Draw spooky skulls at Seaside Public Library SEASIDE — Do you like to draw? Like skulls? Why not combine the two and sign up for Seaside Public Library’s “Drawing Skulls: Real and Imagined” with local artist and illustrator Dorota Haber-Lehigh. The free workshop will take place at 1 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 29 and is sponsored by the Friends of the Seaside Library. You must sign up for this class in advance and can do so at the circulation desk or by calling the library at 503738-6742. All materials will be provided. In the class, Haber-Lehigh will explain techniques on how to proportionally

enlarge drawings, and how to use bilateral symmetry to draw human and mammal skulls. She will bring specimens of bird and animal skulls so you can see them in person, and participants are encouraged to bring a favorite photo or book on anatomy for reference. Haber-Lehigh has a Bachelor of Arts from Pacific University with a focus on printmaking and art history. She has designed, illustrated and published the coloring books “ABC of Native Plants of the Coastal Pacific Northwest” and “Native Berries of the Coastal Pacific Northwest.”

ASTORIA — Astoria Visual Arts welcomes two local artists, Katie George and Terry Robinett, to work in its two downtown studios rentfree from October through December as part of the AVA artist-in-residence program. George, a Svensen native, focuses on realism and scientific illustration in her work. Although primarily selftaught, George took a handful of art classes while studying at Lewis & Clark College in Portland. It was during her undergraduate years, as a student of biochemistry and molecular biology, that she became interested in scientific illustration. She was awarded a research grant to travel to Yasuní National Park in the Ecuadorian Amazon to create illustrations of local medicinal plants. The series of drawings that resulted were displayed at the College’s Watzek Library in 2014 and helped raise awareness of the deforestation and oil extraction occurring in Yasuní. Since creating these illustrations, George has changed her primary medium to pyrography (wood burning), although she also works in watercolor, oil, pen and ink, graphite, charcoal, pottery and sculpture. “Creating art has been a part of me since I can remember,” says George. “As a biochemistry molecular biologist, I now look through a scientific lens when creating art. By using natural matter such as wood and plants, I aim to capture the intricacies the natural world has to offer and remind the viewer of the importance of conservation, of the treasures of the natural world, and of what remains to be discovered. I am very excited to experiment with different media during this residency and to be able to dedicate three solid months to my true passion, art.” Terry Robinett spent her childhood in a suburb of Bos-

ton and her teen years in a small town on the Suwannee River in North Florida. She now lives in Astoria with her husband, dog and three cats. As a child, Robinett found great pleasure in drawing and writing stories, usually about horses or bugs or monsters, which she illustrated and stapled together as little books. As she transitioned to living in the South, she found her place working on high school yearbooks and newspapers for which she did artwork, designed layouts and wrote copy. In 1991, she traveled West on a Greyhound bus to house-sit for an older sister and promptly fell in love with Oregon. Robinett attended Portland State University, studying fine arts and painting under modern artist Mel Katz. By 1996 she was a founding member of the Hawthorne Arts Guild and Gallery in Portland and a partner with Portland’s Broderick Gallery. She served as the art director of the all-fe-

male Fire Festival in 1997 and showed her paintings at alternative spaces around Portland. Robinett also has worked creatively in film and theater, which included stints of directing, performing and stagecraft. She moved to Astoria with her husband, Todd, in 2014 and, once settled, recovered long-held interests in a variety of arts media. The Robinetts own and operate the Merry Time Bar & Grill in Astoria. “My husband and I moved to Astoria as a way to connect to the things that mattered most to us: nature, community and a more simplified life lived with intent. For me, that means making more art,” says Robinett. “Despite the challenges of working in the corner of a room of a house with four pets who shed (a lot), Astoria definitely has reinvigorated my muse. I welcome the opportunity the residency provides to create more mixed-media pieces without distraction, along

with the opportunity to meet and talk with local artists, as well as opening the studio to visitors.” AVA a-i-r is designed to encourage the creative, intellectual and professional growth of emerging artists. While no exhibition, publication or performance is required of the selected artists, community responsibility includes at least two weekend open studio events before the end of each AVA a-i-r session. Finalists (currently limited to locally based artists) are chosen in a blind selection process on the basis of artistic merit by an independent panel of established working artists and arts patrons. AVA a-i-r is supported by members of Astoria Visual Arts as well as by local businesses such as Albatross & Co., Astoria Coffeehouse & Bistro, Astoria Co-op Grocery, City Lumber Co., Dots ‘N Doodles Art Supplies, and Fort George Brewery. AVA was founded in 1989 as a nonprofit membership organization to enhance, strengthen and promote the arts in the greater Astoria area.

To provide that help, Assistance League is conducting its annual Home & Chef Tour. From 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 15, five historic homes and a commercial building in Astoria will be opened to the public. In addition, chefs from area restaurants will provide appetizers. Built between 1885 and 1908, the five homes offer a glimpse into one of the most prosperous periods in Astoria’s history. Among the homes on the tour is the Foard home, a Queen Anne-style house

Continued from Pg. 4 built by Astorian businessman Martin Foard in 1892. Until it was sold last year, the home had had only two owners. The original carved woodwork around the doors, an elegant staircase and the ornate Lincrusta-Walton wainscoting in the foyer and dining room — popular in the late 19th century — remain in good condition. Astoria’s prominent families once gathered in the living room, where the Columbia River can be viewed from the home’s hilltop location. When Jack and Bonnie Ross bought the home last December, the first thing they discovered were pocket doors hidden inside the door frames between two of the rooms. “They had been enclosed for at least 50 years,” said Bonnie Ross. “They were just beautiful.” The Rosses, who are enthusiastic historic preservationists, have already

replaced a mantel over the library’s fireplace, refinished the mahagony inlaid floors and have begun restoring the butler’s pantry. But the home’s original door knobs, bathroom fixtures and windows are still in good shape, Bonnie Ross said. “The house is pretty exceptional, pretty original ... We feel very blessed to be here,” she added. Other homes on the tour are: • The Cronin home: Built in 1915 by native Finn Dr. Toivo Forsstrom, who immigrated to Astoria via Shanghai on the SS Dakota in 1905, the 5,000-squarefoot house features a rock creek fireplace, Craftsman-style woodwork, large windows with river views and a secret door to a hidden room. The downstairs bathroom is wallpapered with hundreds of Astoria canning labels. • The Brown-Stichman home: Restored by Mark Brown and Dennis Stichman, the home, built between 1904 and 1908, includes a hemlock floor throughout

the second floor and hall, built-ins with antique leaded-glass doors and a breathtaking view of the Columbia from nearly every room. • The Beck home: Listed in the National Record of Historic Places, the 4,000-square-foot home was built in 1886 and remains in its original state; only the kitchen has been remodeled. • The Jones home: From the time it was built in 1895 until 2000, this home remained in the McGregor family. The 5,500-square-foot house sits on one acre above the Alderbrook lagoon. • Vintage Hardware sneak preview: Originally occupied by the Maki Supply Company in 1946, the building at 1162 Marine Drive also contained agricultural machinery sales, auto repair, and feed and seed businesses. The Clatsop County chapter of Assistance League works with an $80,000 annual budget to provide children with clothing. Through its main program, Operation School Bell, 650 kids in elemen-

Another 350 high school girls borrowed donated gowns for homecoming and prom through the league’s Cinderella Closet. Thirty local children, who entered the state’s foster care system and weren’t allow to bring anything from home, were comforted with duffel bags filled with clothing, books, a blanket and stuffed animal, all supplied by the league. In addition, the league assists kids whose families can’t afford to pay fees for school sports or choir. The generosity of local store owners who offer deep discounts, as well as the annual tour, which has grown more popular over the past nine years, help the league reach its goals, Davies said. “We’re so blessed in this small community,” she added.

Theater to put Roaring ’20s fun in fundraiser RAYMOND, Wash. — The antics of Harold Lloyd, the silent movie-era master of living on the edge, will come to Raymond on Saturday, Oct. 15 with the showing of the 1923 comedic silent film “Why Worry?” accompanied on the piano by Dave Milne. The screening caps off a night of 1920s-themed entertainment as part of a fundraiser for the historic Raymond Theatre. Enjoy cabaret-style acts by local performers including Lew Chapman on the trumpet, singers and the Gayle Russell Dancers. Beer and wine will be served, but remember: It’s the Prohibition era, so just tell ‘em Harold sent ya’. Locals are encouraged to dress the part for the

evening (flappers welcome). Get your mugshot in your knee-duster and fedora at the picture booth. Doors open at 5:30 p.m. with hors d’oeuvres served at 6 p.m. Local acts will keep the audience entertained, with master of ceremonies Mike Williams trying desperately to avoid using the hook. Don’t be alarmed if unsavory gangster-looking characters carrying violin cases wander the theater. They’re just there to politely sell raffle tickets. The admission ticket also doubles as a raffle ticket, so hold on to the stub. Buy additional tickets to increase your odds of winning. Prizes include a week’s accommodations in Hawaii,

two weekend stays at the Blackbird Inn in the Bavarian-themed town Leavenworth, and tickets for Sunday Afternoon Live’s November show, Cash’d Out, a Johnny Cash tribute band. The 1928 building needs numerous leaky roof repairs and a new heating system. In 2016 dollars, that’s estimated to be $50,000. Theater manager Anne Steele hopes residents throughout Pacific County will recognize the value of the building and join the fun on Oct. 15. “This is a lovely theater with a storied past,” she said. “It’s a cultural center for live acts and popular movies. But we need your help to ensure it continues to be available for generations to come.”

Sunday Afternoon Live hosts 10 or more performances each year at the theater, bringing in acts that include tenor Terry Barber, folk singer Andy Hackbarth and children’s performers. In addition, the theater shows current movies, classics and is available for rental. Parties, meetings and community events are welcome, Steele said. Tickets are $15 for adults and $6 for students and children under 18. Tickets are available in advance at South Bend Pharmacy, 101 Willapa Ave. in South Bend; and Sagen’s Pharmacy, 515 Commercial St. in Raymond. The theater is located at 323 Third St. in Raymond.

beauty and accessible everyday life invites documentation. Those lucky enough to experience Astoria sense they are witnessing something special. More than a century ago, the city of Astoria at the mouth of the Columbia River was a place of big fish,

big trees, big dreams and big personalities. Luckily, many professional photographers and everyday shutterbugs made it their business to capture life on the lower Columbia from the earliest days of photography. Today, there are fewer giant salmon and the remaining old-growth trees are protected, but the town, dreams, personalities and photographs remain. Perez’s “Astoria” book is available from the Lewis & Clark National Park Association bookstore in the Fort Clatsop visitor center. There will be a book-signing following her presentation.

Join community conversation about power, place, home and belonging Oct. 14 event is part of This Place series by Oregon Humanities

ASTORIA — “Place” is a complicated and powerful idea that informs our identities and the way we live our lives, whether we’re talking about the communities we’re a part of, the neighborhoods where we live, or the lands that people before us called “home.” Oregon Humanities is sponsoring This Place, a series of 90-minute community discussions happening across the state this fall. The Astoria Public Library will host a This Place commu-

nity discussion at 6 p.m. Friday, Oct. 14. The talk is free and open to the public; the library is located at 450 10th St. The discussions provide Oregonians with an opportunity to explore their relationship to the places they’ve come from and the places they’re in now; to consider how communities have lost or gained land and power, and how this has affected people within these communities; to consider the history of neighborhoods, communities and the state, and how those places have changed over time; and to explore options for meaningful engagement with their places and communities going forward.

Participants will come away from this conversation with a strengthened sense of community support and collective engagement around their exploration of place, as well as a resource list and information to help them continue the conversation. This Place is part of a statewide initiative by Oregon Humanities to bring 25 conversations about place to communities across the state in September and October. The community conversations will culminate in a one-day gathering Oct. 28 at the Chehalem Cultural Center in Newberg. These conversations will be led by trained facilitators from the fields of tribal resource management, anthropology,

conflict resolution, applied theology, natural resource management, ethnic studies, and fisheries science. For more information about this free community discussion, contact Ami Kreider at 503-325-7323 or akreider@astoria.or.us. To learn more about the oneday gathering, visit http:// oregonhumanities.org/programs/this-place Oregon Humanities connects Oregonians to ideas that change lives and transform communities.

The class that follows, “Script Interpretation and Text Analysis,” from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m., with an hour lunch break, is presented by Zucker. The class will consider the novella of “The Postman Always Rings Twice,” studying how it was adapted from two different versions of the David Mamet screenplay and considering how the scripts changed during production. Zucker will have the group look at acting, writing and directing, to see how the text changes from book to screenplay and to consider how this affects the participants’ own script writing. Students will be responsi-

Meet and greet Bay Avenue Gallery artists OCEAN PARK, Wash. — After seven years in operation, Bay Avenue Gallery is again celebrating a great year of representing local and regional artists. To celebrate, the gallery will host A Day With the Artists event from noon to 5 p.m. Friday and Saturday, Oct. 14 and 15. The public is invited to come meet the artists, watch technique demonstrations and enjoy some sweet treats. This year, Jill Trenholm has returned to the gallery. Her talents have taken her to the Southwest with singing engagements, and she has marketed a kindness program to schools. She returns with her “Sea Sprites,” fanciful faces made from clay, sea-glass and shells, and “Super Sea Stars” starfish that brighten every room. Painter Carol Thompson is celebrating 44 years as an artist. She has priced several originals at 1980s prices. Thompson’s specialty is painting the many moods of the ocean. She visits the ocean each day gathering in-

CLATSKANIE — The Clatskanie Arts Commission will present Grupo Condor, a touring folk music ensemble representing traditional styles of Spanish-speaking America, for a performance Friday, Oct. 14. The concert will take place at 7:30 p.m. at Clatskanie’s Birkenfeld Theatre, located at 75 S. Nehalem St. Grupo Condor’s concerts focus on the blend of Spanish, Native American, and African influences that have created the tri-cultural art form of Latin American music. The band combines high-energy entertainment with multicultural and educational information and exploration. The band has traveled throughout the U.S., Canada, Mexico and Europe. Members of Grupo Condor are natives of Mexico and Peru, and are currently residents of Oregon. The ensemble is dedicated to the preservation of their musical heritage, culture and traditions.

The instruments used by Grupo Condor are comprised of three groups: • the string family of Spanish influence, including the guitar, charango and ronroco; • the flute family of American influence, including the quenas, zampoñas and antaras; and • percussion instruments of both African and American influences, including the bombo leguero, chaj-chas, palo de lluvia and tambor de agua. During the concert, band members discuss the instrument names and origins between songs, giving the audience a more extended spectrum of the music itself. Tickets are $18 for adults, $16 for seniors age 60 and older and students, and $14 for children age 12 and under. Seating is limited. Tickets are available at Hump’s Restaurant in Clatskanie. They may also be reserved at will-call by calling Elsa Wooley at 503728-3403 or 503-338-9770. Tickets will also be available at the ticket booth, which opens at 7 p.m. the night of the performance.

WATER MUSIC FESTIVAL

Hot club jazz group Pearl Django started in Tacoma, Washington, in 1994 and has released 12 albums since. The group will perform Friday with vocalist Gail Pettis.

THE 32ND ANNUAL FESTIVAL OFFERS SWINGING JAZZ, CAPTIVATING FLUTE AND GUITAR, AND CLASSICAL PIANO OCT. 14 AND 15 ON THE LONG BEACH PENINSULA

By MARILYN GILBAUGH

n 1717, reigning English monarch King George I requested from Georg Friedrich Handel a composition that could be performed on a barge on the Thames River, a high-end boat party done

right. Handel, doing his best to stay in the king’s good graces — or what we might today call “on the payroll” — got busy. He created a collection of orchestral movements he divided into three suites. He fittingly called his work “Water Music.” In our own area, the Water Music Festival’s 32nd season

is going strong, culminating in performances Oct. 14 and 15 on the Long Beach Peninsula. And like Handel’s three-part suite, the Water Music Festival now divides itself into three distinct musical offerings, which it presents in three distinct settings. But it didn’t always. The Water Music Festival first

began in 1984. Minus royal requests and fanfare, a small group of classical music lovers gathered in Oysterville, Washington, located at the northern tip of Washington’s Long Beach Peninsula. The area is bordered by Willapa Bay and the Pacific Ocean, so, as

Continued on Pg. 11

OCTOBER 13, 2016 // 11

Continued from Pg. 10 in Handel’s case, “Water Music” was a fitting name. The group was the genesis of the festival. At its inception, it was an all-Baroque offering, but the Water Music Festival’s popularity soon expanded into other musical genres and venues — always true to its founding aims to bring superb music into the area. And year after year it has continued to do so. So here it is, that time of year when music lovers count the days until the festival’s 2016 line-up arrives and then mark their calendars for the 2017 event. Worldclass musicians take over the peninsula from Ilwaco up to Oysterville. Each and every year somehow the people who put the Water Music Festival together get it right. This coming weekend, organizers are ready and set to go with swinging jazz, a captivating flutist/ guitar duo and a classical pianist promising to captivate audiences. On Friday, Oct.14 at Ilwaco’s Inn at Harbor Village, doors open at 6:30 p.m. for socializing and a no-host wine bar. At 7:30 p.m., Pearl Django sets things swinging, playing gypsy, swing or hot club jazz made famous in Paris in the ’30s by Reinhart Django. Guitarists Neal Andersson and Tim Lerch, bassist Rick Leppanen, violinist Michael Gray and accordionist David Lange make their magic with an expansive repertoire and original compositions. “We play and we sing, we solo, we perform original pieces and we play the standards. This is what we do and we’ve been doing it for a couple of decades,” said Gray. Guest soloist Gail Pettis, hailed as NW Vocalist of the Year in 2010 by the Earshot Jazz Society, will lend and blend what has been dubbed her deliciously soulful sound. Pearl Django and Pettis have performed throughout the U.S. and internationally. Name a locale and they have probably played there. And Pearl Django is just about to release a CD — its 13th. Built circa 1892, Oysterville’s historic church has some of the best acoustics around. At noon Saturday, Oct. 15, the church will host the Cavatina Duo, made up of guitarist Denis Azabagic and flutist Eugenia Moliner. Said to astonish and delight by the Herald Tribune, the husbandand-wife team perform, live and travel the world together ad dedicated soloists and chamber musicians. “People want to know how we feel sharing the stage,” said Moliner. “It

sounds like I’m exaggerating but it’s true: As musicians we are engrossed in what is very, very, special. There is something very trusting. My husband is my best

friend. We have our own time but we are very lucky to be able to work together, sharing our passion for music.” Combining their instruments with their

range of repertoire that breaks convention, they offer their audiences new perspectives on making music. It’s great news for lucky ticket holders on Saturday evening. That’s when the remarkable Leadbetter Farms opens its estate gates (literally) at 6 p.m. Welcome to magic land both inside and out. An hour-long no-host wine and nibbles along with background music by Illwaco High School sophomore Lily Doupé and her guitar will set the tone for the 7 p.m. program. The disappointing news for the ticketless: The Saturday evening concert is sold out. (As advised earlier: Get next year’s dates on your calendars.) Saturday evening’s program brings international classical pianist Tien Hsieh front and center. Combining her classical talents and a love of travel, accolades follow her where ever and whenever she appears. The New York Concert Review called her performance “unusually impressive” and “compelling” after a recital at Carnegie Hall. Awards, recordings — her latest hitting number one on Amazon in May 2015 in classical and keyboard categories — the list goes on. A prizewinner of the Los Angeles International Liszt Competition, Hsieh is the daughter of a classical pianist. “I was basically playing the piano before I was born,” she said. Her exquisite talent, a warm and approachable personality, and her sense of humor mingle together delivering a delightful and remarkable presentation. “I love what I do,” she said. At 32 years old, the Water Music Festival continues to provide two days of memorable music, mixing top artistic variety, pleasing peninsula audiences as well as travelers who come year after year from near and far. In 2013, fundraising to support music in area schools became a part of giving back to the community. Each year, a portion of ticket proceeds from festival events are donated to the local schools, enriching the musical environment for students. And each year, one of the festival’s performers visits area schools. On Monday, Oct. 17, Tien Hsieh will share her talents with peninsula students in the Water Music Festival’s artist outreach program. “I know, I know, I know. Each year I say this year is extraordinary. And each year it is!” said Diane Marshall, festival board vice president and concert chair. Tickets remain for the first two concerts Oct. 14 and 15.

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

Part One: Rogue craft beers showcase innovative flavors Review by MOUTH OF THE COLUMBIA

MOUTH@COASTWEEKEND.COM

We’re doing something different this week (and next). This review of Rogue Ales Public House will arrive in two parts. This week will focus on the beer. Next week will focus on the food (and deliver the star rating).

Coming of age in Eugene alongside the bubbling craft brewing revolution, Rouge was an early favorite, perhaps the first beer whose flavor I recognized as something artisan and fine. (A graphic designer at the time, I also much appreciated Rogue’s art — the skeleton perched atop a barrel on Dead Guy, as well as the steady stream of righteous and revolutionary-themed stencil-style prints on 22-ounce bottles.) This was around the turn of the millennium, and I would announce to anyone who would listen: Rogue was my favorite beer. The world seemed to agree. At Rogue Ales Public House in Astoria, the western wall — nearly the size of a barn’s — is littered with recognition not only for a flagship variety, but damn near the whole lot. Beer after beer boasts multiple, often recent “world champion” awards. In the last decade, as the industry has grown exponentially around the Newport-based brewer, the collection is ever more impressive. At the same time, it’s a whole lot harder to pick a favorite beer or brewery in 2016 than it was in 2006. The competition has become equally vast and illustrious. A few of those competitors — or is it compatriots? — have taken root in Astoria. I think first of the engaged institution that is Fort George Brewery, then the blossoming Buoy Beer Co. Compared to them, Rogue — whose headquarters is in Newport — can seem a bit of an afterthought on the North Coast. This figures,

in part because Fort George and Buoy are homegrown, and also because they’re planted downtown (Rogue is on the east end of town at Pier 39). Nevertheless, Rogue’s beer (and food, which we’ll get to) are every bit as enticing, thoughtful aspirants as the hometown varieties. Sometimes even more so. My trips to Rogue began — and will forever begin henceforth — with a tasting tray. Too often, breweries get it wrong.

It reminded me of Rogue’s soaring prices in the grocery store, well outpacing their competitors. Surely quality comes at a cost, but over the years I’ve essentially been priced out of Rogue at the supermarket. That led to a gap in my enjoyment of the brewery’s craft that I’ve reinvigorated at the Astoria public house. After all these years, Rogue remains my favorite. Tune in next week for a review of the food.

MANZANITA — How do you restore tidal channels and wetland habitat in floodplain areas that have historically be diked and disconnected? The Lower Nehalem Watershed Council’s kick-off event for its 2016-17 speaker series will aim to answer that question. Dick Vander Schaaf, associate director of the Coast and Marine Conservation Program for The Nature Conservancy, will talk about the Kilchis Estuary Restoration Project, which focuses on restoring critical habitat for native salmon in Tillamook Bay. The event will take place Thursday, Oct. 13 at Pine Grove Community House, 225 Laneda Ave. Doors open at 6:30 p.m. for refreshments. The presentation will start at 7:20 p.m. following an update from the Lower Nehalem Watershed Council at 7 p.m. The event is free and open to the public. The Nature Conservancy purchased a former dairy farm in 2010 on the lower Kilchis River with the intention to restore the tidal wetland habitat that once dominated. The Conservancy used hydrologic modeling to develop restoration scenarios for the project and to foresee impacts due to climate change. Vander Schaaf’s presentation will step through the planning and restoration process and discuss future work at the site. The project also has broader implications for wetland restoration on agricultural lands in Tillamook County. Joining Vander Schaaf on

COURTESY OF THE NATURE CONSERVANCY

At the Kilchis Estuary Preserve in Tillamook County, The Nature Conservancy is working to restore the land of a former dairy farm to tidal wetland habitat.

Oct. 13 will be Tillamook County Community Development Planner Hilary Foote, who will give a short introduction to Senate Bill 1517. Sometimes called the Oregon Wetlands Bill, it designates Tillamook County as the site for a 10-year pilot project to create a land-use review process where the restoration and agricultural communities of the county can engage in an exploration of the ways in which the agricultural use of high-value farmland can be preserved in coordination with wetlands restoration and enhancement to the benefit of the larger community. SB-1517 resulted from Oregon’s 2016 legislative session in response to the restoration work at the Kilchis Estuary Preserve. Vander Schaaf provides leadership and oversight in coastal and marine projects that guide and support The Nature Conservancy’s conservation work in Oregon. He leads estuary conservation activities on Oregon’s North Coast, coordinates the Conservancy’s involvement in marine reserve implementation in Oregon’s territorial waters, and is working on climate change adaptation as

it relates to coastal conservation. Before focusing on coastal conservation issues, Vander Schaaf directed ecoregional conservation assessment work for the Oregon Nature Conservancy and led The Nature Conservancy’s effort at public lands conservation in Oregon. He has been with the Conservancy since 1983 when he was the Cascade Head field intern. He has a Master of Science in ecology from the University of Oregon and a Master of Planning from the University of Oregon’s Urban and Regional Planning Department. Foote is a land-use planner for Tillamook County focusing on farm and forest uses and is the project manager for the implementation of SB-1517. In her spare time she runs a grass-fed beef cattle operation in Nehalem with her husband. Prior to moving to the North Coast, Foote spent over a decade working in utility-scale renewable energy development and regulatory affairs.

Rulers of the disco era, the fraternal purveyors of nine #1 hits, including “Stayin’ Alive” and “Night Fever,” seemed destined to have their songs trotted out for nostalgic purposes only — on Oldies Night, say, in the lounge of the airport Holiday Inn. But then Al Green cov-

ered “How Can You Mend a Broken Heart” so well no one else had to sing it again. And songs like “How Deep Is Your Love” showed staying power with their delicate sense of melody. But this is 2016, and the new release up for consideration is “In the Now.” It comes from the last surviving Bee Gee, Barry Gibb, who soldiers on without his late brothers, Robin and Maurice. Gibb, who did a nostalgia tour a few years ago, is doing something braver now: offering original music. The

songs, co-written with his two sons, are sometimes corny and too wordy. But Gibb still has a striking sense of melody, and there are poignant lyrics here — most notably on songs that are themselves nostalgia trips, like “End of the Rainbow” and “Home Truth Song.” Gibb seems to honor his brothers on that one when he sings: “We stand together in a one-man show.” Will the new songs hold up? Hey, no predictions here. A lot of us were wrong the first time.

Bruce Springsteen talks depression, family and his new memoir By JOCELYN GECKER ASSOCIATED PRESS

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Bruce Springsteen credits his music with helping him navigate depression and says playing marathon shows until he was exhausted helped chase away the blues. The legendary rock star spoke to a sold-out crowd in San Francisco Oct. 5 in a one-hour, 20-minute on-stage interview as part of a nationwide tour for his best-selling new autobiography “Born To Run.” “The Boss” has a storyteller’s knack for recounting the past in vivid detail, with quick wit and humor. He discussed the labored process of writing the book, which took seven years, his troubled relationship with his father, sweet memories of raising his children with wife and longtime backup singer, Patti Scialfa, and his history with depression, as he does in the book. “I think music was the way that I medicated myself in the beginning. It was the first thing that centered me and chased away the blues,”

Springsteen said, seated in an armchair beside his interviewer on stage at the historic Nourse Theater. “I found that the experience of playing cleared my mind and gave me a brief moment of respite from the things that tended to disturb me,” he said. “I found out that exhaustion was my friend. Because if I got myself tired enough, I was simply too tired to be depressed.” Dressed in his uniform of jeans and a black leather jacket, Springsteen is a youthful 67. The only visible nods to his age: A slightly receding hairline and a need for reading glasses — he calls them “cheaters” — when asked to read from his book. He joked about the seven-year writing process for his 508-page book: “Yeah, that sounds like I did a lot more work than I did,” drawing laughter. He wrote when it moved him, dictating one section at a time to an assistant, “who would put it in the computer.” He edited and rewrote until he figured, “Well, that’s as good as I can do without somebody’s help.”

The father of three said he tried to keep his stardom away from home. “There wasn’t any memorabilia around the house, we didn’t have any of that stuff out. We had some guitars and a piano,” Springsteen said. “We never made a big deal of it in the house.” Well into their teens, his children were “relatively unfamiliar with most of the work I’d done,” he said, “which is very normal. I mean, I wasn’t out there looking for three more fans,” pausing for laughter. “Your job is you’re supposed to be their audience. They’re not supposed to be yours,” Springsteen said. The book “Born to Run” came out in late September and has risen to the top of best-seller lists. But Springsteen doubts he’s got a sequel in him: “I think this is my swan song. I can’t imagine writing another one.”

Portland author Liz Prato to appear at Hoffman Center Author to lead writing workshop, read short stories MANZANITA — Author Liz Prato will read from her short story collection “Baby’s On Fire” at 7 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 15 at the Hoffman Center for the Arts, located at 594 Laneda Ave. The event is part of the Manzanita Writers’ Series. Born and raised in Denver, Colorado, Prato attended Lewis & Clark College in Portland. Her short stories and essays have appeared in over 24 literary journals and magazines, including Hayden’s Ferry Review, Carve, Iron Horse Literary Review and Hunger Mountain. She was the guest prose editor for the Summer 2013 issue of VoiceCatcher, and she is the editor at large for Forest Avenue Press, where she edited the fiction anthology “The Night, and the Rain, and the River.” Her short story collection “Baby’s on Fire” was published in 2015.

Author Liz Prato will teach a writing workshop and read from her book of short stories Oct. 15 in Manzanita.

A Tennessee Williams Scholar at the 2012 Sewanee Writers Conferece and a frequent attendee of the Tin House Summer Writers Workshop, Prato has studied with Steve Almond, Aimee Bender, Charles D’Ambrosio, Anthony Doerr, Jim Shepard and other talented authors. She has won the 2010 Minnetonka Review Editor’s Prize, first place in

the 2005 Berkeley Fiction Review Sudden Fiction Contest and four Pushcart Prize nominations. She lives with her furry feline friends and her best friend/husband, who is a bookseller, musician and writer in Portland. Prato has been teaching writing since 2008 and presents at literary festivals and conferences across the country. She will lead a writ-

ing workshop before her author reading during the day from 1 to 3 p.m. at the Hoffman Center. In “Writing Outside the Box (Lecture & Guided Writing),” Prato will help students let their creativity rein and write outside the traditional prose structure. All stories and essays are different, so it stands to reason they don’t all require the same structure. In this class, students will break out of the standard narrative box and have fun exploring the forms available for telling their best story. Tuition is $30. Register online at hoffmanblog.org Following Prato’s reading and question-and-answer session in the evening, the Manzanita Writers’ Series will host its popular Open Mic where up to nine local or visiting writers will read five minutes of their original work. The suggested (not required) theme for the evening’s Open Mic is “characters.” Admission for the evening reading is $7.

How to stay sane when you and your spouse work at home Jewelry raffle tickets to Baby boomers moving into semi-retirement or new careers often find themselves working at least some of the time from home — and maybe sharing the space with their spouse or significant other. That might entail more togetherness than a couple originally bargained for. Some delicate maneuvering and careful planning, however, can maintain peace, productivity and personal space all at once. “It’s tough, and it definitely takes some figuring to make it work, but it can also be wonderful,” says Joy Parisi, co-founder and owner of Paragraph, a working space for writers in New York City.

hours, especially if you’re both going to be at home working at the same time,” says Kerry Hannon, a motivational speaker, AARP jobs expert and author of “Getting the Job You Want After 50 for Dummies.” She works from home, as does her spouse. Lori Leibovich, editor of RealSimple.com, says that if space is an issue, “designate separate office hours or take turns leaving the house.” “Ideally, though, there should be a wall between your workspaces,” she says. Good fences — and separate phone lines — also make good neighbors. “Be sure you set up your technology so your home and office are separate entities and you don’t have to fight over a phone line,” Hannon says.

es to lessen distractions Many shared offices are divided into quiet workspaces and a shared social area.

Create work-free zones It’s essential to have zones where you can focus on intimacy and leave stress-causing topics behind, says Pepper Schwartz, a relationships expert with AARP’s Life Reimagined, an online resource to help people navigate life transitions. “You need to be sure you make time and space for yourselves as a couple, and also time as individuals to do yoga or meet friends or do something for yourself, so you don’t end up working a 7-day week and feeling like you’ve lost yourself.”

Compromise “It’s important to make a policy about how you share the practical tasks or take care of the kids or walk the dogs,” says Schwartz. Hannon said she had to compromise at times when her husband set up his work at the dining-room table instead of in his home office. Parisi said she or her husband sometimes head off to Paragraph to work when doing so at home is too challenging. “Anecdotally, the whole economy is moving in this direction. We’re so plugged in now that even if you work from an office, you’ll end up doing some of your work from home,” Leibovich says. “It may take some creativity, and some compromises, to get it right.”

Learn computer coding at South Bend public library SOUTH BEND, Wash. — A computer coding club is starting up at a Timberland Regional Library in Pacific County. Learning to code can lead to a career in computer programming — but it most likely will help develop valuable life skills such as rational thinking, creative problem-solving, ingenuity and persistence. Plus, club members get to learn more about computers and how they work. In October, the South Bend Timberland Library will start a Code Club for all skill levels, including beginners. The club is recommended for ages 8 and older. The club meets from 3:30 to 5 p.m. Fridays on Oct. 14, 21, 28; Nov. 4; Dec. 2, 9, 16 and 23. The Code Club software was created by a

company called Prenda for library-based learning. The application guides students according to individual experience levels and learning styles. The software also provides social links between students, encouraging a fun and motivating community experience at the library. Participants may bring a laptop or borrow a library computer, while supplies last. For more information, call the South Bend Timberland Library at 360-8755532. The library is located at First Street and Pacific Avenue. The Timberland Regional Library system is also launching two other Code Clubs at Elma Timberland Library in Grays Harbor County and Lacey Timberland Library in Thurston County.

Puffin hones its pinot pedigree By STEVE SINKLER FOR EO MEDIA GROUP

The calendar has turned to October, the temperatures are cooler and the leaves are falling. All signs point to the same conclusion: Fall is here. In wineries across the Pacific Northwest, the 2016 harvest is mostly complete, and grapes that were on the vine not long ago are now safely in oak barrels or stainless steel tanks. At Puffin wines, things aren’t any different. All of the fruit has been picked, and fermentation has begun. The wines smell great, and we’re expecting 2016 to be another stellar vintage. I look forward to pouring those wines for you in a few months (or years). Until then, we’ll have to continue enjoying the Puffin wines we made during the past couple of years. Our Puffin chardonnay 2015 is a perfect white wine for fall. This isn’t your typical chardonnay, as it combines tropical flavors of mango and papaya with notes of hazelnut. This slightly creamy wine reminds me of a white burgundy, which is typically 100 percent chardonnay. Enjoy this wine with grilled chicken and roasted root vegetables or creamy cheese ravioli. For those of you who prefer something red in your glass, Puffin has several delicious options for you this fall, starting with our Puffin pinot noir 2013. This elegant pinot was the result of a challenging growing season, but it con-

tinues to amaze me. Silky smooth, this pinot noir has smoky earth flavors combined with dark fruit to more closely resemble a Burgundy Premier Cru than a Willamette Valley wine. Puffin pinot noir is a perfect companion to roast turkey, game, salmon, pork roast or portabella. The newest release in our portfolio is a Puffin red blend (non-vintage). Released in late September, winemaker John Derthick has combined Walla Walla syrah, merlot and malbec with Dundee Hills pinot noir to create a delicious fruit-forward wine. This easy drinking red wine offers robust flavors of red cherry and raspberry that beg for grilled burgers, pizza or pasta with marinara sauce. We only made 100 cases of this red blend, and based on customer response so far, we should’ve made a lot more.

2013 was the first vintage of Puffin cabernet sauvignon, and it’s been a smash! This delicious single-vineyard Walla Walla cabernet sauvignon has been popular with customers. Packed with big red fruit flavors with slight notes of black tea, this wine’s mouthfeel has softened a bit since it was first released, but it’s still big enough to let you know it has a Walla Walla pedigree. This wine goes nicely with roast beef, rib-eye or just a cool evening. We are coming to the end of the 2013 vintage, but our 2014 Puffin cabernet sauvignon should be ready for release later this fall. So, as the weather changes and the temperatures drop, Puffin has a lineup of wines that are perfect for fall. This fall, you’ll get a couple of opportunities to taste this entire lineup. Based on customer feedback, I plan to pour the Puffin lineup during our Saturday wine tastings a bit more often than in the past. You can find The Wine Shack’s Saturday tasting room schedule on our website, www. thewineshack.wine, our Facebook page “Cannon Beach Wine Shack” or in our Cannon Beach Gazette advertisement. We look forward to seeing you at The Shack. Please remember to drink responsibly. Steve Sinkler is the owner of Puffin Wines and The Wine Shack in Cannon Beach. He writes a monthly column about wine in the Cannon Beach Gazette.

COLUMBIA BAR

Big O’s Hot Toddy By RYAN HUME

During a recent spate of rain, I was able to take shelter at the Olney Saloon, known colloquially as the Big O, and probably the best country bar on the North Coast. A few things had changed since I last came in. Eight years after being purchased, owners Shawrron and Dale Searls continue to make improvements, including putting on a new metal roof and finishing off a bricked patio area. Decked out with antlers, saw-blades and a collection of license plates from places near and far, expect even more warm wood paneling in the future, which Dale Searls mills himself and installs on the weekends. Known for accommodating a slew of colorful regulars at any given time, I was surprised to find the bar, and a heaping basket of peanuts, all to myself, which gave me ample opportunity to chat up owner

Shawrron Searls and bartender Martha Stephens. Martha warmed my gullet with a classic Hot Toddy on a chilly afternoon and spoke kindly of her time tossing booze and draining kegs behind the bar in Olney. While it’s always a good idea to tip your bartender, consider that the stakes are raised at such an eccentric establishment. Stephens has been tipped with fresh salmon, chanterelle mushrooms and even a mounted boar’s head, which currently hangs in her bathroom at home. That’s got to count for more than 20 percent. Ingredients 1.5 ounces Maker’s Mark, Jameson,

or other whiskey 2 slices lemon 1 slice lime 2 shakes ground cinnamon 1 shake ground nutmeg 1 heavy tablespoon honey Hot water Directions

Inside a stemmed coffee cup, muddle the lemon slices with the lime, cinnamon, nutmeg and honey. Once aromatic, add your whiskey of choice and top off the glass with hot water.
