WARRENTON — Classic cars, hot rods, antiques, race cars, even motorcycles and farm trucks – if you’re a fan of anything with wheels and a motor, Camp Rilea is the place to be Saturday, April 28, when the Lower Columbia Classics Car Club hosts its annual 50’s Cruise Reunion from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Cost for spectators is $2 for adults, free for children and military personnel. In addition to more than 200 cars on display, the show will feature three historic Mack fire engines that have served Clatsop County in the past. Seaside Fire and Rescue is bringing its fully restored 1935 Mack fire truck; Lewis and Clark Fire Department will have its fully restored prizewinning 1937 Mack fire truck and the Clatsop County Historical Society is bringing its fully original 1946 Mack fire truck formerly of the Astoria Fire Department. This will be the first time that all three historic firefighting vehicles will be assembled together for the public to see, from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. Another “don’t-miss” attraction will be the Oscar Mayer Wienermobile with its signature frank-and-bun design. Throughout the decades, Wienermobiles have utilized Dodge, Jeep, Chevrolet and Mini Cooper chassis and the latest models feature state-of-the-art video equipment, a big-screen TV and storage space for 11,000 Wiener Whistles. According to club member John Santee, the 50’s Cruise event originated in the mid-1980s as a joint project of the Lower Columbia Clas-

sics Car Club and the Beach Barons Car Club based in Ocean Park, Wash. Although each club now runs its own event (Beach Barons host the annual Rod Run to the End of the World in September), all the members contribute time and materials to one another, bringing the car community closer. An estimated 1,500 to 2,000 visitors will be able to browse the show vehicles in the open-air field at Camp Rilea, 33168 Patriot Way, which will also have a presentation of military vehicles on display. The event will also feature vendors, food, car-related games, a DJ playing 1950s and ’60s music all day and a trophy presentation. Anyone is welcome to enter a vehicle at the event. For registration information, call Santee at (503) 470-0381. The Oscar Mayer Wienermobile will be on hand at the Lower Columbia Classics Car Club's annual 50’s Cruise Reunion April 28 at Camp Rilea.

Sand pattern at Beard's Cove. Photographed with 4x5 black and white film, using a Toyo camera. DWIGHT CASWELL PHOTO

Coastal Life In search of the perfect photograph BY DAVID CAMPICHE

he sea was cresting at 12 feet, a leftover feast of a storm from the night before. My friend Dwight Caswell called. He wanted to hunt down a photo opportunity, what the Ninja Turtle Raphael called a Kodak moment. My morning schedule was light, and I was game. I thought of Raphael, that namesake for the turtle. Raphael Sanzio da Urbino was a remarkable 15th-century Italian painter during the Renaissance, a painter drawn to light, color and form long before the advent of the camera. He was one of the first painters to master perspective, a feat later simplified by the camera. Raphael added personal expression. That, of course, is the challenge of any artist, the challenge that Caswell faces every time he lugs his equipment onto the beaches or shoreline of our beloved homeland. Dwight had his camera, as well as a bag of photographic tricks. We didn’t have a lot of time, or, more precisely, a lot of time to corner the perfect morning light. Professional photographers insist that light at dawn or dusk is the best – and at times, the only – time for perfect outdoor images. Dwight carries a backpack filled with modern camera equipment, but there isn’t much he hasn’t tried. Whatever he chooses to use, he applies with skill, dexterity and patience. Often, the patience means not shooting

But they did end of the park, and began the most pleasant of pose well, smiling all the while, dashing back hikes on a paved path (wheelchair accessible) and forth into the ocean as the tide ebbed and that would lead us to the fishing rocks that high- flooded onto the sandy 28-mile beach.

Surging combers broke into that hollow, tic merit and arrive in the winning circle. displaying white foamy heads and all the power Dwight got out his camera and went to that tall, wonderstruck combers can provide, work. Oddly, he turned from the ocean and particularly when the spectator is standing and began to concentrate on the fishing rocks themviewing this saltwater phenomenon from the selves, those now above the flood tide. “I am vista of a safe haven.

I’m always looking for patterns.” Jetty and the advent of more severe undertows Dwight was using a 4x5 Toyo, a state-of-the-

art carbon fiber camera with a 210-millimeter Schneider lens. “There are so many pictures taken of the waves and the Pacific horizon that I only shoot the ocean when the conditions are perfect.” Better than two hours after dawn, they weren’t. Dwight spent another hour preparing and then shooting but one image. He steadied the camera with a tripod. “Essential,” he declares, “for the clearest of shots.” When I asked him if such patience was common, he claimed that the most shots he ever took in one day with a large-format camera was 12. “Everything I shoot,“ he added, “is already prepared in my head.” My head was swimming with delight as the combers crashed and parried, as they swept around and over the gunmetal fishing rocks. As the sea spray jetted upward in sky surges that painted the landscape in white swatches, blue sky crept through. Gulls flew over. A solitary eagle. The cacophony was magical, those sounds of breaking waves, sea birds and the tug of tide as it drew back into the ocean, only to charge again. I took shots with my small magical point-and-shoot camera. Dwight looked at them later, and pronounced kindly, “Those have potential.” Perhaps, I thought, but I’ll relinquish images of this day to the professional.

Science on Tap ASTORIA — The Columbia River Maritime Museum’s next free Science on Tap program, “Necropsies,” will focus on what kind of information is found when performing necropsies on stranded mammals. Such information can include species identification and the cause of stranding, which may be identified as disease, parasite infestation or starvation. Deborah Duffield of Portland State University and Keith Chandler of the Seaside Aquarium will not only talk about which marine mammals strand in our area, but also why they are considered sentinels of changing ocean health. Duffield and Chandler are part of the core team of the Northern Oregon/Southern Washington Marine Mammal Stranding Program that responds to live and dead marine mammal strandings from Tillamook County to the tip of Long Beach (Wash.) Peninsula. Science on Tap, in partnership with Fort George Brewery is a

Thirty years of fun

STORY BY CATE GABLE • FILE PHOTOS BY ALEX PAJUNAS

In preparation for the last year’s Astoria-Warrenton Crab, Seafood and Wine Festival, Parkdale resident Don Perry, of Don Perry Metal Art, organizes the display inside his booth at the Clatsop County Fairgrounds. Perry, a former sawmill worker, uses old band saw blades in many of his works.

Spring has sprung and the daffodils are blooming – it must be time for the Astoria-Warrenton Crab, Seafood and Wine Festival.

“T

his is our 30th anniversary and there’s a little something for everyone,” said Alana Kujala, the Astoria-Warrenton Area Chamber of Commerce event coordinator. “We’ll have great entertainment again – we bring in new groups every year.” “Friday, we have a group from Portland called The Slants and the lead singer, Aron Moxley, is from Astoria,” Kujala continued. “The Slants play ’80s Depeche Mode style music and Aron is so excited to be coming back home to perform. He’s still got lots of friends and family here.” “We get hundreds of requests from groups that want to play for us, so we have a committee and we use volunteers to sort through the requests. We always look at hiring a variety of groups and styles, local and regional. So you’ll find a little bit of everything, from Hawaiian to jazz, R&B to rockabilly and blues.” Even the Astoria High School Jazz Band is part of the musical mix, performing Sunday from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m., under the direction of Scott Cuthbert. As Kujala says, “If you don’t like what you’re hearing on stage, just wait for the next group to come up.”

1,400 pounds of crab In this foodie-centric region, the focus of the gathering is still on the fresh local crab, one of the most amazing resources of the North Coast. And Mitch Mitchum, the Astoria Rotary Club community service chairman, is all about the crab dinner the club serves. “We take delivery of the shellfish Friday morning for the event and our target is 1,400 pounds of crab,” said Mitchum. “That equates to about 1,400 crabs – they come to about a pound dressed weight.” Local purveyor Bornstein Seafoods, founded in 1930 and now run by third-generation family member and CEO Colin Bornstein, provides the crab for the festival. “The crab are all from our local waters,” Mitchum continued. “Bornstein acts as our brokers. The crab comes packed in ice and we lay them out and serve them cold.” “The crab dinner is a fundraiser for the Rotary Club – it takes over 50 people to put on the dinner. For us it’s three days of four shifts a day, an all-hands effort. We use the funds to provide about $10,000 in scholarships for local students – they can choose their own school. It’s a very competitive process.” Mitchum continues, “There will also be, just adjacent to our booth, an International Rotary booth serving up whiskey crab soup. So that’s another option – it’s a family recipe including Jim Beam, crab and cream.” The price of the crab is still undetermined because it fluctuates enough that Mitchum says, “We won’t know the exact price until we take delivery of the crab. The season goes from the first of December until the first of June and the crabbers set a price before the season opens. Then about 80 percent of the crabs are brought in in those first two months. Further into the season there are fewer crab available. This year, the supply is down and the demand is higher, so we’ll just have to say the dinners will be priced based on market value.” 12 | April 26, 2012 | coastweekend.com

Food and wine for all Kujala said that between 15,000 and 20,000 people attend the festival, so how can 1,400 crab be enough? “The festival has lots of food vendors and food items and some people who attend just graze,” Mitchum explained. Kujala confirmed, “We have a total of 30 seafood vendors. The Astoria Clowns provide the crab melts – that’s probably the No. 2 most popular item. They get the second largest crowd for their crab bread.” “But you’re not going to find only crab; there’s salmon chowder, oysters, canned seafood, fresh clams and shrimp. Plus, this year we have over 37 wine vendors and over 147 different varietals – it’s the biggest group of wineries we’ve ever had represented at the festival. We’ll have Oregon wineries spread throughout the fairgrounds – winemakers from Hood River, Southern Oregon, the Willamette Valley, the entire state. It’s very competitive for the wineries to get into the festival.” “You’ll be able to walk around and taste. The wineries generally sell a tasting for $1 (that’s about two ounces) and glasses for $5 that includes a tasting. Every winery does it a little differently.” Don’t miss Illahe Vineyards, where owner Lowell Ford, originally from Warrenton, presides. (Lowell’s father, Dick Ford, was the fire chief, building inspector and also a very active part of the community.) There is also a wine competition: a blind tasting conducted by professional judges. This year’s Best of Show white is J. Scott Cellars, 2010 Viognier; and the Best of Show red, Flying Dutchman Winery 2007 Cabernet Franc. A new feature of the festival is the Warrenton Sunrise Rotary’s “wine check” service. If you decide to buy a case of wine, what do you do with it while you walk around? Sunrise Rotary will check it for you until you leave for the day – in fact, they keep making the rounds to all the winery booths to pick up the wine. “It’s a great complimentary service,” said Kujala, “but they will accept tips.” Family-friendly Sunday According to Kujala, the festival is for adults. “It’s an event for Mom and Dad to get out and sample wine and seafood. But, on the other hand, children are welcomed. We didn’t want to make this an 18-or-older event like some other festivals we have gone to. We think that changes the mood and tone of the festival.” However, Kujala has some advice for parents who want to bring a child. “Friday and Saturday there will be lots of people,” she continued, “so if you want to bring a child, or walk around with a stroller, Sunday is your best bet; the crowd is a lot smaller.” The good news is that the price of admission Sunday is only $5 for adults (half price). And though there are no games or children-focused events, there are plenty of arts and crafts booths to wander though, all featuring local or handmade wares. So get out and see what the North Coast has to offer and take advantage of the year-long planning effort that goes into putting the festival together. “It gets pretty intense right up to the festival,” said Kujala, “and then it all starts again the day after.”

DRINKS: Soft drinks (free refills), coffee, hot choc, beers including micro and domestics on tap, wide selection of bottles, cheap cans of P.B.R. Ask about wines; they aren’t on the menu.

efore the place was (somewhat) renovated into a restaurant, Herb’s was a Seaside gas station and convenience store. I’d driven by multiple times over the past few years wondering exactly what waited inside, and I must say I wasn’t prepared for what I found. Much of the look and feel of the place – the cashier counter, the wall of glass cooler doors, the fluorescent lighting, the lottery games – remains that of a gutted quick stop. The partially tinted windows say “closed” even as the neon sign says “open.” There’s one billiard and one shuffleboard table. A pinball machine and a nearly empty claw crane round out the “rec room” feel of the west wing of the space, while high partition-divided tables occur in a cluster near the counter. The makeshift open kitchen is in the northeast corner of the room a bit behind the counter. I’ve encountered restaurants built in strange spaces, but we may have a winner. Many of the cooler doors are ghost towns no longer populated with a stock of beverages. Those few defiant holdouts – a single can of local microbrew, two handle jugs of Mike’s Hard Lemonade, five cans of Coke – seemed lonely and out of place next to the tap handles and across the room from the fountain drinks. But that was the view from my table; I didn’t take the grand tour. As I’ve written in the past, strange vibes from weird atmospheres can be partially nullified by good food, and for the most part, that is what I found at Herb’s. While there were some clear winners on the roster, the menu is as jumbled and mishmashed as the restaurant itself. Not that there’s anything wrong with that. I enjoy a menu that flaunts convention. Take, for instance, the appetizer menu. You have the regular options: nachos, fried cheese sticks, wings, onion rings; but then there’s the vegetable basket ($4.95) with assorted fresh vegetables (carrots, celery, broccoli,

14 | April 26, 2012 | coastweekend.com

cucumber) and dressings for dipping. Does that seem out of place on a fried app menu? Yes. But I think it’s great that it’s there! Also, for all of those fried items, Herb’s doesn’t offer French fries ... at all. The burgers and sandwiches come

taining a soft exterior, the medium-rare beef bolstered by shredded lettuce, sliced tomato and spicy white onion, and of course the griddled mushrooms and melted cheese. The chipotle burger ($7.50) is stacked with black olives, sliced

with chips and salsa. This was a bit disappointing. Homemade chips, tri-colored chips, good kettle chips, something signature would have been appreciated. What we got were plain tortilla strips you’d get at the store, and a basic factory salsa. I get tired of fries with everything, but a little more work or a better product would go a long way since this is a standard side. The sandwiches alone were really good. The 1/3-lb. burgers are indeed handmade, as the menu claims, and can be cooked to temperature. I enjoyed a mushroom Swiss burger ($7.25), the bun griddled to a crunchy interior while main-

pickled jalapenos and pepper jack. Messy but tasty. The Herb’s reuben ($8.25) is griddled to a crunch, which I appreciate as it stands up to the standard filling of corned beef, kraut, Swiss and Thousand Island dressing, which are harmoniously proportioned. Deli sandwiches – the usual turkey, ham or roast beef with choice of cheese and choice of bread – are nothing special here, but satisfactory in an average way (though I did expect a pickle spear!) I enjoyed the Little Herb Sub ($8.25), a roll with two cheeses, salami, bologna and choice of meat, particularly because of the inclusion of bologna, which I

I’ve encountered restaurants built in strange spaces, but we may have a winner.

never see on menus – but found portions to be rather chintzy for the size of the roll. A recent soup du jour of broccoli cheddar bacon ($3.50 cup) was incredibly thick and starchy – so much so that it was mounded above the rim of the cup. The thick, yellowish, almost custardy base was easy to pin down, while the broccoli, usually in small mushy pieces, was actually in rather large florets, and a bit al dente. This leads me to conclude that a standard condensed canned cheddar cheese soup was doctored up with fresh bacon and broccoli, and not properly diluted with milk or stock. Some points given for semi-homemade. An appetizer order of jalapeno bottle caps ($5.25) were instead jalapeno poppers, and an order of hot wings (on special for $4.95) were not accompanied by the promised veggies and dips and sauces, but rather came a la carte, with the “hot” trapped in the seasoned breading. Though one guest wanted her ranch, I found these to be less messy than sauced wings, and maintain my opposition to the unnecessary inclusion of salad dressing. However, when it comes to accoutrements, honor thy menu. The last thing we tried was truly the best. Herb’s broasted chicken and jojos are up there with any in the area, and that’s already a short list. Some of the biggest examples of chicken parts I’ve ever seen were among our four-piece basket ($8.25), and perfectly cooked at that. The pieces are dusted with a seasoned flour rather than crumbs, light batter or other coatings I’ve encountered. The large breast remained juicy, while the wing wasn’t overdone. Leg and thigh were just perfect. And though I’ve never been much of a jojo fan, the ones served up at Herb’s are superior, as they’re done fresh to order, and haven’t steamed to a soggy exterior or shriveled under a heat lamp. If you can get past the ambiance, there’s decent food to be had at Herb’s.

Hoffman Center

‘GuitArt’ offers auditory and visual pleasure MANZANITA — The Hoffman Center will host musicians Jason Okamoto and Dmitri Swain Friday, April 27, with new works of art on display from Swain and John Freethy. Okamoto plays classical guitar with a Latin American flavor. His musical projects are a variety of solo guitar performances, gigging with gypsy jazz bands and teaching guitar lessons. Over the past few years, he’s concen-

trated mostly on solo guitar, building up a diverse repertoire of Spanish, Brazilian bossa nova and other Latin American guitar styles. Okamoto has also been involved recently with some dance projects such as Body Vox’s “Smoke Soup” production, and performed at the Portland Art Museum. Okamoto, who is self-taught musically, is still his own teacher, and jokes that “Somehow I haven’t fired

myself yet.” Swain is a North Coast artist. With a degree in drawing, painting and printmaking from Portland State University, he specializes in mixed media work, predominantly on paper and wood panels. Swain explained: “The core of my art is surreal and atmospheric. I am primarily inspired by dreams, nature and weather patterns at the moment. I create works with surreal and ex-

pressive qualities. Though I am seeing natural things in the world, the bulk of my work is shaped by my own perceptions. I am bringing to the surface my own vision. In this way I make up a unique narrative. The viewer can look into these constructed places or windows, see the characters and the world, then they start to ask questions. The end result is the experience.” Swain’s music has a “unique jazzy feel and sound, accompanied by his alluring vocals,” said Freethy. Freethy works in many art mediums, including photography, printmaking, painting, paper/book arts and mixed media. When asked about the in-

terplay between his art and nature, he answered “I have always felt a deep connection with nature. There’s nothing more beautiful than when you stand outside in a spot and all that you can see is still unchanged by the human hand. These are the kinds of places that I am drawn to, and therefore what I am inspired to

create and portray in my artwork.” The art opening begins at 5:30 p.m., with the concert starting at 7 p.m. Admission is $8 for the evening. The Hoffman Center is located at 594 Laneda Ave., across from the public library. For more information, visit hoffmanblog.org

Organic farmer gets you growing at the library SEASIDE — The Seaside Public Library will host organic farmer Teresa Retzlaff at 1 p.m. Saturday, April 28, as she speaks about growing edibles on the North Coast. The event will take place in the Community Room and refreshments will be served. Retzlaff is an organic farmer, nursery grower and gardener who has been farming on the North Coast since 2003. In 2009 she and her partner, Packy Coleman, purchased 18 acres of land in Olney, and 46 North Farm was born. They share their land with a herd of Roosevelt elk, as well as deer, songbirds, frogs and insects, and are committed to farming in balance with the wild world around them. On the new acreage, Retzlaff will be growing vegetables, fruit, herbs and flowers, and will sell edible plant starts to coastal gardening enthusiasts. If you are stumped about growing vegetables in the area’s short and cantankerous growing season, Retzlaff will share her expertise on the subject. Bring your vegetable growing questions and be prepared to get some expert advice. Seaside Public Library is located at 1131 Broadway, across from the Sunset Empire Park and Recreation District Youth Center and swimming pool. For more information, call (503) 738-6742 or visit www.seasidelibrary.org or www.facebook.com/seasidepubliclibrary
