Walk on the wild side of Astoria
I
Coastal Life Story and photos by DWIGHT CASWELL
Sometimes, maps don’t tell the whole story of Astoria’s streets and trails I’ve heard them called “paper streets� – and if you live among the steep hills of Astoria, you know what I’m talking about. A city map may call them streets, and street signs may mark corners, but instead of a street there is a wall of shrubbery. Sometimes there is a deer trail. Or you find stairs, like the landscaped one of 11th Street between Irving and Jerome. You may even find a footpath that offers a glimpse into an unexpected enclave of Astoria.
Cathedral Tree Trail
Cathedral Tree Trail, perhaps the best-known trail in Astoria, is reached by taking Irving to where only a street sign indicates the presence of 28th Street. This is a well-maintained city trail with all the accoutrements: a small parking area, a trail sign with a map, mutt mitts and a garbage can. A gently climbing walk of half a mile through a pleasant forest brings you to the Cathedral Tree, a 300-year-old Sitka spruce, so named for its height and hollow base. Walk another mile, and you’ll be at the Astoria Column. If you don’t want to retrace your steps to Irving, you can take another trail down Coxcomb Hill for 150 yards. Here you have a choice of either following Coxcomb Drive to 15th Street or taking a half mile “nature trail,� open from dawn to dusk, which takes you down to the Clatsop Community College parking lot.
Alameda / West Niagara walk
Some of the most interesting walks are those that combine segments of trail and street. One that involves some long stretches of upand-down (this is Astoria, after all) is a one-mile hike that begins at Capt. Robert Gray School in the 700 block of Alameda Avenue. This is where Alameda dives southward and what was Alameda becomes West Niagara (this is Astoria, after all). Take Niagara, walking past Pleasant Avenue to a dead end that isn’t really a dead end. See the line of trees to your near left? They mark the route of a trail – which amuses city mapmakers to label an extension of Denver Street. Follow the trees to the top of the KLOO DQG \RX ZLOO ¿ QG \RXUVHOI DW WKH intersection of West Lexington Avenue and Lexington Place. Turn right (north) on Lexington Avenue, follow

Art flows through him
“From the time I was a small child in elementary school, art was what I enjoyed doing. I was drawn to it.â€? So says Royal Nebeker, now an internationally recognized artist and long-time art instructor at Clatsop Community College. Nebeker can also tell you the moment he became an artist. “I was always engaged in the physical materials of making things. With art projects in school I was emotionally engaged with all the colors.â€? One class assignment was to draw a utility vehicle; the teacher would place the best drawings on the wall the next day. “Mine wasn’t there,â€? he recalls, “and I started to laugh. It was an epiphany. I knew that my drawing was the best, and the teacher was wrong. )URP WKHQ RQ , ZDV FRQÂż GHQW LQ P\ FUHDWLYH H[ pression, and I distrusted authority. I became an artist. It was something that was all mine, and I was never deterred.â€? Later on, making a living in art was a very different proposition. Though his parents were creative people, and he had grown up in a house full of paintings (“In Norwegian culture, Edvard Munch is extolled as the greatest artist in the world.â€?), “I was constantly told that art was a great avocation, but I couldn’t make a living as an artist.â€? Nebeker earned a degree in psychology at Brigham Young University, while taking every art elective course he could. He then left for Europe, where he found that, “In European culture it was quite possible to be validated as an artist.â€? An art teacher told him it was possible to make a

and began teaching at CCC. He now lives in Gearhart. Still unsure if it was possible to live in rural Oregon and function as an artist, Nebeker put that question to Pulitzer Prize-winning poet Gary Snyder after a poetry reading at CCC. Snyder told Nebeker he had the responsibility to be the artist, but to participate in the largest sphere he could dream of, and bring it back. “That was my second epiphany,â€? Nebeker says. “I learned to think globally, act locally from Snyder. It became evident to me that this is the way I would lead my life.â€?

The show opens Saturday, July 19, with an afternoon reception from 3 to 6 p.m., and the work will remain on display through Aug. 5. Rowland curated the show based on the energy and thought put into the work and the attention and care put into form and materials.

Each artwork included in the show is an artifact that speaks of its journey of creation through its form and surfaces. The process begins with digging the clay from the ground, and many local sites are cherished for the properties of their clay. After the work is formed, it is subjected to the wild and unpredictable heat of the Astoria Dragon Kiln, an outdoor wood-burning kiln built into a slope on Rowland’s rural property.

everal years ago, Long Beach Peninsula actors performed “Fiddler on the Roofâ€? to sold-out audiences; the run had to be extended. Now, almost seven years later, professional voice coach, composer, director and local legend Barbara Poulshock is bringing the musical back into production as part of the Peninsula Association of Performing Artists’ calendar. Poulshock, who was a music SURIHVVRU DW 3DFLÂżF /XWKHUDQ University for 27 years, says, “Our ‘Fiddler’ is going to be so incredible – it’s scary it’s so good!â€? And Poulshock, a perfectionist when it comes to music and performing, is not inclined to exaggerate. “Our cast is so dedicated – everyone helping each other.

Although I’ve popped in a few times for coffee, and I’ve maybe had lunch there once, a long time ago, up until recently, I had never eaten dinner at Astoria Coffeehouse and Bistro.

Cathlamet holds Bald Eagle Days Festival
CATHLAMET, Wash. — More than 26 years ago, when Congress passed the Bald Eagle Endangered Species Act, the Cathlamet Women’s Club decided to parade through Cathlamet in support of the bald eagle. The club wanted to encourage others to protect the beloved bird too. Over the years, the annual event has grown into a festival drawing crowds of more than 3,000 people. The bald eagle is no longer endangered, and Wahkiakum County is proud of the fact many eagles can be seen in and around the area. The annual Bald Eagle Days Festival will be held Friday and Saturday, July 18 and 19 in Cathlamet. The festival is a weekend of fun and offers one

Artist hosts workshops at Sou’Wester SEAVIEW, WASH. — The Sou’Wester Lodge announces Dawn Stetzel as its artist-in-residence for July. Stetzel grew up on a farm in Iowa and went to college at the University of Iowa. She lived in North Carolina for 12 years and then in Massachusetts for three years while completing her Master of Fine Arts degree at the University of Massachusetts at Dartmouth. Stetzel came to the Oregon Coast in 2008 as an artist-in-residence at the Sitka Center for Art and Ecology near Lincoln City, and she now happily calls the Oregon Coast home. Stetzel’s most recent work, a sculptural and performance piece in progress, is a Housetent: a small houseshaped tent with backpack straps, which can travel with the artist wherever she goes. As an object, Housetent speaks to the question, “Where do I live while I am searching for a place to live?” and “How do I live while I am searching for how to live?” Stetzel continually seeks ways to connect to her surroundings and her community. While at the Sou’wester, she will be seen biking, seeking the margins of places, and might be overheard saying, “I could live there,” which might just be the title of her next show. In addition to working on her own projects during the residency, Stetzel will also host a series of public art workshops called Art Parties: A Chance to Chat & Create! every Saturday at 3 p.m. and Wednesday at 5 p.m. in the lodge. These are all

adult-geared events, but parent-guided kids are welcome. They are free and open to the public. Workshops include: Easy-Peasy Printmaking on Cards – Make a monoprint or grab a spud to carve and make prints on paper. Add some texture with the sewing machine and draw on paper with stitches. Participants will make a packet of cards to give as gifts, or anything else you come up with using these materials. Students should wear clothes you may get paint on and bring a sack lunch if you arrive early. Zines: The Art of the Tiny Book – Come make a zine, a tiny folded book (pronounced “zeen,” an abbreviation of fanzine or magazine). In a black-and-white format, use computer-printed text, comics, handwritten text or cutand-pasted images to make your story or picture pages. Zines are usually photo-copied with a small circulation and freely distributed. Make your own zine or add a page

to a Sou’Wester zine, which will be created, published and shared at the 2014 Portland Zine Symposium in August. Techniques will be shown to make a six-page 4-inch by 2.5inch zine from a single piece of 8.5-inch by 11-inch paper, but you may make a larger one if you prefer. Clementine Candles and Wish-Raft Water Launch – All are invited to make candle wish boats to float on a nearby spot of water as a way to greet summer. Participants will make eco-friendly candles out of clementine oranges and olive oil. After making the candles, you can write wishes, dreams, poems or other special thoughts on little bits of paper to be attached (if you want) to a piece a driftwood that will also be the raft for your homemade candle. At sunset, the group will walk to a nearby spot of water with the rafts, light the candles and launch them. If you wish to keep your candles/rafts to launch on another body of water, or use this candle item in any other fashion, you are welcome to. Students should bring a piece of driftwood or bark, a flashlight, and thoughts, wishes and dreams for a happy summer. The Sou’Wester Lodge is located at 3728 J Place.

Author chases Alaska at Seaside library SEASIDE — Seaside Public Library welcomes C.B. Bernard, author of “Chasing Alaska: A Portrait of the Last Frontier Then and Now” at 7 p.m. Thursday, July 24. Book sales by Beach Books and book signings will follow Bernard’s presentation. Friends of the Seaside Library will host this event. Alaska, a state Bernard did not fully understand, was thought of as part theme park, yet it loomed as a mythical and savage place. Intrigued, Bernard lashed a canoe to his truck and traded the comforts of the Lower 48 for a remote island and a career as a reporter. He soon learned that a distant relation had made the same trek northwest a century earlier. Capt. Joe Bernard spent decades sailing the Arctic in his schooner Teddy Bear as an explorer and hunter, enduring shipwrecks, horrific winters and starvation. He lived among the Eskimo and Inuit, giving his name to landmarks across the north. Chasing the legacy of his explorer relative, Bernard recovered journals that he used as guides while boating to remote islands, hiking distant forests and fishing the pristine environment that had lured his Uncle Joe years ago. Bernard is a freelance writer and author whose book, “Chasing Alaska” was a Publishers Weekly Top 10 Travel Pick, a National Geographic top book

“Refresh, Refresh: Stories� by Benjamin Percy
Plot Notes: When the Iraq War was in full swing, a sudden deployment leaves the small town of Tumalo, Oregon emptied of men. Percy’s two teen protagonists, Josh, the narrator, and his best friend, Gordon, lose not only their fathers, but their coaches and teachers as well. Left to their own devices, the boys regularly pummel each other to learn how to take a punch and ride their dirt bikes all night. Hunting trips turn into imaginary combat maneuvers culled from war movies and CNN. Childish pranks swell into brutal acts of violence. They rage and bruise and hurt, and maybe most miraculously, become men in the process. Take Away: With Iraq back in the headlines, Percy’s story reads like a still fresh welt, reminding us that so many real sacrifices have already been made by soldiers and their families. The story’s title comes from the narrator’s tic to refresh his Internet browser to see if there is any word from his father, but may also be a sly comment on the cyclical nature of getting boots on the ground. This story is neither pro-war or anti-war. Like any literature worth its salt, it is never didactic. Recommended For: Fans of James Dickey and of contemporary writers of the West, such as William Kittredge, Ron Carlson, E. Annie Proulx and Pam Houston. The story “Refresh, Refresh� took home a slew of awards and found a second life in adaptation: first as a screenplay, then as a graphic novel. Very mature YA readers may respond to Josh’s emotional turbulence in either the written or graphic form. Bonus: Benjamin Percy is on faculty at Pacific University’s MFA Program, which meets annually in Seaside. The next conference is slated for Jan. 8 to 18, 2015. Go see the man read, if only to marvel at his voice. It is one step below baritone, as if he is speaking on a slowed-down tape, but at a normal speed.

Waikiki Beach, in Cape Disappointment State Park, is often full of driftwood, beach-goers and surfers.
NW word

By RYAN HUME
Waikiki [wahy•kč•kee]
noun 1. A white sand beach and beachfront neighborhood on the island of Oahu, in the city of Honolulu, in the state of Hawaii, famous as a popular resort and tourist destination. 2. A rugged beach in Cape Disappointment State Park, located in southwest Washington on the Long Beach Peninsula. Popular with surfers; has a lot of driftwood. An adjoining amphitheater hosts the Waikiki Beach Concert Series each summer. Origin: From the Hawaiian, waikÄŤkÄŤ, meaning “spouting water.â€? In 1811, having set sail from Waikiki, “when entering the mouth of the Columbia the Tonquin lost several members of her crew and among the number was one Hawaiian who was buried at Cape Disappointment. The 12 Hawaiians who remained on board were murdered with the other members of the crew when the Tonquin was surprised by Indians while in Clayoquot Sound a few weeks later.â€?
