An eerie undertaking Long Beach Peninsula author and historian Sydney Stevens releases new book on local ghost stories

S

Sydney Stevens, educator, Long Beach Peninsula historian, author, and fourth-generation member of the pioneering Espy family always has a myriad of projects running at the same time, not the least of which is her daily blog about life in Oysterville.

But that hasn’t stopped her from squeezing in yet another accomplishment.

Stevens’ “Ghost Stories of the Long Beach Peninsula,� (part of the Haunted American series, The History Press, Charleston, South Carolina) was published only a few weeks ago, but already the books are selling like, well, whatever is the vampire equivalent of hot cakes. (Blood sausage?)

But, really, the ghosts featured in these Long Beach tales aren’t malevolent. As Stevens says, “These ghosts are mostly benign or maybe mischievous, but they’re not mean. Some of them are even protective. Some people have said that there are ghost stories in the book that scare them — maybe that’s about the drownings or the suicides, but not about the ghosts themselves. I think we’re just predisposed to be afraid of ghosts.�

W

I Don’t Believe in Ghosts!

hat seems even more contradictory is that Stevens doesn’t believe in ghosts, though she herself has a ghost residing in the Espy family home that she shares with her husband, Nyel, in Oysterville.

In fact, her book is dedicated to the Espy-house ghost. Mrs. Crouch was a preacher’s wife who moved into their house, which at one time was the church parsonage. As Stevens puts it, “Mrs. Crouch moved into the Oysterville Baptist Parsonage in 1892, died in mysterious circumstances in 1893, and has remained in the house across from the Oysterville church ever since.�

Stevens’ book begins with her very own encounter with Mrs. Crouch who, it seems, late one night was tap-a-tap, tap-tap-tapping. Stevens heard the noise from her bedroom, but when she turned on the light, the tapping stopped. Back to bed, she turned off the light to go back to sleep and ... tap-a-tap tap4 | November 6, 2014 | coastweekend.com

tap ... it began again.

Listening carefully, Stevens realized it was coming from the bedroom next door, and when she once again got out of bed and turned the light on in that room she saw it — an old No. 7 Oliver typewriter. (It might be noted that a good many of the Espy family members were writers, most notably her Uncle Willard Espy.) Later, when Stevens asked her mother about the typewriter and the tapping, she said, “Oh, that was probably Mrs. Crouch!�

Thus Stevens, the non-believer in ghosts, began talking to people and collecting ghostly and eerie stories about the various evanescent inhabitants who live in the many old houses up and down the peninsula.

6LQFH WKDW Âż UVW WDS WDSSLQJ 6WHYHQV KDV GRQH more research on Mrs. Crouch and has found a lot of evidence that might explain why she is so unsettled.

It seems Mr. Josiah Crouch, the Baptist preacher, arrived with his wife and infant daughter in 1892.

But little did poor Mrs. Crouch know that Josiah was a philanderer and had perhaps as many wives as Henry the VIII, and some of them at the same time! The story goes that Mr. and Mrs. Crouch and the baby were making a “church call up the Willapa, and their sailboat tipped over.�

Josiah swam ashore with the baby, but Mrs. Crouch drowned. (Josiah was eventually run out of town under a cloud of disrepute and suspicion.)

T

In Other Tales

he book includes stories about the brothers Phillip and Lester Brooks, who lived in the Brooks home in Ocean Park that Nanci Main now owns.

Phillip, brother Lester and a young friend, Victor Slingerland, drowned one day while playing in Sprague’s Hole. And some say the bodies must have been laid out in the house.

Main says she was told by a psychic friend who was visiting,“There are 13 spirits in this house. You are surrounded by love!� The Brooks house is pivotal in the lives of many Peninsulites as it was also the Wiegardt home for a time with a child’s gate that

opened the fence to Bonnie and Clyde Sayce’s home in the back.

Oysterville resident, Kathleen Sayce says, “My sister Cyndi, my bother Jim, and I and the oldest Wiegardt kids — Jon and Liz — used that gate a lot.�

The back upstairs bedroom of the original Brooks house has a quiet stillness to it that seems out of character with the rest of this beautiful well-crafted home. Who knows what tales it might tell?

While dozens of artists and hundreds of new works will rain down on Cannon Beach as part of this weekend’s 27th annual Stormy Weather Arts Festival, only a precious few will be locally made.

Enter the Tolovana Arts Colony.

More than simply paying lip-service to those creating in the community, the arts colony hopes to help them pay a few bills. ³,W¶V YHU\ GLI¿ FXOW to make a living as an artist,” says Lisa Kerr, program director for the Tolovana Arts Colony.

“Most of the artists I know have another job.

They work in the service industry in some way or another. They work at restaurants, they do whatever they have to do to pay their rent and still be able follow their artistic endeavors.”

But the arts colony’s pop-up gallery, which hosts an opening reception from 5 to 8 p.m. Friday, Nov. 7, is doing more than just providing space for artists to hang and — hopefully — sell their creations.

Traditional galleries split almost down the middle with artists, taking 40 to 50 percent of the sticker price. The colony’s pop-up

shop asks just 15 percent.

“This is a way, hopefully, to move a greater volume of work,” says Kerr. “And the prices will be lower because that huge markup won’t be there.”

In part, costs are reigned in because the showing artists have volunteered to help staff the gallery, which will be open from noon to 5 p.m. Saturdays and Sundays until the end of the month. Kerr sees the opportunity for mingling between artist and audience as a value-add.

“The interaction is really neat,” she says.

“A lot of people really enjoy the opportunity to meet the local artists.

When you go into a gallery or store you don’t get to meet them. But sometimes talking to artists can make a sale.

The person gets really turned on by the idea behind it or why the artist did what they did.”

On offer will be a myriad of mediums, including paint, photography, pen and ink, wood work and more. Kerr, a jewelry maker, will also be showing. An established artist, she’s nonetheless excited about being a part of a low-commission gallery.

“It’s just sort of cool to have an opportunity to offer things at a more affordable price,” she says. “Hopefully a lot of locals will be able to take advantage of that, too.”

Since 1986, Cannon Beach Gallery featured artist Donna Sakamoto Crispin, of Eugene, has been creating contemporary baskets that incorporate Pacific Northwest indigenous techniques, Japanese aesthetics, and materials and inspiration from the natural world.

She grows several willow species in her garden and hand-gathers about 80 percent of her materials. To master traditional techniques, she attends workshops by Japanese and aboriginal instructors. “The influence from other cultures isn’t something I take lightly,� says Sakamoto Crispin, a third-generation Japanese American. “I try to be respectful.� Sakamoto Crispin will be present at the Collectors Preview Party from 6 to 8 p.m. Friday, Nov. 7 at the gallery.

Story by ANDREW TONRY

he road dead ends at a sandy beach.

There, in pastel hues, the pastoral turns foreboding.

A woman stands alongside her dog, still clutching the handlebars of a sunburnt-yellow bike. Wearing long pants and rain boots, wrapped by a swooping jacket and ZLGH EULPPHG KDW VKH VWDUHV RXW WUDQVÂż [HG E\ a looming horizon, where, above the sea, light, chalky clouds give way to heavy, midnight black. Just ahead of her, where the pavement dissolves, a red “STOPâ€? sign piques out. Instead of “STOPâ€? it reads: “GO.â€?

The surreal scene comes by way of painter David Jonathan Marshall. It’s called “Riding Out the Storm.� The stunning, evocative work is currently on display at the Modern Villa Gallery in Cannon Beach.

It’s also the poster for city’s 27th annual Stormy Weather Arts Festival — and it couldn’t be more apt. “I think the original concept of the festival maintains validity,� says Kim Barnett, owner of Bronze Coast Gallery. “It’s at a time when the weather is changing. Sometimes people haven’t been to the coast in a while. I think it gives them permission to spend time when maybe the weather’s not favorable.�

At Barnett’s gallery, however — and most of those throughout Cannon Beach — the works on display don’t revolve around wicked weather. “I’ve really never concerned myself with themes,�

Barnett says. “I’ve never concerned myself with whether they’re local, whether they’re left-handed — only whether they’re good.�

F

estivals in their 27th years are rarely in À X[ DQG VXFK LV WKH case with Stormy Weather. Galleries across Cannon Beach will hang fresh work, bring in new artists and welcome back old ones. Many such creators will be on hand signing prints, giving talks, or

simply chewing the fat while sharing drinks and hors d’oeuvres with the audience — many of whom, too, will be returning. “We have probably 80 percent of the people who come in to the gallery who have been involved with (Stormy Weather) through the last 20-some years,â€? says Barnett. “It’s nice to reIUHVK WKDW $QG WKH\ÂśUH FRPLQJ VSHFLÂż FDOO\ EH cause they’ve built relationships with the artists, with us, and with other people in the community.â€?

Indeed, socializing is as much a part of the IHVWLYDO DV LV H[SHULHQFLQJ WKH DUW 6R WRR DUH WKH vittles, which will be, more often than not, coupled with openings, demonstrations and the like.

At Bronze Coast, Barnett will offer catering from Buoy Beer, a tasting of Cannon Beach Distillery’s recently unbarreled bourbon, and beer from his son’s brewery in Bend, Good Life. On the other end of downtown, DragonFire features a wine bar, plus a smorgasbord of delicacies from local chef Jonathan Hoffman.

And, of course, there’ll be plenty of art.

DragonFire welcomes the works of a whopping 17 artists new to the gallery in 2014, including paintings, clothing, sculpture, photography and more. “Anytime DragonFire throws a show, it’s probably one of the most energetic, fun things you’ve ever been to,â€? says BarQHWW XQĂ€ LQFKLQJ ZKLOH SUDLVLQJ the competition. “They do everything different than we do, completely different, and they do it so darn well. It’s amazing.â€?

Nashville rising star Cooper & The Jam will perform in concert during the Stormy Weather Arts Festival at 7:30 p.m.

Saturday, Nov. 8 at the Coaster Theatre. Cooper & The Jam – featuring Oregon native Cooper – is a collective of over 20 musicians, back-up singers and dancers who have been impressing audiences with their big sound, soulful style and energetic performance across the country. Tickets are $35.

None, however, can boast the concurrent number of artists, styles or even history of the Cannon Beach Gallery’s Annual Miniatures Show.

At 28, the juried Miniatures Show is just slightly more tenured than the festival with which it’s entwined. To enter, artists must submit actual art — not a picture of what they plan to submit — that’s no larger than 6-by-6 inches. “We’re one of the only places in the region — maybe in Oregon — that does this kind of juried show with no fee,â€? says Andrea Mace of the Cannon Beach Arts Association, who oversees the gallery. “Usually there’s a fee of around $35 IRU DQ DUWLVW WR VXEPLW %XW DV D QRQSURÂż W SDUW RI how we accomplish our mission of serving the arts community is by having a no-fee process.â€?

In part because the show lacks a barrier to entry, and in part because of its longevity, the works pour in. “We get a couple hundred submissions and maybe hang half of them in a good year,� says

Mace. “There’ll be at least 100 miniatures.�

A lot of them will sell. “The miniature show has evolved into someWKLQJ HOVH ´ 0DFH H[SODLQV Âł,WÂśV D JLIW EX\LQJ show also, because they’re small.

by Bill Irwin, it’s programed to speak with 90 percent honesty and a dash of humor.

What happens when the space ship, Endurance, moves past Saturn and passes through the wormhole?

For starters, Nolan and his cinematographer, Hoyte Van Hoytema, conjure beautiful galactic imagery, contorting space and, eventually, dimensions.

But what he’s really doing is dropping countless big ideas —science, survival, exploration, love — into a cosmic blender, and seeing what keeps its meaning out there in the heavenly abyss. As in “The Dark Knight,� Nolan doesn’t investigate all of its philosophical questions so much as juggle them in an often dazzling, occasionally frustratingly incomplete way.

But under extreme gravitational forces, the core of “Interstellar� holds. It remains tethered to Earth, toggling between barren, otherworldly landscapes and life back home on an increasingly uninhabitable planet. There, Murph (now

played by Jessica Chastain) has grown into a physicist trying to solve an essential equation.

ASTORIA — The exhibition “Winter Coat” will open at the Clatsop Community College Art Center Gallery with a reception from 6 to 8 p.m. Thursday, Nov. 13. The show continues through Jan. 15. The gallery reception and exhibit are free and open to the public.

Curator Ben Killen Rosenberg wanted to do something different when asked to put together a show for the Art Center Gallery. Instead of choosing an artist or a theme on which to base the show, Rosenberg asked his wife, writer Loretta Stinson Rosenberg, if he could use a short story she wrote, titled “Winter Coat.”

“I’m interested in how a group of wildly different artists might interpret a piece of literature without illustrating it, and as far as I know, something like this hasn’t been done before,” says curator Rosenberg.

recipient of an Oregon Literary Fellowship and author of “Little Green” (Hawthorne Books, 2010) gladly agreed. “Ben talked about using a story as the basis of a show and I was thrilled when he chose one of mine,” she says.

Rosenberg sent the story to local and nationally known artists who work in different media, inviting them to participate.

His sole caveat was that the

It’s ‘Ocian in View’ weekend ILWACO, Wash. — The Columbia Paci¿c Heritage Museum puts on its annual “Ocian in View” program Friday and Saturday, Nov. 7 and 8, honoring Lewis and Clark’s arrival to the coast.

At 6 p.m. Friday, the museum will present a lecture by well-known Lewis and Clark historian Barb Kubik, “Recruiting Volunteers for the Corps of Discovery: Was it the Pay? The Adventure? The Bene¿ts?” The lecture is free and open to the public.

At 9 a.m. Saturday, hop aboard the museum’s Dismal Nitch Bus Tour. Dismal Nitch, on the north shore of the Columbia River, was the site of Lewis and Clark’s most dif¿cult adventure; the expedition was pinned to the river bank by raging weather. The site’s location has been the object of speculation among historians.

Join Jim Sayce, Washington State Historical Society’s manager for local projects, as he uses the journals of Lewis and Clark to guide participants along the landscape of the river as it might have been over 200 years ago to ¿nd the “real” Dismal Nitch.

The bus ride is $20; advanced reservations are required (360642-3446).

From 4 to 7 p.m. Saturday,

“Winter Coat” exhibit are Holly Andres, Horia Boboia, Larry Clark, Matthew Dennison, Eduardo Fernandez, Jacques Flechemuller, Trish Grantham, Julie Keefe, Cynthia Lahti, Pat Lando, Bill Lepore, Mike McGovern, Hickory Mertsching, Jeffry Mitchell and J. Scott Wilson.

CANNON BEACH — The 201415 World of Haystack Rock free community lecture series kicks off this month and continues through April.

Local author Matt Love will present “One Writer’s Muse: The Oregon Coast” from 7 to 8:30 p.m. Wednesday, Nov. 12 at the Cannon Beach Community Hall.

In the last 10 years, Love has written six books directly inspired by stories originating on the Oregon Coast.

Ranging from the legacy of the state’s publicly owned beaches to rain to the ¿lm “Sometimes a Great Notion” to caretaking a wildlife refuge to the Yaquina Bay Bridge, these topics fueled his passion to write.

Join Love as he shares the story of how he approached

these topics and started his own publishing company to distribute them in an interactive multi-media presentation.

Love lives in Astoria and is the publisher of Nestucca Spit Press. He’s the author/editor of 12 books about Oregon.

The World of Haystack Rock lecture series is sponsored by the Friends of Haystack Rock and the Cannon Beach Library, which will host the rest of the talks for the 2014-15 season.

Coast-ucopia to feature oyster shucking, chowder cook-off

By Katherine Lacaze EO Media Group

SEASIDE â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Seaside will feature a new event this month with a coastal-style harvest celebration.

Coast-ucopia, a festival organized by Tsunami Sandwich Company owner David Posalski, will run Friday, Saturday and Sunday, Nov. 7, 8 and 9. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re basically trying to have it be a harvest festival without all the pumpkins and scarecrows, because we donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have pumpkins and scarecrows at the coast,â&#x20AC;? Posalski said.

Instead, Coast-ucopia is designed to be a â&#x20AC;&#x153;showcase of the coastal harvestâ&#x20AC;? from Oregon and Washington, which includes clams, crabs, sea salt and other products reaped in the area during fall.

Razor clam and crab derbies will be held all three days.

Individuals can register Friday night and then weigh-in at a designated location and at different times throughout the weekend. Whoever brings in the biggest crabs and razor clams will win prizes.

The Seaside American Legion Post 99 will host a Vet-

erans Appreciation Dinner at 5 p.m. Saturday at its faciliW\ %URDGZD\ )RU attendees have a choice of steak, pan-fried oysters or razor clams. HonkyTonk Union will perform live. Proceeds IURP WKH GLQQHU ZLOO EHQHÂżW WKH American Legion.

Many restaurants claim their version is the best around, and so they can â&#x20AC;&#x153;put their chowder where their mouth is,â&#x20AC;? Posalski said.

The calendar is $20, and its pictures can be seen it on the website at www.palettepuddlers.com.

Each month’s art piece is suitable for matting and fram-

ing. Calendars can also be purchased from the website for $22 and includes shipping.

Members Louise Birkenfeld, Susan Bish, Betty Brower, Sheila Brown, Patricia Button, Judith Fredrikson, Jeannette Gran-Davis, Jo Pomeroy-Crockett, Mary Ann Gantenbein, Suzanne King, Susan Thomas and Ellen Zimet will be showing and selling original works of art in a variety of mediums, including watercolor, lino-block prints, acrylics, mixed-media, oils, pastels and handmade tiles.

Most of the member artists are award winners and show their work in other venues in the Northwest.

By RYAN HUME Just finished: “Loitering: New & Collected Essays”

by Charles D’Ambrosio Tin House Books, 2014 Plot Notes: This excellent collection of 17 personal essays stares directly at a variety of topics: Native American whaling, a Pentecostal Hell House, train-hopping and, in the title essay, the nearly sociopathic artifice of TV news journalists circling a crime scene in progress. Whether he is haunting a Seattle of yesteryear, reminiscing about the dark times that have befallen his own family or examining the work of J.D. Salinger and Richard Brautigan, D’Ambrosio approaches his subjects with a tender wit, a keen eye and a raw honesty that makes him pleasant company even in the unlikeliest places.

Take Away: The term essay arrives to English from the French verb essayer, meaning “to test,” “to try.” D’Ambrosio, who has previously published two wonderful collections of short fiction, takes this to heart in “Loitering,” bravely showing every misstep of his mental process, zooming in on the oft-overlooked detail, churning the obvious to reveal the unexpected. The result is almost always unexpected but carries the satisfaction of hearing a story from a close friend.

Recommended For: Fans of Joan Didion and Cheryl Strayed, lovers of a perfect sentence.

Bonus: Eleven of the 17 essays in this collection originally appeared in “Orphans,” a book that long ago attained cult status when it was printed in a small edition of 3,500 by the now-defunct Astoria-based Clear Cut Press in 2004. Volumes of that little tome have been hard to come by, with bidding beginning on Amazon at $143.

If you love crocheted hangers, the Spay and Neuter Thrift Shop of Seaside is a gold mine.

A GLIMPSE INSIDE An occasional feature by MATT LOVE

Spay and Neuter Thrift Shop of Seaside I had 30 minutes to burn before the Written in the Sand author fair event commenced at Beach Books in Seaside. So why not help animals?

That’s always a great notion.

Thus, I made my way inside the Spay and Neuter Thrift Shop in Seaside.

The shop overlooks a particularly inviting stretch of the Neacanicum River and reminds visitors that Seaside is very much a languid river town as well as a lively beach town. All proceeds from sales at the store are earmarked to help combat the persistent problem of unwanted litters of dogs and cats.

I walked inside hoping to score some new item of corduroy clothing.

No proper bohemian writer or handyman should ever be without enough corduroy during fall on the Oregon Coast. I consider it the official fabric of the season.

The shop’s interior impressed me. This is easily the most smartly organized thrift store in Clatsop County. The merchandise is clean, immaculately shelved, hung and labeled. Prices were incredibly cheap too, unlike the big box thrift store retailers.

All that is good and well, but true thrift store connoisseurs always remember an establishment for its unique finds.

The Spay and Neuter Thrift Shop has them for sure, starting with Hush Puppie golf shoes and a basketful of crocheted hangers that presumably took a very determined person a lifetime to knit. For me, the great discovery was seeing that someone had dumped their entire Woody Allen movie collection on VHS. I snapped up the underrated “Stardust Memories” and went to the counter. The event was starting in a few minutes and I had to leave.

The clerk didn’t know right off how much the tape cost. I plunked down a dollar and said, “Is this enough?”

“Sure, why not,” the man said.

The Spay and Neuter Thrift Shop is located at 600 Broadway in Seaside.

Its hours are 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday to Saturday, 11a.m. to 3 p.m. Sundays (summer only), closed Wednesdays.

Matt Love is author/editor of 12 books about Oregon.

They are available at all coastal bookstores or through www.nestuccaspitpress.com. He lives in Astoria.
