get out!

Free fish, on a grand scale The Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife is inviting anglers to check out fishing spots throughout the state for free on Saturday, June 1, and Sunday, June 2, with the return of Free Fishing Weekend. On these two days, ODFW will waive all fees associated with recreational fishing, clamming and crabbing throughout the state. This year, outdoor enthusiasts will have even more reason to get out and explore because Free Fishing Weekend will coincide with the Oregon Parks Department’s “All Camping Day” on Saturday, June 1, when admission to all state parks will be free. David Lane, acting deputy administrator of the ODFW’s Information and Education Division, said the two events are aimed at helping people discover the joy of fishing and the places where they can cast their lines into the water. “Some of the best fishing in Oregon takes place within our state parks,” he said. “By aligning these two events, we are making it even easier for folks to get out and find some great fishing holes.”

To help beginning anglers get started, ODFW and some of its partners, including Cabela’s, the US Forest Service, and the Association of Northwest Steelheaders, are offering several Free Fishing Weekend events across ODFW’s Northwest Region. ODFW staff and volunteer instructors will be available at these events to assist people who want to learn how to fish. The department will also loan out rods, reels and tackle to people who do not have their own gear, on a first-come, first-served basis. Free fishing events on the Central Coast include: Newport – Big Creek Reservoir #2, 9 am to 2 pm Saturday, June 1. There is no parking at the event site, so participants will need to catch the Valley Retriever from either the Walmart parking lot in Newport or Big Creek Park below Reservoir #1 at 2510 NE Big Creek Road. There is limited parking available at Big Creek Park. A bus will leave the Walmart parking lot and event site approximately every 15 minutes from 8:30 am to 2:30 pm, and each will stop

at Big Creek Park on their way. For more information, contact Christine Clapp at 541-265-8306, ext. 253. Rockaway Beach – Nedonna Pond, 9 am to 2 pm, Saturday June 1. This event, just west of Hwy 101 in the Manhattan Beach area, is geared for youngsters 12 and under. The pond will be stocked for this event with 750 hatchery trout. For more information, contact Joe Watkins at 503-368-6828. Tillamook – Trask River Fish Hatchery, 9 am to 2 pm, Saturday, June 1. The hatchery is about 7 miles southeast of Tillamook at 15020 Chance Road. From Tillamook, head east on Hwy 6 for 2.5 miles to Trask River Road. Travel south on Trask River Road 2.5 miles to Chance Road. Proceed east on Chance Road 2.5 miles to the hatchery. For more information, contact Jim Skaar at 503842-4090. In addition, Free Fishing weekend will see 1,000 trout added to Cape Meares Lake and Hebo Lake near Tillamook as well as 2,500 larger trout and 1,500 trophy trout added to Olalla Creek Reservoir near Toledo.

A walk back in time at National Trails Day Gems heading for

Yachats is inviting footpath fans to help the community mark National Trails Day on Saturday, June 1, with the dedication of the new Ya’Xaik Trail as well as a range of activities aimed at highlighting the area’s natural, historical and cultural heritage. The Ya’Xaik Trail (pronounced yäh’ khīk) is named for the only known village of the Alsea people who originally inhabited the area. Its newest leg, completed in April, enables hikers to complete just over a one-mile loop from the historic 804 Trail North along the ocean at the Overleaf Lodge, through the Gerdemann Botanic Preserve and across Siuslaw National Forest land between the preserve and the Fisterra Gardens Apartments. At this point, trail users can cross Highway 101 and return to the 804 Trail. The Yachats Trails Committee’s hope is to one day extend a link to the 804 Trail South into downtown Yachats. Yachats Mayor Ron Brean said the trail is the result of a longterm vision and many years of collaborative planning between the City of Yachats, the Siuslaw National Forest, area landowners and many citizen volunteers. “Trails, and the environments they traverse, have both economic and symbolic importance”, Brean said. “Trails connect communities; they bridge cultures and they can connect the past and the future. The City of Yachats is especially grateful to the Siuslaw National Forest, Angell Job Corp’s Urban Forestry Program and the many land owners and tireless volunteers who have assisted with creation of this outstanding resource that will benefit residents and visitors for years to come.” The day will begin at 11:30 am with a 90-minute interpretive tour from Oregon State Parks Ranger Brian Fowler entitled “A Guided Hike Through Time and Culture on the Historic 804 Trail.” The tour will depart from the north parking lot of the

Yachats Commons at 441 Hwy 101 N. and end by 1 p.m. at the new trail dedication site at the east end of Diversity Drive near the Fisterra Gardens Apartments trail entrance. Due to lack of parking at the trail dedication site, shuttles will pick up and deliver visitors to the dedication. Shuttles will begin running from the north parking lot of the Yachats Commons at 12:30 pm and return attendees following the ceremony and reception. Speakers at the 1 pm dedication ceremony will include Robert Kentta, cultural resources director and Tribal Council member with the Confederated Tribes of Siletz Indians; Yachats Mayor Ron Brean; Central Coast District Ranger Michele Jones; State Senator Arnie Roblan; State Representative Caddie McKeown; and Lincoln County Commissioner Bill Hall. Following the dedication, attendees can hike the newest leg of the trail from the Fisterra Gardens trail entrance to the Gerdemann Botanic Preserve footpath, a route that includes moderate terrain and some steps. US Forest Service seasonal interpreters will be stationed along the way. Pet owners should note that only service animals will be allowed at the dedication, reception and on the Fisterra Gardens to Gerdemann Botanic Preserve link of the Ya’Xaik Trail. In addition, dogs are prohibited on the Gerdemann Botanic Preserve footpath at all times. Attendees are also invited to join a reception at the Overleaf Lodge Event Center at 280 Overleaf Lodge Lane to explore displays and learn about the activities of organizations including the Siuslaw National Forest, Oregon State Parks, View the Future and the Yachats Trails Committee as well as to learn more about the history and culture of First Nation people in the Yachats area.

Lincoln City The Yachats-based Coastal Gems walking group is inviting people to join them for a Lincoln City beach walk on Tuesday, June 4. Walkers can either meet at the Yachats Commons at 9 am to carpool, or meet at Cozy Cove Inn at 515 NW Inlet Avenue in Lincoln City at 10:30 am. This walk is 10 kilometers and is rated a 1C, essentially flat, but on sandy beaches. The trail is not appropriate for wheelchairs or strollers. For those who want a shorter walk there is a 5-kilometer option. Pets are welcome, provided they are on a 6-foot leash. On Saturday, June 22, the Gems will host a special walk, the Whoahink-Cleawox event at Honeyman State Park in Florence. Start times will be from 8 am to 1 pm, with walkers off the course by 4 pm. Registration will take place at the Woahink Picnic Shelter inside Honeyman State Park. On Wednesday, June 5, the club will hold its monthly club meeting at Outta Gas Pizza at 1685 Hwy 101 N. in Yachats. There will be a leg-stretcher walk at 5 pm, with the dinner meeting to follow at 6 pm. For more information, call Gene and Linda Williamson in Seal Rock at 541-563-6721, Maryann Brown in Waldport at 541-961-4279 or Jean White in Florence at 541-997-8577, or go to www.yachatscoastalgems.org.

Dance and theatre, Roald into one

From Witches to Willie Wonka, the works of Roald Dahl are known for their ability to cross generational boundaries and delight audiences of all ages. And the PaciďŹ c Dance Ensemble’s Dahl-inspired tale “Jane and the Giant Peachâ€? appears to be no exception, with director Nancy Mittleman’s mother, Ellen, celebrating her 92nd birthday by attending the show’s opening weekend. “PDE’s version of this classic story of a young girl’s dreams of adventure is sure to delight children and adults alike,â€? Mittleman said “In fact, this production is a birthday present for my mom, who has a fantastic imagination and always encouraged me to follow my dreams.â€? People looking for a gift of their own still have one weekend left to take in the show, with performances scheduled for Thursday, May 30, Friday, May 31, and Sunday, June 2. Mittleman’s adaptation features many of the same characters found in Dahl’s original 1961 novel. The cast includes Zephyr KreisStokes as the Centipede, Abigail Taylor as Jane, Audrey Young as Cricket, Lexi French as the GlowKhloella Brateng and Mary Eastman worm and Julia Sleeper as the Spider. Guest narrators Khloella Brateng and Mary Eastman have conjured a variety of voices to help bring each of the wild and crazy characters to life. Eastman, an actress, dancer, director and teacher in the area since 1980, is an original member of the PaciďŹ c Dance Ensemble. “I have always loved the joining of the two mediums dance and theatre,â€? she said, “and Nancy’s shows really allow us to explore all those values.â€? “Mary is a fabulous actress,â€? Brateng said. “Having her whimsical energy to work o is perfect for a piece like ‘Jane and the Giant Peach’ as Jane embarks on her journey to go beyond the mundane in search of adventure.â€? “Jane and the Giant Peachâ€? will take to the stage at the Newport Performing Arts Center, at 7 pm on Thursday, May 30, and Friday, May 31, with the run coming to a close with a 2 pm matinee on Sunday, June 2. Tickets are $12 for adults and $10 for seniors or students. For more information and tickets, call 541265-ARTS.

Lincoln City’s respect for the olive oil importation industry has shone through in dramatic style, with local cinemagoers choosing “The Godfatherâ€? as their favorite movie of all time.

their top three all-time favorite ďŹ lms. Bijou co-owner Betsy Altomare said the results were very close, with “Casablanca,â€? “Gone With The Windâ€? and “The Wizard of Ozâ€? all clipping at Marlon Brando’s heels. Thanks to the theater’s recent upgrade, Brando and company will be shown crisp and clear in a digital edition of the movie. The show will start at 8 pm, with doors opening at 7 pm to allow time for attendees to enjoy a silent auction, rae prizes, a wine bar operated by Karen Richards of Nelscott Wine Shop and hors d’oeuvres from Beach Town Deli. All proceeds from the silent auction will go to Relay for Life. Celebrity impersonators including Marilyn Monroe, Darth Vader and Dorothy from The Wizard of Oz will be on hand to greet guests at the door. Altomare, who together with her husband, Keith, has owned the Bijou for 17 years, said guests should feel free to dress in 1930s attire to mark the anniversary of the theater, which opened in 1937. Guest of honor Samantha Escalante will certainly be arriving in style, having won the theater’s rae for a limousine ride from Coastal Luxury Limousine. Tickets for the bash are $20 and on sale now at the theater, 1624 Hwy. 101, Lincoln City.

Say aloha to quilting

Hawaiian appliqué expert Nancy Lee Chong will present a program titled “First, Make It Fun!” at the Oregon Coastal Quilters Guild’s Thursday, June 13, meeting in Newport. Chong learned to make Hawaiian quilts from Margaret Luika Kamaka in Kailua, Oahu, Hawaii in 1978-81. She began teaching in 1982 after moving to the Seattle area and now makes traditional and art quilts. Her pieced and appliquéd quilts have appeared in magazines and quilt books. She now lives in Gold Beach. “There is no right or wrong way to make a quilt, as long as you are having fun,” she said. In 1991, Chong and her sister, Janice Lee Baehr, formed Pacific Rim Quilt Company to sell their Hawai-

ian quilt patterns and handdyed fabric. Together, they produced three distinct lines of appliqué quilt patterns: Hawaiian quilts; two-fabric appliqué quilts; and quilt borders and table runners. They have also produced two instructional videos and a book/DVD set, “Design Your

Personal Hawaiian Quilt.” In addition to presenting at the guild’s June 13 meeting, Chong will lead a two-day workshop on Hawaiian appliqué on Friday, June 14, and Saturday, June 15, for which spaces are still available. Cost for the class, including a choice of Hawaiian quilt patterns, is $92 for non-guild members. To sign up and receive a supply list, call Liz Ritchie at 541-563-4178 or Marylynn Kleemann, 541-563-8740. The meeting and workshop will take place in the Fellowship Hall of Newport’s Atonement Lutheran Church, 2315 N Coast Hwy. The meeting will start at 6:30 pm, preceded by a “table walk” at 6 pm.

Middle East meets West (Coast)

Oregon author Aria Minu-Sepehr will present “Iran: Modern and Medieval” at the Newport Public Library on Sunday, June 2, giving a perspective that differs from that shown in the nightly news headlines. “Any future involving Iran is now considered to be volatile.” Minu-Sepehr said. “Will Iran seek nuclear armament? Will sanctions deter Iran’s rogue bent, or will they further radicalize the nation? Forgotten in this din is the very real possibility that the unity we accept as Iran is a mirage.” Minu-Sepehr argues that Iran is torn — a nation at once modern and medieval. Without understanding this divide, he says, the West continues to peg Iran as this or that, feeding a foreign policy that rests on half-truths and assumptions. Minu-Sepehr had a privileged childhood as the son of a major general in the Imperial Iranian Air Force. Following the fall of Shah of Iran

in 1979, his family sought refuge in the United States. The hostage crisis, a year later, would prove that the edicts of the Iranian Revolution could impact the global community and destroy the goodwill of one people for another. Minu-Sepehr has lectured on Iranian culture and US foreign policy and created and directed the Forum for Middle East Awareness at Susquehanna University, where he taught world and Middle Eastern literature. He is the author of “We Heard the Heavens Then: A Memoir of Iran”— a Publisher’s Weekly top ten memoir of 2012 and an Oregon Book Award Finalist — and has been anthologized in “That Mad Game: Growing Up in a Warzone.” He teaches writing at WoodSprings Institute and is the copy editor of Judicature. The presentation will take place at 2 pm in the library, 35 NW Nye Street, Newport. Go to www.newportlibrary.org or call 541-265-2153.

A view to treasure Even without buried gold, it’s easy to dig NeahKah-Nie Mountain

F

Story & photos by Patrick Alexander Oregon Coast TODAY

ew things in this world quicken the pulse and widen the eye quite like the idea of buried treasure. Such is the lure of goldstuffed chests that a simple treasure map drawn by the 12-year-old stepson of Scottish author Robert Louis Stevenson inspired the writer to create the definitive buccaneering tale “Treasure Island” — starting the task “on a chill September morning by the cheek of a brisk fire.” And the Oregon Coast, with its rain and mist and wave-ravaged rocks, is the perfect place for stories of buried doubloons and lost fortunes to take root and flourish. The tale that brought more treasure hunters than any other to the coast is that of NeahKah-Nie Mountain near Manzanita, and the loot supposedly buried there by survivors of a 17th-century Spanish trading galleon that sank at Nehalem Bay. Gary Albright, director of the Tillamook

If you go To reach the trailhead, turn east off of Highway 101 at the brown hiker sign between mileposts 41 and 42, just north of Manzanita. Continue 0.4 miles on the gravel road to the trailhead on the left. Armchair hikers can continue northward on Highway 101 and park up at one of the many viewpoints clinging to cliff edge between mileposts 41 and 40.

County Pioneer Museum, said archaeologists have used aerial triangulation to locate the wreck of the galleon — thought to be either the Santo Christo de Burgos, lost in 1693, or the San Francisco Xavier, lost in 1705. More accessible evidence can be found in the museum itself and occasionally on local beaches, in the form of large chunks of beeswax embossed with dates and manufacturers’ marks pointing to its origins in the Far East. Albright said beeswax was one of the four cargoes that Spanish traders would bring back from Asia to their South American colonies, alongside porcelain, silk and spices. Throughout the years, discoveries of beeswax, shards of Chinese pottery and — the prize find — a silver oil burner, all fueled rumors that there was gold hidden somewhere on Neah-Kah-Nie Mountain. Snippets of Native American oral history woven through the tale add an element of the macabre; that the wrecked sailors murdered a slave and buried him with the treasure to keep local Indians away.

Albright said such stories are good fodder for the campfire but not much else. “There’s no evidence of them bringing back any gold,” he said. “The truth of the matter was that the Spanish took gold to the Philippines, they didn’t bring it back.” He said research has proved that the pottery found in the area is 17th-century Chinese, consistent with a ship returning to the Americas from a trading mission rather than setting out. “It’s not the scholarly works that hold most of the attention,” he said. “It’s the idea that bazillions of dollars of gold is waiting to be found on Neah-Kah-Nie Mountain.” Albright said the treasure hunting reached its height in the 1930s during the Great Depression, when mining camps sprung up on the mountainside, with some diggers losing their lives to cave-ins. “It really got out of hand for a long period of time,” he said, adding that some people still dig on the mountain, despite its status as a state park and statewide laws prohibiting treasure hunting.

Albright said the museum sees its fair share of treasure hunters, a group he described as almost exclusively male and recognizable by a “glazed look in their eyes.” With the exception of the glazed-eye brigade, few people seriously believe there is a fortune in gold buried on Neah-Kah-Nie Mountain. However, local historian Gary Gitizen says the mountain might be home to a more modest find — a lead box containing a couple of coins — that could support his theory that Nehalem Bay was the first landing spot of English explorer Sir Francis Drake in 1579. “That would be the treasure,” he said, adding that history contains examples of explorers burying coins to prove that they had visited an area. Gitizen, whose research is available at www. fortnehalem.net, said such a find would tie in with the numerous carved rocks dotted across the mountain, which he says are evidence that Drake’s men surveyed the area during their visit. He said the mountain would have been ideal for a line-of-sight survey, having been burned clear of foliage by local Indians who used it as a site to grow fireweed. While Gitizen continues to advocate for his theory that Drake landed in Oregon rather than California, he agrees the idea that shipwrecked Spanish sailors stashed gold on the mountain is far-fetched. “First of all, they were probably all dead,” he said, adding that the five-month ocean voyage from Asia to the Americas left 17th-century

TREASURE from Page 12 mariners at the risk of life-threatening scurvy. “If anyone was alive,” he said, “they are not going to say, ‘Let’s bring treasure.’ They are going to say, ‘Let’s get ourselves saved.’” Back at the museum, Albright remains unconvinced by Gitizen’s survey theory, saying he suspects the carved rocks might be fakes created to drum up interest in oceanfront lots among naïve Portland buyers. “There was a lot of that going on,” he said, “selling lots that were underwater, over the cliff, that didn’t exist.” Regardless of whether its slopes were once one walked by treasure-laden castaways or one of England’s most famed buccaneers, Neah-Kah-Nie Mountain boasts some million-dollar views of golden sunsets and the sparkling, silver Pacific. A trail starting just off Highway 101

Cape Falcon

north of Manzanita gives the option of a 3-mile out and back hike to the summit or a 5-mile, one-way trek that continues down the north side of the mountain and onward to Oswald West State Park. For those who can arrange a shuttle, the longer hike is well worth the effort, featuring some of the trail’s most outstanding views. The ascent from Highway 101 is

heavily forested, enclosing the walker in a shroud of fuzzy green branches, enlivened by the occasional white trillium flower or pink blossom. Glimpses of the ocean are few and far between but wonderful when they arrive. Hiking higher and higher toward the 1,600-foot summit, it’s clear that someone would have to be crazy to attempt the climb while dragging a

chest of treasure. The steep series of switchbacks levels out somewhat as the trail crosses a dirt road that leads to a radio transmitter, a sign that the summit is near. As the trail reaches its highest point, it emerges from the forest, revealing fantastic views stretching south along the coast. Backtrack just a few feet to find a turnoff to the right, which leads to the top of the rocky peak behind the trail. The view from the top is worth a cautious clamber over the rocks. For the shuttling hiker, the descent on the mountain’s north side leads back into dark forest and steep switchbacks. As the trail nears the highway, ocean views return, with Cape Falcon jutting out dramatically to the north. After carefully crossing Highway 101, walkers can take a short and very worthwhile detour to see the stunning rock formations and churning waves of Devils Cauldron before continuing

Artists go big with mediums Art created from soap and crayons will be on display alongside more traditional works at a two-week spotlight show featuring the artwork of Jill Keck and Lila Passarelli at the Yaquina Art Association Gallery in Newport. Keck, owner of Calise Soapworks & Such in Lincoln City, said she has chosen to display works in multiple mediums because choosing just one is as hard as trying to chose a favorite color. “I’ll have a little photography, some acrylics, watercolor and yes, soap,” she said. “Everything will be based on something near and dear to me.” Keck, who moved to the coast in 2010, said she has been interested in art for as along as she can remember and used to come home from preschool and follow along to drawing shows on PBS. “For me, art is an expression of emotion,” she said. ”I have two little girls and I want to pass on my love for creating.” Lila Passarelli has been a member of the YAA since 1977. She began her lessons with Bill Runyan in the pen and ink class, added the oil painting a few months later and, after a couple of years, joined the watercolor class that was taught by Harry Niemela, As if all those mediums were not enough, Passarelli also does encaustic painting. But, instead of using beeswax, she melts Crayola crayons to create her works. “This is the fun part”, she said.

A show to wax on about

Encaustic artist Kat Cunningham will take center stage at the next Coastal Oregon Visual Artist Showcase, which runs from June 7 through June 29 at the Newport Visual Arts Center. Cunningham’s exhibit, “Pacific Passions,” examines the colors, textures and forms of the many places she has lived on the Pacific Ocean. The showcase is organized by the Oregon Coast Council for the Arts, the regional arts council for the coast of Oregon, An opening reception from 5 to 7 pm on Friday, June 7, will give attendees the chance to meet Cunningham and talk about her work. Cunningham has had a varied career and lived in many places but, “2 Turtles” since 2007, has made her home in Florence. “Now influenced by the Oregon sea life and coastal beauty, I bloomed aesthetically,” she said. “I found my message, medium and passion all in one. My present work is encaustic and my message is still the same — human connection, consciousness through nature. Encaustic has everything I have known as an artist. I can paint, draw, sculpt, use mixed media approaches, work in graphic design and incorporate collage.” Throughout her career, Cunningham’s art has reflected her environ-

Jill Keck with daughters Elise and Camille

Passarelli is specially fond of animals as subjects, although the Oregon lighthouses, seascapes, landscapes, and an occasional flower painting can be found in her studio. The spotlight show will run from 10 am to 5 pm daily from June 1 to 14, at 789 NW Beach Drive in the Nye Beach Turnaround.

ment, with time in Maui giving her a deeper connection to sea life and the plant world, while a stint in Scottsdale, Arizona, brought an understanding of Native American culture “Each place I have moved I gathered the colors, textures, living patterns and environmental disconnection of nature to make my statement,” she said. In the ‘70s, she lived in southern California, owned graphic design studios and started the first fiber arts magazine, Fibernews, In the ‘80s, Cunningham spent seven years in Europe, an experience she said brought finesse to her work. “I honed my drawing skills further,” she said. “Living closer to nature and seeing how Europeans treat their environment fueled my nature passion to a new level.” A video about Cunningham will accompany her exhibit and will then become part of the Coastal Oregon Visual Artists Video Archive. The Newport Visual Arts Center is located at 777 NW Beach Drive on the beach in the historic Nye Beach area of Newport. The gallery is open Tuesday through Saturday from noon to 4 pm and by appointment. For more information or to schedule a viewing outside of regular hours, call Sally Houck at 541-265-6569.

Have a flutter on the derby With these prizes, the $10 entry fee is a snip

Forget Kentucky; serious derby fans are saddling up for the 9th annual Nehalem Bay Crab Derby, the only crabbing event on the Oregon Coast that counts a vasectomy and a mammogram among its many prizes. A top cash prize of $1,000 is also up for grabs in the Saturday, June 1, event, which is hosted by Jetty Fishery and Kelly’s Brighton Marina in Rockaway Beach and benefits The Rinehart Clinic in Wheeler and the Wildlife Center of the North Coast in Astoria. The event begins with each marina releasing 26 specially tagged crabs into the bay. Contestants then have from 9 am to 5 pm to try and reel in one of the 52 precious crustaceans, with a successful catch meaning anything from a cash prize to a serious snip. The prize vasectomy, donated by Dr. Harry Rinehart of The Rinehart Clinic, is a longstanding feature of the event and has, in recent years, been joined by a “booby” prize — a mammogram and well-woman exam donated by the clinic’s Tillamook Breast Health Coalition. “The vasectomy has always gotten some attention and chuckles and over the years we have had several people ‘collect’ their prize,” event organizer Laura Swanson said, adding: “We couldn’t discriminate and needed to bring attention to women’s health needs, so the booby prize was added.” Besides money and medical procedures, the event also features hundreds of other prizes donated by local businesses, including sporting goods, fishing equipment, gift certificates and local artwork. Raffles and prize giveaways throughout the day will add to the festival atmosphere, with vendors and informational booths set up at both marinas. This year, special activities include face painting and children’s crafts as well as a clam and oyster walk.

After all the crabbing is done, the party continues at Kelly’s Brighton Marina, with live music from local band The Exiles starting at 6 pm. The derby coincides with Free Fishing Weekend, when no license for crabbing, clamming or fishing is required. Crab derby participants pay a $10 entry fee to take part in

Bob Milne: a performer of note

If, upon hearing the term “National Treasure,” your first mental image is of stern-faced Nicolas Cage running about in secret passages underneath Washington DC, then modern culture has done you wrong. Help erase memories of Cage’s 2004 stinker by treating yourself to a true national treasure — Bob Milne, a pianist born with an uncanny ability to hear, repeat and reinterpret music. Milne’s classification as a national treasure comes from no less an authority than musical history specialists at the Library of Congress, who filmed and documented him for three days in 2004. But there’s no need to take their word for it. You can decide for yourself when Milne returns to the Lincoln City Cultural Center on Saturday, June 1 as part of the First Saturday Concert Series. Milne’s perception of music is unusual, to say the least. He considers either looking at music or practicing to be “cheating.” “I knew how to play a piano long before I ever started,” he said. “Just push down the notes you hear and the instrument will play itself. Can’t everyone do this?” A French horn player in high school, he went to the prestigious Eastman School of Music at the age of 17, and then became assistant first horn in the Rochester Philharmonic at age 19. After symphony concerts the students all went and hung out in local places. When the piano player didn’t show up at a singa-long saloon one night, Milne filled in. They hired him on the spot. He continued playing the horn until age 21, then became a full time piano player in the Detroit area, playing seven nights a week for 25 years. Playing in concert halls now since 1991, Milne plays worldwide every year and has appeared in festivals around the world, including the Scott Joplin Ragtime Festival, the Montreal Jazz Festival, the Eau Claire Ragtime Festival, Sacramento Ragtime Festive, plus many others. He also serves as a “Musical Ambassador” for the US Department of State. He has also performed in this capacity for members of the Swiss Parliament at the US Embassy in Berne.

Bob Milne

These days, he continues to tour and logs an average of 250 performances a year. At houses large and small, Milne has gained a reputation for easygoing, modest presentations as well as incredible piano playing. “If I have been given any ability at all,” he said, “it is my duty to honor it by trying to improve that ability every time I

On piano, he’s at the top of the Liszt

The fifth season of the Oregon Coast Chamber Music Society will come to a close on Saturday, June 1, with internationally acclaimed pianist Dr. Alexander Tutunov performing selections by Bach, Beethoven, Liszt, Prokofiev and Debussy in an ocean-view home in Depoe Bay. Tutunov is in constant demand in concert halls around the globe. He has performed as a soloist with orchestras on radio and television and is frequently asked to serve as an adjudicator for piano com-

petitions. Tutunov’s extensive repertoire includes major sonatas, concertos, rhapsodies and symphonies by at least 21 well-known classical composers. The History Channel documentary “Russia: Land of Tsars” featured his recording of the Abeliovich Piano Concerto as part of its Emmy award-winning soundtrack. Tutunov now lives with his family in Ashland, but he began his successful musical studies and career in Russia where he is recognized as one of the most outstand-

Central Coast Chorale is a-bell to impress The Central Coast Chorale will be going like the clappers on Saturday, June 1, when they present their annual handbell concert at Newport’s First Presbyterian Church. Both the advanced and beginning handbell choirs, directed by Dr. Mary Lee Scoville and Tiffany Jefferson, will perform music from around the world, an American spiritual medley, as well as movie themes and tunes from a selection of Broadway musicals. The choirs will use multiple ringing techniques, playing on four octaves of Schumelrich handbells and two octaves of hand chimes. The performance will start at 7 pm at the church, 227 NE 12th Street. Admission is by donation.

Surfers at Agate Beach around 1915

Hats off to beach fashion Befuddled by modern beachwear? Can’t tell your board shorts from your Bermudas, or your rash shirt from your tankini? Step back in time to an era when beach fashions were more clearly defined, men were men, women were women and absolutely everyone wore a hat — always. “Beachin’ It 1890s-1920s: Newport’s Summer People” at the Burrows House Museum of the Lincoln County Historical Society, gives a picture of Newport’s early days as a beach destination, with exhibits including bathing suits from the period, promotional materials, hats and umbrellas as well as photographs, postcards. “This exhibit takes the visitor back to a lively time in history and notably in Newport. I think the bathing suits and photographs are

of particular interest,” Steve Wyatt, executive director of the Society, said. “One of the photographs, surfers on Agate Beach, is new to the collection and slightly different from one commonly seen.” The exhibit focuses on a time when Bay Beach, Nye Beach, and Agate Beach were the hot spots for summer events including surfing, a ladies’ race, clam bakes, sun bathing, hot sea baths, and numerous other activities. The Lincoln County Historical Society is a nonprofit organization dedicated to the preservation and interpretation of the history of Lincoln County. The museum, located at 545 SW 9th St. in Newport, is open 11 am to 4 pm Tuesday through Saturday. Entrance to the museum and exhibit is by donation.

As the Oregon Coast’s farmers market season gets into full swing, with eight established markets operating from Manzanita to Yachats, organizers in Siletz are hoping to add their town to the list of places where residents can get to know the people who grow their vegetables, pick their fruit and bake their bread. The Siletz Valley Farmers Market is projected to open in mid-June and to run from 2 to 6 pm on Tuesdays at the corner of Gaither Street and Logsden Road. Organizers are looking for local vendors interested in selling produce, plants, flowers, meat, fish, cheese, specialty foods, arts and crafts. There is also space available for performing artists. Vendor and entertainer applications are available by contacting Tina Retasket at 541-444-2144 or via e-mail at siletzvalleyfarmersmarket@hotmail.com

Have a harmonious summer break

The Neighbors for Kids after school program is inviting kids to start summer on a high note by taking music lessons from three talented local musicians at its Kids Zone facility in Depoe Bay. Students attending the after school and summer sessions at Kids Zone get the chance to learn from veteran piano instructor Diane Robertson; percussionist and Island Joy drummer Melody Jackson; and Tony Kaltenberg, who specializes in various instruments related to the guitar family. Program director Toby Winn said the aim is to help ďŹ ll the gap left by a decreasing emphasis on music in public schools. “Neighbors For Kids believes strongly in making music lessons accessible to more children in the region,â€? he said. “So during the Kids Zone after school and summer programs students are engaged in music lessons, starting with the building blocks of reading music. Students learn how to read music measures, and then they are given the opportunity to learn how to play an instrument.â€? The program, supported by the Siletz Tribal Charitable Contribution Fund and Trust Management Services, LLC, allows students to choose from acoustic, electric and bass guitars,

An act of ‘merci’

F

Café C’est La Vie will have your taste buds shouting ‘thank you!’ By Patrick Alexander Oregon Coast TODAY

or the owners of Café C’est La Vie, details are important. From the ingredients in their signature crepes to the art on the walls and the coffee grounds in their espresso machine, Penelope Cole and Tony Perez know that everything has to be just so for their vision of a European-style café to work. And, this summer, that passion for detail will extend to the level of a grain of sugar. The reason? Cole’s quest for perfection on the café’s newest offering, Gaufres de Liege, a style of waffle perfected in the French-speaking southern region of Belgium. Far from the doughy offerings at some US waffle houses, the Liege waffle boasts a light, airy texture with a crisp, golden brown exterior. Both the color and the waffle’s rich flavor are the results of the special “pearl sugar” that goes into the batter. This large-granule sugar retains its crystal form throughout the mixing process, allowing it to caramelize when the waffle is cooked. Cole hopes to be serving up the new waffles by mid-June, in time for the café’s peak period, when its Bella Beach neighborhood is filled with families enjoying a break at the coast. She said the new dish, together with her existing range of crepes, pastries and coffee, will make the café the ideal place for a long, leisurely breakfast — at any time of day. “If you want to have Belgian waffles and local jam or a fresh crepe with local berries and Nutella at 2 pm, we’re your place” she said. “I want the laissez-faire atmosphere of our cafe to be the guide to what people want to eat, not the time of day.” And there is a very good chance that the first waffle out of Cole’s new waffle iron will act as a birthday cake of sorts to celebrate the café’s first year in business on June 1. A native of Roseburg, Cole finished high school in Lincoln City and went to college in Portland. She spent the next few years in San Diego and Washington DC, interspersed with travels to Europe, notably France and Greece. While her love of European cuisine and culture sent her wandering, love also brought

her back to the coast, when she met and fell for Perez, owner of a local landscaping company as well as a committed surfer with salt water in his veins. Together with Perez’s mother, local real estate broker Lisa Morrigan, the couple decided to share their love of cooking and Cole’s wine expertise by setting up Cafe C’est La Vie. Choosing a corner location next door to Morrigan’s office in the pedestrian-friendly beachfront neighborhood of Bella Beach just north of Depoe Bay allowed the couple to set up sidewalk tables that, on a sunny day, conjure images of a lazy afternoon by the banks of the Seine. “Even though it’s not a full-time residential community, it still has that very much neighborhood feel,” Cole said. When the neighborhood quietened down in the winter, the couple started a series of movie nights, offering themed meals such as quail and beef bourguignon to fit with the films on show. The film nights are set to return in November when it gets dark enough to project movies on to the café wall again. The café has also started running Artisan Afternoons on the last Friday of each month, offering people a chance to mingle with local artists against a backdrop of live music, wine specials and great food. The next Artisan Afternoon will take place from 5 to 8 pm on Friday, May 31, featuring the impressionist-style paintings of Rosemary and Fred Achelpohl along with mosaics from Joanne Daschel and handmade “Charlie Scarves” by Merrily Burger. After a year of building the café’s reputation by hard work and innovation, Cole and Perez saw their labors bear fruit this Mother’s Day, when the place was packed from opening to close by families treating mom to a decadent treat. “It showed that somehow we transformed this space into a place that people want to bring their loved ones on special days and special times,” Cole said. A sign above the café’s front door sums up the couple’s attitude in a quote from French cooking legend Julia Child: “If you are afraid of butter, use cream.” “We use heavy cream — with no fear,” Cole

said, adding: “I think we have an appreciation of the decadence of food. And the French do that well.” Despite its European inspirations, Café C’est La Vie makes use of plenty of local ingredients sourced from suppliers including Trillium Natural foods, Oceana Natural Foods, Barking Dog Farms and Rockfish Bakery. Cole indulges her culinary creativity by making daily soups from scratch, while also offering a steady menu of items including sandwiches, pastries and crepes as well as seasonal

specialties such as a local heirloom tomato salad with fresh mozzarella and basil. The crepes, both sweet and savory, are among the café’s bestsellers, with fresh ingredients enlivened by herbs from Blake’s Coastal Nursery as well as the garden of Cole’s father near Corvallis. The café also serves as a small specialty market, selling jam by the jar, Caffé Umbria coffee by the bag and, of course, wine by the bottle. On the subject of wine, this summer will see the café staying open until 8 pm on Fridays and Saturdays to offer small plates paired with select French vintages. Cole said she aims to offer wine lovers something a little different for the same price per glass as wines from the Valley or California. “I have Oregon wines that I love,” she said. “But I also think that Burgundy deserves its place on my shelf and everyone should have a glass of French pinot.” Cole said Chef Justin Wills at nearby Restaurant Beck showed her that coastal living does not have to mean giving up the culinary perks of the city. “I’ve found that there is an amazing demand for ‘indulgent’ items from our coastal community,” she said, “and I plan to keep them coming!” “The café extends a warm thank you and ‘merci!’ to everyone for the support,” she added, “and is looking forward to another delicious year!” Café C’est La Vie is located at 8 Bella Beach Drive, off Hwy. 101 in Lincoln Beach. The Café is open from 9 am to 6 pm Wednesday through Monday. For details, call 619-674-8816, find them on Facebook or visit the café’s website at http://thecafecestlavie.com.
