KALA@HIPFiSHmonthly Matt Love presents ‘Sometimes a Great Movie’ ASTORIA – For the past three months, author Matt Love has been making the rounds of bookstores all over Oregon, talking about his new book, “Sometimes a Great Movie: Paul Newman, Ken Kesey and the Filming of the Great Oregon Novel.” Now, Love’s Northwest book tour comes to Astoria, for a screening/signing/storytelling event at KALA, 1017 Marine Drive. Doors open at 6:30 p.m. Saturday, July 28, and the show begins at 7 p.m. Admission is $5, with a nohost beer and wine bar, plus trivia questions, prizes, a question and answer session with the author, perusal of Love’s movie memorabilia, movie trailers, home movies of the filming production and screening of the movie.

The star was Paul Newman. The author was Ken Kesey. The story was “Sometimes a Great Notion” and it has a fanatical following in the Pacific

he lake is called Island Lake. A pristine body of water, it sits at the dead end of Birch Lane, which snakes off Cranberry Road, three miles north of Long Beach on State Route 103. Once it was called Starvation Road. A depression, apparently far more severe than the current recession, put a choke hold on America. Growing cranberries and poaching deer was a deterrent to hunger. Times have changed, but shadows linger. And shadows dropped on the deserted lake like snowfall on stone. This is a lake mostly forgotten. As a kid, I fished for bass here. Never saw a soul. Never once. Today seems little different. So we simply paddled along, slow and easy, not attempting to define the day, but falling into that nondefinable Zen-like pattern of letting what might happen, happen. My friend and pastor, Jim Tweedie, was along, as was our sidekick, Bernie Gerkens. A few months ago, I wrote a tale about a boating experience off Long Island that turned dangerous when wind and tide exploded into 3-foot whitecaps. This

Coastal Life STORY AND PHOTOS BY DAVID CAMPICHE day we designed a safe adventure. The lake is docile. For the entire morning it remained docile. There was but one visible outpost, a home on the west side of the lake, nestled into the forest. Columbia Land Trust has purchased large swaths of this landscape. When a person finds such a stunning getaway so close to civilization, he or she can only marvel. The conservancy will protect its fragile nature indefinitely. What can one say but thanks. At the north end of the lake, a buttress of cedar, Douglas fir and Sitka spruce formed a natural divide between a second lake, a body of water I knew in my youth as Goose Lake. Today it bears the title of Lost Lake, which seems appropriate. Beyond this mile-long lake is another called Mallard. The only sign of life was an eagle perched

high in an evergreen, and the occasional wake of a large-mouth bass. Birdsong jostled the air like confetti. We bushwhacked through the thick forest, but could find only animal trails. The compacted trail was corrupted with salal and cathedral bush. That was fine with the three amigos. It is both rare and exciting to share such a natural setting with no one, at least a human no one. Evidence of other four-legged cousins abounded. Lost Lake was spectacular. The water was dark and black and still. Evergreen and dense brush dropped down to the water’s edge. Osprey nested nearby and seemed as curious as the human visitors in their colorful kayaks. I don’t think they get many guests. I wished I had brought a fishing pole, though I haven’t fished for bass in years.

This thought arose, like the lithe-winged predators that guard the lake, protest if we approach too closely: If I was fishing, I probably wouldn't have paid nearly as much attention to the flora and fauna. To the morning song, to my poet’s feelings. I would not have fallen into that “Be Here Now” moment of introspection. I would not have written this quick poem. Quick-silver lake See faces in the mirror Hear stillness singing Bird song joyful Rustle of wind slaps calm water See the wrinkles, life reflected Paddle dips and rises Spray falls backwards into space We are two with one

Cannon Beach Gallery

Studio announces new program for preschoolers GEARHART – Encore Dance Studio announces “Born to Entertain” coming in the fall, a new morning program designed to help bridge the gap between academics and performing arts for preschool age children. Hours will be 8:30 to 11:30 a.m. Mondays through Thursdays at the Gearhart studio. Select the day or days of the week in which you wish to enroll your little performer. This will be your set schedule for the year. You can add or change the days of the week your dancer attends depending on enrollment and costume availability. Tuition is based on a 10month school year, September through June. There is a fixed monthly tuition depending on

how many days per week your dancer is enrolled. This is a flat rate regardless of absences or studio closures. Class ratio will not exceed eight performers to one instructor and students must be at least 3 years old as of Sept. 1, and toilet trained. “Born to Entertain” is designed as an instructor/dancer program. Parents are welcome to wait in the lobby when class is in session but the studio door must be kept closed during classes, in order to avoid any wandering dancers. Enroll online at www.getyoudancing.com or call 503-7171637 for more information. Encore Dance Studio is located at 3593 U.S. Highway 101 N.

Seaside Mill Ponds Invasive plant removal planned SEASIDE – Ivy, blackberry and broom – oh my! North Coast Land Conservancy’s (NCLC) Saturday Morning Stewardship program will be at the Seaside Mill Ponds from 9 a.m. to noon Saturday, July 28, to make a dent in the invasive plant population around the ponds. The Seaside Mill Ponds were first excavated for a gravel quarry, then converted to holding ponds for timber and later abandoned. NCLC helped the city of Seaside acquire the land, which now serves the community as wildlife habitat for migratory song birds and waterfowl, beavers and otters, and scenic open space for walking and bird watching. Over the years, a large portion of disturbed ground has allowed English ivy, Himalayan

blackberry and Scotch broom to take hold. Saturday Morning Stewardship is a monthly program hosted by North Coast Land Conservancy, which invites community volunteers to join in and help create and enhance wildlife habitat on conserved lands along the North Oregon Coast. Volunteers should bring gloves, water and a snack; tools will be provided. Programs are rain or shine, so dress for the day’s weather and wear sturdy shoes. There will not be access to public restrooms. Contact NCLC Stewardship Director Celeste Coulter at 503-738-9126 or celeste@nclctrust.org for directions to the work site. More information is available at www.nclctrust.org

ulbs, branches and beach air? How can you miss when six private gardens allow, in fact invite, Sunday strollers to come and experience a stunning display of garden artistry? From 10 a.m. until 3 p.m. Sunday, July 29, Clatsop County’s Court Appointed Special Advocates (CASA) presents Gardens by the Sea, the fifth annual garden tour with something for everyone. Six diverse Gearhart gardens offer gardeners, from well-seasoned weeders to the newly planted enthusiasts, opportunities to linger and learn. Garden envy, outright coveting, even attempted copying, are all acceptable behavior and part of garden tour take-home rewards. As a bonus, should you or someone you know be a whiz at botanical names (the ones that almost none of us know), now is the hour. Pull out the Latin, there’s no better time or place to impress. For nongardeners, the gardens provide an enchanting Sunday stroll through beautiful parklike settings, fabulous photo ops, and light refreshments to boot. The actual grunt work, nurturing and success associated with this year’s featured gardens and the CASA program are grounded in similar roots. In a nutshell: somebody cares! The dedication

and devotion of CASA volunteers aim to produce children-in-need with a flourishing and “weedfree” community. “We have around 40 volunteers who have been through our extensive training and are then assigned to the cases of one or more children

Sandsations

Wisdom in the shifting sand on the Long Beach Peninsula

ore than 4,000 years ago, the finest engineers in all of Egypt stared out across the rolling dunes and conjured forth a vision for one of the most impressive structures that would ever grace the earth – the Great Pyramid at Giza, sole surviving Wonder of the Ancient World. This renowned feat of design remains the most enormous building ever constructed and leaves present-day archeologists still puzzling over exactly how it was accomplished. But if you’re just the right breed of specialty sculptor (like the kind that can be found this week at the annual Sandsations festival on Washington’s Long Beach Peninsula), you’ll understand completely when you learn this: Those long-ago architects, at home on the banks of the great River Nile, tested small-scale models of the world’s perfect pyramid by forming them first, so it’s said, out of pressed, wet sand. “You can learn a lot in the sand,” says Bert Adams, master sand Sandcastles are always part of the Sandsations event.

CITY SANDSATIONS Sand sculpting demonstration from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. (photos, walk throughs, talk to the builders) Even pirates got into the action, building a treasure chest at last year's Sandsations event in Long Beach, Wash.

STORY BY LYNETTE RAE McADAMS • PHOTOS BY DAMIAN MULINIX

sculptor and longtime competitor in sand building events the world over. “It’s all about physics and geology.” He explains, “Think of what happens when you press two flat pieces of wet glass together and then try to pull them apart. It’s not easy, is it? You can slide them back and forth and around, but they want to stay stuck. That’s called ‘surface tension’ and it’s what we live by when it comes to carving sand. Without it, we’re in big trouble. Without it,” he laughs, “whole parts of your sculpture can just slip away.” When you look at the magnified image of a single grain of sand, you see that what appears to the eye as a rounded ball of miniature stone is actually a very angular, multifaceted structure which, when mixed with the correct ratio of water and more sand, creates enough surface tension to bind the grains together. Mixed, compacted and properly carved, the strength of even a very large sand sculpture can be quite surprising. And that’s exactly what crowds will be counting on this week when they pack it in for this very popular combination of professional sand sculpting demonstrations and alllevel competition. Now in its 28th year, Sandsations invites spectators and participants of every age and ability to watch the modern masters and learn to channel their own inner-ancient, bringing any sandy imagining

to life. The festival (sponsored by the Long Beach Merchant’s Association and the city of Long Beach, Wash.) kicks off Wednesday, July 25, when four solo sand artists and one master team come together in the heart of the city (Third Street, behind the police station) to build individual sculptures and one rodeo-themed sand scene. For three days, visitors can walk among the emerging sculptures, taking photos freely and chatting with the master artists while they work. On Saturday, July 28, at the Bolstad Avenue beach approach, the alllevel competition begins. Categories this year are Family, Novice, Intermediate and Master, with each team competing for one of three top prizes in their class. Construction begins at 10 a.m. and ends at 3 p.m. and judging (which takes place all day) is based on suitability to sand, creativity, effort, design, intricacy, teamwork and overall appearance. “And,” instructs Jenny Lombardo, festival chairwoman, “everyone has to have fun.” This year’s all-volunteer crew has certainly made that easy. “We’ve tried to work it out so there’s something for everyone,” Lombardo says. “Seniors and folks with disabilities can still enjoy the sculptures here in town without having to make the trek across the beach, and we’ve got free sculpting lessons for the kids on Friday and a designated play area for families down at the contest.”

During Sandsations, visitors can walk among the emerging sculptures, taking photos freely and chatting with the master artists while they work.

The local Kiwanis Club will offer free hot dogs all day Saturday (until they’re gone) and at 12:30 p.m., the furriest parts of the family can join in for the Sand Flea Pet Parade, sponsored by the South Pacific County Humane Society. Contest winners will be announced and prizes awarded Saturday afternoon at 3:30 p.m. All sculptures, including those in town, will be left for viewing throughout the day Sunday, July 29. But not much longer. Because unlike the ancient pyramids of Egypt, not everything that rises from the sand is meant to stand the test of time, and in this case, what weather and cleanup crews don’t take care of, the tides eventually will. Lisa Donze, professional sand sculptor from Olympia, Wash., and a captain for the competitive masters team, Wabi Sabi, appreciates the fact that the finished product of her art isn’t really meant to stick around. “Our team takes its name from an ancient Japanese philosophy that looks for beauty in what is temporary, imperfect and incomplete,” she says. “Sand is forgiving, but only to a point.You can spend a lot of time designing a piece and then you get into it and something goes wrong. It seems so solid, and then it suddenly collapses and everyone’s shocked.” She laughs. “But you have to accept that these things happen – that’s just part of it.” “That’s when you have to look at what’s left and ask what it could still become,” Donze says. “You have to find a solution that will turn it into something better. And you have to understand that it’s never finished but that you should keep working even though, in the end, it’s all going to wash away.” And wash away it will.

Horrible recipes of yesteryear: A taste test project

’ve always been fascinated by the strange and stunted evolution of food and cooking in this country. It seemed to take us generations to get to where other countries had been for centuries. Odd trends came and went as we tried to find our identity, as we cobbled together the foods of other cultures in hopes of making them our own. But post-World War II in the midst of the baby boom, the nuclear family strove for convenience as well as a sense of sophistication in the kitchen as they reveled in their new-found prosperity. This was easily achieved with the advent of affordable home refrigeration and cheap canned and frozen fruits and vegetables, some because of agricultural subsidies. And what did they come up with? Who’s to know? But there are many surviving examples of what was pitched to them by advertisers in the women’s magazines of the ’50s and ’60s. Though I couldn’t find an elder with any minable memories regarding these food atrocities, I find it hard to believe that none of the aproned homemakers depicted in said advertisements clipped one and tried it out for the family some Sunday evening. While I have a nice collection of these archaic recipe ads laminated in a folder for an occasional chuckle, I decided for this article to make a few of these dishes that I found online, as I can post them on our website for all to see. While many of these were intriguing, most of them were just ingredients thrown together haphazardly. Take for instance, Spam ’n’Limas, an ad run by Hormel Foods in various publications in 1946. It’s just “partially buried” Spam slices in canned lima beans, baked and garnished with pimentos (pimentos and pimento-stuffed olives were very popular garnishes in that distant era). I can’t think of a more polarizing dish for a family to contend with. Of course I’m not trusting their slogan: “Cold or hot, Spam hits the spot!” I did make this dish, and it was every bit as pointless and revolting as I’d imagined. Just how am I going to use the rest of this jar of chopped pimentos? I couldn’t resist disgusting myself further in such a simple way. “Seven-up in Milk! The little TRICK that makes a TREAT.” Apparently in the 1950s it was difficult to get kids to drink their milk. What better way to enhance it than add an equal amount of nutritionally useless soda? It wasn’t for me. Just slightly worse than the milk and Pepsi I tried as a youngster inspired by a “Laverne & Shirley” rerun. But these recipes, and others I cooked knowing they wouldn’t see print just didn’t compare to the ones I’ll focus on now: the Jell-O recipes. I know that aspic recipes were enjoyed in high society, and that the laborious process to make gel-

COAST WEEKEND’S LOCAL RESTAURANT REVIEW mouth@coastweekend.com atin at home was something that most weren’t willing to take on. But when powdered gelatin and home refrigeration hit, no one bothered to look into unflavored gelatins that could be seasoned with meat or fish broths. Jell-O decided to bombard the public with horrible recipes that bound savory foods within sweet, fruity Jell-O brand products. I’ve been to potlucks where some granny brings her “famous” (read: infamous) Jell-O salad which suspends canned fruit chunks, minimarshmallows, nuts, shredded carrots and other unwelcome internal garnishes. But I hadn’t seen the likes of Monterey Souffle Salad before. Lemon Jell-O mixed with tuna, mayonnaise, celery, grated onion, olives and of course, pimentos, then chilled in a ring mold and filled with tuna salad. That one was more difficult and nearly too horrible to write about here. I’ll instead cover Lime Cheese Salad and Red Red Salad. I was immediately attracted to the Lime

Cheese Salad after seeing the picture. It was one of those special layered Jell-O dishes where you fill the mold and cool, then add another liquid layer with stuff in it. This recipe was especially disgusting because of the vinegar and onion added to the entire batch of Lime Jell-O, coupled with the intense sweetness of a gelatin not properly diluted in hopes of a stronger hold. Then comes the second layer, the other half of the sour, onion-flavored JellO, this time spiked with cottage cheese and mayonnaise. I’m not kidding. I bought both small and large curd, seeing as I prefer the small but figured large would look nicer. I didn’t want to ruin small curd forever, so I went with the large. Once that was done, it was time to come up with the “seafood salad” to fill the hole left by the ring mold. Now I was thinking tuna salad or salmon salad, but was then informed that seafood salad is usually an imitation crab dish, and a trip to the seafood section of the supermarket proved just that. I made it all of four days working at a local

The Mouth’s version of Red Red Salad.

surimi plant after high school, and will never eat it for as long as I live. I decided to split the difference and buy some crab leg meat, some smoked salmon spread, and some tuna, and make a more edible seafood salad. As the picture shows, my ring didn’t hold up very well; nothing like the advertisement showed. And while the seafood salad was pretty good, the Jell-O itself was as awful as we’d anticipated. Perhaps the palates of the ’50s and ’60s were more adventurous, or at least had different notions of what was good. The Red Red Salad was much simpler, but also much worse. It was basically strawberry JellO mixed with ketchup, salt and chopped green pepper. I hate to waste food, but there was no eating more than one bite of this one. The crunchy green pepper, which I’ve never had in a sweet venue before, always evokes memories of stir-fry, mushrooms, onions and steak sandwiches. These thoughts don’t belong near a doubly sweet artificial strawberry gelatin that’s been salted. With some regret, I dumped the majority into the trash bin after the dogs had a quick perusal and declined it. I know it isn’t likely, but I have a sneaking suspicion that these recipes were elaborate pranks cooked up by the drunken ad men who saw profits no matter how they pitched their products. I can see them biting their lips to suppress outbursts of laughter as a projection of green peas and corn in orange Jell-O appears on the wall of the boardroom. I take solace in this imagination as I don’t want to accept the notion that these horrible recipes were conceived in earnest.

ASOC Playhouse Upward Bound students present ‘Shakespeare’s Women’ ASTORIA – Nine high school students from Astoria, Warrenton and Seaside in the Upward Bound program at Clatsop Community College (CCC) will present a free performance of “Shakespeare’s Women” at 7:30 p.m. Tuesday, July 31, at the Astor Street Opry Company Playhouse, 129 W. Bond St. “Shakespeare’s Women” is a theater piece devised by Libby Appel, former director of the Oregon Shakespeare Festival in Ashland. The play takes the audience on a journey through a dozen Shakespeare plays, highlighting the best scenes and monologues for women. In an hour of laughter, love and heartache, the great women of Shakespeare’s plays stand center stage. Ophelia, Gertrude, Juliet, Beatrice, Viola, Isabella, Helena, Kate, Lady Macbeth, Desdemona and others explore the nature of woman using Shakespeare’s memorable words. “Frailty, thy name is woman”? Hardly! These strong women revel in their “infinite variety” and strength. No prior knowledge of Shakespeare is necessary for enjoyment of this unique theatrical event. Upward Bound at CCC is a TRiO precollege program of the U.S. Department of Education. It provides advising, tutoring, mentoring, cultural enrichment and academic instruction for students in ninth through 12th grades. The program’s Summer Academy is a college-simulation experience to promote success in education beyond high school. The Upward Bound Shakespeare project,

Adam Buchanan plays Demetrius and Romeo (with a short stint as Thisbe), while Heather Flores plays Helena and Queen Gertrude. Aleah Hobbs narrates and also plays Olivia, and JoJo Miller also narrates as well as playing Lady Macbeth and Claudio. Ariel Stallsworth plays Ophelia and Emilia. Alex Still plays Isabella and Desdemona, while Derick Watson plays Macbeth, Benedick and Petruchio. Admission is free and is on a first-come basis. Doors open at 7 p.m. Donations are welcome and will benefit the Astor Street Opry Company building fund. Information is available at 503-338-2370.

There are three online deadlines for applications: Aug. 15; Dec. 17; and April 15, 2013. Applications are accepted only online at www.oregonarts commission.org/support_for_the_ arts/grants/grant_inds.php Artist Fellowships are $3,000 awards that recognize the achievements of Oregon artists and the contributions they make to the cultural health of the state.

Past Artist Fellows include Oregon visual artists as Nan Curtis, Anna Fidler, Mike Bray and Ryan Pierce. The program is open to artists involved in performing and literary arts.
