ELSIE — The Camp 18 Loggers Memorial Dedication and Logging Exhibition will be held Saturday, May 12, at the Camp 18 Logging Museum. The event is free of charge and fun for the whole family. Founded by Maurie Clark and Gordon Smith in the 1970s, the Camp 18 Logging Museum is a popular spot to stop on the way to the coast and see the spar tree and big logging equipment from years gone by. The museum has grown over the years, and through generous donations of time and money, the Camp 18 Logging Museum Loggers Memorial was completed in 2009. The building houses a bronze statue of a timber faller and contains logging memorabilia from many local families as well as more than 300 plaques commemorating loggers who have died. The 2012 Loggers Memorial dedication begins at 10 a.m., with about 20 new plaques to be dedicated. Many local loggers will compete in the third annual Logging Exhibition, as well as high school teams from Knappa, Scio, Sweet Home, Vernonia and Philomath. The high school teams work hard to help keep the logging industry alive. The forestry teams compete in logging events and study all aspects of forestry, including biomass, timber harvesting, silviculture and forestry engineering. These programs help

prepare students for careers in the industry and serve as college preparation for those going on to study forestry at the university level. A highlight of last year’s event came during the competition between the top local rigging crew and the best of the high school teams. “The students did a great job,” said event coordinator Mark Standley, “and would have won if their teacher hadn’t dropped the pin out of the block during the climbing portion of the relay. The crowd loved it and had a great time watching all the competitions.” Team registration starts at 9 a.m. and the exhibition begins at 11 a.m. Events include treeclimbing, choker-setting, splicing, double-bucking and the hook tender relay race. There will be a tree-falling competition and a log loading competition. Come test your skills or just watch the loggers in action and take a tour of all the great old-time logging museum equipment. There will be food booths, hats, license plate frames, T-shirts and sweatshirts for sale. Volunteers are needed. For more information or to volunteer, contact Standley at (503) 434-0148, logsafeinc@yahoo.com, or Darlene Wilcoxen at (503) 728-2050, darlene.wilcoxen@yahoo.com. Camp 18 is located at 42362 U.S. Highway 26 (milepost 18) east of Seaside.

Coastal Life ‘Gluten-free:’ Diet fad or medical necessity? BY LAURA SNYDER

C

hances are, everyone reading this article knows someone who eats a gluten-free diet. Contrary to the myth that this way of life is another diet fad on an ever-growing list, the gluten-free diet is an extremely effective nonpharmaceutical, noninvasive intervention that positively impacts and improves a variety of medical conditions. These issues range from fatigue, headaches and digestive problems to auto-immune disorders, malnutrition and autism, to name just a few. Whether diagnosed with Celiac disease, or the now medically recognized gluten intolerance, it’s a big deal for one in 133 people, according to the Celiac Disease Foundation. Gluten is the protein found in wheat, barley and rye. Wheat is the culprit that makes it so daunting to consider the diet. In its myriad processed forms, wheat is found in many unlikely foods, from canned soup to bottled sauces and salad dressings. Common yet mysterious ingredients such as modified food starch, maltodextrin and others may contain gluten. By necessity, living gluten-free must be a more than a diet. It must be a lifestyle. As much research as has been devoted to Celiac and gluten intolerance, conclusive answers to the whys remain a mystery. There are genetic connections, and connections to auto-immune disorders such as rheumatoid arthritis, lupus and others. Has a lowered tolerance for such a high number of people evolved out of overexposure to gluten in our food supply? “The Worst Hard Time,” Timothy Egan’s fabulous book about the Dust Bowl, touches on the explosive rise of wheat farming, as settlers on the

Great Plains struggled with difficult weather to find crops that would thrive on the exposed, unforgiving ground. The resulting snowball effects of surplus wheat, low prices and new food processing technology have contributed to the prevalence of wheat or processed wheat products in many more foods than one might expect. Some allergists theorize that intolerance is created by a tipping point when one’s “cup is full.” In other people about gluten and I can say it just gets easier words, people can tolerate allergens such as and easier.

to having several gluten-intolerant family members and to her own eventual discovery that she requires a gluten-free diet as well. “Red (executive chef Lynn “Red” Pelletier) and I started working on ways to alter our menu items without losing quality. We see a lot of people who are so excited to sit down to a dinner and have no concerns or worries, or feel second-best at the table.” The cuisines of other cultures often offer choices that are predominantly gluten-free. Ethiopians use a grain called teff to make injira, delicious flat bread used to scoop up rich, flavorful stews devoid of wheat. Vietnamese cuisine makes use of rice noodles and is also largely gluten-free. While the North Coast has yet to boast an Ethiopian or Vietnamese restaurant, this region’s entrepreneurs can brag about offering Indian (Himani), Thai (Blue Ocean Thai) and several Mexican restaurants. A majority of menu items at all of these are or can be gluten-free. Gluten-free life in a small town need not be one of deprivation. People who require the diet actually find new habits, new cuisines and by all accounts renewed health, well-being and happiness. Here on the North Coast, we can thank our entrepreneurs. As Ann Kischner said, “It’s just a way a lot of people eat now, so why not embrace it?”

Redmen Hall Paintings of Martha Boentgen to be shown SKAMOKAWA, Wash. — The Friends of Skamokawa and the family of Martha Boentgen will celebrate her work with an exhibit opening the Saturday of Mothers Day weekend, May 12, with many of her students attending. See the paintings in the town she loved and the river views she treasured; enjoy some refreshments; and ring the newly reinstalled school bell she heard from her studio just below Redmen Hall. Boentgen has long been recognized as a major Pacific Northwest painter who displayed her work at major galleries in England, France and Italy and extensively in North America. Her family has kept her work together and asked the Friends of Skamokawa to display this collection at Redmen Hall, in the town where she spent so many of her final years. The collection consists primarily of paintings she did of the lower Columbian River Estuary, and prints and postcards of these paintings which will be available for purchase. Boentgen was born in 1920 in Astoria as a second-generation

Astorian and grew up on the waterfront of Knappa. Her father was a commercial fisherman and one of her first paintings was of her father mending nets on his dock, done when she was 13 years old. She went to grade school (in a boat) and high school in Knappa, then to the University of Oregon for a B.A. and Mills College for an M.F.A., and the Chicago Art Institute for further study. Her paintings are primarily land- and riverscapes, with most of the views from the Lower Columbia

River. She said that the river has always been important to her; she went out with her father as a child to help him fish and she spent a lot of time on the net rack making repairs. “I learned to do it all. The collection is a debt I had to pay to the river. I don’t regret for one minute that I had to do a man’s work as a net puller.” She focused on the colors the mixture of rain and sun and stormy weather can produce. “I wanted the whole spectrum, the whole experience of day and night, pleasant weather

and what people describe as bad weather ... the space is just so beautiful. There is no way to express it except to take a paintbrush and go and paint it.” (from an interview in the Cowlitz County Advocate, February 1993 by Loretta Long). Redmen Hall is located at 1394 State Route 4 and is open from noon to 4 p.m. Thursdays through Sundays. The exhibit will run through June 17. The Hall can be contacted during open hours at (360) 795-3007.

House on Skyline Drive in Astoria, built by Ed Overbay.

Builder and craftsman Ed Overbay works in his shop in Warrenton.

A happy man Ed Overbay happens to do what he loves

“I

’m a very odd duck,” says Ed Overbay. “I don’t fit into any of the standard categories.” Those categories would be fine woodworking and furniture, custom architectural millwork, design and custom woodworking. Overbay doesn’t fit into any one of these categories because he is one of the few remaining craftsmen who fit into all of them. While Overbay does both new home construction and residential and commercial remodels, he is more than a builder. An artisan and craftsman, his main business is the smaller projects that add elegance and character to a home, such as entryways, mantels, and one of his real special talents, staircases. All of this is put together in a large, and surprisingly neat, workshop in Warrenton. What Overbay does not do is specialize. Most modern woodworking shops focus on one thing – cabinets, for example, or just drawers for cabinets. “The processes are rote,” says Overbay, “and the jigs are set up for their particular niche.” Overbay would, it is apparent, be bored to death with such an arrangement. “I have an atypical shop,” he says. “I’m old school. We’re really versatile.” Ed Overbay came to what he does at an early age. “When I was young I had a hunger for, an

interest in architecture,” but in 1974, at the age of 20, he started a small woodworking shop, making furniture. Originally, he didn’t think of it as

of the process. One is always learning the craft,” Overbay says, and quotes Chaucer, “The life so short, the crafts so long to learn.”

What followed was more self-schooling in architecture and design, and he began building homes as well as furniture. “Over the years I picked up some engineering as a part

Overbay is very much involved in historic preservation and restoration, and was instrumental in establishing the program of that name at Clatsop Community College and the Columbia-Pacific Preservation Guild (www.columbiapacificpreservation.org), a group of craftspeople who subscribe to a set of common business practices

Overbay’s main business is the smaller projects that add elegance and character to a home.

and respect the principles of historic preservation in their work. In working on a house, Overbay works with the owner and any architects, builders and designers who may be involved. “Collaboration is a process I really value. A house becomes truly custom only with the owner’s input.” He talks to clients not only about what they feel they need and want, but also about their emotional needs. After all, the motto of Overbay Houseworks is “For the Love of Home.” “Collaboration produces hybrid solutions that would not have been realized any other way,” he says. He appreciates that most houses are not one style, but a blend of influences (”building with a mixed palette”), and he also enjoys combining cultural influences: “It’s always stimulating; it has been over the ages.” Overbay finds inspiration almost anywhere. “I can go to a blacksmith shop,” he says, “or a glass blower, or leather worker – any evolved process – and it’s stimulating. It always adds another dimension to your perspective.” Almost 40 years into his accidental career, Overbay is obviously a contented man, at peace with himself. “I consider myself exceedingly fortunate,” he says. “I was 20 when I fell into what I loved. I can honestly say I’m as happy as a clam at high tide.”

From kiln

BY MARILYN GILBAUGH

to community

One hundred fifty guests will gather May 12 at Astoria’s Masonic Lodge to support and to celebrate the positive efforts shared by everyone involved with the Clatsop County Women’s Resource Center, a group that aids the county’s victims of domestic and sexual violence. ALEX PAJUNAS — Coast Weekend

The Women's Resource Center's Soup Bowl has been combining beautiful hand-thrown soup bowls with delicious food to create a successful fundraiser that has been running for at least 10 years.

oup Bowl 2012 weaves together area potters, food purveyors and music makers. Local business reps, abuse survivors, WRC board members, staff and volunteers will be there too. Mix in a good showing of public support, special guest state Sen. Betsy Johnson, laughter, hugs and maybe a few happy tears, and it adds up to an evening celebration of people who care about people. About 10 years ago (nobody is sure, but at least 10), Clatsop Community College’s renowned ceramicist Richard Rowland got a call from the WRC office. As Executive Director Pat Burness recalls, “Amy Eaton, a go-get-’em WRC staffer, called Rowland and asked him if he and other local potters would be interested in supplying (i.e. donating) hand-thrown soup bowls for an event that we had in mind. We all sat around the office phone, our fingers crossed and listening hard. Amy had heard about a successful fundraising program on the East Coast involving an evening of delectable soup choices, great bread and something sweet to finish. The soup was served up in local potters’ beautiful handcrafted soup bowls. Guests enjoyed the evening and departed with a bowl to call their own.” Rowland is a talented artist and teacher with a quiet reserve and a strong commitment to his community. “Possibly,” he responded. But before he would consider Eaton’s request, he wanted to meet the WRC people who would be involved in what he saw as an ongoing project, face to face, making sure that their dedication to serving others matched his. It was important to him that the effort from both the potters and the WRC group be based on shared community values. Rowland takes what he commits to seriously. “I wanted to be involved only if we could have some kind of collabo-

County WRC Soup Bowl drew 350 guests to the Seaside Convention Center,” said the multitalented, multifaceted Deborah McEuen, WRC’s financial co-coordinator and, according to Board Chairwoman Phyllis Cook, also Burness’ assistant and Phyllis’ can’t-do-without facilitator. “It’s grown into quite a large crowd, so this year it has been divided into two different events. On May 12 at Astoria’s Masonic Lodge it’s limited to 150 people, making it a more intimate community celebration. There’s plenty of parking and easy handicapped accessibility. Over half of the tickets were gone by the end of April. It’s our signature fundraiser for the year,” said McEuen. “The other event is our Soup for the Soul. It’s a community outreach event held in October – a really fun, a very family-oriented event involving our many community partners such as law enforcement and area hospitals, and there are all sorts of activities for children and teens. It’s an evening that is both educational and fun.” Soup’s on! Eat and drink and make merry. It’s nourishing for mind and body. Local establishments providing the delectable soups are the 42nd Street Café, Bridgewater Bistro, Clemente’s Restaurant, Fulio’s Pastaria and Tuscan Steak House, Rio Café, Shoalwater Restaurant and T. Paul’s Supper Club. Breads are locally made by the Blue Scorcher Bakery and Café, and sweet petite cupcakes will complete the offerings from Simply Cakes by Jae! Cook offers a perfect wrap. She says, “The goal for the Women’s Resource Center is to work us out of business – educating the community about domestic violence and sexual assault to the point that the WRC is no longer needed.” But in the meantime, 1,000 bowls are winding their way from a natural state to a fulfilling finish. The process and the positive collaborative force created in between is what it’s all about. Take a careful look at that piece of handmade pottery the next time you hold it. It’s come a long way and if loved, just like us, it has much to share.

A large crowd enjoyed the food and community at the 2011 Soup Bowl, held at the Seaside Civic and Convention Center.

Tasting new beverages, Part 4: Around the world and back

I

t’s been a lot of fun and I’ve tried many strange things, but the final chapter is here, and I’ve saved the best for last. In fact, the first three parts of this series will seem boring and tame compared to some of the reactions to the drinkables we ingested this time around. I was not surprised that fewer people showed up for this tasting, and of those who showed, some were deterred by smell alone. I understand. We are leery of the unfamiliar, and when another one of our senses gives cries of warning, why would we soldier on? But soldier on we did. I once drank a durian smoothie while an entire Vietnamese restaurant staff looked on with a mixture of curiosity and disbelief. Why drink something that had the server gagging even as she held it far from her face while she brought it from the kitchen? Because it was on the menu, and they doubted that I could. Yeo's Grass Jelly Drink comes from Malaysia and contains bits of jelly floating in a black tea.

This final installment, while touching on some exotics that are locally available, focuses mainly on drinks found only in ethnic specialty stores. First we started with Uapckha Kbac, a mostly nonalcoholic (less than 1 percent) Russian-style malt beverage in the dark, porter style, commonly known as Kvass. This comes in a plastic 2-liter bottle for $2.99. Kvass smells like bread, as it’s made from fermented bread, but it’s extremely sweet for the beer family. It tastes strongly of molasses and raisins, and has a head like espresso. “Interesting to try, but I could never finish a whole bottle.” “You’d get ‘yeast’ to it eventually.” “Cringeworthy comment.” Yeo’s Grass Jelly Drink – 78 cents. This wasn’t too odd, as many of my tasters had become accustomed to chunks floating in their drinks back during Part 2, where we tackled the aloe drinks. Grass Jelly Drink – which is shaken prior to opening – is a strong black tea, very sweet, with the aforementioned mini cubes of gel 14 | May 10, 2012 | coastweekend.com

floating throughout. Not at all unpleasant, it’s colored with caramel and thickened with corn starch. Uludag – 99 cents. “Fruits flavored fizzy soft drink.” This clear, Turkish soda claims to be the “legendary taste of the ’30s.” In this country, the taste of the ’30s was likely the triumphant return of sweet, sweet booze, but in Turkey it may very well have been Uludag. “Fruits flavored” may be more than just a translation snafu, as it

vinegar flavor plus raspberry and lemon. “It’s like fermented fruit punch.” “Daddy like.” Synergy Raspberry Chia ($3.19) was even more sour smelling, and the chia seeds move in a hypnotic motion when jostling the bottle. The seeds, perfectly separated a la emulsion, do not ever settle to the bottom. “You can’t get a fuller mouthfeel.” “I hope these seeds don’t sprout in my stomach.”

mouth OF THE COLUMBIA

COAST WEEKEND’S LOCAL RESTAURANT REVIEW mouth@coastweekend.com carried an overall generic, multiple-fruit flavor. “This is about as specific as Juicy Fruit gum.” “Yeah, it’s liquid Juicy Fruit, but thankfully less sweet.” Next we dabbled in kombucha, which I’d never had before but several of my tasters had. Kombucha is misleadingly sour smelling. Its appearance is that of a cloudy gold Hefeweizen, and its stink is that of fermented juice, old beer and rotting citrus. But its taste is great! A little grapefruity, a little neutral and very refreshing. But that just covers G.T.’s Gingerade ($3.29). The others were stranger yet. Synergy Trilogy ($3.29) was cloudy red with a sweet and sour, Alidoro Basil Seed with Honey Drink was deemed weird but not bad-tasting.

Alidoro Basil Seed with Honey Drink – $1.49. This greenish-yellow tinted drink has sack-coated basil seeds floating like amoebas. “Tastes like banana and honey.” “The texture’s weird – especially swallowing – but I like the flavor.” T.A.S. Mangosteen Juice Drink – 78 cents. Despite its exotic nature, this drink was universally beloved. “It’s like a natural fruit punch, like a real blend.” “It tastes like flowers smell.” “I love the price, I’m moving to Portland for this.” Chin Chin Lychees Juice Drink – 79 cents. “This smells like a grandma.” “Yes! Like too much perfume.” “Like cheap bath soaps, and really sweet.” FOCO Soursop Juice – 99 cents. This tasted much better than it smelled, which was more sour than the kombuchas. “Oh, I hate to

say it ... animal urine.” “That may be the perfect description. Now we taste.” – “No.” “It’s not that bad. Tart and fruity.” “This would make a great sorbet.” “Good aftertaste.” Danio Pohmilny Kvas – $2.99. Another 2liter bottle of fermented beverage, this time Ukranian. “This is much milder than the Kbac Porter.” “I taste prunes.” “I’m getting chocolate.” “Sour barley here.” “A faint trace of coffee.” Abali Yogurt Soda – $1.99. This looks like milk, smells like sulfur and cabbage. This was the only one I wimped out on, tasting it long after everyone else. “I can’t bring myself to try it.” “It smells like regurgitated baby formula.” “Now I really want to try it!” “It’s not that bad, it’s like feta cheese, but not salty.” “It’s more like carbonated mozzarella juice.” “Sauerkrauty.” I eventually discovered, after much embarrassment, that it wasn’t too bad, but I wouldn’t have it again. Paldo Soo Jeong Gwa Sweet Cinnamon Punch – 89 cents. Very sweet at 130 calories per 8-ounce can. “Smells like apple pie.” “Ooh, the can says dried persimmon and ginger.” “How is there more cinnamon than sugar?” “I’m glad this was the last thing we tried, very desserty.” While I don’t think most people would take a trip to Portland for the sole purpose of picking up some of these beverages, I do think it’s worth it to make time to pick some up when you are there. Some of the prices are just amazing, and while there are a few that will surely rub you the wrong way, you may discover something worth stocking up on.

We are leery of the unfamiliar, and when another one of our senses gives cries of warning, why would we soldier on?

Columbia River Maritime Museum Celebration honors 50 years of maritime history ASTORIA — Rolf Klep, a native of Astoria and longtime collector of maritime artifacts, sought to establish a museum that would preserve the rich maritime heritage of the entire Columbia River region. Fifty years later, the Columbia River Maritime Museum’s national reputation for the quality of its exhibits and the scope of its collections makes it the finest maritime museum on the West Coast and the official maritime museum for the state of Oregon. Join the Columbia River Maritime Museum at 10 a.m. Saturday, May 12, for a 50th anniversary celebration. The celebration will kick off with remarks from special guests state Sen. Betsy Johnson, Rep. Suzanne Bonamici and Port of Portland Executive Director Bill Wyatt. Visitors will enjoy free admission and special activities, including guided tours of the museum and a U.S. Coast Guard Search and Rescue demonstration. The celebration will conclude at 3 p.m. with refreshments. The Columbia River Maritime Museum is located at 1792 Marine Drive.

SEASIDE — North Coast Land Conservancy announces a new summer outreach series, On The Land: Walk and Paddle with NCLC. From May through October, the land trust will offer guided walks and paddle trips several times per month to some of the places that NCLC has helped to conserve on Oregon’s North Coast. NCLC staff and volunteers leading the programs will be joined by naturalists, botanists and writers, providing a breadth of insight into the natural world. Kicking off the inaugural season will be a walk from 10 a.m. to noon Thursday, May 17, at Neacoxie Forest near Gearhart, led by local ecologist Neal Maine. The On The Land programs are a way for community members to get out and see some of the North Coast’s protected places, many of which are not normally open to the public. Many of these lands have been conserved specifically because they include sensitive habitat or cultural sites that could be degraded by regular human access. Restricting access to certain areas helps healthy populations of native plants and animals to thrive. Although NCLC’s mission does not include conserving land for recreational purposes, the organization has often helped state and national parks to acquire land that is then opened to recreation, such as helping Lewis and Clark National Historical Park to acquire the 100acre Yeon Property near Sunset Beach in 2009. Another consideration is that many of the properties NCLC holds in conservation are not safe or appropriate for recreation. NCLC probably owns more impenetrable swamps on Oregon’s North Coast than anyone, organizers said. These guided walks and paddle trips will take participants all over the North Coast – across a lake in Warrenton, through a forest near Klootchy Creek, up the Nehalem River to a secret swamp and many more. Parents, be sure to check out the special Family Outings on offer. Programs take place outdoors on the Oregon Coast, so dress appropriately for the day’s weather and wear sturdy walking shoes. Water, snacks and binoculars are always great things to bring with you. There will not normally be access to public restrooms. Programs are free and open to the public, but group size is limited and preregistration is required. You can see the entire 2012 On The Land schedule and easily register online for programs at www.nclctrust.org. To find out more about this series and other upcoming NCLC programs, contact NCLC at nclc@nclctrust.org, or (503) 717-1458.

Tillamook Bay Register now for Bounty on the Bay GARIBALDI — Anglers from across the Northwest will be gathering in Garibaldi June 1 and 2 to participate in Tillamook Estuaries Partnership’s (TEP) annual Bounty on the Bay. Tides are looking good for pursuit of spring chinook salmon, and there are seats available with professional guides for the Saturday fishing tournament, or anglers can register private boats. There will be a dinner and pro-fishing guide seminar Friday night at the Old Mill, 210 S. Third St., for those who want to get tips for Saturday’s tides with their meal. This event is not just for the fishermen. Those interested in an alternative bay adventure can participate in a guided kayak tour of Tillamook Bay; the “Paddle Picnic” will be led by a local birder and include lunch at Goose Point with guest speaker Gary Albright from the Tillamook County Pioneer Museum. The main event, the bountiful Seafood Feast and Silent Auction, where tournament winners will be announced, will take place Saturday evening. Registration is now open and necessary for all

facets of the event. Those who register before May 15 for any of the on-the-water packages will receive a free Bounty on the Bay T-shirt. Whether you are interested in the guided fishing trips (early reservations recommended), taking out your own boat, the Friday night dinner and pro-guide seminar, the Seafood Feast Saturday night or the Picnic Paddle, there is something for everyone. Garibaldi House Inn and Suites, the official hotel of Bounty on the Bay, is offering discounted rates for Friday and Saturday night stays if you mention Bounty on the Bay. The registration deadline is May 25. Registration forms are available online by going to www.tbnep.org, or to obtain more information regarding the event, contact Sierra Lauder by phone at (503) 322-2222 or by email at Bounty@tbnep.org This annual fundraiser supports TEP’s efforts to implement the Tillamook Bay Comprehensive Conservation and Management Plan (CCMP). For more information about TEP programs and how they benefit local communities, visit www.tbnep.org

LightBox Photographic Gallery Photographers focus on relationship to place ASTORIA — LightBox Photographic Gallery will host an artists’ reception from 6 to 9 p.m. Saturday, May 12, for the opening of the group exhibit “Gravitational Pull.” The exhibit runs from May 12 to June 5. “Gravitational Pull” showcases the work of four photographic artists from around the country: David Bram, editor of Fraction Magazine, Michael Itkoff, editor of Daylight Magazine, Kathleen Robbins, coordinator of the photography program at the University of South Carolina, and Ben Huff, fine art photographer from Juneau, Alaska. Jennifer Schwartz of Jennifer Schwartz Gallery in Atlanta, Ga., curates this exhibit. Photographers create their most powerful and memorable images when they have a deep personal connection to the subject. When a photograph has a palpable energy and emotion, that intensity transfers to the viewer and leaves its mark. Each photographer has chosen to photograph a landscape that has rich personal significance. Although the work represents four diverse geographic areas, the depth of connection between the photographer and the land is poignant across all of the imagery. In “Gravitational Pull,” the photographers not

In “Three Mile Radius,” Bram photographs the world he encounters within a three-mile radius of his couch in Albuquerque, N.M., offering glimpses into the physical nature of the terrain as well as the cultural landscape of his city. Itkoff, in “Between Two Lakes,” photographs the Pennsylvania countryside tied to personal memories around the family cabin that has been

part of his life, and with which he’s has a special relationship. Robbins’ work centers around the southern landscape and experience. “Into the Flatland” explores familial obligation and conflicted relationship with “home,” photographing the family land in the Mississippi delta. Huff’s photographs document “The Last Road North,” a portrait of Alaska’s Dalton Highway, exploring the people and landscape of the stark and difficult most northern road in America. Huff depicts a terrain and people largely on the edge of society. Visit http://lightbox-photographic.com/shows/gravitational_pull for complete artist information and statements.

NASELLE, Wash. — The Appelo Archives Center will host a reception in honor of Carlton Appelo’s 90th birthday from noon to 4 p.m. Saturday, May 12, at the Archives Center at 1056 State Route 4. Throughout his 90 years, Appelo has played an active role in the growth of southwest Washington. Born on a boat near the town of Deep River in 1922, he grew up in the area, working in his parents’ store during the logging era when Deep River was a bustling town. He graduated from Naselle High School, then the University of Washington. He was active in the U.S. Army during World War II, serving in Okinawa. He gained an advanced degree studying in Stockholm, Sweden, then, shortly after returning to the Deep River area, he began working for the Wahkiakum West Telephone Company in 1952. He is still president of the company. Appelo remains an active member of the Congregational Church in Naselle, the Deep River American Legion Post, and the Grays River Grange. Until just last year, he was an elected board member of Port District Two and had been since its beginning. He has loved history all his life and been an active recorder of events as they happened, in photographs and on video. He recorded interviews of many pioneers in the area, and collected newspaper articles, photographs and memorabilia of local families that are all now available to the public in the Archives Center’s collection. Appelo was active in founding Port District 2, then in founding the Columbia Pacific RC&EDD, representing four counties in the southwest Washington area. He has been on countless national telephone boards and been an active leader in supporting rural telephone companies most of his life. He still attends national telecommunications conferences and is

recognized for his knowledge of the history of the telecommunications industry. He has won numerous awards, including the Governor’s Heritage Award, and is recognized as an important historian in Washington state. In 2005, Appelo set up the Archives Center and it continues as a nonprofit with much success, illustrated by the Center’s latest book, “When Logging Was Logging.” His earlier histories of local areas, printed in early Wahkiakum West telephone books, are available for sale at the Center. Appelo’s work in recording this collection of history is the only record left of the early communities of the area. He wrote of Frankfort, Brookfield, Altoona, Pillar Rock, Deep River and Knappton and included various other materials in a pioneer scrapbook. His collection of photographs from the logging era is considered valuable. Old and new friends are welcome at the reception. In lieu of gifts, he asks that donations be made to the Center. They can be sent to 1056 State Route 4, Naselle, WA 98638 or given personally at the reception. For more information, contact Anita Raistakka at (360) 484-3376 or the Center at (360) 484-7103.
