slang was put into language that everyone could understand. By that September, a new world of geocaching was born. The “Great American GPS Stash Hunt” became the “GPS Stash Hunt” before adopting its current name, “geocaching,” an amalgam of “geo” &+ THE BOHEMIAN

644: ;>E4 Smart phones are lousy with terrific GPS applications and have helped the geocaching game explode. meaning â&#x20AC;&#x153;earth,â&#x20AC;? reflecting the game as a global activity, and â&#x20AC;&#x153;cache,â&#x20AC;? the French word meaning â&#x20AC;&#x153;a hiding place used for storageâ&#x20AC;? (and the computer term for storing information).

With the advent of Groundspeak, players started hiding more and more caches, and the number of them grew quickly around the world. Seven years later, there are some 842,433 caches in the world, a number that grows daily.

Each geocache has a different name (â&#x20AC;&#x153;Strolling for Trolls,â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Lizards with Light Sabers,â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Pigs and Goats and Elephants . . .

Oh My!â&#x20AC;?), a different story behind it and a different treasure inside, which makes it unique and surprising to find.

According to the populist rules outlined on Groundspeak, at bare minimum there must be a container and a logbook where geocachers can log their finds and post their experience on the website. Items vary with each cache, from small toys to postcards to golf balls. If you decide to take treasure as a souvenir, you must leave something else in its place (unless otherwise specified for a particular cache). And finally, you must log your name in the logbook and share your find on Groundspeak so others can see when it was last found.

We read about â&#x20AC;&#x153;Alien Nights,â&#x20AC;? the geocache we are after, on Groundspeak before heading out. It is a mystery cache, meaning that the cache involves a puzzle we need to solve before we can find the treasure, in this instance a â&#x20AC;&#x153;tipâ&#x20AC;? from Professor Simon Roswell of the SETI Institute in Washington, D.C., who claims to have uncovered evidence of an alien presence along the foot trails of Howarth Park. All we know is that we have to wait until dark to find it so we can use

our alien tracking devices (flashlights) to find reflective materialâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;alien blood.

The woods are dark but the sky is clear.

No sign of the aliens. We continue walking.

The Cubemaster slows down and shines his flashlight on the ground. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Hey, check this out.â&#x20AC;? Tinsel. Alien blood? A yard ahead, more tinsel hangs from a branch. Another piece is shadowed under a rock. Excitedly, we keep moving forward. However, the tinsel seems to have stopped. We look everywhere, but no sign of more tinsel or the cache. We backtrack so as not to get discouraged. Cube rechecks the GPS. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Hmmm, we are at the right spot,â&#x20AC;? he says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It says here that someone found the cache a week ago.â&#x20AC;?

Mark â&#x20AC;&#x153;Psychofishâ&#x20AC;? Cook, 51, an avid geocacher, remembers setting flowers down on his motherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s burial plot in September 2005 when he noticed a small ammo box. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is weird,â&#x20AC;? he thought. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Maybe some hunter put it here.â&#x20AC;? He curiously opened the box; inside were toys, a logbook and a piece of paper with the Groundspeak website and an explanation of the game on it. Cook, who was always interested in maps and had always wanted a GPS, now had the excuse to get one.

Four years later, he has found approximately 13,000 caches all over California, some in New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Kansas. He has also hidden 87 of his own. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I love the hunt and the outdoors,â&#x20AC;?

Cook says. The sport brings people together and gets them outside and moving. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I enjoy going out with my brother and my son, Ben, people I enjoy being with,â&#x20AC;? he explains.

Caches are everywhere, a truth that changes the perception of the environment.

The game has â&#x20AC;&#x153;made me more observant,â&#x20AC;?

Cook says, “I have to notice things the average person doesn’t see. I have to notice things a little bit more and it makes me more aware.”

The tinsel leads nowhere. “Let’s see what other caches are around here and maybe we will find the alien blood as we look for some others,” I suggest. The Cube checks his GPS, which is loaded with cache locations. “Frog Hideaway” and “Rocky Road” are nearby.

With new coordinates, we wander a winding, tree-canopied path. We are looking for “Rocky Road.”“Ding, ding,” chimes the GPS. We are at the spot. To the right of where we are standing is a group of large rocks, which we all start scurrying over and climbing. We turn over the ones we can lift and carefully look under, around and in between the ones we cannot. This has to be the right spot.

I crouch down on the ground; it is dark.

I feel under the rocks with my hand. There is a small opening between where the stone and the dusty ground meet. I feel dirt on my fingertips, small pebbles, then something bigger. “Hey, quick! I need a flashlight!”

Kubo runs over, rips off his headlamp and hands it to me. Everyone gathers around. I shine the light where my hand was. Under the stone is a small tube that is covered in camouflage duct tape. Eagerly, I open it.

Inside is a yellow and black toy Datsun, a fake tattoo, a wobbly rubber skeleton, a button and a small address book used as the log book. Treasure!

Exhilarated by our find, we are ready to search for a new one. The Cubemaster plugs in the coordinates for “Frog Hideaway.”

To get there, we head up a steep hill. John moves branches out of the way so we can easily pass by them.

“Ding, ding.” There is a clearing to the left and another grouping of rocks. These rocks are blanketed in moss, dried and damp leaves. If I were a frog, I would hide here. We scatter and start searching. About five minutes of focused searching pass when Marshall yells, “I found it!” We all hurry over to where he is standing.

From between two large rocks and under forest debris, he pulls a large plastic tub. He unscrews the green cap. Inside, there are four pens, a logbook, a thank you card, a toy cartoon chicken, a small black-and-white stuffed cat and a pog, among other items. We carefully write in the logbook and put the cache back, making sure it is exactly as we found it.

It is late, and there are still no signs of alien blood or of a crashed spaceship, but we’re happy about the treasure we did find. The aliens will have to wait for another night. As we leave the park, we take a moment to regroup. The woods are mysterious and I feel humbled by the greatness and possibility of them. A few minutes pass and we stand still in quiet knowing: the truth is out there.

The Great Bohemian GPS Stash Hunt At the end of this story and embedded in crunchy nuggets throughout this Arcadia issue, you’ll find the curious algorithmic notations of the geocacher. That’s because this treasure-hunting game is just too good not to play, so we’ve placed 10 of our own caches around the tri-county area coordinated to the stories in this issue, themed as it is around the idea of outer limits and hidden pleasures. Those stories whose latitude and longitude notations have “hints” appended to them hint of unsurpassed riches (OK, of miniature card decks or empty Pez dispensers), meaning that they’re actual geocaches.

Intrepid (read: insane) associate editor Gabe Meline, with the gleeful help of geocache nerd and Boho intern Jackie Johansen, has organized and hidden this metaphoric gold. The rest of us just raided our closets for tchotchkes and provided empty yogurt containers to house the stuff.

As with “real” geocaches, ours provide a logbook and pen for you to note your find. We also encourage you to go online and crow about your discoveries at our Facebook page, its address being too long and ugly and messy to note here (do the usual search). If social networking is just too aught-nine for you, drop us an old-fashioned email at letters@ bohemian.com or squawk of victory on the BohoBlog (www.bohemian. com/bohoblog). We trust that you’ll leave the cherished objects, mostly garage sale rejects, where we placed them for the next hunter to find far into the shaded millennia—or however long used yogurt containers last in the wild.

Like cleansing Dungeons and Dragons of all of its jittery Mountain Dew connotations and trotting it outside, this was pure geeky fun. We hope that you’re inspired to get out and play along as you read along.

Gravity Hill Had your fill of brutal reality, cold rationality and bail-out-the-bastards realpolitik? Sonoma Mountainâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Gravity Hill puts reality on pause by offering the stressed and befuddled an Alice-like wonderland adventure. But whereas Alice had her up-and-down size issues, Gravity Hill proves up is always down and, likewise, down goes only up, up, up.

Staring bottomward from atop Gravity Hill, nothing about this lonely stretch of Lichau Road provokes more than a mere shrug. But the eyes can lie in Wine Country Wonderland. From the easily observed lowest point below, set the carâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s transmission in neutral. Suddenly, weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re kids again, locked in awe and wonderment as the car silently, magically, with no locomotive power, rolls up the hill ahead.

Conversely, positioned heading down at the slopeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s nadir, the damn Flivver backs itself up to the heavens.

Gravity hills (also known as magnetic hills) are infrequently found. The more creative and conspiratorial of our ilk variously attribute these anomalies to spirit world leakage, to overlapping and perhaps competing dimensions, to Matryoshka-doll universes opening into one another, to alien interference or to extraordinary mineral, metal or stone deposits causing magnetic fields to go zotz, thereby convincing gravity to refute its normally well-behaved self. That said, rationalists, the starch-collared bores they tend to be, claim gravity hills are, to a one, simply optical illusions.

What do golfers, the clapper rail and kayakers have in common? All benefit from the beautiful surroundings of John F. McInnis County Park on the edge of Marin Countyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s San Pablo Bay. Interlacing natural wetlands with a pristinely landscaped golf course and lush green soccer and softball fields, the park exemplifies the intelligently planned use of recycled water. Just a mile east of busy Highway 101, hikers, fishermen and sports buffs enjoy the diverse amenities the park offers. At the entrance, the road diverges: left to the golf course, restaurant, softball field and batting cages, dog park and tennis courts, or right to the soccer fields and trails that meander out to the bay.

The past Fourth of July found walkers inhaling the scent of sage as they left the manicured sports fields behind and headed out on a dusty trail alongside the cat-tailed banks of Gallinas Creek. Stopping to see what a couple of anglers were casting for, they discovered that tasty striped bass can be had for the price of a California fishing license and a bay and delta fishing licenseâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;except on this national holiday and Memorial Day, when the license regulation is waived.

A couple of canoes paddled by to the happy strains of band music wafting out over the water from the Marin County Fair, and the sparkle of the Ferris wheel could be seen in the distant west against the blue roof of the Frank Lloyd Wrightâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s courthouse. A fully sloughed snakeskin lay desiccated and forlorn by the edge of the trail, reminding the hikers to take a sip from their water bottles before circling back to civilization and the sizzle of a holiday barbecue.

Hess Collection On approach, Col. Theodore Gierâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s venerable old winery seems to inhale thin wisps of summerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s cool morning fog. The stout, ivy-covered rock pile, built a century ago, has been home to the Hess Collection since 1986. It sits symbiotically affixed to its environs, a reconditioned ruin settled in amid ancient volcanoes, Mayacamas redwoods and terraced Mount Veeder vineyards.

The Hess Collectionâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s modern 13,000square-foot gallery space contains pieces by

over two dozen world-renowned artists.

Work by Francis Bacon, Robert Motherwell and Frank Stella composes some of the collectionâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s earliest pieces. Prominent Asian and African artists complement the Americans and Europeans. Sculpture, video and multimedia installations are included as well. The budget-minded engage these museum-quality pieces free of charge, though a 10-spot tasting in the downstairs tasting room tends to enhance the experience.

Donald Hess began his international art hunt in 1960. Since then, he has built and/ or purchased four wineries, each situated on a different continent and each housing work from his extensive collection.

Hess limits his patronage to 20 living artists whose work especially resonates with him. He regularly purchases each artistâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s pieces, sponsoring their continued efforts until they either attain recognition from the art world writ large or die trying.

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s no wonder that Hess wines are also well regarded. The Hess family has been in the public thirst-satisfying business for centuries.

Hess is the ninth generation heir to a Swiss beer-brewing fortune. He parlayed suds into a second fortune selling mineral water before turning his attention to art and wine.

Annapolis Best known for the lay monastery at Starcross Community, Annapolis also boasts Horicon School (85 pupils in grades Kâ&#x20AC;&#x201C;8), the old historic Horicon School building, a post office, a transfer station for garbage and a winery. Originally established by loggers and apple farmers, most residents now work at the school or in nearby Gualala. Since there are no stores in town and limited shopping in Gualala, Annapolians head to Santa Rosa, almost two hours away via Skaggs Road. The occasional tourist might find this circuitous route back to Highway 101 the most compelling reason to wander through this tiny burg, taking time to stop at the Annapolis Winery, best known for a buttery Chardonnay, or at the Starcross Gift Shop for the gold-medal-winning olive oil produced onsite.

Rae Brodjeski, the post mistress of the Annapolis Post Office for nearly 25 years, cheerfully serves the community of 500 along with her part-time relief and one carrier.

Parker, recently of Napa, moved here because her fiancĂŠ got a job at the Horicon School.

When asked what she thought was the most interesting thing about Annapolis, Parker laughed. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Well, we only have a post office, a school and a dump, so I would say the post office is the most interesting thing.â&#x20AC;?

Berryessa Bound With no vacationers, Lake Berryessa is quiet, still—and perfect

W

ay up north in Napa County, the Corners is a combination general-store-restaurant-bar at the intersection of highways 121 and 128. There are a few trucks in the parking lot owned by bargoers, but otherwise the place is desolate, including the nearby church. My presence is an anomaly here at the gateway to Lake Berryessa, and when I pull out some money to pay for a soda at the general store, the bleach-blonde behind the counter asks, “You mean you’re not going to complain about how expensive it is? Most people do.”

Across the street, there’s a huge sign protesting the Bureau of Reclamation, which would appear to be responsible for this being the middle of vacation season and there being no vacationers in sight. This is the second summer that most of the seven resorts around Lake Berryessa have been shuttered. Hell, I think, that’s great for me. No huge boat trailers inching slowly around the winding narrow roads. No Bermudashort-wearing yahoos glugging Corona and blabbing about real estate. No big-city families in their SUVs full of inflatable dinosaurs and bottled-up dysfunction.

Yes, there may be no finer time to visit Lake Berryessa than right now, when it’s just the locals. And man, are the locals lonely.

Up the road, a park ranger pulls up as I’m taking a photo of a decrepit sign at the fenced-in Spanish Flat Resort. I tell him I’m just taking a picture, but he’s not stopping to bust me. “Uh, you got any questions, maybe?” he asks, and I realize he’s just looking for someone to talk to out here on the desolate road.

I ask him about the resort closures, and he says they should all be up and running sometime next year. Making conversation, I remember a tip I’d heard, and ask if he’s heard of a bar that sells world-famous egg rolls. “Oh, sure, that’s Turtle Rock,” he says. “Big blue building, end of this road.”

I wonder what’s so special about the egg rolls, but the ranger’s never tried them. “The bar’s not that bad, though,” he says. “Lemme put it this way: I’ve

20

definitely had a few drinks there.”

Turtle Rock is indeed bright blue and at the end of the road, with a Port-a-Potty outside and a neon sign in the window, next to the Budweiser and Coors signs, promising the rumored egg rolls. A couple of grizzled guys say “Hi” as I walk through the windowless door and into a goldmine of local Lake Berryessa life. Part grill, part general store but mostly a bar, Turtle Rock is also a meeting place for locals, where everyone who walks up to the bar gets a first-name greeting. A few minutes after I sit down, an old man opens the door to a unison “Heya, Ralph” from the other customers, walks behind the bar, cracks a beer, pours it himself and unnecessarily tells the bartender to put it on one of his two tabs.

The egg rolls arrive without a fork, a knife or even on a plate. The bartender wraps ’em in a napkin and plops ’em on the bar. “You want sauce?” she asks, and proffers two jugs of Sriracha. These are the world-famous egg rolls, and brother, they’re delicious.

As I sit and get my fingers greasy, I ask the bartender, why egg rolls? She points to a large portrait behind the bar of Peter Ping Kong Leung, who often made food for his bar’s patrons. One day about 20 years ago, he decided to roll some egg rolls at the bar, they were a huge hit, and the rest is history. Lueng died in 2003, but his egg rolls—each just $2.25 and about the size of a small burrito—remain.

Underneath the thousands of dollar bills stapled to the ceiling and walls, bar talk turns to the ongoing subject of the Bureau of Reclamation and how they completely bungled a deal with the Pensus Group in Arizona which allowed the resorts to close. I get an earful of local stories, but the bartender doesn’t want her name in the paper. “It’s a friggin’ mess,” she says, while fingering a worm out of a bait container. “Just write, ‘It’s a friggin’ mess, but it’s beautiful here, and there are great businesses that need your support.’”

The front page of the local 12-page paper contains the tongue-in-cheek headline “Lake Berryessa Region Declares Independence; Forms Republic of Napalachia,” and with all of the resort closures, it might as well do just that. It’s like a different country up here already, and certainly far removed from the wine-

THE BOHEMIAN

country-paradise image touted by Napa County tourism officials.

Case in point is Spanish Flat Village, north of Turtle Rock on Knoxville Road.

I pull into the vast parking lot, containing roughly a hundred parking spaces. Only two are occupied—one by the owner of the Spanish Flat Country Store, the other by the owner of the nearby Italian restaurant, Cucina Italiana.

The rest emit the hot, hazy mirage of abandonment.

At the front counter of the store, a woman bends over a brick of popsicles that have frozen together, chopping away with a butter knife, trying to separate them.

Along with the usual general-store items, there’s a deli, movie rentals, new and used camping equipment and candy bars kept cool in a small fridge. I grab a Snickers and let the woman, furiously working on the popsicles, know that I’m ready to check out.

She takes my dollar, throws it on top of a pile of money on the countertop, fishes out a nickel and hands it to me—cash register be damned. “What brings you up here?” she asks.

“Oh, I’m just intentionally taking wrong turns, trying to get lost,” I say.

“This is a good place to do that,” she says, ominously. I feel like I’m in some sort of David Lynch movie. “What happens if I keep driving on this road?” I ask.

“You hit Knoxville.”

“What’s there? Is it a city?”

“It’s nothing. A good place to go and get in trouble. No one around for miles.”

Knoxville, she elaborates, is a rural

area good for off-roading and hunting on the way to Lake County. Lots of ATVs, motorcycles, beer and guns. There are barely even any campsites there, but that doesn’t stop people from disappearing for days. I tell her I’ll probably head back the way I came.

She nods and gets back to her popsicles.

“That’s what I’d do if I were you,” she says.

Pulling out of the parking lot, I drive by the old Spanish Flat Inn, now closed.

A neon martini light sits atop the front entrance as a memento of booze-fueled nights of camaraderie amid simpler times, and like the rest of Lake Berryessa, it waits for visitors. In the meantime, it stands as a beacon to the diehards, truly traveling to the outer limits.

Cavallo Point Cavallo Point sits just below the northern entrance of the Golden Gate Bridge in historic Fort Baker. With arguably the best view of the bridge, Cavallo Point offers lodging, fine dining, a world-class spa, yoga classes, culinary lessons, art exhibits, access to amazing trails and much more for those looking for a vacation or even a day trip.

On a recent tour, bellman and valet Stuart O’Connor happily showed off the historic lodges, the duplexes originally fit for two officers and their families. These properties have been restored to about 90 percent of their original condition. The lodges still hold the same flooring, glass windows and seating as they did back when they were built between 1902 and 1912. The original structure remains to complete the antique setting, taking guests back to another time and place using LEED-certified materials.

At Cavallo Point’s restaurant, Murray Circle, Michelin one-star executive chef Joseph Humphrey oversees an assortment of American and French cuisine.

Day-tripping at its finest!

Plantation The best way to discover Plantation is if you don’t know that it’s there. After driving for hours on a remote, winding road covered in shade, the trees open up and the road dips as a small, bright dale reveals itself.

To the left, rustic barns and farmland; to the right, a beaming white gabled Victorian with a large wrap-around porch and huge front lawn. All of a sudden, the atmosphere feels like Cat on a Hot Tin Roof, replete with an old gas pump and a white wooden fence.

Is this isolated paradise really located in Sonoma County?

“We’re definitely remote,” says Nell Western, who first came to Plantation as a camper in the 1970s and now serves as office manager for the summer camp there. “We don’t get cell reception up here, thankfully.”

Plantation was built in the late 19th century as a 13-room hotel for nearby Fort Ross. At its height, it held a post office and a Druids Hall meeting room, and was a stop on the prominent Wells Fargo Express route. The hotel burned in the 1920s, but many original buildings remain, bordering Salt Point State Park and overlooking the 500-acre land.

Living outdoors, young campers at Plantation learn to grow food, tend to livestock, harvest crops and participate in the classic summer camp final-night variety show. The camp session is intentionally lived entirely without electricity.

“We just have a very back-to-basics philosophy here,” Western explains. “It’s a chance for folks to get away from their computers and games, their cell phones and

their laptops, and just go back to learning to be with people, learning to live with people, learning to actually converse with people. It’s a very equalizing atmosphere up here.”

Western estimates that about 98 percent of Sonoma County residents have no idea Plantation exists, but says most campers love to return, either serving as camp counselors or stopping by for a nostalgic visit on family vacations.

To those just passing through, the camp’s amenities are strictly for the looking.

However, just three miles up the road is Kruse Rhododendron State Preserve, a large forest with five miles of hiking trails which, when the season is right, showcase beautiful clusters of rhododendrons, ferns, myrtle, huckleberry and second-growth redwood.

Rhododendrons being seasonal, May is the best time to visit, and the smaller the car, the better—the dirt roads are skinny and there’s barely any place to make a turnaround—but the short, two-mile loop trail offers a quiet, beautiful hike.

Dogtown The last time I drove past Dogtown, some wag had altered its population sign. Where the two-digit spectacle of 30 was placed, “31” now proudly stood. Someone must have had a baby.

Not too many babies in Dogtown, I bet.

Formerly known as Woodville due to its timber riches—Dogtown, evidently, was always just called Dogtown. Folks there had a lot of dogs; simple as that. Woodville, Dogtown—whatever—once had a steampowered saw mill to help plane down Bolinas’ timber. Nowadays, it has a pottery shop, some epic bends in the road and . . . well . . .

One of the great things about Dogtown is that looking for the thin slivers of information available on it lead one to the Carla Ehat Oral History Program for the Anne T. Kent California Room run by the county library and including transcriptions of loquacious old people remembering their days out in the veritable wilds of west Marin. Interviewed by Ann Kent—her husband’s family established Kentfield and gave Muir Woods to the public—and Carla Ehat from 1974 and past Kent’s death to 1984, some 300 interviews are archived at the Civic Center.

Elders evoke creek names, knolls and sections of the Bolinas Lagoon as familiarly as one remembers a list of cousins. The Briones family held court in Dogtown at one time, given most of the Bolinas area directly from Mexican land grants. Olema once bustled, eventually eclipsed by the mighty metropolis of Pt. Reyes Station two miles to the north.

Tempers seethed. Schools were erected.

Commerce thrived. Trees were felled. Cattle ranched. Young folks married. And indeed, babies were born.

The people at the next table are passing through, on their way down to an ice hockey tournament in Santa Rosa. Another family across the dining room is headed up to Oregon for some whitewater rafting.

The walls are covered with postcards from around the world, singing the praises of this hamburger stand, housed as it is in an old Texaco gas station, just north of Cloverdale. Everyone, it seems, stops in at Hamburger Ranch.

Hamburger Ranch is one of those places that’s achieved world renown while staying down-home. Among posters for the local Lion’s Club poker tournament and old cattle equipment on the wood-paneled walls, a token wine list at each table feels out of place. Here’s what you need to know: screwdrivers and bloody marys are $5, and just beneath those, on the menu, lies the holy grail. “One shot: $1.50.” It’s that kind of place.

For travelers headed to the outer limits of Hopland, Boonville or Point Arena, the roadside stop officially known as Hamburger Ranch and Pasta Farm is an essential gateway visit. But why pasta “farm”?

“Oh, that was the previous owner,” sighs Nancy Dennis, who’s worked at Hamburger Ranch for 18 years. “I don’t know how he came up with that name. I think he was just a cornball with a strange sense of humor.”

However it’s “farmed,” pasta features prominently on the menu, as do plenty of breakfast offerings priced as low as $5.45.

The Ranch’s slow-cooked, wood-fired barbecue (tri-tip, brisket, chicken, ribs) is to die for—the pulled pork alone is cooked for 19 hours—and, naturally, dozens of specialty burgers abound.

Renovated several years ago, the Ranch replaced its formerly cramped bathrooms, expanded its dining room past the old wooden front porch and added a large covered outdoor patio with a vineyard view. The one thing that hasn’t changed, however, is the loyal clientele, who religiously make a pilgrimage for burgers on yearly road-trip vacations. “I had some just this morning!” says Dennis, excitedly.

“They were on their way camping, and they said, ‘This is our annual stop.’”

An inestimable flood of postcards from visitors echo the sentiment (the most far-flung actually came postmarked from Antarctica), but it’s Dennis herself who may be the restaurant’s biggest fan. With Cloverdale diners like the Wheel Cafe and the Redwood Smorgette long gone, Hamburger Ranch is a dying breed, and the quick-on-herfeet waitress says she still has fun being part of a local institution. “I came here on vacation in ’76,” she explains, filling up another basket of fries, “and I’m still on vacation.”

ARCADIA FOOD

Chloes French Cafe Tucked away above the Sutter North Bay Medical Foundation is a Parisian oasis.

Upon walking down a drab white hallway, there is a door left wide open. Through this entrance, there are bustling waiters and waitresses, and outside, the trees hang low, French music plays and a couple sits, wine in hand, chewing on a baguette.

Chloe’s French Cafe dishes up handmade éclairs, tarts, croissants, sandwiches, salads, ratatouille and much more, all made from heirloom French recipes that have been passed down for centuries.

Chloe’s motto is to keep its food “basic and simple, but as French as possible” says chef Renée Pisan. Before coming to Sonoma County, Renée, with her husband, pastry chef Alain Pisan, and his brother, sommelier Marc Pisan, worked at the Pisan family cafe in the South of France.

Eventually, they moved because of Marc’s interest in the wine country. It doesn’t seem far from home. “The weather, everything about this place is like France,” Renée says.

The three originally wanted to start a catering business, which is how they ended up in the unique location. “The building was empty and the kitchen was part of a cafeteria,” Renée says, “so we took it.”

After a year, Sutter asked if they would open up the cafe. Renée describes the cafe as being “casual but French at the same time.

Alain makes all the pastries from scratch, and we try to use as much local ingredients as possible.”

Adjacent to the cafe is a large atrium-style room where Chloe’s holds monthly table d’hôte dinners. “In France,” Renée says, “the Pisan family had a pastry shop, and at the end of the week, shop keepers, friends and family would come and eat at long tables.” Renée takes the original menus from these dinners and recreates the experience for all to attend.

Walking through the doors of Chloe’s French Cafe is like walking through a portal into another world, one rich in tradition, culture—and butter.

Drakes Beach Cafe Sir Francis Drake missed the boat by sailing his legendary Golden Hind into the bay 430 years too early. Had the famed explorer and pirate had the good fortune to arrive in the same waters today, he would have been mighty pleased to find the tiny, welcoming eatery that bears his name. Drakes Beach Cafe nestles on the sands of Point Reyes National Seashore at the westernmost edge of Marin County.

A national treasure, the park entices adventurous hikers, birdwatchers and beachgoers to meander for hours on one of many trails. As hunger gathers with the dusk, follow the road toward the fabled

lighthouse to the park’s only restaurant for a sunset dinner on an isolated beach.

Using the bounty of the county’s organic farms, local cheeses, bakeries, fish and meats, chefs and concessionaires, Ben Angulo and his wife, Jane Kennedy, serve a prix fixe fourcourse dinner that is as fresh as the ocean breeze outside the restaurant door. Two nights a week, 24 happy patrons gather for a pleasurably intimate dining experience, one night accompanied by a pod of dolphins frolicking in the waves breaking just outside the windows.

Olives and artisan bread with DeVero olive oil soon appear on the table, and the wine brought by patrons is poured by the friendly staff (no alcohol is sold onsite).

Three small courses both tease and fulfill hungry diners: grilled octopus straddling arugula, orange wedges and chives, little gem lettuces with toasted pecans, Gouda, strawberries and fennel, and a small ramekin of Tuscan rose eggplant Parmesan.

Perfectly pan-roasted sturgeon spiced with roasted jalapeños, shiitake mushrooms, fresh corn and fried leeks, or a grilled loin lamb chop escorted by fingerling potatoes, caramelized shallots and a hint of mint pesto beguile as main courses, satisfying the carnivores in the room. Desserts (this night, Straus ice cream with strawberries) are extra, but the $2 splurge is a sweet topping to a sublime evening.

Even if Sir Francis Drake had beached here today rather than 1579, he would have needed a cell phone to call ahead, as reservations are an absolute for the nine tables in the room. Don’t miss the boat.

The Russian River Like most Sonoma County locals, I’ve racked up plenty of mileage driving to and from Bodega Bay via the scenic Russian River valley, rolling down the car windows and soaking up some sun while driving a bit too fast on the Bohemian Highway. The funny thing is, short of the saltwater taffy shop, I never stop and eat anywhere along the way.

So in the spirit of taking the road less taken, I became a quaint tourist myself and set out to find the river’s secret culinary spots.

Because it’s undeniably true that breakfast is the most important meal of the day—and let’s be honest, breakfast is good at any hour—the first stop was comfort-food destination Cafe Les Jumelles (20391 Hwy. 116, Monte Rio. 707.865.9500; N 38° 28.019´; W 123° 0.659´.

dusty driveway and squeeze into a gap between two pickup trucks.

The dining room is about as big as a midsized apartment, entirely paneled with shining wood, complete with bar along one wall and patio seating toward the back.

After being seated by a friendly waitress, it was soon clear that most of the customers were regulars, all chatting amiably while stirring sugar into their coffee. Monte Rio is a small nook of a town, and so the cafe naturally has a homey, small-town feel to it; the coat hook in the corner is made from old horseshoes, homemade butterfly paintings adorn the walls, and each table has a small plant growing in a coffee cup.

I brought my teenaged sister, the ultimate judge of pancake and French toast excellence, who promptly ordered a short stack of the house pancakes ($4) and deemed them some of the fluffiest she’d ever had. I opted for the breakfast quesadilla ($9.50), a spin on the breakfast burrito, with eggs, cheese and roasted red peppers all grilled up in a spinach tortilla. (Les Jumelles is most popular for its omelettes, which all run about $10.) Throw in two Arnold Palmers—iced tea paired with freshsqueezed lemonade—and we had found a new favorite spot.

Continuing along 116, and trying to digest breakfast as soon as possible, we came upon everyone’s favorite fringe town, Duncans Mills, population 85. Anywhere worth finding food and drinks will be found on Steelhead Boulevard, the main strip in the middle of town, and so it was that we found ourselves parked in front of the electric blue tavern and restaurant the Blue Heron (25300 Steelhead Blvd., Duncans Mills. 707.865.2484. N 38° 27.192´; W 123° 3.120´).

Recently reopened, the Heron seems to have invigorated itself all over again for

summer, offering live music five days a week, barbecued oysters on the patio on Sundays and deliciously long tavern hours.

We stepped over the friendly—and, at that moment, thoroughly passed out—in-house dog on the way into the cozy dining room, where full windows take up one wall and look out over a small meadow, and were met with an extremely warm staff. (Right away, I noticed the spray of wildflowers on each table, and couldn’t help but wonder which server had to wander around in a field somewhere to gather them.)

Serving up a menu of hearty lunch and dinner selections, the Blue Heron specializes in those guilty pleasures that everyone loves: spicy chicken wings, calamari, crab cakes, burgers—the works.

Lettuce lovers shouldn’t fret, as the salad and pasta menu holds its own. The highest price on the menu stands at $18.95 for a full order of baby back ribs, but everything else falls between $5 and $15.

If the urge to push farther into the wilderness, lose all cell reception and drain that tank of gas won’t let up, it doesn’t get much more far-flung than Jenner. After 20 minutes of driving along curving roads nestled next to towering cliffs in inevitable coastal fog, losing count of the cows we passed in the long stretches of fields, we arrived at Cafe Aquatica (10439 Hwy. 1, Jenner. 707.865.2251. N 38° 26.940´; W 123° 6.8760´).

Next door to a gift shop with plastic seagulls parked all over the porch, Cafe Aquatica appears to be just another weatherbeaten shingled shack on the side of the road. Inside, however, it is a brightly colored and snug coffee, tea and sandwich shop, with a back patio area featuring perhaps one of the best up-close views of the river joining the Pacific in the area. Not only does the charming owner whip all of the '-

Right up the street, River’s End Restaurant & Inn (11048 Hwy. 1, Jenner.

707.865.2484. N 38° 27.060´; W 123° 7.500´) takes a more romantic approach to West County dining. But after taking in the sweeping views, it’s difficult to avoid getting sort of swoony when considering ordering the Champagne and oysters combo for an appetizer. This gem of a foodie spot is definitely on the high-roller end of the scale, with dinner entrées like North American elk paired with a red wine poached pear ($49)— that’s right, elk—and an apple-smoked filet mignon ($36).

Tourist romanticism be damned, River’s End is a prime example of culinary elegance and is worth saving up some money in the mattress for. The next time the need for fresh coastal air and a break from the fast lane hits, slow down on the drive out west. As far as food destinations and quirky nightclubs go, the Russian River holds its own.—C.L.

Two Bird Cafe Set along a side road adjacent to Sir Francis Drake Boulevard between the golf course and the community center, the Two Bird is one of those unexpected pleasures that all are eager to grab as their own. Even though the restaurant has been at the Valley Inn for seeming decades, everyone takes it personally as a unique find. For me, the Two Bird is all about rain and dinner. For most others, the Two Bird is all about brunch and dogs. For me, it’s the jazz combo playing on a five-foot-long bar stage on weekend nights.

For others, it’s lamb chops and eggs. For me, it’s the careful jumble of the dining room, like eating at a professor’s house. For them, it’s the particular crust that the fried potatoes achieve at 11am. For me, it’s the easy friendly service.

For them, the good laugh that bicyclist’s attire provides. For me, the fireplace warming the room. For them, the patio, open to the creek.

For me, steaming soup. For them, the bay laurel smell of the air. For me, the wine. For them, the mimosa. For us, for good.

LoCocoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s I

CUCINA RUSTICA I

Voted Best Italian Restaurant of the North Bay â&#x20AC;&#x201C; BOHEMIAN

LoCocoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s is everything an Italian restaurant should beâ&#x20AC;&#x201C;boisterous, busy, fun, with excellent authentic food of the best quality. Fresh seafood, meats and pasta. Service is friendly and fast.

Try the paprdelle with wild boar sausage and forest mushrooms; or the veal chop valdostana with fontina and prosciutto.

Chicken under a brick is the best anywhere, including Italy.

All desserts homemade. â&#x20AC;&#x153;4 star cannoliâ&#x20AC;? - Jeff Cox, Press Democrat

=824 BC4<B othing seems to perk up a room quite like a splash of summer ďŹ&#x201A;owers, and nothing sucks more than draining the bank account to get them. Thankfully, DragonďŹ&#x201A;y Farm and Floral in Healdsburg has come up with generous solution: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Lazy Sundays,â&#x20AC;? a chance to save their extra ďŹ&#x201A;owers from the compost heap and save yourself a few bucks in the process.

N

Nineteen years ago, the owners of DragonďŹ&#x201A;y ripped out 6.5 acres of grapes, taking their chances on the petal trade, and wound up creating a magnet for bees, butterďŹ&#x201A;ies and brides. They now specialize in weddings, personally harvesting the ďŹ&#x201A;owers for their arrangements.

Just recently, the ďŹ&#x201A;orists decided to create Lazy Sundays, offering their blooming surplus to the public.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;We grow most of our own ďŹ&#x201A;owers, and we always have extras,â&#x20AC;? says owner Bonnie Z. â&#x20AC;&#x153;So at the end of the week, we just started to put them outside the door on Sundays when we werenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t open, for whatever people could pay.â&#x20AC;?

8]VgXjiZg^Z

The folks at DragonďŹ&#x201A;y Farms donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t just deal in ďŹ&#x201A;owers; the farm chickens are out and the eggs are there for the takingâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;just let the staff know, and theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll put some aside.

Fresh ďŹ gs are abundant as well, and Z says anyone looking for a peaceful nap in the shade is invited to pack a picnic, relax in the willow circle on site or set up an easel and paint as they please.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;People seem to really like it,â&#x20AC;? she says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Just the other day, there was a couple having a picnic. There are always people looking around.â&#x20AC;?

New look, new flavors, same relaxed pace

>33B ž=ž B>3B he owners of Napaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Tuscany Restaurant have changed its name and its culinary country to the Border and from Italy to Mexico respectively. First reports are glowing. . . .

We hear tell that celebrity Iron Chef master Masaharu Morimoto is sharpening his knives in preparation to foray into Napa alongside the new Ritz-Carlton, which to him is a mere feeding tank of avid customers. . . . The new Bardessono Hotel in Yountville sports a very non-hotel-like restaurant that names all the sources on the plate, handles a panini as well as an oyster poâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; boy and specializes in ďŹ sh preparations and local good foods. . . . Veggie heaven Ubuntu has pushed into the vacant storefront next door, expanding the dining room as the harvest comes in. . . . Caffe Cicero is no more, with the Curbside Mediterranean Cafe taking its place.

T

On the other side of the Mayacamas, it appears that Lagunitas Brewing Co. has made good on its longstanding threat to simply have that much more fun. Its new Taproom and Beer Sanctuary is now open for beer-lovers, their kids and, sure, even their dogs. Serving Jeromeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Barbecue, the Sanctuary welcomes irreverent supplicants from 3pm to 9pm, Wednesdayâ&#x20AC;&#x201C;Friday, and from 1pm to 7pm, Saturdayâ&#x20AC;&#x201C;Sunday. The wine license is still being worked out according to assistant marketing manager Don Chartier, but sodas are available, as is the full slate of Lagunitas pours. Guest taps from other brewers are on tap for the future, and they currently are offering live music every single day. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s kind of a moving target,â&#x20AC;?

Chartier says when asked about the music calendar. â&#x20AC;&#x153;All I can tell you is that someone will be up there playing.â&#x20AC;? All righty, then! The Sanctuary is in a business park located at 1280 N. McDowell Blvd., Petaluma. 707.769.4495.

Perhaps not exactly at the other end of the spectrum, Cotati prepares for its ďŹ rst annual Vegan and Vegetarian Food Festival, slated for Aug. 1â&#x20AC;&#x201C;2, to coincide with the mass arrival of thousands of members of the Science of the Soul, a sikh temple. Drawn to Petaluma by the annual arrival of their master from India, this entirely vegetarian congregation is bound to get hungry. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s where Masala Jackâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s owner Rupinder Garcha steps in. Estimating that his Cotati store could feed only 500 folks a day, Garcha began canvassing other local food outlets to help sate the ravening crowds. He eventually found 21 purveyors able to set up shop in La Plaza Park, serving food reasonably priced between $6 and $8 to a crowd estimated to be in the thousands. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There will be people here of all ethnicities and backgrounds,â&#x20AC;? Garcha says, â&#x20AC;&#x153;and I wanted them to be able to afford it.â&#x20AC;?

Among those conďŹ rmed are the vegan Seed Restaurant, as well as Fresh China, the El Salvadoran place El Malecon, the Indian food of Karma Bistro, El Colonelâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Mexican food, the Middle Eastern fare of Sahara and even JKâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Buffet Lounge. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a lot of emphasis today on â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;green cuisine,â&#x20AC;&#x2122;â&#x20AC;? Garcha says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;And I thought that we could start something that would bring in a lot of people.â&#x20AC;? In addition to food booths, the festival promises information tables and plenty of live music for all. Saturdayâ&#x20AC;&#x201C;Sunday, Aug. 1â&#x20AC;&#x201C;2, in La Plaza Park, Cotati. 11am to 6pm. Free.

@D6?9 Âś;Âś @=6A

0=010 F8=4B es, the enigmatic name sounds vaguely like an ancient Egyptian god or an enlightened entity from esoteric Buddhismâ&#x20AC;&#x201D; like a jackal-headed bodhisattva smiling upon a tantric underworld. Hey, that would be coolâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;but Anaba is named for the Anabatic wind, a cool breeze that ďŹ&#x201A;ows from the San Pablo Bay and gets hotter as it rises with the Sonoma hills. Anaba is the evocative replacement for Castle Vineyards & Winery, which was acquired by the Sweazey family in 2006.

Y

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a mystery why they packed up and left that hot location just off the Sonoma Plaza. The new joint is also a high-trafďŹ c location, but at the busy intersection of highways 116 and 121, where thousands of motorists daily pit what wits they can muster against the ultimate challenge: a four-way stop. A run-down old farm house has been renovated into a nice, modestly decorated tasting room, although the back of the bar is mirrored and my preference is for a more pleasing view than myself and other winetasters.

Anaba Wines advertise themselves as RhĂ´ne specialists, which is somewhat exciting, but current releases do not include the Grenache and Syrah of Castle days, which lessens the thrill; Anaba also squishes those Burgundian grapes known as Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. The 2007 Coriol Sonoma Valley White ($28) opens with a Viognier-like bouquet of ďŹ&#x201A;owers and a hail of white raisins, but the body is all MarsanneRoussanne, heavy and languid, thick with apricot nectar and raisins; while slightly syrupy in body, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not actually sweet.

Hinting at raspberries and white pepper, the 2006 Coriol Sonoma Valley Red ($28) is more winning for its warming, soft palate than for big fruit besides ephemeral hickory-smoked dried apples and raspberries. The complex, warm earthiness makes sense: the RhĂ´ne varietal grapes come from a hot pocket in southern Sonoma Valley and a cool stretch at the north. Precious few cases of the 2008 Sonoma RosĂŠ ($18) were made, but a taste of fresh watermelon, raspberry and Greek yogurt can be arranged if one asks extra nicelike.

With the wind in my heart and the wine in my head, I retraced my steps to the gravel parking lot out back, and stopped short. There it was, the ďŹ ne southern Sonoma view of verdant vineyards climbing the skirts of blond-domed hills, framed by palm trees swaying in the anabatic wind. And it was good.

Bargain bottle alert: Currently thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s an absolute ďŹ re sale on the remaining Castle wines. For information go to www.castlevineyards.com.

Anaba Wines, 60 Bonneau Road (at Arnold Drive), Sonoma. Open daily, 10:30am to 5pm. Tasting fee $10.

30HB >5 F8=4 ?82=82B hereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s no shortage of winery picnic grounds scattered throughout the North Bay. Here are ďŹ ve choice spots matched with nearby picnic supply stops.

T

Bennett Valley Known for its lavender as well as its wine, Matanzas Creek Winery (6097 Bennett Valley Road, Santa Rosa. 707.528.6464) is go-to perfect for a dog-day afternoon picnic. Tucked into a hillside oak grove just above the winery, picnickers lay out their spreads on stout wooden tables. Running water, a Bennett Valley vista and lots of cool, cool shade come comped with each table.

Drive around Sonoma Mountain to the Glen Ellen Village Market (13751 Arnold Drive, Glen Ellen. 707.996.6728) for a toothsome selection of both ready-made and you-makeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;em gourmet items.

Dry Creek Were there a picnicking paean for Preston of Dry Creek (9282 West Dry Creek Road, Healdsburg.

707.433.3372. N 38° 39.287â&#x20AC;&#x2122; W 122° 55.338â&#x20AC;&#x2122; Boho Cache Hint: Watch your weight), it would have Mother Earth fronting the Dead in a lullaby to pie-eyed dreamers. The winery prohibits parties over eight, meaning napping cats (a bakerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s dozen!) oft outnumber people. And speaking of bakers, Lou Preston is one doughboy supreme. Rip off hunks of Louâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fresh crusty round loaf and turn chewy bites into earthly perfection by sopping up puddles of estate EVOO. Uncork a bottle of chilled Preston Vin Gris, Grenache Blanc or Madam Preston. Add a pint of briny winery-cured Mediterranean olives. Bring food, if you mustâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;the Dry Creek General Store (3495 Dry Creek Road, Healdsburg.

707.433.4171) would do nicelyâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;but indulging in Prestonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s own picked-daily organic veggies, for sale on the tasting room porch, is practically de rigueur. Afterwards, how â&#x20AC;&#x2122;bout a game of bocce ball and a slow romantic stroll through the gardens?

Russian River The Lynmar Winery (3909 Frei Road, Sebastopol. 707.829.3374) is a lifestyle stop for those whose picnic ideal is a $65 tour followed by a chef-prepared sit-down. Whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s for lunch? Try mixed greens, grilled Portobello mushrooms and Laura Chenel goat cheese drizzled with a citrus and white trufďŹ&#x201A;e oil dressing followed by Pinot-braised local lamb, steamed Austrian potatoes and Nantes carrots. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s all served up with bountiful Russian River Chards and Pinots.

Do-it-your-selfers can tote along store-bought ďŹ xinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s from Andyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Produce (1691 Gravenstein Hwy., Sebastopol.

707.823.8661). Lynmar has a redwood picnic grove, showcasing mountain, vineyard and wetland views.

Pt. Reyes Station It can be a real bad sign to see six-packs of beer prominently displayed on the shelves of a winery tasting room. Twin American mini-ďŹ&#x201A;ags and assorted brica-brac pound home the point that this here ainâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t Sonoma, and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s as close to a Napa tasting room as a garden hose is to the Roman Baths. Still, thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s something endearingly real about Marin Countyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Point Reyes Winery (12700 Hwy. 1. Fridayâ&#x20AC;&#x201C;Monday. 800.516.1011). The Doughty family has been serving their wines for 70 odd years, and for ďŹ ve bucks theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll pour ďŹ ve wines and give up their patio for a picnic. And, hey, thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s even a koi pond! Food-wise, stop at Tomales Bay Foodsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; gourmet barn (80 Fourth St., Point Reyes Station. 415.663.9335) for cheese and more.

Napa Valley A hillside beauty, Rutherford Hill Winery (200 Rutherford Hill Road, Rutherford. 707.963.1871) offers shaded tables scattered throughout its olive grove picnic grounds. The Napa Valley spreads out below. A tasting room and a wine cave lie mere yards away. What moreâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s needed? Lunch, of course! Pick up ďŹ ne freshly prepared food from Sunshine Food Market (1115 Main St., St Helena. 707. 963.7070).

F8=4. 8= <0A8=. he Point Reyes area is a foodie mecca, and when weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re out there, we meet people and talk to them,â&#x20AC;? says vintner Jonathan Pey. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Obviously there are a lot of whale and bird watchers, but increasingly, there are people out there to eat, too.â&#x20AC;? What there arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;tâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;in all of Marin, never mind the small jut of Point Reyesâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;are many places to drink, at least when it comes to winetasting.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;T

The Point Reyes Vineyards is a sweet family abode specializing in sparkling; the Ross Valley Winery sources grapes from Lodi and other areas outside of the North Bay and bottles them here. And, um, thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s it. Until now, with the storied Olema Inn providing the roost for the PeyMarin Vineyards.

Opened earlier this month, the tasting room is actually a ďŹ&#x201A;ight set up on the innâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s antique wooden bar, offering four Pey-Marin winesâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;Reisling, Pinot, Merlot and Syrahâ&#x20AC;&#x201D; for a nominal fee. Only the grapes for the Syrah are grown outside of Marin County; it thrives in Sonoma County. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We make bright, balanced wines that taste like grapes,â&#x20AC;? Pey says with a chuckle. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t just taste like we can afford expensive barrels.â&#x20AC;? The Pey-Marin Tasting Room is open daily from noon to 4pm at the Olema Inn, 1000 Sir Francis Drake Blvd., Olema. $12 fee. 415.663.9559. . . .

In (loosely) related news, iconoclast, bassist and Primus singer Les Claypool has decided to expand his empire beyond mere stadium shows and marvelously strange ďŹ lms in order to hit the bottle with his new Claypool Cellars, a winery whose current motto is â&#x20AC;&#x153;Fancy booze for semi-fancy people.â&#x20AC;? Having already sold out the ďŹ rst run, the Pink Platypus (a Russian River Pinot Rose), he now offers his boutique 2007 Russian River Pinot Noir Purple Pachyderm. Those who purchase more than two cases at a time get the de rigueur discount, a bottle signed

by Claypool and, sure, a T-shirt. Some fun dies hard.

Wholesale and retail sales available. Visit www.claypoolcellars.com for more info. . . .

Raising funds for Napa Valley Jewish organizations has a nicely grape-drenched air about it, as the ďŹ rst Jewish Vintners Wine Trail launches July 26 with special treats at a number of area spots including Bighorn, Expression, Frank Family, Hall, Honig, Juddâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Hill and others not normally open to the public. Spend the day doing that comestible thing and then end it with more comestibles as Juddâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Hill hosts an alfresco dinner at the end of it all on Sunday, July 26. 1pm to 6:30pm. $75 drinker; $35, designated. For info, go to www.jewishvintners.org and follow the links.

La Diva RenĂŠe

Callinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Out

Whether theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re aware of it or not, even nonâ&#x20AC;&#x201C;classical music fans know about RenĂŠe Fleming. Ever the peopleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s soprano, sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been on Sesame Street, was featured in The Lord of the Rings, made albums with Joe Jackson and Brad Mehldau, and sang at the Lincoln Memorial Inaugural Celebration earlier this year. Classical music fans, of course, know her for her silvery, easy operatic voice, which she brings this week to Napaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Festival del Sole. Fleming was forced to cancel her appearance in Napa three years ago due to lastminute sickness, an unfortunate situation with one silver lining: this year sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be singing in the outdoor courtyard at Castello di Amarosa.

The castleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Old World atmosphere is as calming as it is intimate (at last yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s festival, Joshua Bell casually mingled with fans among the masonry), and should be the perfect place to hear one of the finest voices in the world on Thursday, July 23, at Castello di Amarosa.

4045 N. St. Helena Hwy., Calistoga. 6:30pm. $125. 888.337.6272.

Nothing says â&#x20AC;&#x153;community radioâ&#x20AC;? quite like KWMR, Marin Countyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s only radio station, and nothing helps KWMR quite like the annual Far West Fest.

Held in the â&#x20AC;&#x153;Love Fieldâ&#x20AC;? just outside Point Reyes Station, the festival in years past has raised money with appearances by Camper Van Beethoven, Vinyl and Poor Manâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Whiskey. This year things get especially funky with Bay Area legend Lyrics Born tearing up the stage with songs from his latest joint, Everywhere at Once. Once blazing up nightclubs as part of the hip-hop duo Latyrx, Lyrics Born underwent a reinvention as a soul singer around the turn of the century and has since strode fullbore into a syncopated blend of gravel, swagger and spit. Also on the lineup is established songwriter Sean Hayes, whose softer tones should provide a calm before Lyrics Bornâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s storm, as well as Albino, Red Meat, the Green String Farm Band and others.

Food, drink and circus acts round out a lovely way to spend an afternoon in West Marin on Saturday, July 25, at Love Field. 11171 Sir Francis Drake Blvd., Point Reyes Station. 11amâ&#x20AC;&#x201C;7:30pm. $10â&#x20AC;&#x201C;$30.

Watching Watson

No ghetto blaster in 1986 was complete without three breakdance staples: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Jam on Itâ&#x20AC;?

by Newcleus, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Roxanne Roxanneâ&#x20AC;? by UTFO and â&#x20AC;&#x153;Rumorsâ&#x20AC;? by Timex Social Club. Led by the exasperated narration of the groupâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s gossip-addled singer, Michael Marshall, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Rumorsâ&#x20AC;? was the only one out of the three to f ly up the Billboard charts and become a smash hit across the Atlantic. Marshall appears as part of the At All Costs record release show this weekend, which is sure to be a hot time as the Santa Rosa groupâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s newest album, Delusions of Grandeur, is feted at an all-night party. Special guest Rappinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; 4-Tay, who dominated ghetto blasters in 1994 with â&#x20AC;&#x153;Playaz Club,â&#x20AC;? will be on the mic, as well as Myra, whose emancipation from her former squeaky-clean Disney girl image has resulted in some relieving electropop from the 22year-old, locally based Latina singer. It gets crackinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; on Thursday, July 23, at the Last Day Saloon. 120 Fifth St., Santa Rosa. 9pm. $10.

We all watched it, and we all felt our hearts sink like rocks. Tom Watsonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s missed putt on 18 at the British Open ended a weekend of improbable hopes and unbelievable excitement, as the 59-year-old golfer maintained a constant lead throughout a weekend that seemed too good to be true. Suddenly, it was pre-Tiger golf, with none of the club-swatting or fist-pumping. Golf as it was played 30 years ago. You know, Watsonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s game. Steady, level-headed and gracious even into the brutal unraveling playoff, Watson kept his cool while losing ground out in the rough. Was he thinking about how close heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d been to being the oldest golfer to win a Major? Was he thinking, possibly, about being young again, the way that everyone hopelessly glued to the tournament thought about having one more shot at greatness?

Either way, he gave us a hell of a ride. So hereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s to Tom Watson. Be sure to raise a glass to him when jazz bassist Justin Hellman performs above the fairways on Thursday, July 23, at the Bluewater Bistro. Links at Bodega Harbour Golf Course, 21301 Heron Drive, Bodega Bay. 707.875.3519.

18C278=½ The Donnas have lasted five times as long as the Runaways.

CTT]PVT Ad[Tb Is there life for the Donnas after 30?

By Leilani Clark

B

ince their rambunctious beginnings as the only all-girl band in a sea of testosterone at a Palo Alto middle school, skintight jeans, partying and cruising for boys have been regular song fodder for punk-turned-rock-darlings the Donnas. So whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a party band to do when three out of four members hit the big three-o, and the days of youth start to slip away? In the case of the Donnas, the solution is to put out a greatest hits album, one that culls from their 16-year span of albums on Lookout! Records, Atlantic and their own Purple Feather label.

The Donnas Greatest Hits, Vol. 16 contains a mix of new songs and B-sides from their self-released 2007 album Bitchin.â&#x20AC;&#x2122; The band also decided to re-record five tracks from their 1998â&#x20AC;&#x201C;2001 Lookout! catalogue, and have included original recordings that didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t make it on to their first release. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We wanted to make them sound better.

Those old versions we recorded in someoneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s living room and at Mail Boxes Etc.,â&#x20AC;? says bassist Maya Ford, on the phone from her home in Los Angeles. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We recorded them really fast, and theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re really crappy sounding.

We wanted the songs to sound like how they sound live now. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Some of them we hadnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t played in forever, like â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;High School Yum Yum,â&#x20AC;&#x2122;â&#x20AC;? Ford continues, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Trying to record them, I was like, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Aah, this is so fast! My hand hurts! I canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t play it.â&#x20AC;&#x2122; But then I would do it in two takes and it was fine. I was worried about nothing.â&#x20AC;?

The Donnas are remarkable for many reasons, including their longevity as a cohesive unit. Formed in 1993 when the members were just 13 years old, the Donnas have outlasted other groups like Bikini Kill, Sleater-Kinney and L7 that rose to minor fame during in the â&#x20AC;&#x2122;90s.

Ford claims that the key to their success revolves around the closeness of the band members. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re really good friends. Since we started when we were so young, we got to live with our parents for a while and not have to worry about paying rent,â&#x20AC;? says Ford. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know, we just somehow got away with it. We never made tons and tons of money, but we keep going and it works.â&#x20AC;?

In the beginning, the Donnasâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; brand of brash, fast-paced, three-chord songs about hating high school and liking boys was reminiscent of a pubescent Ramones, but after graduating from high school, they embraced an increasingly glam/hard rock sound. While this jump into the cock-rock arena inhabited by heroes Judas Priest and MĂśtley CrĂźe (they whip out a faithful cover of â&#x20AC;&#x153;Too Fast for Loveâ&#x20AC;? on occasion) has been criticized by some, the Donnas inspire a particularly rabid brand of fan, aka â&#x20AC;&#x153;Donnaholics,â&#x20AC;? turning live shows into an sweat-drenched, old-fashioned rock and roll party. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They are very enthusiastic. They come from all over the place. We had a fan club show in the desert, outside of Palm Springs, and people came from Russia, Australia, Englandâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;like, everywhere,â&#x20AC;? Ford says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It feels really crazy, when everyone wants your autograph and gives you presents. You kind of donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t believe itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s happening,â&#x20AC;? she continues. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Some people get really emotional or shy and nervous, and you kind of feel for them, because you remember when you met your favorite band and how they treated you. So you wanna, like, try and be nice to them. You know, you can shake my hand and we can talk for a second. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m not a monster.â&#x20AC;?

Highlights of being a Donna include the chance to head-butt Ray Liotta after playing Saturday Night Live and touring Australia as part of the Big Day Out, an experience so wild that Ford got tattooed in commemoration. While the band hits the Mystic Theatre as the headliner on July 23, they are excited about a set of late summer tour dates opening for â&#x20AC;&#x2122;80s legends Pat Benatar and Blondie. Does Ford hope the Donnas will continue to burn up the stage after hitting 50, like their iconic tour mate Debbie Harry? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Why not?â&#x20AC;? she shrugs. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s nothing you can do that is like this, so I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t see why we wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be.â&#x20AC;?

The Donnas play Thursday, July 23, at the Mystic Theatre. 23 Petaluma Blvd. N., Petaluma. 8pm. $20. 707.765.2121.

Celebrating 5 years of Schaef-Abel Productions hosting concerts at Studio E!

NVWC packs a laudable literary punch ccording to Obamaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s inaugural poet Elizabeth Alexander, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Poetry is what you find in the dirt in the corner, overhear on the bus, God in the details.â&#x20AC;?

It also happens to be something you can find later this month at the 29th annual Napa Valley Writersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Conference, where Alexander (above) will be on faculty.

In the spirit of Alexanderâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s democratic and pluralistic verseâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;her inauguration poem â&#x20AC;&#x153;Praise Song for the Dayâ&#x20AC;? celebrated everyone from sock darners to lettuce pickersâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;the conference invites the community to attend its facultyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s lectures and readings. That faculty, too, could be plucked from the very greatest of American, Whitmanesque verse. Not only does it include the chosen poet of the first African-American president, the faculty also consists of a Chinese-British-American novelist, a North Bay Buddhist modernist and a cyberpunk author giving a lecture called â&#x20AC;&#x153;Urban Legends, Pornography and Literary Fiction.â&#x20AC;?

They are also quite the praiseworthy bunch. Peter Ho Davies, the Chinese-British-American novelist of 2007â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Welsh Girl, is the recipient of Guggenheim fellowships, an O. Henry Award and was named in the journal Granta as one of the â&#x20AC;&#x153;Best of Young British Novelists.â&#x20AC;? The North Bay Buddhist modernist Jane Hirschfield and author of six collections of poetry has been lauded by the likes of the Guggenheim and Rockefeller Foundation as well as the Academy of American poets. Robert Boswell, the â&#x20AC;&#x153;Urban Legends, Pornography and Literary Fictionâ&#x20AC;? guy, has published seven novels and a prize-winning play called Tongues while heaping up two NEA fellowships and numerous other prizes in fiction. Also at the conference this year are poets Carl Dennis and David St. John, as well as novelists Antonya Nelson and ZZ Packer, whose accolades and honors are also really impressiveâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;trust us.

Conference director Ann Evans hopes that the high profile of some of this yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s faculty will attract an even more diverse crowd as almost every high school and college student in the area saw Alexander read on Inauguration Day; that may draw them. Also worthy of praise: with student id, all events are free.

The Napa Valley Writersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Conference picks up the pen July 26â&#x20AC;&#x201C;July 30. Carl Dennis and ZZ Packer read on Sunday, July 26, at the Upper Valley Campus of Napa Valley College. 1088 College Ave, St. Helena. 7:30pm.

Other events at Rubicon Estate, Napa Valley Opera House, and Robert Mondavi Winery. Freeâ&#x20AC;&#x201C;$30. 707.967.2900, ext. 1611. www.napawritersconf.org/events.

Monte Rio Variety Show an annual mystery revealed ne of the guaranteed delights of the Monte Rio Variety Show is that the audience never knows whoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going to show up. About 15 years ago, the big star was Merv Griffin. Most astonishing of all, he killed. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I was so surprised,â&#x20AC;? remembers variety show co-chair Michele McDonell. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He did a song and dance routine that included contemporary songs and it just,â&#x20AC;? she laughs again at the memory, â&#x20AC;&#x153;blew me away. I mean, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m 50!â&#x20AC;? Yeah, Merv was who our grandmas used to watch, right? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Exactly!â&#x20AC;? she affirms, â&#x20AC;&#x153;but he was fantastic.â&#x20AC;?

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a fair bet that Merv wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be at the 98th annual production, hosted and performed by members of the Bohemian Grove and their guests to benefit such local charities as the volunteer firefighters association, the Monte Rio Elementary School and St. Catherineâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s, the Catholic church founded by the club in 1912. But other than dead folks, anyone is game.

McDonell canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be tricked into telling because she simply doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know. For some 30 years, violinist John Creighton Murray has brought his Stradivarius to the rural amphitheater, and George Lee Andrews of the longrunning Phantom of the Opera often comes. Other past luminaries have included rockers Steve Miller and Bob Weir, and even Burt Lahr and Ray Bolger, who made a surprise appearance in the early 1960s and did a short number from The Wizard of Oz. But the best performers are often, like Merv, the biggest surprises. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Composers and songwriters whose name you wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know but whose songs you do,â&#x20AC;? McDonell says. In other words, the goofy-looking guy who sits down at the piano and turns out to be the writer of your favorite song, the one you hum while you vacuum, and whose creator you wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know from the Phantom.

The only confirmed act is the Bohemian Club Big Band, all professional musicians from various ensembles, who will start the night swinging in the roaring tradition of old-school river revelries. You have to show up to find out the rest.

The Monte Rio Variety Show is slated for Thursday, July 23, at 7pm. McDonell warns that all suggestions about dropping chairs off in the amphitheatre at 7am that morning are as serious as a heart attack. Preshow barbecue hosted by firefighters begins at 5pm.

9925 Main St., Monte Rio. $25 at the door; teens ages 13â&#x20AC;&#x201C;17, $5; under 12, free. Barbecue additional.

The Sonoma County Fair Flower Show goes Jurassic hile heart-attack-inducing funnel cakes, overpriced roller coasters and doomed goldfish are all well and good, the star of the Sonoma County Fair is undoubtedly the flower showâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;the largest themed flower show in the United States, thank you very much. Featuring a mix of the regionâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s best amateur and pro garden designers, past years have seen a mixed bag of extravagant themes, ranging from a Peanuts gang tribute to an underwater paradise, complete with larger-than-life fish hanging from the ceiling.

This year, flower show designer Greg Duncan takes a leaf from Spielbergâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s book and channels the colossal, the mighty and the extinct. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Garden Time Forgotâ&#x20AC;? offers fairgoers a shot at their own antediluvian adventure starring life-sized dinosaursâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;many of which are actually being trucked here from their usual spots adorning roadside attractions across the countryâ&#x20AC;&#x201D; waterfalls and a swamp with its own lost island.

Designer Duncan explains the land-before-time theme as having a continuing allure for both young and old. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Dinosaurs have never gone out of fashionâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;for millennia,â&#x20AC;? he says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a timeless appeal to these creatures, and a theme like this allows us to use lots of unusual plants that create a sense of spectacle.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Unusualâ&#x20AC;? only begins to describe the greenery displayed in the exhibit. Landscapers have incorporated such ancient foliage as cycads and ginko trees, which both date back to prehistoric times, as well as installing a section entirely devoted to carnivorous plants.

The winning designer will be announced at the showâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s preview gala, a benefit for the fairâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s scholarship program and an exclusive chance to travel back in time before anyone else this summer.

The Sonoma County Fair kicks off Tuesday, July 28, but if the anticipation is unbearable, catch the flower show preview gala on Sunday, July 26, at the Sonoma County Fairgrounds, 1350 Bennett Valley Road, Santa Rosa. 6pm. $25. 707.545.4203.

Meet Jill • Cat of the Week

Meet Hamilton • Dog of the Week

Lovely, luxurious, loving – just a few of the words that I've heard to describe me – I'm not exaggerating – I just am who I am! Love to roll over for belly rubs and I can't be bothered to worry about the fact that I'm missing a part of my right back leg – that just gives me a comical rolling gait when I walk. To learn more about adopting Jill or many other homeless animals at the Sonoma Humane Society, please visit us at 5345 Hwy 12 West, Santa Rosa (@ Llano Rd), open everyday from 126pm, or check us out online at www.SonomaHumane.org.

An elegant name for this bundle of fluff – but he's really just cute! A 2-year old Terrier mix, he's a lively walker and eager to accompany you on your daily expeditions. But then he's equally ready to curl up next to you for some meaningful affection. To learn more about adopting Hamilton or many other homeless animals at the Sonoma Humane Society, please visit us at 5345 Hwy 12 West, Santa Rosa (@ Llano Rd), open everyday from 12-6pm, or check us out online at www.SonomaHumane.org

The Adoption Center is open 7 days a week from 12PM - 6PM and is located at 5345 Highway 12 West, Santa Rosa (just 5 miles west of Hwy 101 @ Llano Rd) www.sonomahumane.org
