Her deep love and respect for traditional music has long been a driving inÀuence, and those roots can be heard in her own original music. Hayes has been a ¿xture of the Northwest music scene since 1988. He is a versatile player with a unique approach to accompaniment. He has a great understanding of bluegrass, country, Celtic and rock music.

Motorman Russ Thompson has been operating the Astoria Riverfront Trolley for 12 years.

DRIVER’S SEAT What it takes to be an Astoria Riverfront Trolley conductor
O
“Old 300â€? emerges from the trolley barn, the bright brass and shining red paint belying her 101 years. She moves slowly down the track on which the Burlington Northern once moved freight, clanging her bell at each street. A few people use the trolley to commute, but most, including the conductor and motorman, ride for the fun of it. 7KDW GHÂż QLWHO\ GHVFULEHV WKH Âż UVW passengers to get on, a young family. The bell clangs, and the trolley begins to move. “Does anyone want to ring the bell?â€? asks conductor Russ Thompson. A boy of 8 or so comes forward hesitantly. “We encourage bell ringing,â€? Thompson tells him. The boy pulls the cord, and the other children rush forward to take their turn. The trolley clatters over trestles and past the downtown district on its 3-mile riverfront journey from Portway Street to Pier 39. Halfway along its route, the trolley passes the old railway depot, which was recently renovated by the Columbia River Maritime Museum, christened the Barbey Maritime Center, and is 4 | June 5, 2014 | coastweekend.com
devoted to boat building and related classes. Thompson may have become a model railroader because his father worked for the Portland, Seattle and Spokane Railway that served the depot. When he retired and moved to Astoria, Thompson says, “I realized that I could have a full-sized train to play with.â€? Well, not a train exactly, but the RQH WUROOH\ Ă€ HHW RZQHG E\ WKH $VWRULD Riverfront Trolley Association does run on tracks. Built in1913 by the American Car Company of St. Louis, “Old 300â€? served the streetcar system of San Antonio, Texas for 20 years. The trolley eventually wound up in the Oregon Electric Railway Trolley Park near Forest Grove, which leased and then sold the car to Astoria. The trolley is maintained and operated entirely by volunteers, and if Russ Thompson is typical of the volunteers, the Trolley Association is evidence that we never really outgrow our love of toys. Not that Thompson and his colleagues don’t take the trolley seriously. The two-person crew of conductor
and motorman go through extensive training, and every motorman is also trained to do the conductor’s job. The motorman is responsible for safety; it is his job to operate the brakes and speed controls and, as the training manual puts it, “pay strict attention to the track ahead.� The reason for this becomes clear as the trolley inches past a large parked truck making a delivery to the Baked Alaska restaurant, while a car ignores the bell and the “watch for trolley� signs and barges across the intersection (“operate the trolley bell BEFORE AND THROUGH all intersections,� says the manual). The conductor’s job is more complex. Thompson explains, “He takes the money, lets the passengers on and off, provides the narrative, and tells the motorman when to stop and go.� He also assists the elderly and disabled, decides if food, drink, drunks, or pets are allowed on board (“If a mess is made, the Conductor is responsible for the cleanup,� the manual states), and deals with emergencies (“CPR training is not required but would be an asset.�)
The conductor’s role as a narrator is the one passengers are most familiar with. A booklet provided by the Trolley Association describes everything the trolley passes by – but it’s all in the delivery. Passing the Holiday Inn Express, Thompson points out “the one sandy beach in Astoria. Nude bathing is acceptable, but only during November, December, January and February.� Thompson, and every other conductor it seems, is a showman at heart. “You play to the crowd. The jokes may or may not work,� he says. “Find something you want to talk about, and throw it in.� Thompson talks about shanghaiing as the trolley passes Ninth Street, explaining how the bars and bordellos could provide “a young man who was no longer awake� for a ship’s crew: “the fees for this recruitment were shared among all the personnel except for the recruit.� As the trolley passes 14th Street, Thompson talks about the making of “Free Willy� and the invention of cable television in Astoria in 1958. At 39th Street, everybody stands up and switches the seat backs to front (the new back), and sits down again.
“If we have more passengers,â€? Thompson tells the passengers, “we all get out and pick up the trolley to turn it around.â€? From Pier 39, the trolley returns the way it came, with different narration. Travel the entire length of the line both ways, and you’ll have a pretty good picture of the history of Astoria and its trolley. Back at the trolley barn, Thompson points to a shelf of hats. “Each new volunteer gets a hat, but we provide our own uniforms. We have a relaxed dress code, as long as you wear a cap and vest.â€? After listening to his jokes for six miles, I think of asking if that means pants are optional, but I think better of it. Thompson’s gleaming gold-encrusted cap, by the way, is not standard issue, but a gift from his wife. Russ Thompson has been ridLQJ WKH WUROOH\ UDLOV VLQFH Âż QLVKLQJ his training in 2003, and is now the training coordinator. Like every QRQSURÂż W WKH $VWRULD 5LYHUIURQW Trolley Association depends on its volunteers, and as I take my leave he looks at me and says, pointedly I think, “We’re always looking for new people.â€?

‘In Libraries I Believe’
Our own internationally famous lepidopterist Robert Michael Pyle sent in an exquisite poem tying together the natural world with his appreciation of the community-enhancing values of librarians.
‘The Librarians’ There is a golden walnut tree outside and a spider, dropping bit by bit on her way to work like a lineman cinching down a cable, or a climber rappelling. There are people who do no harm from one day to the next. They spray no poisons, drop no bombs, pave no meadows. Â

In her â&#x20AC;&#x153;In Libraries I Believeâ&#x20AC;? audio project, Astoria High School student Rachel Speakman talks about how students constantly use technology but often arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t taught how to find and evaluate credible information â&#x20AC;&#x201C; a critical thinking and information literacy skill usually taught by certified school librarians.

David Mooney, of Peoria, Illinois, was interviewed for â&#x20AC;&#x153;In Libraries I Believeâ&#x20AC;? while he was traveling through Astoria on a threemonth-long trip. His audio piece focuses on the idea that libraries act as hubs of learning and activity, and they also reflect their surrounding communities.
There are deep colors in this glass of ale, and pools of liquid light on its surface like ponds in Cumbria, or the second eyelids of a seabird. There are people who glow softly through the garish tumult. They make no waves, launch no rockets, claim no fame. Â

Is this a genetic condition, to withstand the no-tax morons, beat back the dunderheads, flail the philistines with nothing more than the love of books and reading? Or is it a matter of life and death? The walnut will drop its leaves, and one of these nights the spider will freeze. Books too will die, they say. But donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t believe it.

Burgers and Fries
H
Seaside restaurant bites off more than it can chew
How many times have I said, as The Mouth, that our area seems to be lacking a great â&#x20AC;&#x153;burger joint?â&#x20AC;? Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s for that reason that I was so excited to learn about a new restaurant, Wise Guys Burgers and Fries in Seaside. With the fun name and a fun logo on their website, I was instantly charmed (I must admit, I do have an odd fondness for anything that seems mob related). I was very disappointed, then, that Wise Guys fell short of my expectations. After a lot of thought and two return visits, I can only give them a rating of two stars â&#x20AC;&#x201C; let me explain why. At Wise Guys, you order at the counter and then a server brings your food out to you. One of the items I wanted to order, the Coney Island hot dog, wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t available, which also meant another dish I wanted to try, the Coney burger, was also not an option. As an appetizer, I tried to order the clam dip, which sounded interesting, but was told that, too, was unavailable, as the cost of cream cheese had gotten too high. While I can understand all those things, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s still annoying not to be able to order what you want. An order of deep-fried mushrooms came RXW Âż UVW DQG WKH\ ORRNHG YHU\ DSSHWL]LQJ 7KH\ werenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t served with any sort of sauce, though, and on their own they were bland. I asked our server what she would recommend for a dipping sauce, and she said their â&#x20AC;&#x153;fry sauceâ&#x20AC;? would be great with them. I never got any fry sauce, though, even after I reminded her that I would like some. Again, I could overlook this if the place was busy, but there was only one other table. Most importantly, if youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re staking your entire business on the quality of your burgers, the

On a subsequent visit, I entered the restaurant during normal business hours, but there was no one there. The door was open, and I walked in and stood at the counter for a few minutes, before walking around a bit and saying â&#x20AC;&#x153;helloâ&#x20AC;? with no response. All told, I was there for probably 10 minutes, and the restaurant seemed completely deserted. I do not live in close proximity to the restaurant, so this, too, was annoying.

PRICES: All the items on the menu are less than $10 â&#x20AC;&#x201C; inexpensive, to be sure, but as I always say, any price is too high for food that isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t great. SERVICE: Our server was a bit inattentive, despite the fact that the restaurant wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t busy.

The burger patty, once again, was ODFNLQJ LQ Ă&#x20AC; DYRU DQG ZDV WRXJK DQG GU\ Sometimes new restaurant owners bite off a little more than they can chew, so to speak, when it comes to creating a menu. At Wise Guys, there are 10 different burgers, nine specialty sandwiches, and six sides/appetizers, which, I think, is too ambitious a menu for a new restaurant. I would much rather see a menu with 10 really great burgers and nothing else, save for maybe a milkshake, which I think would be a nice addition. My goal as The Mouth is to report my experiences accurately, in the interest of informing diners about what they can expect when they want to spend their hard-earned dollars on dining out. My goal is to be honest, but it is not my goal to be mean-spirited. Unfortunately, my experiences at Wise Guys Burgers and Fries did not meet my expectations, and I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t feel I can recommend it.
ATMOSPHERE: The space lacks any sort of discernible style or â&#x20AC;&#x153;theme,â&#x20AC;? and the floor was sticky and dirty. ALTERNATIVE OPTIONS: There is a Boca burger and a Portobello burger on the menu. DRINKS: Soft drinks.

ROCKAWAY BEACH â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Mark your calendars for Saturday and Sunday, June 7 and 8, and get ready for non-stop fun on Nehalem Bay. Scheduled to coincide with Free Fishing Weekend, the Nehalem Bay Crab Derby is a fundraising event for two local charities: the Mudd-Nick Foundation of Manzanita, whose mission is to broaden the horizons of deserving children in the greater Nehalem Bay and North Tillamook County area; and the Wildlife Center of the North Coast, which is dedicated to helping sick and injured marine animals return to the wild. Co-hosted by Jetty Fishery (27550 U.S. Highway 101 N.) and Killyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Brighton Marina (29200 U.S. Highway 101 N.), this event has become one of the premier summer activities for outdoor enthusiasts and families alike. The festivities start at 9 a.m. Each marina will release 26 tagged crabs on Saturday, and a $10 per ticket entry fee
is required to participate in the crab derby. All captured tagged crabs must be returned to the respective marinas, and drawings will be held to determine the prizes associated with the tag. Each marina will sponsor a cash prize of $1,000, to be donated to the charities if not won by a crabber. The drawing for the tagged crabs will be held at 5 p.m. Many other great prizes are available at this family friendly event, and there will be live music from The Exiles at 6 p.m. Since the derby date coincides with Free Fishing :HHNHQG QR VKHOO ÂżVK OLFHQVH is required.

Enjoy baroque concert at Grace Episcopal Consort of All Sorts to perform Friday
ASTORIA â&#x20AC;&#x201D; The summer music scene is about to get into full swing, so get your inner musician in tune by attending a free concert of baroque music by the Consort of All Sorts at 7 p.m. Friday, June 6 at Grace Episcopal Church, 1545 Franklin Ave. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s June, and the rhododendrons have come and gone, which means that the tenor guitars and the Astoria Music Festival will soon be here. Although not a part of the music festival, the June 6 concert by the Consort of All Sorts will feature music that you wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t hear at the festival â&#x20AC;&#x201C; namely, instrumental music IURP WKH ÂżUVW KDOI RI WKH WK century played on baroque Ă&#x20AC;XWH UHFRUGHU EDVVRRQ FHOOR and harpsichord, plus baroque arias for baritone voice and piano. Included on the program are two pieces by a composer about whom nothing is known other than his name, William Williams, and the fact that he composed several delightful sonatas for two alto recorders, harpsichord and cello. The Consort of All Sorts will perform two of his pieces. One, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Sonata in Imitation of Birds,â&#x20AC;? incorporates bird-like call-and-response passages

between two alto recorders accompanied by cello and harpsichord. His Sonata in A Minor, while written in a minor key, also has jolly bird-like passages. Vivaldi and Corelli are represented on the program in two trio sonatas for baroque Ă&#x20AC;XWH UHFRUGHU EDVVRRQ FHOlo and harpsichord. Another Italian composer from the baroque period, Giuseppe Sammartini, makes his appearance in the form of his Trio Sonata in F Major. Also on the program is a suite of dance tunes, airs and marches by Johann Christoph Schultze, a German composer
who wrote in the French style popular in the late 17th and early 18th centuries. Rounding out the program will be arias from early baroque operas performed by Astoria baritone Drew Herzig accompanied on the piano by Alexandra Myers. The Consort of All Sorts will be joined for this concert by Ray Lund, who will play harpsichord with the group, and Myers, who will play piano. Other members of the group include newcomer to Astoria Phyllis Taylor on cello, Hannelore Morgan on alto and tenor recorders, Charles 6FKZHLJHUW RQ EDURTXH Ă&#x20AC;XWH
and alto recorder, Donna Carson on bassoon, and Herzig on percussion and vocals. The name for the group comes from the title of a book by Canadian author and painter Emily Carr, who wrote a memoir of her life in Victoria, British Columbia, in the early years of the 20th century. The book is titled â&#x20AC;&#x153;The House of All Sorts,â&#x20AC;? and it chronicles the daily life at a rooming house she ran for â&#x20AC;&#x153;all sortsâ&#x20AC;? of zany characters. In the realm of music, â&#x20AC;&#x153;consortâ&#x20AC;? is an antiquated term for a group of similar or dissimilar instruments or voices, a good match for this group of musicians, and a name that allows for the addition of other instruments as they are needed. The name also leaves open the possibility of exploring music from other periods in addition to the baroque. The concert is free, and donations will be solicited to help support the Food Pantry operated by the Grace Episcopal Church. Families with children are always welcome at the concerts.
