Meet author Heather Arndt Anderson as she reads from her book “Breakfast: A History,â€? and learn how it all started at 7 p.m. Thursday, June 19. Arndt Anderson feels that the hobbits of J.R.R. Tolkien had it right when it came to breakfast. Their lives in the Shire allowed them six meals a day – three of which were before lunch and included breakfast and a second breakfast. )URP FRUQ Ă€DNHV WR SDQcakes, “Breakfast: A Historyâ€? explores this “most important meal of the dayâ€? as a social and gastronomic phenomenon. The author explains how and why the meal emerged, what is commonly eaten in this meal across the globe, why certain foods are considered indispensable, and how it has been depicted in art and media.

NOTES FROM THE EDITOR
A spring hike up Saddle Mountain “To one who has been ming this trip, just soaking in
long in city pent, / ‘Tis very sweet to look into the fair / And open face of heaven.�
John Keats’ words about the joy found when venturing out into the countryside ring true on many an occasion, and I experienced the feeling myself not too long ago. Compared to Portland or Seattle, Astoria is far from a bustling metropolis. Yet, I’ve heard the locals dub it “the cityâ€? in relation to its surroundings. And sometimes it feels achingly good to leave the downtown behind and cross the boundary of city limits. Some friends invited me to hike Saddle Mountain. I’d completed the challenging hike just once before, and doing so with the promise of VHHLQJ ODWH VSULQJ ZLOGĂ€RZHUV was an enticing incentive. We started our trek shortly before 3 p.m. In an effort to leave the city – and the 21st century – behind, we hiked sans technology. I didn’t bring my cell phone.

As the forest gradually receded, the number of wildÀRZHUV JUHZ XQWLO WKH PHDGows showed them off in full force. Indian paintbrush glowed in the grass. Foxgloves and

Succulents encroached on the path. Daisies and purple phlox bloomed and smelled sweet. I event spotted a bee working on some clover blossoms. Other wildlife was in evidence: Caterpillars crossed our path several times, and friendly swallows swooped overhead during a rest stop. On clear days, you can see as far as the ocean and the mouth of the Columbia River from the top of Saddle Mountain. On this trip, the summit was cloaked in a cloud â&#x20AC;&#x201C; all was white mist, eerie and awesome. We laid out a blanket and commenced on a picnic, shar-

Lon Haynes smokes a cigarette during some off time on the Tillamook Rock Lighthouse.
This image is from an issue of Life Magazine published in 1942 about the role of the Oregon Coast during World War II.
This photo of the Tillamook Rock Lighthouse was most likely taken in 1939, but could have been earlier. It was taken prior to the U.S. Coast Guard taking over the management of the lighthouse from the U.S. Bureau of Lighthouses.
600 long and arduous days to construct. Terrible Tilly, as it became known, was in operation from 1881 until it was decommissioned by the U.S. Coast Guard in 1957. During its life as a fully functioning lighthouse, Tilly acted as a warning beacon to thousands of vessels skirting the coastline. The Columbia River became a busy part of marine commerce in the mid-to-late
1800s. The waters surrounding the mouth of the Columbia River are still considered the most dangerous in the world. The lighthouse was home WR D FUHZ RI XS WR ÂżYH PHQ at a time.

Explore Stanley Marsh on a nature walk Neal Maine to lead free NCLC excursion in Seaside Friday SEASIDE â&#x20AC;&#x201D; As part of its Summer on the Land series, the North Coast Land Conservancy will hold a Nature Walk at Stanley Marsh from 2 to 4 p.m. Friday, June 13. NCLC purchased the 80acre Stanley Marsh-Thompson Creek property in 2006, and the landscape has been undergoing a dramatic transformation ever since. Once open pasture dominated by invasive reed canary grass is slowly evolving to a dynamic wetland system full of willow and native wetland grasses. Migratory song birds, Roosevelt elk and beavers thrive in Stanley Marsh, and the adjacent Thompson Creek plays host to wild coho salmon in the fall. Explore this beautiful property and observe what happens, both anticipated and unexpected, when humans
attempt to build a whole new ecological system. Neal Maine will lead this excursion. After a 30-year career as an award-winning biology teacher at Seaside High School, Maine became WKH ÂżUVW H[HFXWLYH GLUHFWRU RI NCLC, which he co-founded in 1986.

There is no established route to becoming an artist. Artists may attend art classes and get a degree, or not. They may serve a long apprenticeship, or do something seemingly unrelated before turning to art, as Paul Rutz did. His path was more unusual than most, and you can see the results of his journey this month at RiverSea Gallery in Astoria; his show, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Idle Hands,â&#x20AC;? opens during Saturdayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s art walk. Rutz graduated from the Naval Academy in 2001 with a major in English and a minor in Spanish, and he received a masterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s degree in English and American literature from George Mason University eight months later. What next? Service aboard the carrier USS Kennedy, then dancing in various small ballet groups while in the Naval Reserve. He then served as a reporter and photographer for the Pentagon press service before returning to school (Purdue University this time) to study imagery in American culture. He wrote his dissertation, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Representing the Iraq War â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Boots on the Ground â&#x20AC;&#x201C; in Documentary/Artistic Hybrid,â&#x20AC;? and was awarded a doctorate in 2011.

ART BUSINESSES 1. Imogen Gallery 240 11th St. Imogen Gallery presents a second solo exhibition for artist Lauren Mantecón. Known for her ethereal and evocative style, Mantecón brings a strong collection of mixed-media paintings that interpret through metaphor the bridge between the physical and spiritual. Through calm, meditative control

of color and by painting layer upon layer, Mantecón guides the viewer to another world, fusing image and idea, landscape and spiritual identity. Mantecón will be present to answer questions about her work. Light bites and beverages will be provided by Astoria Coffeehouse & Bistro. 2. Old Town Framing Company 1287 Commercial St. Old Town Framing welcomes back Stephen DeLoe for this month’s art walk. DeLoe’s medium is scratchboard, which is drawing negative to positive (black to white) instead of positive to negative (as in pencil to paper). He has mastered the medium and presents 22 pieces representing all types of sea life, from the great white shark to the shrimp. 3. RiverSea Gallery 1160 Commercial St. RiverSea Gallery presents two solo shows for June. “Idle Hands” features
“Never Level” by Bruce Peterson of Seaview, Washington, at Forsythēa.

figurative paintings by Portland artist Paul Rutz. In this new series, he uses hands as a metaphor for the physical and emotional connection we have with objects in our daily lives. In the Alcove is “Down on the Farm,” abstracted aerial landscapes by Ruth Armitage, who lets her imagination take flight as she renders fields and farmhouses, roadways and forests as they might be seen from above, sometimes hidden by drifts of cloud.
4. Tempo Gallery 1271 Commercial St. Tempo Gallery, a co-op of 10 artists, will feature monotypes by printmaker Normandie Hand. Hand will unveil a monumental monotype (7-feet by 5-feet) titled, “La Grande Fifi,” a romping dog created from eight monotype panels, which will be shown along with a number of monotypes of other canine friends. Local jazz group Grand Avenue will play from 5 to 6:30 p.m. Refreshments will be served.

5. KALA 1017 Marine Drive “Q-tip Project Redux”: A seemingly banal task, a simple part of many people’s everyday routine, yields surprising art. In 2007 Don Frank photographed 26 local artists each in front of the same background, each diligently cleaning out their ears with a Q-tip. The resulting portraits are as different as each artist. Now, Frank exhibits 12 in the series, this time with a new framing approach. There is a powerful resistance to change. Materials resist, and the artist must coax, tease and sometime fight to transform matter from one form into another. Agnes Field’s work-in-progress documents the experimental transformation of material in “Material Resistance.” Also view work by artists Sid Deluca, Stephen Stevanov and Stirling Gorsuch.
6. Fernhill Glass 1450 Exchange St. Fernhill Glass is ready for summer with hummingbird feeders for your little buddies, vases for your flowers, bowls for your fruit and more. Stop in, have a snack and watch us demonstrate glass blowing from 11 a.m. to 8 p.m.
7. Laughing Duck Digital Pond 120 10th St., No. 3 Thom E. Dickerson, owner of Laughing Duck, will be exhibiting “People Who Fly ... Differently,” a fantasy series combining photographs and illustrations, plus some historical restorations of U.S. Navy dirigibles as well as a triptych of Nash Editions prints exhibiting the owner’s early digital fine art print beginnings. Refreshments will be served.
8. Ratz & Company 260 10th St. Astoria’s newest gallery will showcase owner Dave McMacken’s paintings and his early work in the rock ‘n’ roll biz, which garnered him a place in the Album

9. Forsythēa Home & Garden Arts 1124 Commercial St. Michael Parker, of Oysterville, Washington, is inspired by the trees. He uses dense limbs and trunks that have fallen naturally to create beautiful vessels. Bruce Peterson, of Seaview, Washington, captures striking photographic images of boats and landscapes, then adds a painterly finish with the use of technology. Along with these two artists, Forsythēa continues to show Nancy Campiche’s photography. 10. Carine’s Studio 211 12th St. Come check out Carine’s one-of-akind jewelry. Each piece is made by Carine in her on-site studio, using precious metals and up-cycled pieces.

ASTORIA — You can help keep Astoria in color and texture this weekend. The Astoria Visual Arts’ Fiber Arts Academy has been organizing an Astoria Yarn Bomb. A yarn bomb – also known as guerrilla or urban knitting – is a type of graffiti or street art that uses colorful swathes of knitted or crocheted yarn to dress up everyday street features. “This is the first year we’re tried to pull this off,” said Margaret Thierry of the Fiber Arts Academy. “And I really don’t know how much stuff we’re going to get.” Participants in the Astoria Yarn Bomb should gather at the Astoria Fiber Arts Academy, 1296 Duane St., at noon Friday, June 13. Bring rectangles and circles made of yarn, then help attach them onto trees, posts, flower pots – all around
Astoria. “Say if you started knitting a sweater 25 years ago and you’re never going to finish it. You can bring us what you have, and we will repurpose it,” Thierry said. “It’s not too late for people to bring stuff by.” You can drop off your crocheted and knit pieces beforehand at the Academy, but call Thierry at 503-325-9285 to make sure it is open, and she can meet you there. From 1 to 5:30 p.m. Saturday, artist Bonnie Meltzer will lead a public crochet outside in the courtyard in front of the academy. Meltzer will have a giant figure for you to embellish with chains and polka dots. No experience is needed. Yarn and hooks will be provided. “You can help out and help (Meltzer) finish it up, even if you don’t know what you’re

In 2008 the festival received the Ovation Award as the best performing arts festival in Oregon, and in 2011 the festival took a second place American Prize in Opera Performance, and Clark took top place for opera conducting. Today, applause for the festival is coming from as far away as Londonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Opera Magazine, which praised the festivalâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x153;bold statement in the Liberty Theater.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re probably better known in the national and international world of music,â&#x20AC;?

The festival has achieved its level of growth and recognition by being daring, doing what no one else was doing.

It is not. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our biggest project,â&#x20AC;? says

Stellar atmosphere, food and service make for a top-notch dining experience
The epidemic currently hitting the coast is something Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been predicting for years â&#x20AC;&#x201C; fortunately, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a tasty epidemic, and the only medicine necessary is soy sauce with a little wasabi. 2YHU WKH ODVW Âż YH RU VL[ \HDUV VXVKL KDV JRW ten more locally popular, with Tokyo Teriyaki in Astoria, Tora Sushi in Seaside, and Fishes Japanese Cuisine in Cannon Beach.

Perhaps this is because itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a much smaller space, or because Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been in the space so many times over the years, when it was inhabited by other businesses. There is a warm familiarity about it, and the dĂŠcor is subtle, minimal and designed to showcase the food. Our server was warm, charming and knowledgeable about the menu, and we began with a round of miso soup and cucumber salad. Miso, of course is a traditional Japanese soup that consists of a broth called â&#x20AC;&#x153;dashi,â&#x20AC;? into which a miso paste is incorporated. Different ingredients are added depending on the region you visit, but the version at Tora includes onions, tofu and seaweed.

Three artists share their visions of Oregon Cannon Beach Gallery opens plein air art show June 14
CANNON BEACH â&#x20AC;&#x201D; â&#x20AC;&#x153;I canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t say why I paint; I just know I have to,â&#x20AC;? explains Oregon artist Robert Gamblin about his driving passion. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Painting can be simple, but for me it is complex, and I revel in pushing myself into that complexity.â&#x20AC;? Gamblin, along with two of his contemporaries, Scott Gellatly and Gretha Lindwood, will have new work on display at the Cannon Beach Gallery in a show titled â&#x20AC;&#x153;Shared Oregon Visionsâ&#x20AC;? from June 14 to July 28. All three artists are known for their plein air work, a time-honored tradition of working outside of the studio, in the elements, capturing the light and a particular moment in time directly on the canvas. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Shared Oregon Visionsâ&#x20AC;? will be a part of Cannon Beachâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s town-wide arts festival, Plein Air and More, which takes place June 27 to 29, with special events planned for the weekend. All three artists will participate in the Saturday, June 28 â&#x20AC;&#x153;Paint Outâ&#x20AC;? session in which artists set up their easels around town and work from the surrounding environment. There will also be an Artistsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Conversation Saturday, June 28 with Gamblin, Gellatly and Lindwood at the Cannon Beach Gallery beginning at 4 p.m., which will then transition into the Artistsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Reception from 5 to 7 p.m. Gamblin possesses an intimate understanding of paint and color. In the tradition of the European masters, Gamblin began experimenting with mixing his own oil colors in 1980, which led to founding his own oil paint manufacturing company. Twenty years later, Gamblin founded a second venture, Gamblin Conservation Colors, a company that makes color for conservators and restorers in major museums to repair damaged artwork. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Each of my paintings is

Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s all the more reason for local fans â&#x20AC;&#x201C; those who know the group and those who donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t â&#x20AC;&#x201C; to take advantage of this unusual opportunity.

Ships moored near Astoria wait to travel up the Columbia River with grain, logs, cars and many other commodities. Each ship has to be piloted across the Columbia River bar as it enters and exits the river.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;Wildâ&#x20AC;? by Cheryl Strayed Plot notes: In her 20s, after the death of her mother and the imploding of her own marriage, Cheryl Strayed feels utterly lost. Impulsively, she decides to hike the Pacific Crest Trail from the Mojave Desert through California and Oregon to the Bridge of the Gods at the Columbia River. Alone on the trail, she begins to heal and find herself. Take away: The single, worn hiking boot on the cover (and the story of that boot in the prologue) instantly grabbed me. This is a story of courage, growth and self acceptance. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s also an inspiration to put your own hiking boots on and hit the trail. With so many great hiking spots available locally (Cape Disappointment State Park, Tillamook Head, Saddle Mountain), now you have another reason to get outside this summer. Recommended for: Hikers, novice to experienced. Those feeling adrift. Anyone seeking a new hobby. Currently reading:
â&#x20AC;&#x153;Cookedâ&#x20AC;? by Michael Pollan Plot notes: Pollan explores how the classical four elements of fire, water, air and earth are used to transform raw nature into exquisite food and drink. The book is divided in four sections: He delves into the history and practice of barbecue, stews, baking bread, and fermentation. Thoughts: I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t read too much non-fiction in my downtown, but Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve always been a Pollan fan, and his latest book doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t disappoint. Beyond the science he explains, the real people he talks to and his own experiences in the kitchen, Pollan also focuses on how â&#x20AC;&#x153;the cook stands squarely between nature and culture.â&#x20AC;? Ultimately, the book is about connections: to our food sources, to the environment and to each other â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and how cooking makes us human. Recommended for: Chefs, amateur cooks, anyone curious about food. History and philosophy lovers. Next on my list:
â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Fault in Our Starsâ&#x20AC;? by John Green Plot notes: Sixteen-year-old Hazel has stage IV cancer, and to help deal with her depression, her doctor sends her to a weekly support group, where she meets Augustus Waters, another cancer survivor. The two fall in love. Thoughts: Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m a sucker for young adult fiction with rave reviews, and this book has been sitting on my bookshelf for about a year. The movie adaptation starring Shailene Woodley hit theaters last week. As a pretty firm believer in reading the book first before seeing the movie, I have no excuse not to crack it open. Tips: Expect romance, a witty narrator, frankness about a tough subject. Keep a box of Kleenex handy. Do you always pick up best sellers, or is your beach bag full of summer reads? Are you in the middle of a gripping novel? Did you just finish a stellar book?
