Beach Books to hold book reading, signing Grab a copy of Melissa Eskue Ousley’s ‘Sign of the Throne’ SEASIDE— Local author Melissa Eskue Ousley will read from her new young adult novel, “Sign of the Throne,” at 4 p.m. Saturday, Sept. 14 at a book launch party at Beach Books, located at 616 Broadway in Seaside. The story is about a girl named Abby, who is haunted by dreams of an ivory castle, blood-thirsty monsters and a striking stranger. When Abby encounters David, the doppelgänger of the mysterious young man in her dreams, she realizes her nightmares come true. Braving the attacks of shape-shifting bogeymen, Abby and David must find a way to save a magical realm and all of humanity – even if it means losing each other. “Sign of the Throne” will be available for purchase at independent bookstores and on Amazon. For every book sold during the first week of its release (Sept. 14 to 21), the author will donate $1 to Clatsop Community College for student scholarships (up to $500). Eskue Ousley’s debut novel is the first book in The Solas Beir Trilogy. “I wanted to create a

smart book for the young adult audience that combines legends and psychological concepts in a fantasy story with adventure, romance, humor and an insidious evil hidden in plain view,” said Eskue Ousley, a former educator with interests in psychology and mythology. “‘Sign of the Throne’ is filled with mythological creatures and political intrigue. It’s a modern fairy tale featuring strong female characters both as heroines and villains.” Eskue Ousley lives in the Pacific Northwest with her family. When she’s not writing,

she can be found hiking, swimming, scuba diving, kayaking or walking along the beach, poking dead things with a stick. For more information on the author, visit her blog, http://melissaeskueousley. com, catch her on Good Reads, follow her on Twitter at @MEskueOusley and find her on Facebook.

Coastal Life Story by MARILYN GILBAUGH

Dogs on our beaches:

L

They run, jump, play – and rarely stand still

Lovey, a 15-week-old St. Bernard, and Winston, a 6-year-old lab, along with their owner, Claire McIntyre, are daily regulars on the Gearhart beach. Bailey is a 1-year-old $XVWUDOLDQ 6KHSKHUG $ ZHHNHQGHU Âż UVW RQ his agenda – if he has it his way – is getting out onto those long, sandy stretches – fast. +LV RZQHU 3DW 5HLWHQ VD\V RQH RI WKH Âż UVW words Bailey learned was “beach.â€? Dogs, dog owners and beaches: It’s an image as American as apple pie. $FFRUGLQJ WR UHFHQW Âż JXUHV SXEOLVKHG by the U.S. Humane Society, there are 78.2 million dogs in 46 percent of American households. 60 percent of those homes have one dog, 28 percent have two, and 12 percent have three or more. Those numbers come as no surprise to dog owners. Dogs often become part of the family. Patty Beall says that her daughter’s dog, Cooper, a 6-year-old golden retriever, “seems most of the time, not like a dog, but kind of a fourlegged dog-person. The only time we think of Cooper as a dog-dog is when he’s playing on the beach. “ With 350-plus miles of Oregon coastline, there’s a lot of room to run for a lot of dogs. In 1967 Gov. Tom McCall signed a law making all land within 16 feet of the average low tide mark on Oregon beaches public domain – forever. Protecting and preserving our ocean shores falls to the Oregon Parks and Recreation Department. All kinds of in-

teresting information can be found on their website, www.oregonstateparks.org, including rules for dogs and their keepers when on our beaches. Some of it reads, “Pets are welcome on most Oregon ocean beaches and usually don’t have to be leashed, although they must be under direct control of their owners (within sight and responsive to commands). Have a leash ready in case asked to restrain your pet by a park employee.â€? The non-leash rule applies to the beach, not to state parks and most coastal towns. Off the beaches, dogs generally must be on a leash. 6SHFLÂż F FRDVWDO WRZQ OHDVK ODZV FDQ EH RE tained online or by contacting city police departments. The city of Cannon Beach’s website, www.ci.cannon-beach.or.us, advises, “All beaches in the state of Oregon are designated public recreation areas and are jointly managed by both the state of Oregon and the local municipalities whose boundaries encompass portions of the beach. The foresight of the state in declaring beaches public recreation areas ensures that our beautiful beaches are free for everyone to enjoy and use, visitors and residents alike. Dogs are allowed on the beach, as long as they are on a leash or under voice control of the owner. It is the owner’s responsibility to ensure that the dog is physically controlled.â€? And ouroregoncoast.com has a plethora of pets and beach-related information.

Oregon state parks do require leashes, but elsewhere you can let your dog run free, splash in the waves, and – a popular exercise for local pets – chase seagulls. Rules of etiquette are basic no brainers: If your dog is off-leash, always pay attention and make sure he or she obeys your verbal commands. Don’t allow your pet to approach other people or animals unless invited. And of course, be prepared to clean up after your pet. If you and your pooch, or pooches, want HYHQ PRUH VSHFLÂż FV JR WR 'RJIULHQGO\ FRP 7KHUH \RX ZLOO Âż QG OLVWV RI ZKDW \RX DQG \RXU SHWV FDQ GR RQ VSHFLÂż F EHDFKHV DQG LQ towns – including dog-friendly restaurants, hotels and special dog events throughout the year. Some of the 54 percent of households ZLWKRXW D )LGR RU D )LÂż PD\ EH SHRSOH who purposely choose not to interact with your pooch. Dog owners should remember: Those 54 percent of people without a dog still constitute a majority. And another reminder: There are people on our beaches who truly fear dogs. Eva Wiserman, of Hammond Kennels, has some good advice if dog etiquette is not observed, or if you are someone who doesn’t want to interact with a dog and the dog doesn’t get the picture. “If approached by a dog, act like a tree. Plant your feet, wrap your arms around yourself and look up. Don’t make eye contact,â€? Wiserman says. “Usually a dog just wants

to sniff you and wag his or her tail. They are almost always genuinely happy to see you. If a dog acts menacing, the best thing to do is yell for help.â€? Common sense dictates that you never, whether a dog or a person, JHW LQ WKH PLGGOH RI D GRJ Âż JKW The Yellow Dog Project is an undertaking for dogs and for people who love dogs and those who don’t. Founded by Canadian dog trainer Tara Palardy, “the concept is simple: If your dog doesn’t want to be approached, put a yellow ribbon on his collar. The ribbon works as a signal to others to ask before coming near. Not all dogs who wear the ribbon are aggressive. Many just need space after surgery, are old or don’t like being approached too quickly,â€? wrote Eliza Collins in a USA Today article. Running, jumping or standing still, people and dogs are a part of our coastal life. Good manners and simple guidelines from both add to everyone’s continuing enjoyment of our state treasure, our glorious Oregon beaches.

While Oregon state parks do require leashes, elsewhere you can let your dog run free, splash in the waves, and (a popular exercise for local pets) chase seagulls.

Preservation released the original barn timbers from a defunct dairy farm near the Chehalis River to Johnson. Johnson and his neighbors installed the timber and beams while carefully preserving the historic integrity of the barn last year. Now, the next step is to purchase materials for the roof and get the roof on the barn. So come to a farmhouse dinner for a real “barn raising” experience.

ASTORIA — Downtown merchants and galleries will hold Astoria’s Second Saturday Art Walk from 5 to 8 p.m. Saturday, Sept. 14. Meet artists and mingle with friends and fellow art lovers while enjoying refreshments and new exhibits. There’s something for everyone. Just walk around historic downtown Astoria and look for the colorful pinwheels. Some locations are open earlier or later for art walk.

ART BUSINESSES

Old Town Framing 240 11th St. Old Town Framing presents multi-talented Reba Owen and her meticulous and playful watercolors during art walk. Owen knows her way around color, using a deft hand to detail her intricate pieces. With autumn right around the corner, she will present works focused on her favorite season: fall, portraying birds and nature. Also included will be imagery from her favorite holiday, Halloween. Proceeds from this show will go to the Wildlife Center of the North Coast.

Tempo Gallery 1271 Commercial St. Tempo Gallery’s newest member, Edward L. Peterson, is the gallery’s featured artist for September. Western Inspiration is the theme for Peterson’s work during the art work. The jazz group Grand Avenue, featuring Denise Reed on vocals, David Ambrose on stand-up bass and Lawrence Aldred on percussion, will provide live music. Refreshments will be served. Peterson was raised in the flat lands of north central Montana. Now residing in Kelso, Wash., Peterson has replaced directing musical groups with art. A self-taught artist, Peterson is particularly drawn to Western, Southwestern and Russian impressionists. “I want my art to show sensitivity and a sincere respect for the subject. I hope my bold colors and textures evoke a sense of curiosity,” he says. “The grain elevators I paint were once a proud piece of rural plains life, and I hope my paintings express their story of the life that has been in and around them. For me, each painting has a strong personality and presence ... I like to take an ordinary subject; painting it as I see it. I have an

Hopefully you will find a little mystery and intrigue.” RiverSea Gallery 1160 Commercial St. RiverSea Gallery presents a two-person show in September featuring biomorphic forms sculpted in wood by Laura Buchan and abstracted landscapes in encaustic by Karl Kaiser. Both artists will be on hand for the art walk reception. Refreshments will be served, and DJ Nachobizness will play a mix of ambient jazz. The artwork will remain on display through Oct. 1. Imogen Gallery 240 11th St. Taivassalo, a municipality located in the southwest region of Finland’s archipelago, is a place of personal importance to Portland artist Cynthia Lahti. Lahti will be exhibiting a collection of plein air paintings of the region. The

exhibition opens from 5 to 9 p.m. with a reception for Lahti, who will be present and available to answer questions about the series. Light bites and drink will be provided by Astoria Coffeehouse and Bistro. The Taivassalo Paintings will be on view through Oct. 8. KALA Gallery 1017 Marine Drive KALA presents “Sticking Together: New Ideas in Collage,” an exhibit that shows materials and methods that challenge traditional formal restraints of art. As a response to the over-commercialization of art, many artists combine various styles and unusual media in an attempt to expand our perception of art and to explore more intriguing visual language. Artists featured in this exhibit use collage and other mixed-media materials with a strong content, emotion or concept to provoke the viewer to approach visual art in a new way. Chicago-based Megan Stroech uses paint and printed material to create large-scale installations. Port-

land-based artists Kurtiss Lofstrom uses hand-tearing of found materials reducing the image to emotive abstract color; Kelly Saxton creates time-based landscape collages that expand and contract with growth and decline; Justin L’Amie, represented by PDX Gallery in Portland, creates work in collaboration with friends with a casual method of construction; Valerie Whittlesey, an abstract painter who works in the garden, combines texture, color and scientific elements to create metaphors that unite and separate people; local filmmaker, Sid DeLuca presents found vintage material with strong content.

people. His images are beautiful, artful and honor those who keep the city running.

ALSO FEATURING ORIGINAL ART

Fort George Lovell Showroom 1483 Duane St. Folk musician and visual artist Michael Hurley will display new pieces of art. In his new work, Hurley stays true to his cartoonish charm, staying as seriously playful as his music. Come out early to meet the artist and have the first crack at purchasing some of his new pieces. The show will run from 5 to 9 p.m., with an after party at the Fort George’s new second level Public House and Pizzaria next door. The after party will include a performance by Y La Bamba’s lead songstress Luz Mendoza. Luz and the band collaborated with Fort George on the Spring Seasonal, Tender Loving Empire with a rainy-day video performance of their song “Oh February.” Check it out at fortgeorgebrewery.com/tenderlovingempire or see it in person after the Michael Hurley Art Show.

Obtainium Studio 175 14th St. in the Pilot Station Building Astoria-centric art featured during art walk right off the Astoria Riverwalk. Forsythea 260 10th St. September is a month of change. Forsythea welcomes the woodblock prints of Astoria artist Kirsten Horning. Horning has perfected her skills as a printmaker over many years. Garden-inspired photography by Rebecca Eden, who hails from the East Coast, will also be on display. Eden is a graduate of the Fashion Institute of Technology in New York City. Her work will keep fresh cut flowers on your walls for the cooler, darker months ahead. City of Astoria 1095 Duane St. Noted Astoria photographer Michael Mathers spent the last several months capturing portrait images of men and women employed by the City of Astoria at their daily work. His photos, more than 60 in total, will be displayed on the second and third floors of City Hall. Mathers was inspired by seeing all the activity going on in town. After years as an architectural photographer, he returns to his real passion, photographing

Finding shelter

for our

four-legged citizens

Volunteer Jyanai Morse, of Cannon Beach, receives a little love from Boo at the Clatsop County Animal Shelter. Photo by Alex Pajunas

The South Pacific County Humane Society and Clatsop County Animal Shelter are both full of dedicated volunteers and dogs looking for a home Story by AMY BUGBEE aving the companionship of a dog (or any other furry, feathered or even slimy creature) is one of the most rewarding experiences we humans can have. The relationship of man and beast is as old as time. We call them “pets,â€? but they have the potential to be so much more. As longtime companions and members of the family, they offer a richness to our lives. On the other side of the coin, they are a responsibility. Much like children or elderly parents, they need care and time, and it isn’t always easy. According to the American Animal Hospital Association (AAHA), each year six to eight million animals are brought to shelters, and about half that number end up euthanized. 7KH &ROXPELD 3DFLÂżF UHJLRQ LV OXFN\ WKRXJK DV LW LV KRPH to two excellent animal shelters that offer caring “low killâ€? and even “no killâ€? policies for our needy four-legged population. 7KH 6RXWK 3DFLÂżF +XPDQH 6RFLHW\ ZKLFK EHJDQ DV D ORRVH network of animal lovers determined to catch and neuter feral cats on the Long Beach Peninsula, turned into a streamlined QRQSURÂżW RUJDQL]DWLRQ DQG D VWDWH RI WKH DUW IDFLOLW\ WKDW ZDV built just off the main drag in Long Beach, Wash., in 1997.

Clatsop County has its own animal control and shelter. The facility sits on a large piece of land behind Costco in Warrenton. Once the lone building on 19th Street, it now shares the block with a variety of county services. “When I started here 10 years ago, there was only us and the Youth Authority. Then a year or two ago they started this whole complex back here with the houses, the food bank, the senior and disabled services,â€? explains Stephen Hildreth, who heads the facility and animal control. “The building offers a large lobby, veterinary and grooming rooms, separate facilities for dogs and cats, outdoor play areas, and indoor/outdoor kennels to give the dogs some freedom.â€?

Myrtle was found in the middle of a road in Knappa. When she came into the animal shelter, she had matted fur, skin infections and hard, dry eyes, since she didn’t produce tears. “We went a number of months having to put drops in her eyes two to three times a day; her eyes were constantly getting infected,â€? Hildreth says. “Then she got to the point if we tried to put drops in her eyes she would bite, so the vet said to just remove them, and now she is much happier. That was eight or nine months ago.â€? The story isn’t one most people would expect to hear at an animal control facility. The obvious question must be asked: Why not euthanize her? “Why? No reason to.

Hildreth explains. “But we don’t euthanize for space or for time.â€?

‘Our goal is to find the best permanent home for these dogs.’

The humane society’s website states, “We do not put down an animal unless it is terminally ill and suffering, or it poses a risk to itself, other animals or humans.â€? Neither facility euthanizes so-called “bully breedsâ€? – so consequently, both have regular quantities of pit bulls and pit bull mixes. “We have a lot of great pit bulls,â€? Hildreth says. “But the issue with pit bulls is insurance companies. When people want to adopt, we also have to make sure they understand they need to check with their insurance company to make sure they are allowed in the home, even if they own their home.â€? At the same time, euthanasia is part of life in the world of homeless animals.

I’m not going to endanger anybody’s life: If I know an animal is dangerous, I’m not putting it out there. “Then there’s other times when animals are so sick, and they are old, they actually no longer have any quality of life. We’ve had a few dogs that are very old, and no one wants to adopt them. They stay here, and they have a good life while they’re here. Then their quality of life gets to a point where they fall down and they can’t get up, they can’t potty anymore

on their own, or that type of thing. When they’ve lost their quality of life, then yeah, we put them down,â€? he says. “It’s actually kinder for them to go down than to be in pain we can’t treat. Sometimes we will get animals with cancer, late term cancer, and there is no treating them. We’re not going to put them through chemo because that is so hard on them anyway. The kindest thing is to let them go.â€?

The animal shelter gives donated pet food to the Clatsop County Food Bank, which gets used by those in need. “The hospital brings us all of their old sheets, towels and blankets, and we use what we can and then donate the rest to the Wildlife (Center of the North Coast), or the men’s mission and the Women’s Resource Center.

So much dedication for an unpaid job.

LightBox Photographic Gallery opens ‘Photo+Craft 2’

Dave McGraw and Mandy Fer to play

ASTORIA — LightBox Photographic Gallery will host an artists’ reception from 6 to 9 p.m. Saturday, Sept.14 with the opening of the group exhibit “Photo+Craft 2,”which is curated by Blue Mitchell, editor of Diffusion Magazine. The artists will be in attendance at the reception. The exhibit runs from Sept. 14 through Oct. 8. Contributing photographers are a talented group of photographic artists from around the country. This exhibit is a collection of works that have a strong conceptual voice balanced with a high level of craftsmanship. Photographers working in all mediums of photography – from mixed media, alternative process, silver gelatin, to innovative digital methods – exhibit a full-bodied show with a wide range that strongly represents the unconventional methods currently available to photographers. “In regards to craftsman-

ship, I’m interested in the full process of the work, from concept to capture, from production to presentation,” juror Mitchell said. “Like our inaugural Photo-Craft show, I hope to see work that challenges the viewer to think about photography as a tool to deliver an emotion, a statement, or a passion and not just another ‘picture.’” Visit http://lightbox-photographic.com/shows for complete artist information and images. Also showing this month are new MobileMagic prints for the monthly cell phone photography exhibit. Supporting and Associate Memberships are available for those who would like to help LightBox in its mission of showcasing the creative photographic arts on the North Coast. LightBox is located at 1045 Marine Drive. Contact the gallery at 503-468-0238 or info@lightbox-photographic. com

“Waiting.”

LONG BEACH, Wash. — Dave McGraw and Mandy Fer are natural explorers. McGraw spent a decade as a wildlife biologist. Fer (pronounced “fair”) logged some time in Spain, where she studied music and local culture. Together, the two songwriters have built a music career on those travels, funneling everything into a mix of rich, detailed folk music and rootsy Americana. McGraw has a consoling, velvety baritone, and Fer’s soaring and subtly powerful vocal approach puts a spit-shine polish on songs. The duo will play at the Adrift Hotel at 9 p.m. Saturday, Sept. 14 and at 8 p.m. Sunday,

‘Deadliest Catch’ celebrities at festival

JOHN BUEHLER

Born and raised: I was born, raised, educated and taught music (for 40 years) in high schools and college in Kansas. Where do you live now (city)? I live with my wife, Susan, in Cannon Beach. What instruments do you play and how long have you played? I am, primarily, a conductor/ teacher, but I am trained as a singer and used to play trombone in college. I’m learning guitar, now. Do you play with any local groups? I am the artistic director and conductor of the Cannon Beach Chorus. What made you get involved with music? My grandmother was a very able musician, and I had great

teachers who encouraged me in studying music – and most of all, I was encouraged by my parents. What does being director of the Cannon Beach Chorus involve? I think it takes a significant amount of study and formal schooling to be the conductor of the Cannon Beach Chorus (or any music group), and it also takes a very deep love of making great choral music together with other people. The short answer is that I select all the music and lead the weekly two-hour rehearsals. I am also deeply involved in raising musicianship skills and vocal development of the members. What song makes you crank up the volume? I like most types of music, but I turn up the volume of the jazz/rock/fusion tracks on my

iPod when I’m on the treadmill. How do you occupy your time when you aren’t playing or directing music? I spend a great deal of time preparing for my work with the CBC, and I also work at Cannon Beach Vacation Rentals (in guest relations). Our children and grandchildren and their activities and interests are also big parts of our lives.
