Roll up, eat up, drink up 36th Newport Seafood & Wine Festival promises carnival atmosphere Patrick Alexander Oregon Coast TODAY

While a regular circus has a big top, cotton candy and clowns climbing out of a Volkswagen, the carnival coming to Newport this month will boast marquee tents, cooked crab and enough wine to bring a smile to anyone’s face. The Newport Seafood & Wine Festival is celebrating its 36th year with a “Cirque Du Vine” theme, offering food, crafts and more than 70 wine vendors with booths decked out in circus style. Each of the vineyards represented will be hoping to win the judges’ coveted “Best in Show” award while also making their wines available for sample by the thousands of visitors that make their way to Newport every year for the event at the South Beach Marina. A fundraiser for the Greater Newport Chamber of Commerce, the festival began in 1977 as a successor of sorts to Newport’s wildly popular Crab Festival, which started in 1938 as a way to get rid of surplus crab and ran until 1951. With a scope broadened to include other delicacies such as oysters, shrimp melts and clam chowder, the Seafood & Wine Festival began as a modest affair at the Newport Armory and has since grown into the central coast’s largest tourism event. And, just like a circus, organizing such a large show takes quite a troupe, whether it’s volunteers working a shift on one of the festival’s four days or the members of the festival committee, who start planning each year’s event the summer before. “There’s not much turnover in the volunteers,” committee member Don Rowley said. “Maybe TODAY photo there should be, because some of us are getting up there in age.” Rowley’s involvement with the festival started when he was assistant fire chief and had to ensure the site complied with fire codes. In 1998, at the age of 64, he retired as fire chief and WHAT: Newport Seafood & started volunteering, taking on responsibility for set up and Wine Festival tear down. WHERE: South Beach Now, aged 79, he’s still at it, ensuring that everything from Marina, 2320 OSU Drive the wine display booth to the clothing sales booth to the Newport garbage cans are in their correct places when the gates open WHEN: 5-9 pm, Thursday, on Thursday night — also known as “locals’ night.” Feb. 21; Noon-9 pm, Friday, Lorna Davis, executive director of the Greater Newport Feb. 22; 10 am-6 pm, Chamber of Commerce, said the Thursday opening began Saturday, Feb. 23; and 10 last year to mark the festival’s 35th anniversary. am-4 pm, Sunday, Feb. 24 “It was wildly popular and met with enthusiasm by COST: $15 for Thursday; vendors,” she said. “Many locals attended and said it had the $13 for Friday; $18 for feel of what Friday night used to be for them and pledged to Saturday; and $7 for come back this year if we did it again.” Sunday In order to help people eat, drink and be merry, the FMI: Go to www. festival is providing free shuttle buses to the marina from seafoodandwine.com downtown Newport and major hotels, picking up festival guests until 7:30 pm on Friday and 4:30 pm on Saturday.

Admission to the Thursday, Feb. 21, opening, which runs from 5 to 9 pm, is $15 a head and by online ticket only, with no tickets sold at the gate. With festival organizers encouraging more people to book their tickets online ahead of time, gate tickets for the remaining three days might also be limited. “Gate sales Friday through Sunday will depend on the number of e-tickets sold,” Davis said. “They are more popular and may reduce what is available at the gate, particularly on Saturday.” The festival runs from noon to 9 pm on Friday, Feb. 22, with tickets priced at $13; from 10 am to 6 pm on Saturday, Feb. 23, with tickets $18 a head; and from 10 am to 4 pm on Sunday, Feb. 24, with tickets priced at $7.

lively Fund-raising with a bang Ointment to treat cases of auctioneer’s elbow will be selling at a premium in Lincoln City the morning after the chamber of commerce’s marathon fund-raiser, Super auction II - The Sequel. The event will see 13 pairs of volunteer auctioneers bringing down the gavel on items ranging from furniture to appliances to hotel stays for 13 hours on Saturday, Feb. 16. All the items are donated by local businesses or private individuals, with all proceeds going to fund the chamber’s civic activities. Bidders can see the action up close and personal in the Melville Room of Surftides hotel from 9 am to 10 pm, or tune in to a live web cast of the event by going to the chamber’s website, www.lcchamber.com. Each hour of the auction, volunteers will unveil new items and invite bids from the audience in the room as well as via a phone bank, also staffed by volunteers. The event reaches a climax with the “Hour of Power” from 9 to 10 pm, when the auctioneers will unveil all the large items, including a week in Bend donated by Chinook Winds Casino Resort and valued at $2,500. The auction will end with a spin of the “Wheel of Winners,” containing the names of successful bidders chosen at random from each hour of the event. The winner of the spin will walk away with the grand prize — a diamond tennis bracelet donated by Diamonds By The Sea and valued at $3,500. A new attraction this year is the Preview Party from 6 to 9 pm on Friday, Feb. 15, which gives people the chance to view the items the evening before the auction and place a private bid. The bids will remain sealed until public bidding on the item has concluded the following evening, with the chamber giving the auction bidder the chance to beat the reserve. Tickets for the event, which includes hors d’oeuvres and a no-host bar, are $15 apiece and are available now from the chamber. Volunteers and donations are still welcome. For more information, contact the chamber at 541-994-3070.

Pelican seeks help with large bill The Pelican Pub and Brewery in Pacific City is hoping that its fans will help it build a new production brewery in downtown Tillamook, a move that would allow the awardwinning beer makers to expand their brews’ reach. “We are absolutely thrilled that we have so many fans out there,” Pelican spokesperson Stephanie Starostka Welch said “However, there are a lot of people who keep asking why they can’t get our beer where they live.” Pelican is making use of the online crowd-funding platform Kickstarter to ask fans to back the brewery proj-

ect, with donations of anything from $1 upwards. In return, backers can receive exclusive perks tied to the size of their donation, ranging from a bumper sticker with the campaign slogan “Give ‘em the Bird” to a brew day with Brewmaster Darron Welch, including a two-night stay in Pacific City. The brewery project consists of building renovations and brewing equipment totaling $1.3 million, the bulk of which Pelican has raised from various sources. Starostka Welch said Pelican needs to raise at least $100,000 from its Kickstarter campaign to get the basics up and running. She said a total of $200,000 would give the brewers everything they need. As of Monday, Feb. 11, the campaign had raised $5,876 toward its $100,000 target with 18 days left to go. Under Kickstarter rules, campaigns must reach their target in order to receive any of the pledged funds. For more information, or to make a pledge, go to www.kickstarter.com and search for “Pelican Brewing Co.”

What a ham-some bunch Just because most of us are too chicken to run into a burning building or pull people from the raging surf doesn’t mean we can’t help beef up the local fire department. And what better way than a ham dinner? The Firefighters’ Ham Dinner, benefiting the volunteer firemen and women of North Lincoln Fire & Rescue District #1, has been taking place since 1958, helping firefighters raise funds to support their emergency work. Volunteers use the money raised to buy equipment that the district’s regular budget won’t stretch to, such as heart monitors, thermal imaging cameras, a new rapid deployment inflatable rescue craft and reciprocal saws for use in vehicle extractions. The annual ham dinner is a community affair, with Mo’s Restaurant donating marionberry cobbler for dessert, Kenny’s IGA donating facilities and supplies for the firefighters to slice the hams, and dozens of others contributing everything from flowers to coffee. The dinner runs from 11 am to 6:30 pm on Sunday, Feb. 17, at Taft High 7-12, 3780 Spyglass Ridge Drive, Lincoln City. Tickets are $8 for adults, $5 for children under 12 and free for toddlers aged 2 and under. As well as the chance to get acquainted with local rescuers, guests will be able to check out fire district vehicles and peruse information about how to prevent fire and how to prepare for emergencies such as earthquakes and tsunamis. Local CERT members and the American Red Cross will also be there to answer questions. For tickets, contact a volunteer or stop by the Bob Everest or Taft Stations. For more information, call 541-996-2233.

A clean up connection

Lincoln City will be the site of a public workshop on Japanese tsunami debris on Saturday, Feb. 16, and people are asked to help set the scene with a beach clean effort the day before. The tsunami that followed the March 2011 earthquake swept about 5 million tons of debris into the Pacific Ocean. Most of that debris sank off the coast of Japan, but an estimated 1.5 million tons were caught by currents and began reaching the western coast of the United States last year. The Japan Environmental Action Network ( JEAN), a non-governmental organization, will share information about the disaster recovery effort during a Feb. 14-16 visit to Lincoln City. The group recognizes the importance of collaborating with U.S. organizations and communities to research how Japanese tsunami debris has been affecting U.S. coastal communities. The visit will include a public workshop from 10 am to 3:30 pm on Saturday, Feb. 16, in the Convention Center at Chinook Winds Casino Resort. In the morning, participants will hear from Japanese citizens about the natural disaster recovery efforts and marine debris research. The afternoon sessions will focus on U.S. cleanup and research with time for questions from the audience. To coincide with the JEAN visit, the Oregon environmental stewardship group SOLVE is coordinating a public beach cleanup, starting at 9 am on Friday, Feb. 15, at the northern beach access at Chinook Winds Casino Resort. For more information and to register, visit solv.org or call 503-844-9571 extension 317.

in concert

Comfortable? Then let the swing begin. Remember how grade school teachers always told you not to swing on your chair? Well, while that might make sense in the classroom, it does not apply for the Saturday, Feb. 16, gig by the Lincoln Pops Big Band. Famous on the Oregon Coast for their dance gigs, the group is inviting their fans to take a seat and soak up ‘Saturday Night with the Lincoln Pops Big Band,’ a concert-style performance at the Newport Performing Arts Center. The band will perform some tunes they do not play at their dance performances, including hard-driving jazz, ballads, Latin and blues and even a polka with an accordion solo. The show will include songs such as “My Funny Valentine,” “Mr. Lucky,” “Bésame Mucho” and “Sing, Sing, Sing.” The group will also be playing some arrangements by their talented bass trombone player, Dave Robertson. Led by John Bringetto, the Pops are dedicated to preserving and passing along the heritage of the big band era. Members include current and retired professional musicians, band directors, former high school and college players as well as several talented local high school students. With five saxophones, five trumpets, four trombones, piano, guitar, bass, drums, congas, vibraphone and three vocalists, the Pops put on a dynamic show. The Feb. 16 gig will start at 7 pm at Newport Performing Arts Center, 777 W Olive Street. Tickets are $14 for adults and $10 for students. Children under 10 years old are free. Tickets are on sale at the PAC box office or call 541-265-2787. The band will be holding a raffle in the lobby to raise money to buy new music charts. The Lincoln Pops also play all-age gigs from 7:30- 10 pm on the third Thursday of each month at Gleneden Beach Community Club, 110 Azalea, Gleneden Beach.

Take it to the bridge! Stirling Bridge! Toe-tapping melodies, amusing stories, rhythmic foot percussion and poetry will fill Yachats’ Little Log Church on Feb. 24 in a pair of concerts from renowned Celtic music performer Jamie Laval. The gigs will see Laval, a 2002 winner of the U.S. National Scottish Fiddle Championship, join forces with Portland-based acoustic guitarist Dan Compton to present a “musical journey through the atmospheric Scottish Highlands.” A native of Seattle, Laval initially studied classical violin at the Victoria Conservatory of Music and made his living as a professional symphony musician, recording studio artist, improvising violinist and contra dance fiddler. But his passion for the haunting sounds of rural Scottish folk music eventually usurped all other preoccupations and he now devotes himself exclusively to Celtic music. In his passionate performances of traditional music of Scotland, Ireland, Brittany and Quebec, Laval blends an ancient art form with contemporary flair. Laval’s touring career includes more than 100 engagements per year throughout the U.S. and Scotland. He has appeared on NBC’s Today Show, Dave Matthews’ “Some Devil” album and performed for Queen Elizabeth II. His newest album, Murmurs and Drones, won the popular vote for “Best World Traditional Album” in the 2012 Independent Music Awards. The Feb. 24 gigs are scheduled for 2 and 7 pm in the Little Log Church, 328 W 3rd Street, Yachats. Tickets are $15 or $8 for students and are available at www.brownpapertickets.com/ event/316996.

Matured to perfection Some things, like red wine, blue cheese and good scotch, just get better with age. Add to that list the repertoire of Oregon Coast jazz combo Past Forward, who will be playing music worth repeating on Saturday, Feb. 16, in a gig to mark Lincoln City’s Antique Week. The band promises nostalgic songs from the ’20s through the ’60s, including popular standards,

show tunes and bossa nova. Some of the more familiar tunes will include “As Time Goes By,” “Fly Me to the Moon,” “Ain’t Misbehavin,” “Blue Skies” and “The Girl from Ipanema.” The dance floor will be open for dancers both vintage and modern to show off their moves. On stage, the group will be led by founder David. M Jones, who played guitar in a bluegrass band in the’70s, but says he was raised on radio and jazz, which remains his first love. He’s been a homebuilder by trade for years, but playing jazz guitar has become his passion during the last decade. Saxophonist Neal Staufenbeil learned to play when he was 13, and bought the tenor sax he plays now when he was 14. Neal played in many rock and roll bands in California and, now retired, has enjoyed getting into jazz since he moved to the Oregon Coast. Curtis Colt has been drumming since he was 16. He’s the route driver for Dahl Sanitary who carries a metronome in his lunch box. He also plays drums with CRC, a popular local classic rock band. Rounding out the group is Steve Driver, who first shared a bass with his brother when he was 12 and played in various rock and roll and blues garage bands before taking some time off to raise a family. He says playing jazz with Past Forward amounts to an advanced musical education. The group will take to the stage at 7 pm in the auditorium of the cultural center, 540 NE Hwy. 101, Lincoln City. Tickets are $10 advance or $12 at the door. For more information, call 541994-9994.

on stage A Verdi safe bet indeed

Don’t forget to buy tickets for this

Verdi’s 19th Century opera “Rigolettoâ€? is a story awash with every vice and sin under the sun, with lust, seduction, murder, bribery and betrayal all playing their part in the tragic tale. So when Director Michael Mayer had to decide where to set his modern-day version of the classic, the answer was simple — Las Vegas, in the ’60s. In this production, inspired by the antics of the Rat Pack, Piotr Beczala is the womanizing Duke of Mantua; Ĺ˝eljko Lucic is his tragic sidekick, Rigoletto; and Diana Damrau is Rigoletto’s daughter, Gilda. The performance from the Metropolitan Opera in New York City, will be beamed live via satellite link to the Newport Performing arts Center as part of The Met: Live in HD series. Starting at 10 am on Saturday, Feb. 16, the opera has a run time of three and half hours. Tickets are $20 for general admission; $17 for seniors; and $10 for students; and are available at the Newport Performing Arts Center box office, 777 W. Olive Street in Newport, or by phone at 541-265-2787. Box office hours are 9 am to 5 pm Monday through Friday and one hour prior to performance times. The Newport program is made possible thanks to support from Jeannette B. Hofer Fund at the Oregon Community Foundation, the City of Newport, season benefactors Anonymous and Bill and JoAnn Barton. “Rigolettoâ€? is hosted locally by Francisco and Barbara De Serpa.

For an actor, forgetting your lines is never good but the performers at the Tillamook Association for the Performing Arts have an extra incentive to make sure they remember the script for their upcoming show. “Memory,� TAPA’s third production of the 2012-13 season, is a pair of oneact plays, both of which explore the effects of growing older. In “I Can’t Remember Anything� by Arthur Miller, two old friends trade lighthearted banter and stinging exchanges to express their conflicting views of “life’s truths�. At the same time, they reveal their enduring mutual affection and the importance of companionship as the shadow of mortality lengthens. “The 75th� by Israel Horovitz, tells the story of two classmates who reconnect at their high school reunion 75 years after graduation. Now in their nineties, Arthur “Cookie� Silverstein and Amy Chamberlain, don’t even remember each other at first, but, as they review their memories and recall old friendships, the past begins to clarify and emerge. The cast of “Memory� includes Robert Kratz, Sandra Koops, Terri Winkle and director Bill Farnum, who has been involved in theater since 1980. Since moving to Oregon and becoming involved with TAPA, Farnum has directed two other productions, “Sylvia� and “Scotland Road,� and has been on stage acting and singing. The show opens on Feb. 22 and runs on Friday, Saturday and Sunday nights through Saturday, March 9. Curtain is at 7 pm on Fridays and Saturdays and 2 pm on Sundays. Tickets, $15 for adults; $10 for seniors and students; or $40 for a family of four are available at Diamond Art Jewelers, 503-842-7940. The Barn Community Playhouse is located at the corner of 12th and Ivy in Tillamook. For more information go to www.tillamooktheater.com or email info@tillamooktheater.com.

Stuffed to the rafters Tillamook museum display has natural history sewn up Story & photos by Patrick Alexander Oregon Coast TODAY

If you go WHAT: Alex Walker Natural History Room WHERE: Tillamook County Pioneer Museum, 2106 2nd Street, Tillamook WHEN: 10 am to 4 pm, Tuesday through Sunday COST: Adults, $4; seniors (62+), $3; children 10 to 17, $1; children under 10, free CALL: 503-842-4553

The next time someone tells you Tillamook has nothing but cows, tell them you know for a fact that if they look just a little harder, they can find a family of penguins. The dapper-looking crew is just one exhibit in the huge natural history collection at the Tillamook County Pioneer Museum and a small part of the legacy left by former museum curator and taxidermist Alex Walker. A largely self-taught biologist, it was to Walker that the museum turned in 1951, after receiving a $4,500 donation from Mrs. A. F. Coates to fund the creation of a natural history section. It took Walker three and half years to collect roughly 500 specimens for the collection, which, located on the museum’s second floor, includes nine dioramas depicting different habitat groups. The museum has added exhibits throughout the years but Walker’s work still forms the core of the collection, which includes specimens ranging from a hummingbird to a polar bear. Walker’s skill in preserving the beauty of the specimens he col-

12 • oregoncoastTODAY.com • facebook.com/oregoncoasttoday • february 15, 2013

lected is all the more impressive given the fact that, for most of his life, taxidermy was what he did in between shifts at the Tillamook Cheese Factory. Born in Nebraska in 1890, Walker displayed an early interest in nature, which was strengthened by a high school class in geology and teenage years spent in rural South Dakota. Walker’s family moved to Oregon in 1912 and, in 1914, he received field experience as part of a state Fish and Game Commission biological survey led by Vernon Bailey, United States chief field naturalist. After serving in the U.S. Coast Guard during World War I, Walker returned to Tillamook and took a job in the cheese factory, spending his spare time collecting specimens. In 1930, he got the chance to do what he loved for a living when the Cleveland Museum of Natural History hired him as a field ornithologist. In the following three years, Walker collected some 8,000 bird specimens from Arizona, California and Oregon for the museum’s collection. Almost 20 years later, opportunity knocked again with the Tillamook museum’s request and Walker set about creating a collection to rival any in the Pacific Northwest. Lise Zimmerman, registrar at the Tillamook County

Pioneer Museum said Walker would study specimens for as long as he could before collecting them. Limited to black and white camera film, Walker would take his paints with him on field expeditions so that he could match the colors of birds’ beaks, legs and other areas that would require coloring before display. “I can’t even imagine the man-hours,” she said. “Not only going out and finding stuff but them preserving it so that it could be used this way.” Most of the specimens Walker collected for the display are either native to the Pacific Northwest or migratory birds that pass through the area. Also present in the cases are some specimens that arrived on the Oregon Coast having been blown off course as well as some arctic specimens from Walker’s trips to northern Canada and the Bering Sea.

The guests from the other pole, Zimmerman said, found their way to the museum thanks to Walker contacting a group that he knew had just returned from Antarctica with several penguins in tow. “He told them ‘I’d like to preserve some for you,’” she said. “Can you imagine getting that letter today?” In 1955, Walker went on to become curator of museum along with his wife, Rosaline, a position he held until his death in 1975, at the age of 85 Thanks in part to the arsenic soap used in the taxidermy process, bugs do not bother Walker’s specimens, which are also protected from grasping hands by glass cases. As a result, more than 60 years after it was first assembled, Walker’s collection continues to offer inquiring minds the chance to study a world suspended in time.

Walker’s works run the gamut from hummingbirds to penguins to these snowy owls

Clever and very well-armed A close encounter of the eighth kind at the Oregon Coast Aquarium Story and Photos by Nancy Steinberg for the TODAY

What has eight arms, three hearts, nine brains, a beak, the intelligence of a house cat, and likes to play with Mr. Potato Head? Tough one, right? Give up? It’s the giant Pacific octopus, Enteroctopus dofleini, and you’ve just got to meet one up close. The Oregon Coast Aquarium offers just such an opportunity at its “Giant Pacific Octopus Encounter” program, a special behind-the-scenes tour where visitors can shake tentacles (and shake, and shake, and shake …) with one of these awesome invertebrates. These unique “meet-and-greets” begin with a review of octopus biology and ecology in the Aquarium’s classroom. On a recent Octopus Encounter, Aquarium education specialist Jessica Brostowitz explained everything from the octopus’s life cycle to its neurobiology to its feeding habits to its remarkable digestive system. I knew that the octopus harbors a parrot-like beak inside its mantle (the part that looks like its head) that it uses to eat, but I didn’t know that many species, including the giant Pacific, have a venom gland. Upon capturing prey, the octopus injects the venom into its body. An enzyme in the venom breaks down protein in the meal, softening it for easier consumption. After a couple of hours, the food is ready to be slurped up. Why? Brostowitz says “they have a pretty inconvenient digestive system” in which food has to actually pass through their donut-shaped brain, so it makes sense to soften up the food to facilitate that passage. What about those nine brains? Brostowitz explains that in addition to its main brain, the octopus has nerve bundles in each arm that are complex enough to be classified as brains unto themselves. Because each of their many, many suction discs acts essentially as a finger, they require a nervous system capable of operating all that machinery. They are notoriously intelligent animals, capable of solving puzzles, unfastening locks, and even harboring distinct personalities. One more set of fun facts before the main event: once a female octopus lays its first and only clutch of tens of thousands of eggs, her only remaining task in life is to guard those eggs. By the time they hatch, she is too weak to hunt, and will die soon afterward. Males also seem to come to the end of their life cycle after fertilizing eggs. At the Aquarium, when a captive octopus shows signs of “nesting,” like ceasing feeding, they let the animal go to live out the rest of its life in the wild. After a brief behind-the-scenes tour of various parts of the Aquar-

ium, we are led to meet the cephalopod celebrity herself (Octopus Encounter participants work with a dedicated animal, not the one on public display). Brostowitz brings out some food (shrimp and fish of restaurant quality, as is all of the seafood fed to the Aquarium’s residents), and pulls back the cover on the tank. There she is, a gorgeous giant Pacific octopus named Velocity. She almost appears to be curled up sleeping when we first flip back the tank’s cover – probably an apt description as she is nocturnal. But she very quickly understands that it’s feeding time. She turns brick red and begins moving with sinuous, graceful motions around the tank. Brostowitz invites me to touch her arms. Velocity responds instantly, wrapping multiple tentacles around my hands and arms. She is persistent and quite strong, and her suction discs leave perfectly round red marks where they have stuck to my skin. She is tasting me, and although she knows instantly that I am not food, she is still curious. I had read that octopuses in captivity have been observed to spend more time entwining tentacles around new people they meet than individuals that they have encountered many times. Brostowitz confirms that the octopuses she has worked with do seem genuinely curious about the people they meet. Further, they do have individual personalities, she says. Velocity is one of the more active, engaged animals they’ve had. Others have been shyer or quickly bored. Nothing about this animal is shy, I think, as I struggle to remove two, three, tentacles from my wrists. I feed her a shrimp, placing it against one of her suction discs. She moves the treat to her mantle, and it is gone from view. The aquarium staff recognizes the importance of providing stimulation and enrichment for such an intelligent animal. One way they do that is to make the octopus work a little harder for her meals, concealing the food in a variety of containers. Today, Brostowitz puts the bulk of Velocity’s meal inside a Mr. Potato Head toy. She attaches Mr.

As clear as black and white Here at the TODAY, we like people who come right out and say what they mean. No fancy titles, no ambiguity, just tell us what you’re doing where and when. For that very reason the title of Walidah Imarisha’s Feb. 23 talk “Why Aren’t There More Black People in Oregon? A Hidden History,” won a special place in our hearts. A Portland State University author and adjunct professor, Imarisha argues that Oregon has an uneven history that includes Black exclusion and discrimination and, at the same time, a vibrant Black culture that helped sustain many communities throughout the state — a history that is not taught in schools. The free program, part of Black History Month, is hosted by the Lincoln County Historical Society and sponsored by Oregon Humanities. Imarisha has taught in Portland State University’s Black studies department, where she has created classes about topics as diverse as the history of the Black Panther Party, race and the history of prisons, Hurricane Katrina and hip hop as literature. She has facilitated writing workshops in community centers, youth detention facilities and women’s prisons. The Feb. 23 talk will take place at 2 pm in the Carriage House of the Lincoln County Historical Society, 545 SW Ninth St., Newport. For more information, call 541-265-7509.

A busy patch for coastal quilting The Oregon Coast sees its fair share of migratory species passing through. Gray whales swimming north in spring; pelicans arriving to feed in summer and, in February, quilters driving in every which direction in search of prizes. Often observed carpooling in groups of three or four, the migratory quilter is distinctive for its use of phrases like “fat quarter,” “fussy cut” and “penny squares” and, until Feb. 18, will be a common sight along Highway 101. The cause of this migration? Quilt Run 101, a road trip-style challenge that sees quilters trying to visit as many as possible of the 15 participating quilt stores from Astoria to Brookings. Those who visit the most stores by Feb. 18 will be in the running for prizes. For more details, go to www.quiltrun101.com. Aside from the participating stores from Wheeler to Waldport, there are various other places where the migratory quilters can be spotted on the Central Coast. First, at the North Lincoln County Historical Museum in Lincoln City, the “Quilts of Lincoln County” exhibit is displaying quilts from the museum’s collections, as well as those of the Lincoln County Historical Society, including the Lincoln County Centennial Quilt. The free exhibit is open from noon to 5 pm, Wednesday through Saturday at 4907 SW Hwy. 101. Further south, in Newport, the carpooling flocks can observe “Golden Dahlia,” a quilt made by Veronica Engelmeier in the early 1950s, on display in the Log Cabin Museum of the Lincoln County Historical Society. Engelmeier made her first “Golden Dahlia” quilt about 1937 and auctioned it off at a church fundraiser. After 1950 she made a quilt for each of her six children, including Rose Troxel of Otter Rock, who chose the “Golden Dahlia” pattern. “My mother wouldn’t let us have our quilt until we had a home of our own, and I was a late bloomer,” Troxel said. The quilt arrived in 1968, two years after she married Bob Troxel. The pattern, copyrighted 1934, might have come from Capper’s Farmer and Farmer’s Wife, a magazine the family received. Engelmeier did her sewing on an old treadle machine and handstitched the quilt pieces. The quilt has been displayed on numerous occasions including the 1976 Newport Bicentennial in 1976 at Sam Case School, the Quilter’s Show, the Baptist Church and Sacred Heart Quilt and Handcraft Tea show. It will be on display from 11 am to 4 pm, Thursday through Saturday throughout April at the Log Cabin Museum, 545 SW Ninth Street. For more information, call 541-265-7509.

WANTED! Donations to help our son while he is battling leukemia Our son, Matt PaulsEn is 34 years old, is married to a great girl, Heather, and has three amazing kids, Naomi is 3 months old, Braylen 2, and Owen 4 years old. On January 10, Matt went to the hospital for what he thought was the flu. All of us were not prepared for what the doctors were about to tell us. Matt was diagnosed with two types of leukemia (AML and ALL). Our family has been devastated and would have never thought this could happen to us. We have owned restaurants in Lincoln City and Depoe Bay for 9 years and have supported many different fundraisers, including leukemia. We are used to being on the giving end and not on the receiving, so this is hard for us to ask. What we’re asking for is: for every meal purchased at The Chowder Bowl or 60’s Cafe we’re asking $1 or more be donated for our son and we’ll give you $2 off the price of your meal. We will also have gift baskets to raffle off courtesy of local businesses with proceeds going to Matt’s donation account. To all who have donated, we give a heart felt thank you!

Mixing it up in Manzanita Like a chef who has pored over cookbooks full of recipes, Seattle-based author Erica Bauermeister has done her research when it comes to learning her craft. Bauermeister, who will read from her new book at The Hoffman Center in Manzanita on Saturday, Feb. 16, went on something of a crash course after becoming frustrated by the lack of women authors in her university curriculum. In the following years, she read thousands of books, good and bad, in preparation for co-authoring “500 Great Books by Women: A Reader’s Guide” and “Let’s Hear It For the Girls: 375 Great Books for Readers 2-14.” When Bauermeister turned her own hand to fiction, the result was “The School of Essential Ingredients,” a novel about food and people and the relationships between them — about taking those “unimportant” bits of life and making them beautiful. “The School of Essential Ingredients” has been published in 23 countries. Her second book, “Joy for Beginners,” is a book club favorite. Now, Bauermeister has returned to the scene of her first novel in “The Lost Art of Mixing,” catching up with old characters and bringing new ones into the mix. The Feb. 16 event will include a reading from the book, which Booklist describes as “Warm, funny, and deeply comforting.” After Bauermeister’s reading and Q&A, there will be an open mic, where up to nine local writers will read five minutes of their original work. The event will take place at 7 pm at the Hoffman Center, 594 Laneda Avenue, Manzanita. Admission is $7. For more information, go to hoffmanblog.org or contact Vera Wildauer, vwildauer@gmail.com.

Flutter into the Pelican for pupation education Folks interested in hearing about the plight of the endangered Oregon Silverspot butterfly are invited to spend an evening at the establishment that has taken the threatened creature under its wing. Last summer, the Pelican Pub and Brewery in Pacific City launched its Silverspot IPA and announced its decision to donate a portion percent of the proceeds from the beer to restoration of Silverspot habitat. Now Hebo Stewardship Group in collaboration with the Nestucca Neskowin Watershed Council is inviting the public to join local biologists at the Pelican Pub on Tuesday, Feb. 19, to sample the fare and hear more about the life of the threatened butterfly and the effort underway to save it from extinction.

one man’s beach

John Reed running

C O M M E N TA R Y • B Y M A T T L O V E

As an adolescent growing up in Portland and when on summer break from Harvard, John Reed frequently visited the North Oregon Coast and wrote about these experiences in some of his first published work. This was a few years before he rode with Pancho Villa in Mexico, consorted with Trotsky, Lenin and Stalin in Russia, wrote Ten Days that Shook the World, became the country’s most famous romantic revolutionary and radical journalist, and the obsession of Warren Beatty who starred as Reed in the classic 1981 film “Reds.” Reed died in 1920 and is the only American ever buried in the Kremlin Wall. On one trip in 1908 when he was 21, Reed, a native Oregonian, described the North Oregon Coast as a place of “wildness and desolation that cannot be imagined.” In his essay “From Clatsop to Necarney,” he sketched the story of a September hike from Seaside over Tillamook Head to the base of Mount Neahkahnie and the beach at Oswald West State Park. In this piece, (and a few others recounting or fictionalizing outdoor adventures) Reed always described what it meant to be a young man in awe and in love with Oregon nature, totally free, away from the city, lectures, a “vagabond,” as he called himself. Of course in that era, he was unaffected by popular youth culture because capitalism hadn’t invented one yet. He decided for himself what was cool and what would engage him and at this point of his life, briefly, before class politics took over, what engaged him was taking on a wild place without gadgets and writing lyrically about everything he saw, felt and intuited. Every now and then, I’ve had the privilege of teaching students who remind me of Reed in “From Clatsop to Necarney.” You never forget them. They change you. My most recent one was named Asher Doyle, an expert on culinary mushrooms who founded a mushroom appreciation club a few years ago at Newport

High School where I teach. Asher would often bring me chanterelles he picked and sauté them in butter on a little propane stove set up in the parking lot. These were the best school lunches of my career and I might have been the only teacher in the country to enjoy such free haute cuisine served on a paper plate. I think a young John Reed and Asher Doyle would have got along famously. What a magical story Reed tells. Resting by Elk Creek near Cannon Beach, he wrote that his two friends, “stretched upon our backs, and dreaming under the old, old trees, while the spell of the place and the bright strong day took hold upon our hearts.” They revived and continued walking down the beach where they “ate lunch, and smoked a fragrant pipe.” Nearby in the trees, a few squatters lived, “many of them alone, silent men for the most part, filled no doubt with the hush of great spruces and the stars, and the sonorous silence of the sea.” Later toward evening, Reed and his buddies caught eight trout, “which we devoured ravenously.” They snoozed around a campfire until dark and then, “stripped and dashed into the surf.” After a short swim, “came a long run up the beach and back, racing along naked in the dark, thrilling with the starlight and the firm white sand, pagans again and star-worshipers to the bottom of our souls.” I believe very few men or women can go wrong with experiences in youth like John Reed’s on the Oregon Coast. I just wonder: are we doing enough as a culture to create more John or Jane Reeds? I’m not talking about procreation. (To see where John Reed frolicked, head to Oswald West State Park and take the Necarney Creek Trail.) Matt Love lives in South Beach and is the author/editor of eight books about Oregon, available through his web site at nestuccaspitpress.com or coastal bookstores.
