There is nothing quite like walking on the beach, along a river, or around town, for LQVSLUDWLRQ DQG UHÀHFWLRQ $ new idea or fresh insight may emerge. The mind may empty altogether. One never knows what can result when a person begins walking and thinking. As the novelist Thomas Mann wrote, “Thoughts come clearly while one walks.” Author, educator and Nestucca Spit Publisher Matt Love is a habitual walker and has written many books and essays in his mind while walking. “Walking is essential to my creative process,” he says. “I write up most of my ideas during my walks and then sit GRZQ ODWHU DQG OHW WKHP ÀRZ onto the page.” Love developed a unique ambulatory writing workshop because, “I thought other writers and creative minds might enjoy experiencing my process to see if it could help them get started or unstuck,” he said. During the workshop, students will take a series of short walks around Astoria, alone and in groups, and then go through a variety of writing exercises seeking to unlock the creative mind and provide

LNCT’s Living Locally Gala takes a moment to celebrate what dedicated community groups can accomplish together. Whether it’s setting aside land for future generations or donating produce grown at Alder Creek Farm to the county food bank, giving is what makes the LNCT heart beat strong. “You can hear the spirit of generosity from the community,� Seelig said. “Every piece of that generosity builds on itself.�

Story by ANDREW TONRY

Daily Astorian file photo by Bill Wagner

Executive producer Steven Spielberg, left, and director Richard Donner talk in front of the Goonies house in Astoria during the filming of “The Goonies� in 1984. At the time of its creation, no one had any idea that “The Goonies� would become a cult classic — not even the filmmakers.

Daily Astorian file photo

It seemed like the whole town turned out to see “The Goonies� at the Liberty Theater for its 1985 premiere.

The youthful cast of “The Goonies� spent much of their days in on-set school trailers. Here, Ke Hay Quan (“Data�) and Jeff Cohen (“Chunk�) get some fresh Astoria air on their way to a shoot.

THE FIREHOUSE GRILL

The Grilled Turkey Cobb Sandwich is a must try at Firehouse Grill in Seaside.

With quality ingredients and proper preparation, Seaside restaurant makes simplicity sing

F

Among the buzzing tourist hive that is Seaside’s main drag of Broadway, the Firehouse Grill is a paragon and an outlier. It doesn’t grovel, leverage nostalgia, bait and switch, or serve canned, frozen “beach food.â€? Instead, offering just breakfast and lunch, the FireKRXVH LV VKDUS UREXVW DQG FRQÂż GHQWO\ XQGHU stated. As all of the Firehouse’s business is conducted during daylight hours, it nails two breakfast/brunch staples right off the bat: 1) the space, complete with counter seating, is bright, airy and unencumbered and 2) the coffee keeps coming. An accomplished consumer of caffeine, my cup was always hot and never empty. (The beans, from Sleep Monk, are locally roasted and top notch.) As sizzles from the open, stainless steel kitchen enticed, I pursued the menu and Firehouse’s M.O. quickly crystalized: traditional fare — eggy breakfasts, biscuits and gravy, sandwiches and burgers — meant to stand on quality ingredients and proper preparation. On a server’s recommendation I opted for the Grilled Turkey Cobb Sandwich ($11). Here, more than anywhere else, the Firehouse philosophy shined. Inside buttered, daintily toasted bread the house-roasted turkey was tender, the bacon extra-thick and juicy. Creamy avocado mingled with sharp WRPDWR DQG D ]LQJ\ Âż QLVK RI blue-cheese mayo. It was marvelous, a must try — IDPLOLDU WDVWHV Âż QHO\ H[H cuted. Happily and knowingly staying in their lane, Firehouse’s Grilled Turkey Cobb makes no attempt to reinvent the wheel. Rather, it just smoothes out all the imperfections. It’s a perfectly rounded sandwich. The ABCTS Omelette ($12) wrapped light and Ă€ XII\ HJJV DURXQG LWV namesake Avocado, Bacon, Cheese (Jack), Tomato and Spinach. Served with simply seasoned potatoes, the omelet was generous with the chopped bacon (though maybe a little too generous with the sour cream). The accompany-

ing biscuit was nothing to write home about. (But the fact that the Firehouse will substitute gluten-free biscuits for $2 might be.) The chef conversed regularly with diners seated at the counter. He was cheerfully and admirably open about what he was cooking, and how he could better meet customers’ wants and dietary needs. Such care was particularly appreciated by my companion, who was hoping to avoid too much dairy in a salad, and the chef went out of his way to explain that there were trace amounts of feta in the dressing. He offered a sample and an alternative, though it wouldn’t be necessary — just leave out the big chunks. The Fish Taco Salad ($13) was more salad WKDQ WDFR VDODG 7KRXJK WKH PHQX VD\V ³À RXU tortilla bowlâ€? it was served on a scant bed of tortilla chips.

with rather than skewer. The Blue Cheese Bacon Burger ($13), meanwhile, didn’t skimp. The half-pound beef patty was clearly hand formed. Cooked medium it had little bits of pink, which I appreciated. The bacon this time was quite crisp, which turned out to be a boon against the exceedingly soft and juicy patty. The blue cheese was rather mild and the accompanying fries were, well, fries — hand-cut and large. With the burger I sipped a Bloody Mary ($6.75), another necessity at any brunch spot. It was savory, with a noticeable but not overwhelming kick. But a Bloody Mary is only as good as its garnish, and here the drink — served with only a lime, lemon and celery —

Now, for the elephant in the room: Lori and Bob Breslauer, who opened the Firehouse in 2012, recently sold it. The new owners run other restaurants in the area, most notably Doogers. According to a server, the new owners have made a few changes to the menu, and there will likely be more to come. With a glimmer of hope, the server relayed that the current chef would be staying on. At the same time, though, other local chefs are chattering: Will purveyors change? Will the quality of ingredients suffer? Will food costs be cut? (Some are saying they already have.) I’m hoping not.

In an area where some take advantage, drag their feet, or covet the bottom line, the Firehouse is a port of refuge — the kind of place that could be successful regardless of its surroundings.

‘Terra Nova’ art show opens at Cannon Beach Gallery Art association hosts nature journaling workshop in conjunction with exhibition CANNON BEACH and SEASIDE — The all-juried art show “Terra Nova” will open at the Cannon Beach Gallery on Saturday, June 6 with an opening Artist’s Reception from 5 to 7 p.m. Northwest artists were encouraged to blur the lines of contemporary landscape for this exhibition, which will be curated by the Cannon Beach Gallery Committee. “Terra Nova” will be on display until June 28.

Reporter Make a splash in business journalism by joining the reporting staff of the ambitious Coast River Business Journal, located where the Columbia River and Pacific Ocean meet. This is a highly dynamic and story-filled place, where Portlanders and Seattleites come to make their dreams of coastal living come true. You should arrive here with polished writing skills, a strong work ethic and robust curiosity to delve into the professional lives of some of the Pacific Northwestʼs most creative and imaginative business people. Working in partnership with colleagues at the Chinook Observer, The Daily Astorian, Seaside Signal and Cannon Beach Gazette, Coast River Business Journal produces a monthly print publication. With your geographical beat spanning Clatsop County, Ore., and Pacific County, Wash., you can choose to live on the Long Beach Peninsula, Astoria or Oregonʼs North Coast. While this position is managed from Long Beach, you will also sometimes work from our Astoria and Seaside offices. An important aspect of this job is providing business coverage to several publications, each with a different environment. There will be aspects of breaking business news, in-depth business reporting and “main street” business news. Part of your job will be to continue ramping up our online content for timely and expansive coverage of business news. Healthcare is one of our regionʼs rapidly expanding economic sectors and we want to hear your ideas about how to cover it in ways that are useful to those in the caring professions, as well as engaging for the community members they serve. We have a rising tide of young and second-career entrepreneurs starting new craft breweries, restaurants, retail stores, galleries and online businesses. You will need to be as engaged and creative as they are. Our traditional industries — tourism to forestry, seafood to homes sales/construction, farming of everything from organic vegetables to legal marijuana — all are wide awake and gaining renewed momentum in a fast-expanding regional economy. Weʼll expect you to dig well beyond the superficial and explain where these industries are going, and why. Our coast is comfortable and still affordable. It's a place where our reporters and their families purchase homes and settle in for careers that are richly connected to the Northwest interior. Part of your job will be exploring and explaining the growing ties between our coast and the cities of Puget Sound and northwest Oregon. We offer a competitive wage, a generous benefit package, and a warm and friendly office environment in Mac-based buildings. We work hard but have fun — the ocean beach is a short stroll from our Long Beach and Seaside offices. We enjoy world-class restaurants, fantastic salmon and deep-sea fishing, amazing wildlife and bird watching, and many other outdoor activities. Portland is two and a half hours; Seattle three hours. Benefits include Paid Time Off (PTO), insurances and a 401(k)/Roth 401(k) retirement plan. Send clips, resume and letter of interest to EO Media Group, PO Box 2048, Salem, OR 97308-2048, by fax to 503-371-2935 or e-mail hr@eomediagroup.com.

“Three Weeks With The Goonies” by Mick Alderman 2001 Productions, 2010

Plot Notes: In the summer of 1984, 19-year-old aspiring filmmaker Mick Alderman was given the unique opportunity to receive a hands-on education when the crew and cast of the Steven Spielberg-produced film “The Goonies” landed in his backyard of Astoria, Oregon. Having received permission from Richard Donner, the film’s director, Alderman spent the next three weeks as a “fly-on-thewall,” observing the production as they completed principle photography at numerous locations around town and at Ecola State Park. Take Away: Alderman is an affable guide to this behind-the-scenes look into the making of a bona fide cult classic. Watching a big time production for this young filmmaker is akin to letting a kid loose in a candy store. Alderman specifically watches the grand scale of the filming pro-

cess with the technical wonder of an artist looking to learn more about his craft, which he is, and so it may not come as a surprise that much of what Alderman remembers anecdotally is about the challenges the filmmakers faced and the successes and setbacks that occurred on location. There are no bombs dropped here, but from his first run-in with Steven Spielberg to describing some of the difficulties of working with a young cast, Alderman is thorough in his recollections. Recommended For: Goonies of all ages. Bonus: Alderman has continued to make movies in the subsequent years since his time with “The Goonies.” You can watch the trailer for his third feature, “Haunted Shore,” which was filmed entirely in Astoria on his website, 2001productions.com

MIKEY (V.O.) ‘I will never betray my goon dock friends, We will stick together until the whole world ends, Through heaven and hell, and nuclear war, Good pals like us will stick like tar, In the city, or the country, or the forest, or boonies, I am proudly declared, one of the goonies!’”
