It’s mid-afternoon on a
spectacular January day. The sun lights up the clouds in the west, and the hint of a sunset pink starts to glow.
For once, the breeze is relatively dead, and though it’s winter, the air is comfortable. The base of Tillamook Head to the south swarms with mist. As you walk along the sandy beach of Seaside, seagulls squawking above, you pass smiling faces of other beach walkers. You deeply breathe in that coastal air. The coast isn’t only to be enjoyed in the warmer months. Ask any local, and they’ll say the beach is a different experience – and one not to be missed – in the winter. The weather might be grand, or it could be wet and rainy. But then, storm watching is a popular activity around here. And when you look at Seaside – with its easy access to the VWUHWFKHV RI ÀDW VDQG\ EHDFK DQG a row of endlessly interesting shops and restaurants on Broadway, as well as the rest of the city – there isn’t much not to love. Welcome to Coast Weekend’s annual Seaside issue, where we devote all our feature stories to the multifaceted and many-layered experiences awaiting in this Oregon coastal town.

Did you know that Seaside is a sports hub? Thousands of spectators visit every summer for an annual beach volleyball tournament, and the Hood to Coast Relay starts at Timberline Lodge on Mt. Hood and ends with a party on Seasideâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s beach. Seaside offers something for everyone: long walks, fresh seafood, literary events at the library, strange creatures at the aquarium, and large conferences and spectacles at the Seaside Civic and Convention Center (located next to a large â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and free! â&#x20AC;&#x201C; pub-
lic parking lot, which Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m sure city-dwellers appreciate). There are also tons of history lessons. Lewis and Clark ended their westward journey in the area and made it to Seaside. At the south end of town lies the site where members of the Corps of Discovery boiled seawater to produce salt. An annual re-enactment occurs in August.

Seaside hosts a new monthly beach cleanup Starting this year, Seaside residents and visitors will have a new way to enjoy the beach and help keep it clean and safe for others.

Tips to help keep Oregon’s beaches clean • Bring a reusable trash container or other receptacle with you when you visit the beach so that you can remove your trash when you leave. • Make removing trash and debris a part of your walk on the beach. • Participate in an organized cleanup activity. Some groups that organize beach cleanups include SOLVE (statewide), Surfrider (various communities), and local organizations like the Beach Drive Buccaneers (Seaside).
• If you are involved with a civic group or are an individual interested in leading a cleanup, you can work with SOLVE to organize your own cleanup event. SOLVE can help provide materials, training and recruitment. • Be aware of items you should not bring to the beach. These include glass containers, fireworks and firewood containing nails or wires. Be sure to remove cigarette butts (the most common beach debris, according to SOLVE), as well as styrofoam and plastics, which can be harmful to wildlife.

An arts SHAKE -UP in Seaside Denise Fairweather takes the reigns of the monthly Seaside Art Walk
L
Let’s talk about the Seaside Art Walk. Certainly any discussion of that subject should include Denise Fairweather, owner of Fairweather House and Garden, a gallery and home decor shop in Seaside. Recently, she’s stepped up to help facilitate the hand-off of the monthly art event from the Seaside Chamber of Commerce to the makers and purveyors of the area’s art, a change that became effective in January. Right now, she sees her role as more cheerleader than leader, though. “There is a strong, strong culture of collaboration (that goes) beyond the boundaries of individual businesses to insure the vitality of the entire Art Walk experience, a new chapter of doing art better,” maintains the gallery owner. The woman certainly comes well Tuali¿ed. A former artist and teacher and an accredited interior designer, Fairweather knows a lot about running a business. She owned two in Washington’s Clark County (a Àorist and a gift shop gallery) and a third in Gearhart. The latter was essentially reincarnated as Fairweather House and Garden after it was hard hit by the Great Coastal Gale in December 2007.

Prom
Left: A â&#x20AC;&#x153;smallâ&#x20AC;? poke salad of crab, raw Ahi tuna, avocado, mango, pink grapefruit and carrots was generous and visually appealing, though the Mouth thought the soy dressing was overly salty for the dish.
Well-imagined dishes and a spectacular view make for good eats I shudder to think of the millions upon millions of calories Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve consumed in a lifetime of regular eating out, let alone in my weekly dining adventures as The Mouth. I couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t even wager a guess at the number of restaurants Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve visited, from the best of the best to the worst of the worst. Combined with my years working in food service, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve mentally catalogued a lot of observations about food and the people who eat it, and the one WKDW LV Âż WWLQJ IRU WRGD\ÂśV UH view is this: A restaurant, any restaurant, with an ocean view, has a tremendous leg up on its competition, even before the plates hit the table. We simply cannot help but be WUDQVÂż [HG E\ WKDW RFHDQ YLHZ and with a great view I often forgive a few food transgressions, which is what Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m about to do.

My friendly server snapped me back to reality, and I began the afternoonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s eatings. First up, a simple bread board with house-made French bread, balsamic vinegar and a rotating selection of olive oils for dipping. One of the two oils on the board was infused with citrus, which wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t to my taste, but the bread with the vinegar and plain olive oil was very suitable. , ZDV H[FLWHG WR VHH D SRNH RI FUDE DQG UDZ $KL tuna on the menu.

The Ahi tuna held up relatively well even with the dressing, but the crab completely absorbed it and was sadly too salty for me to eat. The sweetness of the mango was completely hidden, the avocado, like the crab, absorbed the dressing, and the pink grapefruit only lent bitterness. The bitterness and saltiness prevented me from eating much of the dish. With such lovely ingredients on the plate, each ZLWK WKHLU RZQ XQLTXH Ă&#x20AC; DYRU SURÂż OH YHU\ OLWWOH GUHVVLQJ LV needed.

PRICES: Lunchtime prices hover around the $15 mark; prices are what I might expect in a venue of this sort, but as I always say, any price for mediocre food is too high. SERVICE: Our server was friendly and accommodating, although our food was slow to come out of the kitchen.
ATMOSPHERE: The restaurant is simply lovely: rich, dark woods, a large, handsome river rock fireplace, deep leather sofas for lounging, and of course, a fantastic view. ALTERNATIVE OPTIONS: There are a few vegetarian options, including several salads, and other options may become available seasonally.

In a delicious bit of irony, Seaside Brewing Company keeps its kegs in what was once the drunk tank of the former Seaside City Jail.
The beach, at the heart of Seaside, seems to fill each evening when the sun goes down ... there is no better place from which to welcome the evening.

Five Minutes With ... BRITNEY DRUMHELLER
Submitted photo
Shells, tidepool creatures and other beach items and animals inspire Britney Drumheller’s work.
Born in Walla Walla, Wash., and raised in Cannon Beach, this local artist pursued a career in fashion design after high school and lived in Los Angeles and Seattle. Missing the charm and beauty of Cannon Beach, she decided to move back home to the North Oregon Coast. How did you get involved part of me; in all of its forms, in art? it enriches my life. After Art has always been a graduating from the Fashion
Institute of Design and Merchandising in Los Angeles, my career in fashion design focused on fashion illustration – until my Dad suggested I try to sell some beach-inspired art. I went to the beach and studied all of the creatures in the tidepools and tried to put onto paper my discoveries. My good friends suggest I bring my sketches to Fairweather House and Garden in Seaside, and I was so pleased to be able to put my art in such a beautiful gallery. What art medium do you work in and where do you show your work? My favorite is to work with markers and colored pencils. The markers I use can give the allure of looking like watercolors, but can also give you crisp, clean lines. I enjoy working within the contrast of the freedom of water color and the preciseness of markers. Always sketching when I have a chance, I can get lost in a sketch for hours. I show my work at Fairweather House and Garden in Seaside and Purple Moon Boutique, Ocean Lodge and Van Buren Lighthouse Inn in Cannon Beach. What subjects or themes do you focus on in your artwork? Couture fashion and the intricacies of the beach

wildlife. It really depends on the project I’m working on; I always love a challenge. What inspires you – in life and in art? Inspiration for me comes from everything: nature, movies, music, art exhibits, history. I can pull so much inspiration from anything that gives you a new perspective. Is there anything you’re currently working on or have recently finished?

I’m currently working on revamping my portfolio and putting it on the web. I am hoping to finish very soon. If you could meet one artist, alive or dead, who would it be and what would you want to know? I would want to meet fashion designer Alexander McQueen, his runway shows are the reason I wanted to be a designer. He listened to his heart and poured his creative energies into his clothing without hesitation. I know you only said one, but I would also like to meet the artist Nick Cave. After seeing his exhibit in Seattle, I was blown away. He took ordinary items and brought them to life in a way I didn’t know was possible. What’s your favorite thing to do on the North Coast? Walk on the beach and explore the tide pools. It truly is a beautiful coastline. If you could go back in time and give your younger self some advice, what would it be? As my good friend Jamie would say, “Don’t sweat the small stuff.”
