NOTES FROM THE EDITOR

A novice goes mushroom hunting If you ask, most people (that’s all I’m allowed to

around here have an opinion on mushroom hunting:

“It’s not wet enough yet. We need some more rain.” “The best time is when the sun comes out after the rain, then wait a few days. The mushrooms will pop —” “But you don’t want it to be too hot; they’ll dry up! Or too wet; they can go moldy in one day. The best is warm weather with sustained moisture.” “We got some spectacular bumper mushrooms at Thanksgiving: super Àavorful and no one else was hunting. But there is the risk of frost that late.” One thing they all agree on: “Ah, last year was a great one for mushrooms.” Well, I’m not a pro in any sense, so I’ll take the advice from the notoriously closelipped mushroom foragers. I recently went mushroom hunting for the ¿rst time. Admittedly, it was a bit early: Rain poured down, and though we spotted some LBMs (aka little brown mushrooms), we came up empty on the edible kind. A second foraging trip somewhere near Gnat Creek

say!) produced better results. Searching the forest, we found golden chanterelles as well as some old lobster mushrooms. Mushroom hunting is an odd business. You slowly comb the ground, eyes roving this way and that for a glimpse of fungi. You closely inspect the bases of trees, head to fallen stumps, brush ferns back to coax those sweet meats out of their camouÀage. You’re on the hunt, and each time you unmask a mushroom from

the dirt, your heart skips a beat. With a satis¿ed grin, you pluck it from its hiding place. We didn’t leave with basketfuls, but it was a ¿ne haul on a lovely day. The sun was warm, the creek gurgled pleasantly nearby, and the forest smelled earthy and alive. After our hike, we decided to continue east to Westport and catch the $5 ferry to Puget Island. With minutes to spare, we stopped at the West Mart Grocery to pick up some jojos (which, my friends informed me, are the best jojos around). By then, it was 3 p.m. on a Friday, which meant the Puget Island Farmers Market was starting. The market continues through the month; the last day is Halloween, Oct. 31. At the market, we were greeted by a colorful display of winter squash. Other farm-

A multimission force, the U.S. Coast Guard is the military branch responsible for an array of maritime duties. It is both a federal law enforcement agency and a uniformed military force. Nationally nearly 42,000 active duty Coast Guard officers and enlisted personnel defend civilians, usually in America, but members also get deployed. Housed under the Department of Homeland Security, the Coast Guard is responsible for 11 official maritime-related missions, including port and water security, drug busts, navigation aid, search and rescue, law enforcement and maritime environmental safety.

ASTORIA — Downtown merchants and galleries will hold Astoria’s Second Saturday Art Walk from 5 to 8 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 11.

Walk around historic downtown Astoria, and look for the colorful pinwheels.

ART BUSINESSES

The Nelson Cathedral in New Zealand, photographed here by Andrew E. Cier, is glorious in all its history. Cier’s new “Haunts” exhibit at Winnifred Byrne Luminari Arts features photographs matted on Victorian picture album pages.

“Obovate,” a lathe-turned Madrone vessel by Helga Winter at Imogen Gallery.

1. Imogen Gallery 240 11th St. Helga Winter returns to Imogen Gallery for her second solo exhibition, “Shadow Play.” Shadow, an elusive marking of the physical, can delight, frighten, obscure and distort. The word can also imply the work of the soul, representing the past. In this series, Winter explores the nuance of shadow, bringing her colorful lathe turned Madrone vessels, a new series of figurative encaustic paintings as well as sculptural paintings that use vintage books and paper. Light bites and drink will be provided by Astoria Coffeehouse and Bistro. Shadow Play is on view through Nov. 4.

2. Old Town Framing Company 1287 Commercial St. Old Town Framing welcomes the Plein Air Drawing Group for this month’s art walk. About 10 local artists will display paintings, drawings and some 3D works. Artists include Marga Stanley, Vicki Baker, Greg Darms and Noel Thomas. Pieces will be for sale, and most artists will be at the reception. 3. RiverSea Gallery 1160 Commercial St. RiverSea Gallery presents shows for October. “Water & Oil” is a collaborative show featuring watercolors by Noel Thomas and oil paintings by Robert Paulmenn. They say oil and water don’t mix, but these two Astoria artists disprove that old aphorism with an exciting body of work starring Astoria and its denizens. For months they have been painting together and alone, indoors and en plein air, encouraging and

inspiring each other to create this richly varied show. In the Alcove, Seattle blacksmith Lauren Osmolski offers metal sculpture inspired by animal spirits in “Woodland Muse.” Forged in fire, shaped with hammer, tongs and anvil, each elegantly formed sculpture portrays the essence of a bird or forest creature. Enigmatic masks and graceful, minimalist free-standing sculptures make up the show. 4. Tempo Gallery 1271 Commercial St. The bison of artist Edward L. Peterson will be roaming Tempo Gallery. Peterson’s paintings, titled “My West,” depict a variety of icons of the American

West through a combination of strong bold subject matter in vibrant colors and thick textures. Stop by to meet the artist and view his paintings. Refreshments will be served. 5. KALA 1017 Marine Drive Join host Josh Conklin for a Cabaret Show & Dance Party at KALA. Starting at 9 p.m., enjoy song and comedy by local performing artists following this month’s Second Saturday Art Walk, then flow into a dance party to culminate the eve. KALA opens at 8 p.m. for cocktails, featuring various KALA artists on the gallery walls. There is a $5 cover.

6. Fernhill Glass 1450 Exchange St. 7. Ratz & Company 260 10th St. Dave McMacken shows paintings and his early work in the rock ‘n’ roll biz, which garnered him a place in the Album Cover Hall of Fame. Also see work by Frank Zappa’s art guru Calvin Schenkel; Jackie Avery, a Portland painter; and Emma Davis, a Portland interior designer and artist. 8. Laughing Duck Digital Pond 120 10th St., Suite. 3 Stop by to see a new series called “Gypsy Queen” and new views of past exhibits. A little corner will be dedicated to portraits. Have your picture taken professionally.

9. Winnifred Byrne Luminari Arts 1133 Commercial St. Step back in time with “Haunts,” an exhibit by local photographer Andrew E. Cier. The images in the series illustrate Cier’s fascination with the past and have been taken at various locations around the world over the past 34 years. Viewers will encounter New Zealand cathedrals and English cemeteries, Oregon lighthouses and abandoned ghost towns, historic buildings and more. “The images selected are intended to be thought provoking — a way of seeing beauty in the otherworldly without the usual spooky Halloween representation,” says Cier.


Instead, find the “hauntingly beautiful, images seared into memory, reminiscent of the past, chronicling curious places with mesmerizing details ... a shrine, a marker, tributes and memorials that beckon ... somber apparitions that hearken to your soul.� Reflecting an interest in framing styles and techniques, Cier artfully employs paper frames — lifted from the pages of a Victorian photo album — with his photos. The opening night of “Haunts� may haunt you with the appropriate seasonal ambiance of fashion, lights and sounds, including Cier’s creative water features. Vintage Hardware 101 15th St. Artist James Russell shows his eclectic, whimsical shadow boxes in “Broken Dolls or Broken Hearts.�

Rating: Â?Â?Â?

PRICE: Prices hover in the $5 to $6 region, and top out at $10 — certainly reasonable for what you receive.

2506 Pacific Ave N Long Beach, WA 98631 360-642-2774

SERVICE: The faces are friendly, and the food is prepared fast — what’s not to like?

14 | October 9, 2014 | coastweekend.com

It is a piece of a forgotten era, a simpler time, and a wonderful place when you’re in the mood for good ol’ American-style comfort food.

ATMOSPHERE: There aren’t really tables inside, to

speak of, although you can eat at tables outside. As the name suggests, it’s a drive-in: You park, order inside, wait for a few minutes, and drive home while the smell of French fries drives your taste-buds crazy. ALTERNATIVE OPTIONS: There’s a garden burger — that has to count for something, right? DRINKS: A variety of soft drinks and delicious, old-fashioned milkshakes.

Interested in promoting their work professionally, the High Fiber Diet artists challenge each other to become more educated about art and design principles and to expand their repertoire by focusing on creativity. Each piece in the show speaks to the diverse and deep artistic background of each artist. From traditional-look-

The name for the group comes from the title of a memoir, “The House of All Sorts,â€? by Canadian author and painter Emily Carr, which chronicles the daily life at a rooming house she ran for “all sortsâ€? of zany characters. In the realm of music, “consortâ€? is an antiquated term for a group of instruments or voices, which allows for the addition of other instruments as they are needed. The name leaves open the possibility of exploring music from other periods in addition to the baroque. Since many traditional Celtic tunes originated in 18th century during the baroque period, their inclusion in this program is appropriate. The concert is free, and donations are welcome to help support the Clatsop Animal Assistance program and the food pantry operated by Grace Episcopal Church.

Hailing from South Carolina, Johnson moved to Portland with her husband in 2001. “My primary job is Mommy, and when I can, I squeeze in some art projects,� she says. “My originals are made, in general but not always, of layered acrylic sheets on birch wood backings or on the glass of vintage windows with wood backings. My husband or I then take high-resolution photos of the originals, then I can make archival prints and mount the prints in between an acrylic sheet and birch wood backing and paint the

WENDY and JEREMY WILSON of THE WAY BACKS

By RYAN HUME

Graveyard [greıv•yärd]

By RYAN HUME Like the name implies, The Way Backs go way back. Old friends and longtime collaborators Jeff and Wendy Wilson, Susannah “Little Sue” Weaver, Jenny Conlee-Drizos and Paul Brainard have been on the Portland music scene for over 20 years and have contributed to a number of notable groups, including The Dharma Bums, The Flatirons, Spoon and The Decemberists just to name a few. Having shared the stage and the recording booth numerous times before, come watch these friends join together officially under a new moniker at 8 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 11 at the Sou’Wester Lodge, located at 3728 J Place in Seaview, Washington. Learn more about some of their various solo projects, records and other projects at paulbrainard.com, littlesue.bandcamp.com and jeremywilson.bandcamp.com Submitted photos by Miriphoto and Amy McMullen Photography

First, could you tell me about how this show and the project The Way Backs came about? Wendy Wilson: Jeremy and I got married earlier this year in April, and we had this weekend celebration planned at the Sou’Wester — it made sense to play since all these amazing musicians would be there. Is there a guiding principle or aesthetic to The Way Backs that differs from any of the other projects you have worked on together? What excites you the most about your upcoming show on Saturday, Oct. 11? Wendy Wilson: No guiding principle or aesthetic other than we’ve all worked together before and trust each other’s taste. Since we’ve all known each other for such a long time, and have played with each other in various groups, the most exciting part will be performing together, as a group, for the first time. You have all been contributing to each other’s projects for a number of years now. How does this shared history affect the music you play together today? Wendy Wilson: We are old friends and have an appreci-

ation for what each person does. I think that comes across in the music and the rapport we have with one another. Charity seems to play a large role in your musical lives. In fact, Jeremy runs his own charity, The Jeremy Wilson Foundation, which helps musicians facing financial hardship due to medical emergencies, while many of you often play benefits and charity events. Could you tell me how this idea of community transfers into your music? Jeremy Wilson: It’s sort of impossible to be an “out in the world” performer, if you’re connecting with the people you play for, and not create community around music scenes. It’s inherent in what musicians do. They create gatherings and celebrations. Everyone involved in this group has literally played hundreds of benefits for everything you can imagine under the sun. In fact, musicians are called upon to play benefits for others so often, that I decided it was time to form an organization that gave back to musicians when they need help, i.e. The Jeremy Wilson Foundation was born out of community

noun 1. a burial ground, esp. a small one or one on a church’s lot 2. a place for discarded or obsolete objects: <a ship graveyard> 3. Informal. GRAVEYARD OF THE PACIFIC: Nautical nickname for the stretch of tumultuous coastline reaching from Tillamook Bay, Oregon to Cape Scott on Vancouver Island, British Columbia, Canada. Origin:

and necessity. Our music inherently creates community, and, also, everyone involved in this group sings about real-world and real-personal issues that, like the writers themselves, the average person can relate to. For your set at the Sou’Wester, will you be pulling from your various back catalogs, playing original material, or focusing on covers and traditionals, or maybe a little of all of the above? With so many multi-instrumentalists in the group, what sort of arrangement should the audience expect to see? Jeremy Wilson: All of the above, really, when it comes to songs. We’ll be doing stuff from Sue’s new album, also stuff from my new album. We’ll also be playing some of our favorite (though rather obscure) covers. You can expect to hear, as far as instrumentation goes, our jack-ofall-trades Paul Brainard contributing guitar, pedal steel and trumpet. Jen will be playing accordion and possibly piano (if it’s in tune!) and you never know if Sue is going to pull

out her ukulele! So it will be a fun jam with each player choosing the instrument that best fits the songs and line-up.

1773. From grave + yard. “Grave” enters around 1250, from the pre-1000 Old English, grœf; cognate with the Old Frisian gref, both of which held the same

meaning. Before 1325, “yard” developed from the Old English, geard, along with the Old Saxon, gard. Related to GARDEN—v. to enclose in a yard. GRAVEYARD OF THE PACIFIC is believed to have entered the lexicon in the earliest days of the maritime fur trade, around 1800, and referred not only to the very real dangers of the regional sea and the Columbia River Bar in particular, but also to the constant state of warfare that consumed the area at the time, as Russia, Spain, Britain and native tribes battled for dominion. “The Columbia River Bar is a place of violence. Here the behemoths of the Pacific Ocean and the Columbia River collide in one long, never-ending car crash. Over 2,000 shipwrecks and 700 deaths have earned this stretch of water the moniker ‘The Graveyard of the Pacific.’”
