This community stroll through the woods is fun and family friendly, with trails suited to all ages. “You see art in a way you might not otherwise,â€? says Davis. “There is some interactive art, but mostly it’s to walk and experience and take it all in.â€? The hike takes an hour and a half and Davis says, “It’s a great way to spend an afternoon.â€? The route has been changed somewhat this year to make it more accessible. Beginning at the Fort Clatsop Visitor Center Picnic Area, event goers can choose between a shorter 1.5-mile walk near the center or the full 3-mile hike with a volunteer guide on the Kwis Kwis Trail loop.

Last year, 20 artists participated, creating music, dance, visual arts, and installations for the 100 or so people who came for the experience. Visitors would hike along the trail and suddenly there would be a paper mâchĂŠ unicorn, or a gnome village, or someone singing or dancing. Artist Renia Fick created a large mushroom and installed it above WKH WUDLO 6WULQJV UHSUHVHQWLQJ WKH mushroom mycelium ran into the forest; when a string was plucked a distant bell would ring.

He says, “A lot of my drive in doing this was getting people into nature, and feeling the experience of the power of the forest and how it can bring us into our own life force.�

Delve into the art/hike experience In Their Footsteps provides an intro to Sunday in the Park with Art event

ASTORIA — The last In Their Footsteps lecture of the season will take place at 1 p.m. Sunday, May 15 at the Fort Clatsop Visitor Center. Marco Davis will give the talk “Connectivity Through Art and Nature: The Art/Hike Experience.� Davis, an Astoria native, has been inspired by the beauty and mystery of local forests his whole life. A few years ago, the Kwis Kwis

Trail at Lewis and Clark National Historical Park began to speak to him and a vision was planted in his mind. He started a conversation with park staff about the potential of having an art/hike experience on the trail. Davis organized the SDUNœV ¿UVW 6XQGD\ LQ WKH Park with Art event and invited his artist friends to join. On Sept. 20, they shared their art with the community on the Kwis Kwis Trail as people hiked the 3-mile loop taking in the art, music and dance and the beauty of the natural area. Davis’ talk will focus on

Find ‘Magic in the Kitchen’ in Rosburg Annual Spring Tea and Luncheon set May 15 with raffle and silent auction ROSBURG, Wash. — Grays River Methodist Church Friendship Circle will host its annual Spring Tea and Luncheon on Sunday, May 15. Doors will open at 11:30 a.m. at the Rosburg Community Hall, and lunch will begin at 12:30 p.m. 4-H youths will again be the servers. This year’s theme is “Magic in the Kitchen,� with comedian and magician Steve Hamilton as the entertainment. The program will be about 20 to 25 minutes long and will appeal to both adults and children. Children are welcome to attend but must be accompanied by an adult. The annual tea is known as a fun mother-daughter activity. A display com-

prised of unusual kitchen antiquities, aprons and memorable cookbooks will provide topics of conversation. To complement the theme, Appelo Archives Center will be selling Donna Gatens-Klint’s book “The Magic in the Backwoods Kitchen,� which is filled with recipes, photos and stories from Naselle through Grays River in the Willapa Hills of southwest Washington. There will be the usual pick-your-own-prize raffle for $1 each and a silent auction. The raffle will be held all throughout the luncheon rather than just at the end of the event. The silent auction will continue throughout the afternoon. Proceeds from the silent auction will be donated to the West End Food Bank. Suggested donation at the door is $8 per person. Children under age 12 are $5. For more information, call 360-465-2740 or 360484-7749.

how the art-hike is a way for people to enjoy nature and get some exercise while experiencing art in a way less travelled. Part of the “magic� of this event is the transitory aspect of the art, which leaves no trace along the trail afterwards. Both artists and hikers enjoyed the September event so much that the second Sunday in the Park with Art will begin right after Davis’ talk, and the audience is welcome to join the hike. “Sunday in the Park with Art is Fort Clatsop’s offering of a peek into the mind of a park user,� says Davis.

“Comparing Sunday in the Park with Art as a gallery show would be mistaken; the visual and auditory experiences emerge only after large gaps of quiet and unadorned trail. The trail user is therefore still provided with mostly the sights and sounds of nature.� In Their Footsteps is a free monthly speaker series sponsored by the Lewis & Clark National Park Association and the park. The program is held in the Netul River Room of Fort Clatsop’s Visitor Center and is free of charge. For more information, call the park at 503-861-2471.

Hemlock St. The free event is set for 2 p.m. Saturday, May 14; it will be the last event for the 2015-16 season.

The book has been described as richly detailed, fast-paced and well-researched. One reviewer commented that “con-

Shining a light on America’s darkest history, the story is a good old-fashioned historical novel packed with drama, intrigue, love, loss, and, most of all, the resilience of a remarkable heroine — a story of how ordinary people can do remarkable things.

Photo exhibit traces pioneer travels Great White Tail Run Infrared prints follow journeys of James G. Swan, flint knappers show off skills ILWACO, Wash. — The Columbia Pacific Heritage Museum presents the special exhibition “Swan’s Land: Photographs by Rich Bergeman.” There will be an opening reception from 5 to 7 p.m. Friday May 13. The exhibition will be on view through July 13. In 2015, while an artist in residence at Willapa Bay AiR in Oysterville, photographer Rich Bergeman retraced the travels of Washington pioneer James G. Swan. A native of Ohio and an Oregonian since 1976, Bergeman has been a writer, editor and educator during his journalistic career, and an exhibiting fine art photographer for the past 30 years. Much of that time has been devoted to exploring the fringes of the Pacific Northwest in search of forgotten histories and vanishing places. Using an infrared digital camera, Bergeman photographed several of the sites frequented by Swan, a celebrated adventurer who lived on Willapa Bay (then known as Shoalwater Bay) in the middle of the 1800s. Using Swan’s 1857 book “The Northwest Coast; Or, Three Years’ residence in Washington Territory” as his guide, Bergeman photographed many of the places described by Swan. The exhibit features more than 20 black-andwhite infrared prints taken “from the top of the Bay to the mouth of the Columbia” as well as other historically significant sites on the Long

Beach Peninsula and the Washington shore of the Columbia River. One reason Bergeman

chose to photograph the Swan project with an infrared camera is that the landscape around Willapa Bay

is dominated by water and sky, and infrared renders such scenes more dramatically than traditional blackand-white. Another, and more whimsical reason, he said, “is that when on the trail of a ghost, it seems appropriate to use a medium that captures what is, essentially, invisible light.” In addition to the exhibition “Swan’s Land: Photographs by Rich Bergeman,” the museum will present a special installation, “Beyond the Point: Contemporary Knapping and the Object.” Making stone tools is among the oldest forms of artistic creation and the craft of flint knapping can become art of the highest level. Contemporary flint knappers are artists who use traditional techniques to go beyond the point to create objects of great craftsmanship and form. Aaron Webster, a Washington State Park’s Interpreter, is one of these artists. With his series of fish sculptures, viewers can see how Webster’s skill allows the form of the fish to emerge from the obsidian with a shimmering, undulating surface that is reminiscent of light reflecting off water. Among the other artists featured in “Beyond the Point” will be Emory Coons, Goode Jones, “Woody” Woodside and the Danish artist Sofus Stenak. All bring new forms to light with this ancient technique. The Columbia Pacific Heritage Museum thanks the Port of Peninsula for their sponsorship of this exhibition. Columbia Pacific Heritage Museum is located at 115 S.E. Lake St. For more information, call 360-642-3446 or visit www.columbiapacificheriatgemuseum.org

14 ASTORIA — Downtown merchants and galleries will hold Astoria’s Second Saturday Art Walk from 5 to 8 p.m. Saturday, May 14. Meet artists and mingle with fellow art lovers while enjoying refreshments and new exhibits.

ART BUSINESSES 1. Imogen Gallery 240 11th St. Imogen Gallery presents a dual exhibition with Kim Hamblin and Christopher Wagner, two artists linked by a background in farming and animal husbandry. Hamblin gains inspiration for imagery from her lifelong love of the sciences. The focal point of her work is not only use of imagery, but the delicateness of pattern revealed in each paper cut; painted surface and nails further enhance pattern and texture. Wagner, a sculptor, also focuses on animal imagery within his work. With a

strong sense of whimsy balanced with irony, Wagner brings his hand-carved reclaimed wood pieces that depict the close relationship between man and animal. Utilizing milk paint he brings his figures and animals to life, adding a sense of play to his cast of characters. 2. RiverSea Gallery 1160 Commercial St. Festivities begin 3 to 6 p.m. with a jewelry trunk show featuring two regional designer jewelers. Judith Altruda from Tokeland, Washington, brings a selection inspired by the ancient deities of journeys and crossroads.

Lucy Barna is a recent transplant to Manzanita via Santa Fe, and brings lively contemporary jewelry inspired by springtime, renewal and growth. “East of West” is an exhibition of surreal paintings by Seattle artist Jeff Mihalyo. With a theme of the meeting and melding of Eastern and Western cultures in our times, the works in this show are inspired by his travels in faraway lands intermingled with the wild otherworld of his imagination. 3. Old Town Framing 1287 Commercial St. Scratchboard artist Steve DeLoe explores the world of opposites using light as dark and dark as light.

5. KALA 1017 Marine Drive Commercial fisherman and painter Jason Scribner’s narrative paintings born of his summers fishing in Bristol Bay come to vivid life on reclaimed wood. His uncanny crafting turns wood grain into sea and sky. Also view Eddie Morgan’s eccentric portraits, Sid Deluca’s car collage, and Zac Caswell’s abstract cosmic explosions. Art is one view from 6 to 8 p.m., followed by a concert of high-energy dance music by Nehalem Valley All Stars for ages 21 and over.

4. Tempo Gallery 1271 Commercial St. Tempo Gallery will feature work by new member and fabric artist Alexandra Myers. She creates modern art quilts using machine piecing and free-motion quilting, and she often adds hand stitching and bead embellishment. “I love line drawings and am experimenting with using the sewing machine as my ‘pencil’ to draw on the fabric,” she says. “I am currently working mostly with abstract ideas

6. Astoria Art Loft 106 Third St. Acclaimed painter and teacher Carl Dalio will be the featured artist from 3 to 6 p.m. Dalio is well known for his dynamic watercolor compositions filled with light-energized color. His many trips abroad bring emotional depth to the subjects of his painting. Lynne Johnson will share the limelight; she has been working with local artists in the class Create with Whatever to produce unusual and innovating collages.

Spring is supposed to be about rebirth and renewal. What better place to embrace that notion than with your garage or attic? Renew that space, and clean it out. The problem is, you don’t realize how much stuff you accumulate over the years. We eagerly pull out boxes and bags from storage and instantly feel a little overwhelmed. Inevitably, we shove it all back to its darkened recesses and wash our hands of the whole effort. “Maybe next year,” is our annual mantra. Admitting we need help is supposedly a sign of maturity, so when spring rears its demanding head, take a different tack: Donate locally. The North Coast is brimming with charitable organizations that need and want your stuff and will happily accept it without complaint or judgment.

Deja Vu Thrift Store in downtown Astoria sells clothes and other items.

Helping others start over

Deja Vu Thrift Store & Boutique in downtown Astoria brims with high-end clothing, shoes, handbags, jewelry and furniture. Well-loved by the community, Deja Vu has been voted Best Thrift Store in Coast Weekend’s annual Readers’ Choice Awards for nine years straight — as long as the contest has been going on. “We have a lot of regulars, locally and from out of town,” says Willow Creel, Deja Vu’s manager. But the store is at the forefront of a much more vital endeavor; all of its revenue directly supports The Harbor, a community agency that

provides intervention, recovery and support to survivors of domestic violence, sexual assault and stalking. Deja Vu consists of an upstairs retail section that is open to the general public and a downstairs voucher room speci¿cally designed to assist domestic abuse survivors. “The downstairs has items like pots, pans and bedding,” Creel says. “Things that help survivors get out of a bad situation and start over.” Creel says the store generally needs “everything,” but there are several items usually in high demand and short supply. “We al-

ways need nice furniture and clothing,” she says. “Plus-size clothing is especially hard to come by.” While women’s and baby clothing is abundant, casual men’s clothing and children’s clothing for ages 5 to 14 are scarcer and in demand. Creel cautions that there are a few items Deja Vu can’t accept. That includes mattresses, infant car seats, and baby strollers, items that are dif¿cult to clean. She adds that electronics such as computers and televisions that aren’t Àat screen can be taken to the dump for no charge. While the store can always use items, Creel is grateful for the constant support it receives from the community. She adds that nearly everyone who shops or donates understands that they are doing their part to create a safer environment for others in need. “Our shoppers are very aware of what we do here,” she says.

Embracing potential

Coast Rehabilitation Services helps individuals embrace their potential. A private nonpro¿t organization that supports more than 120 individuals with developmental disabilities in Clatsop and Multnomah Counties in Oregon and Paci¿c County in Washington, CRS prepares people to celebrate themselves as individuals, community members and citizens. That includes the CRS Thrift Store on Seventh Street in Astoria, which does double duty as a retail center for the general pubic and a training ground for 13 employees. Darin Hocking, manager of the thrift store, says the skills learned on the job by his employees aid in getting them into the community. “They do all the work here,” he says. “Everything from tagging and sorting items to helping customers and working the register.” Hocking says the Christmas season and spring are generally the busiest for donations,

and the thrift store has a steady stream of loyal shoppers year-round. The thrift store accepts most donations big and small, including books, furniture, clothing and appliances — though as with Deja Vu, no baby strollers or car seats. “We’ll take anything that we’re able to resell,â€? Hocking says. Items most needed are small appliances such as toasters and microwaves, though Hocking admits that it’s hard to turn things away. “This community is very generous and extremely receptive to the people I employ,â€? he says. “That’s the best part of this for me.â€? Another facet of the thrift store is helping the community at large. To that end, CRS partners with Clatsop Community Action to provide 15 vouchers in the amount of 10 dollars each month to be redeemed at the thrift store by those most in need. Hocking adds that not only do his employHHV DQG VKRSSHUV EHQHÂżW IURP WKH WKULIW VWRUH but also the community at large. “What comes here stays in this community,â€? he says.

14 // COASTWEEKEND.COM Coast Weekend’s local restaurant review

Seaside Thai restaurant cranks out reliable food with value Review and photos by MOUTH OF THE COLUMBIA

A

At the beginning of the year, there were no Thai restaurants in South County. Now there are two. Manzanita’s A Mighty Thai opened its doors in January. Seaside’s Yellow Curry, meanwhile, started serving in mid-March. Unlike Mighty Thai, Yellow Curry isn’t the venture of firsttime restauranteurs. Yellow Curry’s owner operates two similar businesses in Beaverton: Green Curry and Red Curry. The menus are relatively similar, which means the newest outpost hit the ground running. My first visit to the Seaside location came on a Friday evening. The restaurant, located at the mouth of Broadway’s tourist vortex, is in the building that once upon a time housed Little Bayou, and many failed endeavors since. The space has since been halved. It has six or seven tables, bright yellow walls, and a kind of non-denominational, left-over hodgepodge of decor. The placemats, for instance, feature a mustachioed, Italian chef. It’s high-ceilinged, bright and uncluttered. And on this day it was busy. Most of the tables were taken, and to-go orders came and went. The lone server seemed a tad overwhelmed but remained attentive and effusive. The kitchen, meanwhile, didn’t bat an eye. It cranked out dishes with impressive speed. I began with the Coconut Shrimp ($8.95), which came stacked like logs beside a bed of lettuce, carrots and an orange slice. The shrimp were oddly long and thin, with a light crust, flecked with flakes of coconut offering a satisfying crunch. The oblong shape upped the breading ratio, and for nearly nine dollars it felt pricey. The accompanying sweet and sour sauce was much sweeter than it was sour, and I asked for some hot sauce to bal-

ance it. It came in a tiny cup — a bit of oil, a squirt of sriracha and a pinch of thick, minced red and green chili paste. I tried a dab of the paste and immediately I was panting and welling up. The peak arrived a few minutes later. Indeed, the paste — with a base of Thai chilies — was a hair shy of nuclear. Like many of the dishes on the menu, the Yellow Curry ($10.95 with chicken) was offered on a spice scale from one to five. I went with a two, and that’s what I received: a subtle, back-of-thethroat tingle. Covering hunks of buttery potatoes, carrots and onions, the yellow curry sauce was creamy, coconutty and rich. The spicing was deep, profound and ancient. It made me want to lick the plate. The Garlic Supreme ($10.95 with beef) lacked that depth and nuance. A stir fry in a thin, salty garlic sauce, it was prepared minimally. While I appreciated the way the vegetables were lightly cooked, their essence and structure maintained, the dish paled in the curry’s long shadow. On the spice scale, I ordered this dish at a three, and it went up like a brush fire. To be fair, the server warned me: This one used the near-nuclear paste, and the curries were on a different spice scale. But why have different scales? Isn’t relativity the whole point? On my second trip, I had to fight the compunction to order more curry, and eventually I found a roundabout way to do so. In the meantime, my companion inquired about drinks — specifically, had they any wine or beer? “We do healthy food,” the server said. So, in place of spirits we had an Iced Coffee and a Thai Iced Tea ($2 apiece), each of which were staggeringly, lip-smackingly sweetened. More welcome, each was also quite stiff, finishing with a bite of herby tea or bitter coffee after the sugar dissipated.

The Thai iced tea and iced coffee drinks were staggeringly sweetened but also full of stiff tea and coffee flavor.

Moments later, our appetizer, the Seaside Stickers ($7.95), popped out. Like the shrimp, the six pot stickers had a nice, not too oily, deep-fried crust. While they appeared to be made inhouse, they could’ve been packed fuller. And, like the shrimp, the price felt high — out of line with the rest of the menu, where full, reasonably-sized entrées were just a few dollars more. Of the noodle dishes we had the Pad Thai ($10.95 with chicken). With rice noodles that were rather chewy, it was as the dish generally is: familiar and filling. Of the “Signature Dishes,” the Angry Catfish ($15.95) was well-presented. In a lake of the grand curry sauce, beside a bed of lettuce, lightly steamed carrots and broccoli, was an island of fried catfish topped with kiffir leaves, lemongrass and a dollop of what I think was coconut ice cream. Despite resting in the liquid, the catfish breading retained its crunch throughout the meal. The fish was light and clean, though the herbs were a bit dry. It was a dish reaching for elegance, but blue collar at heart. Indeed, Yellow Curry is comfortably casual — perhaps better suited for lunch or an easy dinner than a fancy date. (Lunch, which is available 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. weekdays except Wednesday, features slightly lower prices and an abridged menu.) Compared to A Mighty Thai, Yellow Curry provides a better

value, a more reliable, well-oiled kitchen, and quick turnaround. Mighty Thai offers a more cozy and romantic ambiance, presentation, a full bar and some more upscale items. Indeed, each has its own drawbacks and allure. Both, though, are important additions to the region’s dining scene, and an indication that, yes, we crave more than just burgers and fish and chips. It’s a wide world out there, and we’re hungry for it.

Bust broom this May Join North Coast Land Conservancy, remove invasive Scotch broom

WARRENTON — North Coast North Coast Land Conservancy is seeking volunteers to clear Scotch broom from its Reed Ranch Habitat Reserve from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. Wednesday, May 18. Each May, NCLC works

to remove invasive Scotch broom from its properties and encourages its neighbors on the Oregon Coast to do the same. This year the conservancy’s focus is on the coastal prairie and Neacoxie Wildlife Corridor. On May 18, NCLC will be targeting the remaining Scotch broom missed by the forestry mulcher that removed large swaths of broom last winter from the steeper dune slopes

at 117-acre Reed Ranch, west of Cullaby Lake. Anyone interested in volunteering is asked to contact NCLC Stewardship Director Melissa Reich at 503-738-9126 or melissar@ nclctrust.org for more details or directions. Volunteers should wear sturdy boots and gloves and bring drinking water and lunch. Property owners are encouraged to remove Scotch broom and other invasive

LONG BEACH, Wash. — Country/folk singer-songwriter Dan Weber will perform at 7 p.m. Saturday, May 14 at the Peninsula Arts Center. An ex-park ranger, Weber follows the tradition of songwriting legends by entertaining audiences with energetic

performances and telling hilarious, true stories from the many roads he’s traveled. Described as “the classic mid-life overnight sensation,” Weber began performing later in life at age 40. Songs from his debut CD “Ash and Bone” received accolades from American Songwriter Magazine and the Great American Songwriting Contest; the U.K.’s Maverick Magazine said: “4

Stars: Has you hanging on to every word. That’s the touch of a true master craftsman songwriter, quite indispensable.” A gifted storyteller and performer, Weber won an award at the 2015 Walnut Valley Festival NewSong contest in Kansas for his tribute to Woody Guthrie on his album “Oh Woody,” which rose to No. 2 on the folk charts. He also won third place in the prestigious

Knappa play examines conflict in Middle East ASTORIA — Knappa High School will present “Stone Girls Dreaming,” at 7 p.m. Saturday, May 14 at Clatsop Community College’s Performing Arts Center. The play, by Lisa Railsback, tells the story of two girls, one Palestinian and one Israeli, who are caught in the throes of the second intifada, a Palestinian uprising against Israel in the 2000s. Sophie Hansen will perform as the Palestinian character, and Kacie Klein will act as the Israeli girl.

Proceeds will bene¿t the Immigrant and Refugee Community Organization, which promotes the integration of refugees and immigrants into a self-suf¿cient, healthy, inclusive, multi-ethnic society. To prepare for the play, students from Knappa visited David Douglas High School in Portland and met with some refugee high schoolers. The Performing Arts Center is located at 588 16th St. Admission is free, with a suggested donation of $10.

Loch Lomond will perform May 14 at the Sou’Wester Lodge.

Loch Lomond brings indie rock to Seaview SEAVIEW, Wash. — The Sou’Wester Lodge will host Portland band Loch Lomond for a performance at 8 p.m. Saturday, May 14. In addition to employing notable visceral and expert melodic acrobatics, the coed sextet of Loch Lomond distinctly incorporates the use of vibraphone, piano, guitars, mellotron, clarinet, Àute, drums, bass and other

sonic treatments to foil the arresting voice of lead singer/multi-instrumentalist Ritchie Young. Young is able to switch from high-pitched fragility to alto thunder in the turn of a phrase, yet he knows the power of restraint, saving vocal tornadoes for emotional apexes buoyed by string swells and moving arrangements.

GEARHART — Trail’s End Art Association will offer a foraging basketry workshop with Kathy Karbo from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday, Mary 21. No experience is needed, and all materials will be provided. Karbo brings her energy, creativity, experience and skill as an instructor to each learning opportunity. She got started in basketry when she lived in Montclair, New Jersey. A docent at the Israel Crane House, she studied colonial crafts, including basketry. With expert help, she began making baskets. The experience changed Karbo’s life, and she found herself weaving up to 16 hours a day. Foraging baskets grow from long traditions of basket making. During the workshop, participants will focus on structure and technique to create unconventional versions of traditional gathering baskets. Basket makers will be free to explore embellishment, texture, color and mark to make the

creation their own. Using a wide variety of materials that can include cardboard, handmade and laminated papers, recycled metals, wire, beads, leather and found objects, participants can create versatile baskets. The results can become dried flower holders, gifts or whatever the basket maker determines. To register, email janem270@gmail.com. The cost for the workshop will be $50 for Trail’s End members and $55 for non-members. Plan to bring a sack lunch or shop in nearby Gearhart for carry out items.

A GLIMPSE INSIDE

Mango Rita

Sea Gypsy Gifts

By RYAN HUME

Just up the street from Haystack Rock on a recent sunny Saturday afternoon, there was plenty of bustle inside Cannon Beach Hardware & Public House — though this crowd seemed to be searching out sustenance and the type of screwdriver that is neither standard nor Phillips. The Screw & Brew, as it is colloquially known, isn’t just a popular destination with locals and tourists alike because of its quirky, relaxed atmosphere and the novelty of its invention, but also because the small kitchen and bar are turning out a menu of scratch-made food and cocktails as well as plenty of pints. You’re not going to find house-made pastrami and sour mix at Home Depot, no matter how hard you try. And yes, the Screw & Brew may be the only coastal hardware store proud to serve up both Rusty Nails and saltwater-resistant fasteners. So, sure, there may be two floors of home improvement, gardening and plumbing supplies, but it’s what’s behind the bar that counts. Here you’ll find a rotating supply of infused spirits made in-house that can shake the dust off any old margarita or Mary. More often than not, infusers confuse the word “fruity” for “sugary” and the Screw & Brew’s subtle dry infusions are a nice reminder that those two words are not synonymous.

By MATT LOVE

This is not a recipe for a mango margarita. You can put away your blender and your Slurpee straw. This is a recipe for a classic margarita, balanced on the edge of tart and citrus forward, accompanied on the backend by a smack of mango, that juicy stone fruit that takes salt and pepper so well. To get it right, make your own sour mix, like DK does at the Screw & Brew. “It makes all the difference,” he said. Ingredients: 1.5 ounces mango-infused tequila* ¼ ounce orange liqueur, such as Triple Sec or Grand Marnier 1 teaspoon agave syrup (or simple syrup) 1 ounce sour mix Ice Orange wheel Lime wedge Coarse salt

2911 M 2911 Marine arine i Dr Dr #B Astoria, OR 97103 503 791-2466

Directions: Squeak a lime wedge around the rim of a Mason jar, highball or other cocktail glass and dip the rim into the salt. Add ice and then stir in all of the liquid ingredients. Finish by squeezing out the juice of the orange and the lime before depositing what’s left of the citrus into the glass. *The Screw & Brew uses Luna Azul tequila for its infusions, though any moderately priced silver tequila will do. Add some peeled and chopped up mangos and the tequila to an air-tight container and let sit in a cool, dark place or in the back of the fridge for five days or so before straining. —Recipe courtesy of David Kinhan, bar manager of Cannon Beach Hardware & Public House Starting May 1st: Mon-Sat 10 am - 8 pm Sun 12 Noon - 6 pm

I asked Naomi Pena, Astoria’s premier mermaid costumer and owner of Sea Gypsy Gifts on Commercial Street, if any tourist couples ever bought a mermaid outfit when they came into the shop or at her booth at the Astoria Sunday Market. “Sure,” she said, kind of winking, certainly smiling. “It happens all the time.” It does? That surprised me. I tried picturing the mermaid role-playing scene unfolding in a room at the Cannery Pier Hotel or Lamplighter Motel or maybe a tent at Fort Stevens State Park. I wasn’t seeing it. This is a gillnetting and vaping town to me.

Sea Gypsy Gifts in Astoria sells mermaid costumes. But Astoria is changing. You can feel it in the air. “To spice things up?” I asked. “Sure,” said Naomi. “Why not?” Why not indeed? What happens in Astoria stays in Astoria.

That goes for mermaids, too. This Prohibition-era town was once Capitol Sin City with gambling, booze, drugs, brothels and shanghaiing. Maybe it’s on the way back. I hope so. A mermaid costume craze would really spice up the old brand. Naomi reckons she’s sold close to a thousand mermaid costumes in the last decade. That has to be a record in Oregon. Halloween is the hot season, but why not get one for the summer and surprise that special someone or first date? Imagine the look on that person’s face when you unveil the costume in a dark Chinese restaurant lounge. Why not indeed? Head down to Sea Gypsy Gifts, and Naomi will set you up in style.
