a season of thanks

Are you dreaming of a ‘White Christmas’? Look no further than the Coaster Theatre this season CANNON BEACH — Traditionally, the Coaster Theatre presents a Broadway musical during the holiday season.

With romance in mind, the two follow a duo of beautiful singing sisters en route to their Christmas show at a Vermont lodge, which just happens to be owned by Bob and Phil’s former army commander, Gen. Henry Waverly. The score features wellknown standards, including “Blue Skies” and the perennial favorite, “White Christmas.“ Playing the roles of Bob Wallace and Phil Davis will be partners Richard Bowman and Darren Hull, seasoned Coaster Theatre actors.

A BRIGHT COMET IS ON

THE HORIZON

Coastal Life Story and graphic by BOB DUKE

Look east for comet ISON this holiday season

A

A great comet has not graced coast skies since Hale-Bopp appeared more than a decade ago. That is about to change. Comet ISON is coming, and its predicted brightness has sky watchers excited. Will it be the “Comet of the Centuryâ€?? In just a matter of days, eyes will turn skyward, and we will all have the answer. During the last half of November and throughout December, coastal residents will enjoy a front row seat. )URP WKH Âż UVW PRPHQW 9LWDOL 1HYVNL and Artyom Novichonok – with the InWHUQDWLRQDO 6FLHQWLÂż F 2SWLFDO 1HWZRUN ISON – saw the comet, the scientific community knew this visitor from deep space was special. Born 4.6 billion years ago of the same matter and makeup as the rest of our solar system, this three-mile wide sphere of primordial material will hurtle to within just 750,000 miles of the solar surface and encounter enough heat to vaporize even

the metals of its outer layer. For scientists, it is like a cosmic egg containing all the information of our solar system’s beginnings, and it is about to be cracked open. For those of us on the coast who simply enjoy a good sky show, it could be an incredible sight. During the bulk of human history, the appearance of a comet in the sky spelled disaster, pestilence and coming doom. Nineteenth century science revealed comets for what they are: huge “dirty snowballs,â€? miles-wide objects made up of water, frozen gases and many bits of rock and dust. Comets were formed along with the rest of our solar system and lurk deep in space, in the so-called “Oort Cloudâ€? that surrounds the solar system.

ice, making it glow brightly. Astronomers get excited and make grand predictions. But when the comet approaches the sun, anything can happen. Gas and ice become excited and explode into space, leaving a trail of debris to be pushed away by the sun, forming the tail we see from Earth. What happens during this period is unpredictable. Comet Kohoutek burned out early in 1973, and most recently in 2011, comet Lovejoy, visible in the southern hemisphere, underwent a “cataclysmic fragmentationâ€? and disappeared. The latest prognosis for the ISON comet, however, is a good one. It is predicted to survive its solar encounter intact and put on a good show. It is not brightHQLQJ DV UDSLGO\ DV Âż UVW WKRXJKW VR LW may have to be downgraded to “Comet of the Year.â€?

24, ISON will rise over the eastern horizon, along with the planets Mercury and Saturn, one hour before a 7:30 a.m. sunrise. It will grow brighter each morning but will disappear into the sun’s glare by Dec. 27. At perihelion, ISON may be bright enough to be visible in daylight, but it will be too close to the sun in the sky to observe safely. It may be possible to shield the sun with a building or hand, but care must be taken, and never use an optical device when the sun is above the horizon. Beginning on Sunday, Dec. 1, ISON will climb higher in the morning sky and set later every day, eventually moving so far from the sun that it will be visible in late evening, near the constellation Ursa Major, or the Big Dipper. It will also dim as the days go by. As the comet climbs higher in the sky in December, moonlight will become a factor. The best time to view ISON in 'HFHPEHU LV GXULQJ WKH Âż UVW DQG ODVW weeks of the month. Judging by reports at this writing, don’t expect it to be as “bright as the full moon.â€? Do plan on making an early morning excursion to the country for what may turn out to be a spectacular sunrise. With any luck, ISON will dazzle and continue to be a spectacular sight all the way into January.

For those of us on the coast who simply enjoy a good sky show, it could be an incredible sight.

Viewing ISON

Find a viewing location with a clear view to the east, away from town or city lights. No special equipment is needed, just your bare eyes, with perhaps the aid of a small pair of binoculars. ISON should become visible to the un-aided eye during the last two weeks of November, on its way to its closest proximity to the sun – called the “perihelion� – on Thursday, Nov. 28. You will see it in the east in the early morning before sunrise. On the morning of Sunday, Nov.

“I’ve always been interested in art,” Bethany Rowland said, “but I never did any painting per se until my mid-30s.” A friend suggested Rowland join her in taking a drawing class from Portland artist Phil Sylvester. That was almost 20 years ago, and since then, Rowland has never had a one-artist show in a gallery. Until last month, that is, when Astoria’s Imogen Gallery gave her a show called “Field Notes: Considering Resonance and Longing.” There, viewers had the unusual experience of seeing not a new artist’s ¿rst efforts, but an artist of mature technique and accomplished interpretation at last stepping out on stage. The show was a triumph, both aesthetically and ¿nancially: She sold nine paintings. Now, though the show is over, her work is still on the

walls of the gallery, located at 240 11th St. A resident of Portland, Rowland has a deep interest in the emotional aspect of life, to the extent that her day job is being a psychiatric nurse and nurse practitioner. After studying with several instructors, including local painter Royal Nebeker, she ¿rst showed her work in a group exhibit at the North Bank Gallery in Vancouver, Wash. She also had a few paintings on a restaurant wall. But it was when Rowland’s work was twice juried into Clatsop Community College’s “Au Naturel,” an annual exhibition focusing on the nude, that she came to the attention of the Astoria art scene – and of Imogen owner Teri Sund. Rowland attributes the way she

Members of the community voice what they find special about autumn in the Columbia-Pacific

Story and photos by DWIGHT CASWELL

uring the Astoria Centennial in 2011 two high school girls approached me. They were surveying Astoria residents: “What do you like about Astoria?â€? Quite truthfully, I answered, “the weather.â€? They were dumbstruck; in fact, I don’t think they believed me. It’s true, though. Although my roots are in Oregon, I spent most of my life in California, where I disliked all that heat and sunshine. It was a relief to get back to rain and a place where the local radio station (KMUN 91.9 FM) issues warnings when the temperature climbs above 80 degrees. So in this Thanksgiving season, I am grateful for weather that’s neither hot nor boring. I will enjoy reading by a ZDUP ÂżUH WR WKH sounds of rain on a cedar roof and the foghorns of passing ships. Anyone can be grateful for our beautiful summers, but the real test comes as fall announces the nearness of winter. I wondered if others shared my thoughts, and I began asking people what they were grateful for, living in the Lower Columbia during autumn. I found a few people packing for their annual trek to Arizona, but not many. Âł, ORYH WKH ÂżUVW UDLQ ´ RQH SHUVRQ said to me. “At last the sun is gone!â€? That might seem extreme, but he was not alone. Several people appreciated the return to “more predictable weather,â€? in the words of David Pollard, meaning, I guess, reliable precipitation. One liked “the blustery

weather,â€? which was echoed: “I like it when the rain comes back; it makes you feel at home.â€? Another chimed in, “It’s not icy and snowy, it’s just comfortable.â€? I think this attitude is due in part to what I call the snuggle factor. As one woman put it, “I love the cool, snuggly nights.â€? Food is one of the glories of the season, but nobody talked about Thanksgiving dinner. Restaurateur David Campiche, owner of the Shelburne Inn in Seaview, Wash., found it hard to narrow down what he liked DERXW IDOO DQG ÂżQDOO\ GHFLGHG WKDW LW ZDV WKH wild mushrooms. Others mentioned crabbing (“before the commercial guys get startedâ€?), the fall salmon run, clamming, and deer, elk and game bird hunting. In this neck of the woods we can, with some time and a little equipment, truly eat like kings. The most common answer I received, however, was one that surprised me: “The color!â€? There are a lot of people who live here who speak as though they’re living in New England. Like one person said, “For a place that doesn’t have many trees that change color, it’s beautiful.â€? Most people, when they think of color in relation WR WKH 3DFLÂżF 1RUWKZHVW WKLQN “green.â€? In fact, one woman, a refugee from Southern California, told me that she loved green, which meant that she had to put up with the rain that made the green possible. Another took the contrary opinion: “Green is boring, not like red and yellow!â€? Perhaps it is the background of endless evergreen that makes the decidu-

Stroll the streets during late October and early November, and notice the number of Ă€DPH UHG VKUXEV DQG PXOWLFRORUHG -DSDQHVH maples that adorn our gardens, put there to bring us a little autumn joy. Several people commented that trees without their leaves are attractive, too. “You get to see the trees more clearly,â€? said RQH DQG .081 SURJUDPPHU -RVHI *DXOW loved the fact that “I don’t have to rake my lawn; the leaves are so beautiful!â€? In addition to praise for autumn colors, I got a lot of responses about the quality of light in the fall. This may be due to where I asked many of my questions: Second Saturday Art Walk in Astoria. “I get so excited about the soft mist light,â€? LightBox Photographic Gallery owner Michael Granger said, “that I want to go out and shoot.â€? He even went so far as to say, “I hate the summers; it’s boring light.â€? Photographer David Lee Myers agreed: “The light is incredible, es-

Teri Sund, of Imogen Gallery, loved the electric blue of the sky, and Rhonda Grudenic observed that, “Twilight and early morning you get this incredible violet color.

Mouth finds room for improvement at Cannon Beach eatery

The Driftwood Inn Restaurant and Lounge in Cannon Beach is nestled in the heart of Hemlock Street, and it has welcomed diners with its warm, casual atmosphere for more than 60 years. Prior to visiting for a review, I had never eaten there, but every time I have driven by it, with its sunny deck overlooking the bustling street, I have made a mental note to stop. I visited for a late dinner recently and began with an appetizer of tempura prawns.

By participating in the Seaside Public Library’s Winter Reading Program this year, kids and teens can help earn a Llama for a deserving family living in the Andes Mountains of South America through Heifer International.

Read and earn a llama Seaside Library starts winter program SEASIDE — The Winter Reading Program at the Seaside Public Library kicked off Nov. 12. This year, kids and teens can help earn a llama for a deserving family living in the Andes Mountains of South America through Heifer International. The family will use the wool to make blankets and clothing, and they can also sell the wool to pay for everyday needs. Heifer International empowers families to turn hunger into hope and prosperity – but the organization’s approach is more than just giving a handout.

SEASIDE — Travel down “Thunder Road” with author Peter Ames Carlin as he tells the story of “Bruce” – Springsteen that is. The event will take place at 7 p.m. Thursday, Nov. 21 and is presented by the Friends of the Seaside Library. There will be book sales and signings presented by Beach Books. “Bruce” is the sweeping biography of one of America’s greatest musicians and is the first in 25 years to be written with the cooperation of Springsteen himself. Carlin was granted unparalleled access to the musician’s family and band members – including Clarence Clemons in his last major interview. The material revealed by Springsteen’s inner circle is an account of a man laden with family tragedy, a tremendous dedication to his artistry, and an all-consuming passion for fame and influence. The E Street Band members finally bare their feel-

ings about their abrupt dismissal in 1989 and how Springsteen’s ambivalence nearly capsized their 1999 reunion. Carlin deftly traces Springsteen’s often harrowing personal life: from his lower working-class childhood in Freehold, N.J., through his stubborn climb to fame and tangled romantic life, and finally to his quest to conquer the demons that nearly destroyed his father. “Bruce” encompasses the breadth of Springsteen’s astonishing career and explores the inner workings of a man who managed to redefine generations of music. Carlin is a journalist, critic and author. He has been a senior writer at People magazine and a TV critic for The Oregonian. He is also the author of “Paul McCartney: A Life” and “Catch A Wave: The Rise, Fall and Redemption of the Beach Boy’s Brian Wilson.” He lives in Portland with

Where were you born and raised? I was born in England and raised in Toronto, Canada. Where do you live now? I married an American and now live in Skamokawa, Wash. What sparked your interest in writing and how did you become an author? I have written since childhood, and my mother encouraged my interest in writing. She bought magazines about writing, and it just sort of evolved from there. When I moved to Skamokawa, my father-in-law used to tell stories about local history. He had a wonderful memory, and so I began writing his stories down, which pushed me in the direction of local and regional history. Tell me about your latest book, “The Family that Never Threw Anything Away.” My latest book is, in some ways, a tribute to my fatherin-law, as part of the family that never threw anything away. He talked about the history of various items in what we refer to as “the collection,” the memorabilia of 150-plus years of my husband’s family. I worked those objects, the traditions they represented, and the history of the area into poems, as well as including personal stories that I hope will get handed on. What are some other books you’ve written? My other books include “Skamokawa, Sad Years, Glad Years,” a local history of our village; “Legacy and Testament: The Story of Columbia River Gillnetters”; “Beach of Heaven: A History of Wahkiakum County”; “Lewis and Clark in the Land of the Wahkiakums”; “Sea Fire: Tales of Jesus and Fishing”; and “The Flight of the Bumble Bee: The Columbia River Packers Association and a Century

Local author Irene Martin has written several non-fiction books on local history, focusing on subjects such as Wahkiakum County, Lewis and Clark, Columbia River gillnetters and canning on the Columbia River. Her newest book is a collection of poetry.

in the Pursuit of Fish.” All of these are non-fiction, based on lengthy years of research, interviews and revision. For you, how does publishing a volume of poetry differ from publishing non-fiction? Poetry is very different. It is a much more emotional reaction to what is going on around me, the patterns I see replicated in local history, and the birth and death of people I have known and loved. It requires many hours of work and revision to create a poem, which is sort of a crystallization of one’s own experience and deepest reaction to that experience. It’s almost like shedding one’s skin. Where can people find your books? What is it like to get published? My books are carried in numerous local bookstores and are available from me as well (P.O. Box 83, Skamokawa, WA 98647; imartin@iinet.

com). Even though I have had hundreds of articles published, plus books, reports and other documents, it is still an exhilarating experience to see my work in print. Sometimes I reread something I wrote years ago and can hardly believe I actually did that. What do you do when you’re not writing? When I’m not writing, I like to garden, pick wild mushrooms in the fall, read, spend time with friends and family and play the piano. This last is for my own pleasure – I’m really not very good at it, but I do love to play. What is something you like about living in the Columbia-Pacific? I enjoy living in the Pacific Northwest as I like to walk, and there is plenty of opportunity to be outdoors and enjoy the spectacular scenery of the lower Columbia region.
