Where the past is present

F

or last week’s dining guide feature on the 40th birthday of Gallucci’s Pizzeria, I had cause to try and get my hands on a photograph of the old Liston Lodge holiday cottages that used to stand on the lot now occupied by the restaurant.

Fortunately, Lincoln City is a town that takes its history seriously, so my ďŹ rst stop was clear — the historical context statements available on the City’s website. Commissioned by the Lincoln City Urban Renewal Agency, these six documents lay out the history of each of the settlements that combined to form Lincoln City in 1965. Sure enough, as I leafed through the statement for the Wecoma area where Gallucci’s sits, I soon saw a picture of the cute cottages staring out at me. Anne Hall, executive director of the North Lincoln County Historical Museum and author of the Wecoma statement, could not have been more helpful when I went to her with a slate of requests. Can I get it in color? Yes. Can I get it in high resolution? Yes. Can I get it tomorrow? Yes. And the museum itself, located at 4907 SW Hwy. 101 in the Taft district, is far more than just a repository for photos of buildings long since razed to the ground. Visitors heading through the doors this Spring Break will be greeted by exhibits about Indian history as well as the arrival of pioneer settlers, complete with descriptions of harsh conditions and ingenious inventions. In the center of the ďŹ rst oor gallery, a special exhibit of dolls donated by longtime Roads End resident Crichton Jones is on display. Upstairs, guests can see a special exhibit about the coast’s Depression years as well as a permanent exhibit about how the area fared during World War II. The second oor is also home to permanent exhibits focusing on Lincoln City’s early days as a vacation destination, from the rise of the automobile to the development of attractions like the Pixieland theme park and the riotous Redhead Roundup — the kind of event that would bring today’s risk analysts out in a cold sweat. The museum is currently on its winter schedule, and is open from noon to 5 pm Wednesday through Saturday. Admission, thanks to a grant from the Lincoln City Visitor & Convention Bureau, is free.

We just want to get people out of their houses and having a good time doing something good for the planet, breathing the fresh air, and hearing good music.” The outdoor event will run from noon to 6 pm at the picnic shelter area behind the Yachats Commons, 441 Hwy 101 N.

A

s the final act in a week-long magic festival featuring people being cut in half and floating through the air, Regina Wollrabe has some big shoes to fill. But, for the woman otherwise known as Cha Cha the Clown, that shouldn’t be a problem. Wollrabe and her 12-year-old son, Andre, will be the last of four headlining acts at the Festival of Illusions, which runs from March 24 to 28 at the Lincoln City Cultural Center. Cha Cha the Clown’s French Toast Circus, which will take to the stage on Thursday, March 27, is packed with an array of madcap clowning skills that Wollrabe has spent a lifetime developing. But her shows were not always WHAT: Festival of Illusions so raucous.

But as the years went by, Wollrabe felt the need to escape from that glass box and started thinking about the idea of performing at birthday parties as a clown. Her husband, Waldo, encouraged her and, from the very first time she got into costume, she knew she had found her calling. “When I first put on a clown nose and discovered I could talk rather than be silent, I decided I liked this idea of being able to talk,” she said.

Wollrabe took her new Regina Wollrabe, aka: role seriously, joining Cha Cha the Clown Clowns of America, International; getting involved with her local Rose City Clowns group in Portland; and learning how to do magic tricks, balloon animals, comic skits and facepainting. “I just got to take all the things that I love in the arts, theater and with children and just wrap it up into one big package,” she said, “and Cha Cha the Clown was born.” Clowning went on to become something of a family business, with all four of the couple’s sons getting involved in some sort of performance art. As well as a love of the stage, Wollrabe and her sons also share a diagnosis of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, or ADHD, a condition she said has influenced their work “We struggle in real life with ADHD moments, like waking up and getting to school on time,” she said, adding that this scenario is the basis for a skit where she tries to wake her son Andre with a succession of ever-louder stunts. “This is real life for us,” she said, “but, now that we put it into clown, we can laugh about it.” Cha Cha the Clown’s French Toast Circus, a one–set show, takes to the stage at 7 pm on Thursday, March 27 at the cultural center, 540 NE Hwy. 101. Advance tickets are $6 for adults and $4 for kids 12 and under. Prices go up $1 at the door.

Magic of an altogether different sort will play out on stage at Lincoln City’s Theatre West this weekend, as “The Big Five-Oh,” continues its four-week run. The comedy, written by Brian Mitchell and directed by Wes Ryan, opens with the long-suffering George Thomas just trying to get through the week running up to his 50th birthday. Despite the challenges of a neurotic wife, a slacker son, a geriatric dog and a daughter who wants to marry a Republican, George emerges to discover the wonders of family — and the results of

his latest physical. The play runs through March 29, with performances at 8 pm on Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays and doors opening at 7:30 pm. On Sunday, March 23, there will be a matinée presentation at 2 pm, with doors opening at 1:30 pm. On regular performance days, the box office is open at 2 pm at the theater, located at 3536 SE Hwy. 101 in Lincoln City. Tickets for the show are $12 for adults; $10 for seniors aged 62 and up and students over 12; and $8 for children 12 and under. A special

one man’s beach C O M M E N TA R Y • B Y M A T T L O V E

Inspired by rain, written on the beach

M

y new book is about rain, but it has very little to do with weather. Inspiration began unexpectedly one Sunday in January 2012 when I learned that someone I loved was leaving me for someone else. She told me over the phone prior to boarding a plane ying to the sunniest places on earth with, presumably, her new boyfriend. That afternoon, rain moved like a gray phalanx across the yard. As I looked out the window, I felt crushed. I had never seen this coming and was shocked how my intuition had betrayed me. The story now, however, was not about recrimination, but how to advance, always advance, and learn new lessons and a new path. Rain called to me that Sunday in a way I had never heard before. It was a recruiting pitch and I enlisted in

Starting Friday, March 21st... Hayao Miyazaki’s Final Masterpiece (PG-13)

a leaderless and mysterious association of rain. I left my room, donned the pea coat, and walked directly into the phalanx. I knew a discovery of the utmost importance awaited me out there. I walked to the beach and back to the house. I repeated this circuit three times, something like 10 miles. I did the same thing the next night and the night after that. It rained 4.65 inches in 24 hours on one of those days. This went on for a month. I never ran nor listened to music, although occasionally I took photographs of my mood. Sometimes I took Sonny the husky but usually I was alone. I virtually never slept. I never once considered talking about it with anyone else. Rain and I talked. We had our best conversations on the beach. I always have my best conversations on the beach, whether another human being is accompanying me or not. Not long after I started walking in rain, I stood facing the whiteboard in my classroom. Behind me, 37 seniors in my English class at Newport High School watched me prepare to demonstrate a pre-writing process I call “stream of consciousness outlining.â€? I encourage students to try this activity prior to beginning their personal research essay, a 2,000-word “descent into one’s self â€? assignment where they assay the ultimate exploratory question of their lives. The process begins by the student writing the subject he wants to explore on a piece of butcher paper. In some cases, the word might be “divorceâ€? or “depression.â€? The student begins writing or drawing anything related to the subject that comes to mind. If it rolls out with linearity, ďŹ ne. If not, so be it. Follow the tangents. Just don’t stop, don’t block, and keep talking to yourself aloud during the process. The ultimate question may emerge, or it may not.

THE WIND RISES

I wrote the word “rainâ€? on the whiteboard. Then I started manically sketching rain, trying to render all the multitudinous ways it falls in our region. Questions arose: what is rain? Why do I love it? How much has fallen on me in 15 years residing on the Oregon Coast? What’s inside a box of rain? What does rain do to people here? Next, as I sang Creedence Clearwater Revival’s “Who’ll Stop the Rain?â€? I jotted down imaginary rain-themed organizations, competitions, aďŹƒliations, oďŹƒces, distinctions and awards, such as: First Team All Rain, Umbrella Eradication Project, League of Wet Dogs, Legion of Rain, Order of Rainy Day Women, Live Rust, Monochrome Adventure Club and Rain Anonymous. After this came spontaneous comparisons to the sun, writing in a style previously unknown to me. This went on for 10 minutes and then I stopped, stepped back, stepped forward, and wrote my research question: “What happens when you walk in rain?â€? I think my students thought I had lost my mind and maybe I had. Two years later, I published a book, “Of Walking in Rain,â€? that completes the assaying of that question. I don’t necessarily recommend walking in rain as a method to write a book or recovering from a severe emotional loss, but it worked for me one winter on the Oregon Coast. Thank the literary gods I had the beach, where I wrote almost every word of this book in my head and never paid a cent while doing so.

The winter rain vacation MEMO

TO: Oregon Coast Lodging Establishments SUBJECT: Inventing the Rain Vacation FROM: Matt Love, self appointed expert in rain, author of a book on rain, and resident of the Oregon Coast for 17 years.

The French symbolist poet Arthur Rimbaud once wrote in a letter to a friend, “Advance always.â€? I, for one, listen to poets and consistently follow Rimbaud’s advice, particularly with rain. Not long ago, I discovered that some of my best creative energy results when I advance into rain. I also learned that engaging rain can nurture entrepreneurial visions that shamelessly enrich visionaries of rain. You could be that visionary. Please take a minute to read this gratuitous memo about better monetizing your lodging business. Rain is the means to grow. Open your mind. Reverse the deluge to your advantage. Turn gray into gold. Yes, yes, I know many of you view rain quite dierently, pejoratively. The bemoaning. The complaining. All those profane insults, all those dismal vacancy rates that challenge you to stay aoat. But that was then, and the future is now. By suddenly embracing rain you will expand your business in liquid, lucrative ways you never dreamed possible because you never dreamed about rain before. You have absolutely nothing to lose except clichĂŠ and the sadly mediocre notion that rain is only about the weather. Here’s what I advocate: This winter, oer folks an unprecedented “Rain Vacationâ€? on the Oregon Coast and build a fresh

existential brand for the region that will surely attract all manner of new visitors during the so-called o dead season. Advance your print, radio, television and social media marketing right into rain. Sell rain and sell it hard. In recent years, I have found that many introspective people crave rain, enjoy staring silently at its beauty and simplicity and love diving into rain’s metaphors of clarity and cleansing. They might even live in Southern California or Arizona. Just gently invite them. Throw in some bargains for wet dogs, too. In your promotion, play up the blissful isolation, the wholesome solitude of walking beaches alone during big storms, the multiple relaxation and reection possibilities of seeing gorgeous gray skies, monochrome landscapes and perpetual rain falling sideways into a rolling black ocean. Too many people spend millions of dollars to travel where the sun constantly shines and foreign capital enslaves locals and monkeys to exploit the sun for proďŹ t and banal New Age insights. In contrast, the quintessential Oregon Coast Rain Vacation oers timeless Old Age wisdom and for a lot less money. If you do proceed with my proposal, I’d like to oer some ideas to enhance the Rain Vacation experience. Construct a clear plastic or glass shelter where a visitor can enjoy watching and listening to the rain. Maybe put up a hammock.

Provide each visitor a bar of soap made with rain. (I know of at least one coastal manufacturer.) Have guests memorize this rain mantra and recite at dinner. Rain is born to run, the sun born to sit in a soft chair. Rain is wanton, exciting, the sun constant, boring. Rain gallivants, the sun merely beams. Rain plays chess and solitaire with you at the same time. The sun speaks in monologues while rain always dialogues. Amen. Hire a house band for your lounge that plays nothing but rain songs and contractually obligate them to close every show with Credence Clearwater Revival’s “Who’ll Stop the Rain?â€? or Prince’s “Purple Rain.â€? Be sure the lounge also oers drink specials such as vodka and rain on the rocks or bourbon neat with a rain chaser. Set up a sustainable rain collection system so visitors can drink and bathe in rainwater. Stock your DVD library with rain movie classics. “Bladerunnerâ€? is a must. Hold Twister contests in the rain. The senior citizens will love it! Provide a copy of my book, “Of Walking in Rain,â€? for all rain vacationers to serve as a kind of eccentric manual or quasi-spiritual guide. (I’ll give you a hefty bulk discount!) Also provide Ken Kesey’s “Sometimes a Great Notion,â€? the greatest

rain book in the history of world literature. Create a special rain club for kids and deck them out in rain swag. Feel free to poach any of these suggested names: Rain Appreciation Society, Umbrella Eradication Project, Legion of the Rain, Fellowship of the Rain, The Masters of Rain, Monochrome Adventure Club, The Puddle Smashers, Pale Order of Rainy Day Gothic Teens. Please consider my proposal. Rain is Oregon’s greatest cultural asset and completely free of charge. Why not extol and harness it for languid pleasure and pure proďŹ t? Finally, some last words of advice for your bold new marketing direction: 1) under no circumstances should you ever issue any guest an umbrella no matter how much the weaklings beg; 2) always oer a rain check when the Rain Vacation craze hits and packs your establishment to the leaking, moldy roof with an entirely new kind of tourist. One added bonus about them — they’re very, very, quiet and party in mind only. Matt Love’s latest book, “Of Walking in Rain,â€? is available at nestuccaspitpress.com and coastal bookstores.

Eddyville Community Church will present an evening of gospel music direct from Nashville on Thursday, March 27, when the Blackwood Legacy Quartet comes to town for a free community concert. Boasting an unbroken lineage to the Grammy Award-winning Blackwood Brothers, the group links the best of Southern gospel’s traditional sound with today’s newer country gospel and worship music. The group is fronted by lead singer Daniel Childs, great grandson of the Blackwood Brothers’ founding father, Roy Blackwood. Spokane native Luke Yates sings baritone with the group and is also an awardwinning pianist. Tenor singer Paul Secord, formerly a featured singer for Disney World, has a reputation as one of the most talented in gospel music today. Lastly, group owner and bass singer, Rick

Price, was originally a protÊgÊe of Cecil Blackwood, a second-generation member of the original Blackwood Brothers group. Price got his start with the Blackwood Brothers in 1977, running sound and driving the tour bus before stepping into the role of tenor. He sang with the group on and o for more than 20 years and, in 1998, was inducted along with the rest of the group into the Country Music Hall of Fame. In 2000, after the death of Cecil Blackwood, Price was one of three group members who formed Blackwood Legacy. Now signed to Mansion Records, the Blackwood Legacy Quartet performs nearly 250 shows across the country each year. The March 27 show will start at 7 pm at Eddyville Community Church, 20712 Hwy. 20. Admission is free and an oering will be received. For more information, call 541-875-4971.

The concert, to be held at the Newport Performing Arts Center on Sunday, March 23, will include a medley from Rodgers and Hammerstein’s “The King and I,â€? as well as a transcription of Grieg’s “March of the Trolls.â€? The group will go on to perform “Trick

Get some cold, hard facts The Cape Perpetua Visitor Center near Yachats will oer a glimpse into the past on Saturday, March 22, when it hosts a presentation on stone tool making from Siuslaw National Forest archaeologist Kevin Bruce. “Because stone does not degrade easily, stone artifacts represent the only evidence about past human activities in many areas around the world,â€? Visitor Center Director Lori Robertson said. “Kevin’s demonstration will provide some basic examples of stone tool manufacture, and present information on how archaeologists use stone artifacts to address questions concerning past human behavior.â€?

The presentation will also include a display of Native American stone tools including ďŹ sh hooks, harpoon heads, net weights, digging sticks, and other examples of native technology that people will be able to touch and ask questions about. Bruce earned his Bachelor of Arts and Master of Arts in anthropology from Mississippi State University and Eastern New Mexico University. He has been the forest archaeologist for the Siuslaw National Forest since 2011 and has more than 15 years of experience in the ďŹ eld, including serving as a district archaeologist on National Forests in Mississippi and

chief archaeologist for the Mississippi Department of Transportation. Bruce’s presentation runs from 2 to 3 pm in the visitor center’s exhibition hall. Doc Slyter, an elder of the Hanis Coos Tribe, will play ute music before and after the talk, starting at 1:30 pm. Slyter has been playing and making wooden utes for 12 years and has performed for many local events and school programs. The visitor center is located three miles south of Yachats on Highway 101 and a $5 day-use pass is required at Cape Perpetua Scenic Area.

Keep your eyes peeled during Spring Whale Watch Week

W

ith some 18,000 gray whales migrating northward along the Oregon Coast, this year’s Spring Whale Watch Week offers more indoor locations than ever to allow people to keep their eyes on the ocean, whatever the weather.

The Oregon Parks and Recreation Department’s recent purchase of the Lookout Gift Shop at Cape Foulweather means spotters at this popular site will be able to take shelter within the clifftop structure while continuing to scour the ocean for signs of giants on the move.

The West Shelter at Cape Perpetua Visitor Center

Spring Whale Watch Week, which runs from March 22 to 29, will see volunteers on duty at 24 “Whale Watching Spoken Here” sites along the coast. From 10 am to 1 pm each day, they will answer questions and share tips about spotting gray whales journeying from the breeding grounds on Mexico’s Baja coast to the summer feeding grounds in the Bering and Chukchi Seas. With whales tending to travel between one and three miles from the shore, watchers with a pair of binoculars or even just the naked eye stand a great chance of seeing the telltale spouts — great plumes of water

Whale Watch Week activities • At Cape Perpetua Visitor Center, naturalist Michael Noack will present “Experiencing Gray Whales” on Monday, March 24, and Thursday, March 27, at 11:30 am in the theater. Visitor Center Director Lori Robertson will offer a program called “Gray Whales — The Journey” on Sunday, March 23, Friday, March 28, and Saturday, March 29, at 11:30 am in the theater. Other activities during the week will include movies on whales and special programs for children. The center also houses a variety of whale exhibits including; bones and baleen from gray whales, huge jawbones from a blue whale, a bowhead baleen and sperm whale teeth. The center will be open from 10 am to 4 pm every day of the

week, starting March 19. A $5 day-use pass is required at Cape Perpetua Scenic Area. For more information, call 541-547-3289 or go to www.fs.usda.gov/ siuslaw. • Newport’s Hatfield Marine Science Center is also offering special programming every day during Whale Watch Week. At 1:30 pm each day, the Hennings Auditorium will feature presentations including hands-on whale exhibits, such as baleen and skulls. The center also offers marine mammal displays and exhibits, marine mammal videos and a list of gray whale sightings along the coast. Located at 2030 SE Marine Science Drive, the center is open daily from 10 am to 5 pm throughout the week.

propelled up to 12 feet high as the leviathans surface to exhale. While Cape Foulweather held its own during last year’s spring event, with watchers recording 88 sightings, it was blown out of the water (so to speak) by the Cape Perpetua Visitor Center near Yachats, where spotters saw 259 whales in the eight-day period. Not only does the center offer an indoor viewing gallery where spotters can stay warm and dry but more adventurous souls can set up in the rugged West Shelter. Built by the Civilian Conservation Corps in the 1930s, the stone shelter offers breathtaking views of the ocean below, unobstructed by glass. Throughout the week, the center will host Whale Watch volunteers from 10 am to 1 pm, as well as a range of activities, naturalist programs and themed films. See sidebar for details. Meanwhile, the Depoe Bay Whale Watching Center will again serve as the hub for the week’s activities, despite being in the middle of a thorough remodel. The 1956 building, perched next to the city’s narrow harbor entrance, currently has walls stripped down to bare concrete as part of the work. But, more importantly, its new windows are in place, offering a crystal clear view of the bay and beyond. Soft mats underfoot will make things more comfortable for

spotters committed to the long haul. Oregon State Park rangers and volunteers will be at the Whale Watching Center from 10 am to 4 pm each day of Whale Watch Week. Indoor whale spotting is also available at the enclosed gazebo in Newport’s Don Davis Park, as well as from Fathoms Restaurant & Bar at the Inn at Spanish Head in Lincoln City — which has the distinction of being the only official whale-watching site where you can also get a martini.

get out!

Sign up. Show up. Clean up. Oregonians are a tidy bunch and not the kind of people who would leave ďŹ ve orca whales lying around on their beaches. That’s how much garbage and debris volunteers removed from the coastline during last spring’s SOLVE beach clean — almost 28 tons worth. On Saturday, March 22, SOLVE is inviting beach lovers to do the same again by hitting the sands from 10 am to 1 pm at clean up stations along the coast. “Discarded items, like cigarette butts and tiny bits of plastic ow into our rivers and streams to the PaciďŹ c Ocean where they can be toxic to marine life,â€? SOLVE Program Coordinator Joy Irby said. “By helping to remove litter, you are taking an active role in minimizing this threat and giving back to Oregon’s beaches.â€? Mark Saelens, SOLVE zone captain for the Lincoln City beach cleanups, said he has seen the power of a community uniting to achieve a goal many times. “The real tangible change is right here in our own communities,â€? he said, “and we can all make a dierence working together.â€? To volunteer for the clean up, go at solveoregon.org or call 503-844-9571.

Plenty of birds. No bill. Oregon, needless to say, loves its Ducks. But football aside, the Yaquina Birders & Naturalists are hoping that folks of all stripes will turn out for a birding ďŹ eld trip to Alsea Bay and Eckman Lake near Waldport on Saturday, March 22. Roy Lowe will lead the Pied-billed Grebe two-hour excursion, which will give participants Photo by Roy W. Lowe the chance to see duck species including Buehead, Wigeon, Green-winged Teal Northern Pintail, American and Mallard on the 50-acre

learn a little Notion meets ocean

The watery fate of an Oregon Coast resort conceived as a rival to Atlantic City is laid out in a new exhibit now open at the Tillamook County Pioneer Museum. “Bayocean Park: A Grand Notion� features photographs and artifacts from the museum’s collection and tells the story of Thomas Benton Potter and his son T. Irving Potter as they imagined, designed and developed the resort town on the Bayocean Spit near Tillamook at the beginning of the 20th century. A grand hotel, amusement park, dance hall and natatorium were all planned for the site along with cottages and bungalows. The exhibit shows what happened when these men’s best

laid plans came up against the unstoppable power of the PaciďŹ c Ocean. The exhibit will be on display in the Main and Northwest Galleries until July 25 and is included in the regular admission price. For more information, go to www.tcpm.org or call 503-842-4553.
