SEASIDE — The Friends of the Seaside Library will host local herbalist Brooke Duling, who will speak about “Making Herbal Tinctures from Wild and Gardened Plants.” The event will begin at 1 p.m. Saturday, May 11, and it will be held in the Community Room. Duling will have some of her herbal tinctures on hand and for sale. Duling is an organic farmer and herbalist who trained at the Elderberry School of Botanical Medicine in Portland. She will focus on making herbal tinctures from freshly harvested medicinal plants, identifying medicinal herbs and preparing herbal teas, oils and salves. Duling will also speak on protecting and preserving at-risk and endangered plants used in herbal medicine, through ethical wildcrafting. This will be a hands-on demonstration where participants will have an opportunity to help make a fresh stinging nettle tincture. Duling graduated from Astoria High School in 2003 and holds a bachelor’s degree in environmental philosophy and policy from Wesleyan University

I don’t know about you, but for me, May is turning out to be a wonderful month so far. The warm, glorious weather we’ve been enjoying shows off the Columbia-Pacific region to its best advantage. It’s impossible to stay indoors; the sunshine, blue water and vibrant greenery beckon to be explored. This past weekend I had the opportunity to do just that. Friday evening I itched to get outside, so I headed west on the Astoria Riverwalk through the downtown to Uniontown. I normally walk east on the Riverwalk toward Alderbrook, so it was a new experience to pass port buildings and pause beneath the massive, sturdy legs of the Astoria Bridge. I could see a cruise ship near the Cannery Pier hotel, brilliantly white in the sunlight. I also visited the lovely Maritime Memorial Park on my walk (see Page 4 for more about the memorial). Saturday I ventured out to Fort Stevens State Park, exploring Trestle Bay for the first time. My friend and I left the car at Parking Lot D at the end of Jetty Road. After a short walk through
the trees (and blooming Scotch Broom), there is a small wildlife viewpoint that overlooks Trestle Bay. The ruins of the wooden trestle in question stretch across the far side of the bay (you can see it up close from Jetty Road), the remains of a railroad that helped construct the jetty at the turn of the 20th century. The tide was low, so we journeyed out on the silty sand and enjoyed the hot sun, warm breeze and the calls of birds from across the bay. Saturday evening I went with some friends out to Naselle, Wash. I hadn’t been to that part
of Washington since last summer, and I forgot what a lovely drive it is – the highway is often right on the river’s edge, and the view of the water was spectacular. We spent the evening eating our fill of fire-roasted oysters, watching my friend’s chickens go to roost, and enjoying good company. I spent all day Sunday in Cannon Beach. After a delicious lunch at Warren House Pub, my friends and I went on a leisurely walk on the beach until we hit the foot of Haystack Rock. The tide was low, and I spotted some
green anemones, a shy sea star or two, and a small crab. The water at the rock’s base was a gorgeous medley of different blues: bright sky, deep royal and greenish turquoise. We finished the evening by watching the fiery orange sun slowly set into a haze of soft pastel sky and the icy baby blue of the ocean: the perfect ending to a beautiful weekend here on the North Coast.

Coastal Life Story and photos by LYNETTE RAE McADAMS
Rae Goforth, Astoria resident and "godmother" to the Maritime Memorial Park, points to the engraved name of Fred Lindstrom, a City Parks director who was among the many who helped bring the idea for the memorial to fruition 20 years ago.
Astoria's Maritime Memorial Park is located at 10 Bay St. and Marine Drive, under the Astoria-Megler Bridge. Established in 1993, the memorial serves to commemorate the men and women whose lives were intimately connected to maritime activities.
The ebb and flow of memory Astoria’s Maritime Memorial Park
I
In the heart of historic Uniontown, set back from the bustle of everyday life, a small city park whispers one of our region’s most meaningful sentiments. Here beneath the mammoth southern footing of the Astoria-Megler Bridge, nestled serenely along the river’s edge, a curving concrete monument rises gracefully up through unexpected green space, offering its black granite walls as steadfast witness to the engraved names of 883 men and women who tied their lives inextricably – often fatally – in service to our local waters. A culmination of years of hard work and grassroots dedication, the Maritime Memorial Park exists today as a showcase for beauty and quiet reflection, established to honor the memory of the dead. But thinking back almost 30 years, Uniontown resident Rae Goforth, hailed by many as “godmother” to the park, remembers the scene differently. “It was a dump,” she says. “Literally.” Owned (but untended) by the state of Oregon, the riverside space behind Goforth’s popular family restaurant, The Fiddler’s Green (later, Cafe Uniontown), was scattered with the shells of abandoned cars and 4 | May 9, 2013 | coastweekend.com
rusting boats – a collection ground for anything unwanted. Weary of the mess and true to her name, Goforth decided to take action. “I have a big mouth,” the 84-year-old says, laughing, recalling the days when no one would accept responsibility for the grounds, “and I tend to keep it open.” Undeterred by bureaucratic hurdles, Goforth eventually secured a lease from the state for the 200-foot space, and, one by one, began acquiring titles to

the vehicles ($2 each) so she could dispose of them properly. Soon, the project was complete, and the derelict location was restored to its natural beauty. But as time would reveal, the happy ending to this story was, in fact, only an opening chapter. During the late 1980s, beset with the grief of having lost a son at sea, a mourning mother peti-
tioned the city for a space in which to remember her child. Recognizing that her voice was only one of many, the city formed a group to explore opportunities for a community memorial. “We looked at lots of sites,” says Goforth, who has served on the Maritime Memorial Committee since its inception, “but this spot, where decades of fisherman launched their boats, seemed to us the perfect place.” With a $30,000 state land grant, along with matching local funds and private donations, the memorial was consecrated in 1993, having two walls in place and a collection of names to fill the first granite panels. In the years since, more names have followed (averaging 40 per year) and the memorial, now with four walls and an adjacent park replete with picnic grounds, has grown and evolved to meet the changing needs of the community it nourishes. “There were so many who made this happen,” Goforth acknowledges proudly. “City officials, parks workers, business owners, families, even the city’s homeless – who used to guard the memorial from nighttime vandals – all have lent their hands throughout the years.” For a space that honors so many people, from so many different paths, such a melting pot of effort seems only fitting. “It’s true this is a place for those ‘lost’ at sea,” Goforth explains, “but we decided in the beginning that it

wouldn’t be exclusive. If you lived your life in connection to these waters – as a fisherman, as a bar pilot, as a boatbuilder, as a cannery worker, or even as a cook for cannery workers – this wall will welcome you. In 20 years, we’ve never denied anyone.” And so a monument that found its beginnings in death, turns out in the end, to be all about life. In celebration of that life, the Uniontown Association is pleased to announce its annual Memorial Day service at the Maritime Memorial Park, at 3 p.m., Monday, May 27. Throughout this moving, hour-long ceremony, all the names that grace the granite walls will be read aloud, and friends and family of the deceased will be invited to participate in their remembrance. One by one, they’ll walk a narrow bridge toward the fragile remnants of a long-abandoned pier, passing beneath a symbolic broken archway on their way to river’s edge. There, they’ll toss off flowers, in memory, in honor and in celebration of their loved ones – gone but not forgotten – the sons and daughters of a way of life, shaped by river and sea, forever wedded to the water.

Adapted by James Roose-Evans from the book by Helene Hanff.

Betty and the Boy.– SUBMITTED PHOTO
Fort George Brewery Betty and the Boy to perform Sunday ASTORIA — Betty and the Boy defy simple categorization. Though the quintet’s stringladen melodies occasionally anchor them in the territories of folk, bluegrass, or minimalist rock, they’re more at home in the cracks in-between. It’s from these deeper, often darker, places where Betty Jaeger’s voice reaches up, takes you by the hand, and invites you along for the ride – a difficult offer to refuse. Betty is a self-taught vocal-
ist from Kalispell, Mont., and writes a majority of the group’s more down-tempo and melodramatic melodies. Betty, the daughter of an English professor, was groomed to be the captivating vocalist and songwriter she has become. Her own lyrics are replete with animal and nature imagery, but it’s in a fairytale more in the fashion of Grimm than Disney, with minimalistic guitar styling to accompany them. After meeting Josh Harvey, a self-taught multi-instru-

Journalist, art critic Richard Speer comes to Astoria
R
Richard Speer is an outrageous man-abouttown, a dilettante, a dabbler in this and that – or so it seems if you visit his website (www.richard speer.com). But talk with Speer, and it soon becomes apparent that he is a serious person. And what he is serious about is art. “It’s true, I like to wear ruffled shirts and ’70s tuxedos to openings, but my opinions are presented in a forceful and informed way, a way that’s entertaining,” he says. Speer has been the visual arts critic for Portland’s alternative Willamette Week since 2002. Writing for this Pulitzer Prize-winning publication has been a privilege, he says. “One’s voice as a writer and one’s persona is given much wider latitude,” Speer says, and adds, “I’ve never been censored.” Speer has also written for the Chicago Tribune and the Los Angeles Times, among others, he’s a contributor to The Huffington Post, and he’s written short fiction and has a novel coming out. The list goes on, but what Speer is best known for is his critically acclaimed biography of the outsider artist, “Matt Lamb: The Art of Success.” Speer’s voice is heard on the national scene, and he is coming to Astoria tomorrow for a lecture and several other events at local art galleries – a sign that the arts are becoming more important to Astoria both intellectually and economically. The art galleries of Astoria showcase, for the most part, Northwest artists, and Speer finds that “Northwest art has become much better appreciated
in the past 10 or 20 years.” It is in large part, he says, due to “top caliber” shows at galleries throughout our region that the Northwest “has gone from being dismissed as a cultural backwater to being more respected” both nationally and internationally. Northwest art “has become more than seascapes, Mt. Hood and Multnomah Falls,” Speer says. “There is a diversity of production by artists in the area, and they are engaging the same subjects as other artists around the world.” Friday’s Speer events will begin at 3 p.m. with an interview by Carol Newman on KMUN’s “Arts Live and Local” and continue with a cocktail reception at Imogen Gallery from 5 to 6 p.m. The main event will be a 6:30 p.m. lecture at KALA followed by a “Post Lecture Party/Grazing Dinner” at RiverSea Gallery. Speer’s lecture at KALA will deal with three subjects. The first is his perspective as an art critic on the ebb and flow of the Portland art scene and the positives and negatives of that scene over the past decade. Next he will speak about New York minimalist abstract painter Peter Halley, known for his dayglo paintings, with whom Speer is involved in an interview project. Speer became familiar with Halley and Matt Lamb as a result of his writing for national publications, and his final subject for Friday evening will be the work of the late Matt Lamb. Speer has just finished updating his book on Lamb for an eedition, and he continues to blog about Lamb’s life
Schedule of events – Friday, May 10 3 p.m. – Richard Speer on KMUN’s “Arts Live and Local” with Carol Newman, 91.9 FM 5 to 5:45 p.m. – Cocktail reception at Imogen Gallery, 240 11th St., Astoria, 503-468-0619 5:45 to 6:20 p.m. – Meet and greet at LightBox Photographic Gallery, 1045 Marine Drive 6:30 to 7:30 p.m. – Lecture by Richard Speer at KALA, 1017 Marine Drive, Astoria, 503-440-3007 7:45 p.m. – Post Lecture Party/Grazing Dinner at RiverSea Gallery, 1160 Commercial St., Astoria, 503-325-1270

work and philosophy. The two artists were different in everything but the medium they chose – painting – and Speer will examine how they thought about art, how they used materials, and the trajectories taken by their careers. The afternoon and evening promise to be compelling. Speer sees himself as taking a “New Journalism” approach, and the list of writers he respects includes Tom Wolfe, Hunter Thompson and Joan
Didion. “I’m not afraid to meld into the scene while writing about it,” he says. Nor does Speer suffer from any inclination toward self-effacement. “People enjoy what I have to say. I bring color, but people know me well enough to respect my opinion.” With all this for only $15, including cocktails and a grazing dinner, a high standard has been set for the next such art event.

ART WALK
May
11
5 to 8 p.m.
ASTORIA — Downtown merchants and galleries will hold Astoria’s Second Saturday Art Walk from 5 to 8 p.m. Saturday, May 11. Meet artists and mingle with friends and fellow art lovers while enjoying refreshments and new exhibits. There’s something for everyone. Just walk around historic downtown Astoria and look for the colorful pinwheels.
ART BUSINESSES Imogen Gallery 240 11th St. Imogen is pleased to introduce the work of painter Diane Kingzett of Portland, with “Painting Between Intuition and Ego.” Describing herself as a painter of emotion, Kingzett leaves preconceived ideas of content and composition to explore her own internal dialogue, allowing psyche to become muse. Along that path, known imagery does creep in: sometimes a horizon line hovers over what breaks into pure abstraction and then may fall to another recognizable element, echoing a form as specific as a dry dock, a lone figure, animal or some other known structure. Kingzett carefully cultivates use of color, line and tonality to convey a dreamlike recollection of events of daily life. Kingzett will be present and available to answer questions about her work. The exhibition will remain on display through June 4. Old Town Framing Company 1287 Commercial St. Rene Donnelly is a freelance photographer from the Ballard neighborhood of Seattle. She started capturing the world around her first with a video camera, shooting conceptually ambitious music videos for heavyweights in Seattle’s electronic music scene, then went on to produce short films with her brother. After the completion of their most recent project, Rene realized her passion was simply in the capture of images, so she sold her filmmaking equipment and purchased a DSLR camera. Without the weight of crews or cast to bog down her creativity, she
shoots anything and everything that catches her eye, from stoic sculpture to intricate machinery to the crashing seas of the beautiful Pacific Ocean. She hopes her work catches your eye, too. Tempo Gallery at AMF 1271 Commercial St. Tempo Gallery will feature artist Marga Stanley in the May show. Marga and her husband, Tom Stanley, moved from the British West Indies to the North Coast about 10 years ago and have embraced Astoria as their new home, rain and all. Marga says, “I have been fortunate enough to have had my art in galleries from Canada to the British West Indies and the US and now have the pleasure to be one of the founding members of the new Tempo Gallery in Astoria. During May’s art walk I am excited to introduce my new body of work (in celebration of the Astoria Music Festival) that has a more abstract feel to it but still captures the sense of whimsy.” Fernhill Glass Studio 1450 Exchange St. May brings Mother’s Day, so stop on by and pick out a vase, lotion bottle and more for that special mother or grandmother. Claude and Bob will be blowing glass from 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. Miss Kitty will bake up some peanut butter cookies for your pleasure. RiverSea Gallery 1160 Commercial St. RiverSea Gallery presents new work by Hickory Mertsching, a Portland artist noted for his allegorical, still life paintings that combine unusual collec-

tions of objects. Each painting depicts a point where contemporary culture collides with the natural world. Mertsching details the detritus of modern civilization alongside flora and fauna in a style influenced by 17th century Flemish masters. Squirrels and chainsaws, pheasants and beer cans, tools, books and stumps all play a part. Portland artist, Alison O’Donoghue debuts her contemporary folk art paintings in the gallery’s alcove. Her playful and often densely patterned works are alive with action and burgeoning with characters ready to impart their stories. Mysterious figures and quirky situations abound. KALA at HIPFiSHmonthly 1017 Marine Drive KALA’s May exhibit is titled “Birds, Beasts, Friends & Relatives,” and is curated by local artist Sally Lackaff. This is a show with no pre-set theme; in essence the commonality is the freedom of the curator to choose pieces and people she likes. Thus, there are pieces featuring animals and birds; all the artists are her friends; and Sally has chosen to feature two works by her father, one of which depicts her maternal grandfather, who can be seen in the film shown after the reception: Hitchcock’s “The Birds.” It all ties together. Join KALA after the art walk for a showing of Alfred Hitchcock’s “The Birds” at 9 p.m. Free popcorn and nohost bar will be available. For more information, call 503-338-4878. Carine’s Studio 211 12th St. Buttons, washers, bottle caps,
beads, coins, nails, tea tins, curtain rings, typewriters, altoid boxes, beach glass, flowers, keys, rocks, spoons, electronics, gears, machine parts, silver, bronze, copper, leather, aluminum, upcycled, recycled, new and used. All parts of Carine’s unique original jewelry and unusually cool accessories.
OTHERS BUSINESSES SUPPORTING ART WALK Trails End Souvenirs & Gifts 1365 Commercial St. Trails End Souvenirs & Gifts believes art comes in all forms. The shop highlights the creativity of local artists through their paintings, photography, woodwork, knitted items, jewelry and more. Fort George Lovell Showroom 14th and Duane streets May’s Second Saturday Art Walk in the Fort George Lovell Showroom will feature multi-talented artist Ryan Dobrowski, founding member and drummer of the band Blind Pilot with “The Art Behind Blind Pilot.” Dobrowski will showcase several paintings created in conjunction with the album “We Are The Tide,” as well as those he produced for Blind Pilot’s previous album “3 Rounds and a Sound.” Many new pieces will also be on display. The show runs from 5 to 10 p.m., and all ages are welcome. Food and beverages will be available through the Fort George Taproom. Admission is free.

Masters of craft The Columbia-Pacific Preservation Craftsperson Guild is a network of accomplished craftspeople who work on historic preservation projects, create original work and seek to perpetuate their crafts by passing on learned skills Story and photos by DWIGHT CASWELL

“It’s starting to get pretty,” says Dave Curl as he examines the small piece of red-hot steel. He whops it again with a heavy hammer: quick hard hits that ring against the anvil. Then it goes back into the coal fire of a 130-yearold forge. “We’re going to need more heat in there to finish it,” he says. There is a hiss, and steam rises as he quenches the finished part of the piece in an oak barrel of water. Now his hammer will bend, twist and flatten only the part that remains red hot. Curl learned the craft of blacksmithing from some of the modern masters of the craft. “You think you’re a master after 10 years,” he says, “and then a few years later you think, ‘I’m a good journeyman now, and after 40 years, well, maybe.’” He lets the sentence hang, but as I examine the work in his shop, it looks masterful to me. The shop is located in the back of beyond – in the woods of Grays River, Wash., to be precise – and it’s full of all manner of pieces of the iron and steel that he uses in his work. There are innumerable hammers, other tools and three forges. The large new one is for major pieces, but the ones he uses most are 100 and 130 years old. The oldest one was once the spark arrester – the smoke stack – of a train engine. The barrel he uses for quenching comes from a more modern source, and there is a tragic story behind it. It leaked once when it was owned by Fort George Brewery, and 50 gallons of stout were lost. The project Curl was working on when I visited was a chandelier for Fort George, a place where you can see other examples of his work. Curl is a member of the Columbia-Pacific Preservation Craftsperson Guild, a group of craftspeople with the skills to work on exacting preservation projects, although none of them limit themselves to preservation alone. “The level of craftsmanship is exceptional,” says Curl. “When I first got involved, I thought I was in over my head, but now I’m doing higher-end work.” More than 50 miles from Curl’s forge is a workshop of another man with whom Curl has a lot in common. “It’s rare today,” says Jim Hannen, “to sit down with people working in different media but whose life experience is basically the same. What we have in common is that we’re all working with our hands.” Hannen, a stained glass worker, is also a member of the guild. He was exposed to glasswork in 1971, at the age of 19, when he went to work in a glass shop. While there he picked up a trade journal and noticed an ad for stained glass supplies, which inspired him to visit one of the two stained glass studios in Oregon. In 1972 he opened the third, and in 1975 he moved to Cannon Beach. In 1999 he moved to his present home and shop outside of Hamlet. Despite a location at least as remote as Curl’s, Hannen has no sense of iso-
lation. “My studio,” he says, “is the center of my existence.” One glance at the studio informs you that Hannen is, not surprisingly, captivated by glass. There are sheets of every conceivable size, shape, color and type of glass, not to mention tools, colorants and furnaces. He shows me stack upon stack of prismatic transom glass tiles recycled from an old commercial building and about to be used in a restored home. There is iridized
‘If you’re looking for a place for old architecture on the West Coast, the Lower Columbia is it. It’s one of the best spots if you like old architecture and want to restore it, to keep it original.’ glass, which shines in multiple colors from the metal oxides on its surface, and “restoration glass” from old buildings, with the authentic flaws and colors of old window glass. Hannen’s move to Hamlet was made necessary by the changing nature of his work. He’s no longer simply cutting glass and leading windows. He does casting and grinding of glass, and his architectural projects have grown more complex. “I do everything from cast glass night lights to large restoration glass on custom commission. My studio has become more of a production facility, so I can’t be in close proximity to people,” Hannen explains. Hannen, Curl and the other members of the guild don’t have to be in close proximity to people. Because of the guild, people come to them. “If you’re looking for a place for old architecture on the West Coast,” Curl says, “the Lower Columbia is it. It’s one of the best spots if you like old architecture and want to restore it, to keep it original.” Two of the principal reasons for the existence of the guild, according to one of the founders, woodworker Ed Overbay, are “the camaraderie of accomplished craftsmen, discussing our projects and drawing inspiration from trades
and processes not our own, and the perpetuation of our crafts by passing on our skills.” The Columbia-Pacific Preservation Craftsperson Guild was one of the results of an idea put forth by local architect Jay Raskin. Raskin approached the Clatsop Economic Development Resources (CEDR) to find a grant to see if a restoration “economic cluster” could be defined for the local area. Raskin thought there were enough craftspeople to be considered an economic driving force, in the same way that fishing or fish processing might be considered economic clusters. Soon he was joined by architectural historian John Goodenberger, Ed Overbay, the Lower Columbia Preservation Society and many other stakeholders. What evolved from this effort was a vision of supporting local craftspeople whose skills could be used in preservation work. What co-evolved was the Historic Preservation Program at Clatsop Community College, where craftspeople can pass on their skills to students, and the notion of marketing craftspeople together as a guild. The idea was to get local people, businesses and organizations involved in architectural preservation to work together to grow local businesses, bring more businesses and into the area, and draw more students of craft into the college. “After all,” John Goodenbeger told me, holding an ancient stone tool, “construction and hand craftsmanship have been providing family-wage jobs in the Lower Columbia for 4,000 years.”

Take a mid-week vacation at

CHOWDER HOUSE
L
Lean in close, reader. I wouldn’t want word of this to get out … but, between you and me, I don’t really like clam chowder all that much. While I’m still capable of tasting chowder and ascertaining why one version is more palatable than another, any clam chowder still places a distant second behind a number of my other favorites. It was for this reason alone that I have admittedly never stopped at Charlie’s Chowder House in Astoria, but I’m happy that I did – and positively thrilled that I sampled the chowder. I stepped into the restaurant on a sunny afternoon and wondered briefly if I’d sidestepped Astoria for a tropical island. Or maybe New Orleans. Or … I’m not sure. What I can say is that when I walked through the door I immediately felt like I was on vacation, with the tropical bric-a-brac, beachy kitsch, and fun, mismatched salt and pepper shakers. I was expecting Jimmy Buffett to emerge from the kitchen, clad in a Hawaiian shirt and flip-flops, offering margaritas. What a delightful breath of fresh air this funky place is! We were seated quickly in the bustling restaurant, and, swept up in the tropical spirit, I ordered a piña colada. When dining out I normally steer clear of any cocktail that can be made from a prepackaged “mix,” like piña coladas, Bloody Marys, or the aforementioned margaritas, but I decided that once one decides to drink an alcoholic beverage at noon, one must put such rules aside. I was not disappointed; this is an authentic-tasting piña colada,

and the flavors seemed fresh: the pleasing punch of pineapple and the sweet, milky goodness of coconut, but not cloyingly sweet. I perused the menu at length and had a difficult time ascertaining what the “theme” might be; tacos, burgers, salads, sandwiches, and some Creole dishes. What I decided, after my meal concluded, is that if the food is good, the theme, no matter how disparate, doesn’t really matter. As an appetizer I sampled both the “Astoria’s Own” clam chowder, the traditional, cream-based soup that our region has become synonymous with, and the Manhattan chowder, a tomato-based chowder with both fish and shellfish. Feel free to revoke my Northwest citizenship here and now, but while both were first rate, I actually preferred the Manhattan chowder, which reminded me very much of a cioppino. The chowder cup was filled to the brim with seafood delights of all sorts, including, surprisingly, steamer clams and mahimahi, and it was delicious down to the last spoonful, tart and tangy from the tomatoes, but mellowed by the variety of seafood. While sipping on my piña colada I thought it appropriate to sample tacos next, and chose the mahi-mahi fish tacos with tomatoes, shredded cabbage, beans and cheese served on corn tortillas. The mahi-mahi was pleasantly spiced with a combination of flavors that reminded me of Jamaican jerk seasoning, and the mellow sweetness of corn tortillas balanced the flavor better than flour tortillas would have. I have a strange fondness for fish tacos, and have sampled many varieties in our area,

and can say with certainty that the version offered at Charlie’s holds top honor for my taste buds (an honor it shares with T. Paul’s Urban Café, where they feature Baja fish tacos). Next I hopped on my culinary jet and left Mexico for Cajun country, and sampled the jambalaya with shrimp, ham, pork, and chicken. The jambalaya could have used a little more spice for my taste, and though the portion was ample and well prepared, it was overall a bit bland to me. A new favorite of mine will be the yellow-fin tuna sandwich, a large, thick cut of sushi-grade tuna prepared to order (medium rare is most tasty

‘If the food is good, the theme, no matter how disparate, doesn’t really matter.’ I capped off the meal, in rather backwards order, with a salad of spring greens and romaine topped with artichoke hearts, chicken and olives, which was also quite delectable. I was impressed, once again, with the large portion size as well as the freshness of the ingredients. It was more salad than could be eaten in one sitting, and I could have easily ordered it as a meal all on its own. My dining companions and I reveled in good company, good food and good cocktails for what was probably longer than could be considered courteous, but the fun atmosphere, sunny day and great people-watching afforded by the restaurant’s location on the corner of 14th and Marine Drive, proved to be too enjoyable to part with. I plan to visit Charlie’s Chowder House again, whenever I need a mid-week vacation from the ordinary.

Naturalist Jim Johnson will share his passion for these dynamic insects at the final Listening to the Land program of the season at 6 p.m. Wednesday, May 15 at the Seaside Public Library, 1131 Broadway. Johnson’s obsession with dragonflies and their close relatives, damselflies, began in 1995, when he was recruited to help out on dragonfly surveys in Washington state. “I got hooked right away,� he says, “and I can’t get enough.� An avid photographer, Johnson has been photographing dragonflies since 2006 and documenting his results on his website, Odonta.Bogfoot .net. He served on the Executive Council of the Dragonfly Society of the Americas from 2005-

The exhibit is in memory and honor of Katharine Thayer, a longtime resident of Astoria and Rainier, and features the work of Thayer, Diana Bloomfield and 15 other gum bichromate printers from around the world. This exhibit serves to illuminate the artistry, dedication and mastery of the challenging 19th-century gum printing process. “I had a mental picture of the kind of photograph I wanted to make,� Thayer said. “I had never seen any photographs like them, but I was determined to find a way to make them, these pictures I saw in my head. Their colors were soft and relatively unsaturated, but with a kind of glow about them ... I set out

Bloomfield gleaned invaluable bits of information from those on The List, but she learned the most from Thayer and from her website, KatharineThayer.com. The two became good friends, and corresponded via email almost daily. Bloomfield was once in a group exhibit at LightBox, where Thayer was a frequent visitor. Still, they never met. This current exhibit celebrates Thayer’s legacy and her years-long friendship with Bloomfield. Many individuals who knew and learned from Thayer have contributed prints for this group show. Bloomfield, an exhibiting photographer for 30 years, has received numerous awards, including a New Jersey State Visual Arts Fellowship and
four Regional Artist Grants from the United Arts of Raleigh, N.C. LightBox will host a special reception with Bloomfield, Thayer’s family, friends and fellow artists at 3 p.m., followed by an artist’s talk by Bloomfield at 4 p.m., discussing the beauty, art and science of the gum bichromate printing process and her friendship with Thayer. Contact the gallery before attending, as seating is limited. The exhibit runs from May 11 through June 4. Visit lightboxphotographic.com/shows for more information.

Seaside Library ‘A Mother’s Story of Autism’ memoir is the focus of author talk SEASIDE — The Friends of the Seaside Library will welcome Kerry Cohen, author of “Seeing Ezra: A Mother’s Story of Autism, Unconditional Love, and the Meaning of Normal,” for a talk 7 p.m. Thursday, May 16. The event will take place in the Community Room, and there will be book sales and signings presented by Beach Books. “Seeing Ezra” is the memoir of a mother’s fierce love for her
autistic son and a poignant examination of what it means to be “normal.” When Cohen’s son, Ezra, reaches his first birthday, a babysitter suggests he might be “different,” setting Cohen’s family on a path where autism dominates their lives. As he becomes a toddler and they navigate the world of therapy, Cohen is unsettled by the evaluations they undergo. At home, Ezra is playful and
expressive, sharing touching moments of intimacy with his mother and other family members, but in therapy he is prodded to behave in ways that undermine his expression of autism. It soon becomes clear that more is at stake than just Ezra’s well-being: Cohen and her marriage are suffering, and the strain of pursuing varied therapies takes a toll on the family. It isn’t until they abandon

TILLAMOOK — The Tillamook Association for the Performing Arts (TAPA) and TLC Federal Credit Union presents “You Know I Can’t Hear You When the Water is Running,” a collection of four one-act comedies, opening Friday, May 10. Written by Robert Anderson and directed locally by Chris Chiola, each play uses humor to explore morality, relationships, and taboo subjects. In March, TAPA premiered the first part of a two-part series featuring one-act plays with the drama “Memory” that dealt with the trials of losing one’s memory with age. “You Know I Can’t Hear You When the Water Is Running” is the humorous end of the two-part series. In Act I, “The Shock of Recognition,” a playwright and his producer flirt with the concept of full frontal male nudity on stage, and if it can or will be done by an eager actor. Don’t worry though; that is left up to the audience’s imagination.
Act II, “The Footsteps of Doves,” examines the confines of the marital bed – literally. The play follows a couple who, after 25 years of marriage, is considering going from a double bed to two single beds.
‘You Know I Can’t Hear You When the Water is Running’ 7 p.m. Friday and Saturdays, May 10, 11, 17, 18, 24 and 25 2 p.m. Sundays, May 19 and 26 Barn Community Playhouse 12th and Ivy streets in Tillamook Act III, “I’ll Be Home For Christmas,” confronts parents’ issues with a pleasure-seeking teen, a dating daughter and a third child’s college problems and how these issues strain a marriage. In the final play, Act IV’s “I’m Herbert,” two aging love
birds sit on their porch with failing memories of their past lives and loves. These witty comedies aim to touch your heart and tickle your funny bone. However, some material may not be suitable for those not of a mature age. Opening night of every TAPA production includes a champagne reception, with a complimentary beverage and appetizers. Doors for opening night open at 6:30 p.m. at the Barn Community Playhouse, 12th and Ivy streets in Tillamook. Shows start promptly at 7 p.m. Other performances are at 7 p.m. Friday and Saturdays, May 11, 17, 18, 24 and 25, and at 2 p.m. Sundays, May 19 and 26. Reserved seating is available through Diamond Art Jewelers at 503-842-7940. Tickets are $15 for adults, $10 for seniors or students, and $40 for a family of four.

ASTORIA — Variety is not just the spice of life, it is essential to continuing healthy life on Earth for all life forms.

Doors will open at 6 p.m. for those wanting to pur-

Market opens, poster designed by art chef ASTORIA — The Astoria Sunday Market begins Mother’s Day, Sunday, May 12, and runs through Oct. 13. Food, live music, fresh produce and friendly familiar faces come together to usher in another summer season. The Northwest Lion and Dragon Dancers from Portland are returning to help kick off opening day with their energetic dance that weaves through the market starting at 10 a.m. “We welcome people to join the Lion Dancers as they make their way through the market,” said Market Director Cyndi Mudge. The 2013 season will feature vendors that are market fan favorites including Packer Orchards, Kingfisher Farm, Kettle Korn, Lucky Farms flower bouquets and many artists and craftspeople. One of those vendors is Ronni with her white picket fence, quilted paintings
over a hole and drop 2,000 numbered golf balls to the ground. Prizes will be awarded to those holding ticket numbers matching the balls that make a hole in one or are closest. Tickets for golf balls are $5 each and only 2,000 will be sold. Tickets can be purchased from ALCP members, Holly McHone Jewelry at 1182 Commercial St. in Astoria, or at the Bank of Astoria in Astoria, Warrenton and Seaside. Local businesses donated prizes, including a wine tasting for 12 including wine from the Wine Cellar on 10th Street in Astoria; a round of golf for four at the Astoria Golf and Country Club; a two-night stay at the Inn of Four Winds in Seaside with a dining certificate from the Lumberyard Grill in Cannon Beach; overnight stays at the Commodore Hotel and the Holiday

His art now graces the cover of the annual Market and Downtown Shopping Guide and is featured on the rack card and the market website at www.Astoria SundayMarket.com

CCC Performing Arts Center Experience Chopin in dance with a distinct Polish flavor ASTORIA — The Astoria Music Festival presents “The Chopin Project” at Clatsop Community College’s Performing Arts Cen-
ter 3 p.m. Sunday, May 12. The afternoon of music and dance is created especially for Astoria, timed in the middle of the afternoon so families can enjoy the performance with their
moms and still have time for brunch or dinner. Half-price admission for mothers, a rose and authentic Polish desserts will make this a Mother’s Day to remember.
‘The Chopin Project’ 3 p.m. Sunday, May 12 CCC Performing Arts Center 16th and Franklin streets, Astoria 503-325-9896 $20 for adults $10 for students, teachers and moms Ruta Kuzmickas. – Submitted photo
Happy Mother’s Day Give Mom a gift she will love from Seaside Factory Outlet Center plus a free gift with purchase. Show receipt of $25 or more from any of the stores between Wed. May 5th - Sun. May 12th at Bruce’s Candy Kitchen for a
Limit one per receipt, while supplies last.
The show features Portland’s award-winning contemporary dance company Agnieszka Laska Dancers and a brilliant young American pianist, Ruta
Kuzmickas, poised to burst onto the international stage. Agnieszka Laska took on a challenging task: choreographing all 24 Chopin preludes, presented in different configurations related to her Polish heritage. For the Astoria Music Festival, she’s combined them with Nocturne Op. 9: No. 1 in B-Flat Minor, resulting in a very romantic and emotional set of solos, duets and group dances, with a distinct Polish flavor. Oregon Music News calls Kuzmickas “one of the most impressive young musicians from around the nation ... Ruta Kuzmickas performed Chopin’s Waltz with an extraordinary sensibility that is far beyond her 16 years.” Tickets are available through Brown Paper Tickets at chopinproject.bpt.me or by calling the Astoria Music Festival office at 503-325-9896. Adult tickets cost $20; student tickets are $10. The PAC is located at 16th and Franklin streets in Astoria.

Bob Joiner has played the euphonium for 70 years. – SUBMITTED PHOTO
Five Minutes With... BOB JOINER
Born and raised: East Alton, Ill. Lives now: Astoria What instruments do you play and how long have you played them? I’ve played the euphonium since I was 11 years old and the trombone since 18 years old. I have been playing for 70 years. What local musical groups do you perform with? I perform with the North Coast Symphonic Band, the North Coast Big Band, the Astoria Tuba Quartet, String of Pearls and All That Jazz. How did you get involved in music? I started taking lesson in the 5th grade, in 1942. I had a music scholarship to college and played in Ralph Marterie Band and Clyde
McCoy Band plus many Southern California bands. What was one of your most memorable concerts? I played American Jazz Suite on trombone with the North Coast Symphonic Band in March 2011. The American Jazz Suite is written for trumpet and is very challenging due to the fact that many sections are written in the extreme upper register and the tempo is very fast. What do you like to do when you're not playing music? I follow the stock market and travel. Best piece of advice: Never give up. What do you like about living at the coast? The small community and good friends.
Five Minutes With offers a Q&A with an artist, musician, thespian or writer involved in the local art scene. If you are interested in being featured, contact Coast Weekend Editor Rebecca Sedlak at rsedlak@dailyastorian.com
