A crime with a clear locomotive

The Lincoln County Historical Society will present a documentary on “the last great train robbery” on Saturday, April 13, at the Carriage House museum in Newport. The showing will be accompanied by comments from the filmmaker, Tom Olsen Jr., who also will present artifacts he uncovered while producing the film. The program is free and open to the public. “The Crime of the d’Autremont Brothers” is a one-hour documentary detailing Ray, Roy and Hugh d’Autremont’s 1923 hold up of a Southern Pacific Railroad train in tunnel 13 just outside of Ashland. Four trainmen were murdered. The brothers were found nearly four years later and sentenced to life in prison. The story is told by their lawyer, Noreen McGraw, who fought for their parole, and a documentary filmmaker, Jerry Schneider, who made a Roy, Hugh and Ray 1973 documentary for the 50th anniversary of the d’Autremont crime. Tom Olsen, Jr., has been making documentaries for 10 years. His other films include “Killingsworth” and “Politics of Sand.” He is a graduate of Chapman University’s MFA film program. Olsen teaches film at PCC and Warner Pacific University and serves as the Multimedia Production Specialist at the University of Western States. “The Crime of the d’Autremont Brothers” premiered at the 39th Northwest Filmmakers Festival and was a recipient of a 2012 Oregon Film Award. The screening will take place at 2 pm at the Carriage House museum, 545 SW 9th Street, Newport. For more information, call 541-265-7509.

marine science day

Hang out at the Hatfield Marine science center pulls back the curtain and welcomes public in for a chat by Nancy Steinberg for the TODAY

What do marine scientists do all day? Do they count whales? Build Rube Goldberg-type contraptions out of twisted mazes of glassware? Plunge to the bottom of the ocean in tiny research submarines? Sift through endless columns of data to discover something new about the watery parts of our planet? Yes, sometimes, to all of the above. If you want to learn more about a day in the life of a marine scientist at one of the premiere marine research facilities in the country, Marine Science Day, April 13, at Oregon State University’s Hatfield Marine Science Center in Newport, is the perfect way to satisfy your curiosity. At this annual free event, Hatfield throws open its doors to the public, offering interactive displays, tours, public talks and more. Maryann Bozza, program manager at the center, explained the genesis of the event: “Marine Science Day evolved out of SeaFest, but with more of an emphasis on the science that is conducted here every day,” she said. “We discovered last year that attendees were really hungry for the science stories we tell.” Scientists who work for Oregon State, NOAA, Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife and other agencies will be on hand to describe their research, answer questions and run handson activities throughout the day. Two research themes will be highlighted, both of which are the topic of collaborative research at HMSC: wave energy and bycatch. Bycatch is the unfortunate side effect of some kinds of fishing, when unwanted species of fish, invertebrates, marine mammals and even birds, are caught in fishing gear along with the targeted animals. Not only can bycatch be bad news for marine populations, it can also be trouble for fishermen, as some bycatch is very strictly regulated. Visitors at Marine Science Day will get to see bycatch exclusion devices developed by local researchers and their partners, including managers, fishermen and gear-makers. For example, researchers working with the groundfish fishery are testing a “flexible sorting grid excluder” which keeps Pacific halibut out of trawl nets intended for other groundfish species. This device uses two vertical panels that sort fish by size as they progress toward the cod end of the net (the small end where fish are retained). Fish larger than the grid openings — such as the halibut — will be shunted out of the net via an exit ramp, while smaller fish will remain in the net. “Fishermen are really engaged in this research because they are concerned about getting shut down if the weight of the halibut bycatch reaches a certain threshold,” NOAA scientist Waldo Wakefield said. “The fishermen are not only engaged with the scientists, but they interact with each other and with the net-makers.” Other bycatch highlights will include videos showing how bycatch exclusion gear works, a display on reducing bycatch of bird species in longline fisheries and information about ProjectCROOS (Collaborative Research on Oregon Ocean Salmon), a research project in which scientists and salmon fishermen collect genetic information that helps distinguish between target species and bycatch species. “The bycatch issue affects Sarah Henkel

all of us who benefit from the seafood industry,” said Bozza, “and the solutions can range from very clever and elegant designs to those that use complex science and engineering.” “It’s the type of problem that can best be solved by having partners work together,” Bozza added. “Such collaborative research is what makes HMSC unique — it’s what we do best.” Wave energy research at HMSC will also be highlighted at the open house, in particular the work of the Northwest National Marine Renewable Energy Center to facilitate testing of wave energy devices in the ocean off Newport and evaluate their environmental impacts. In addition, visitors will be able to check out the new wave energy exhibit in the HMSC Visitor Center and hear a 3 pm keynote talk by OSU Assistant Professor Sarah Henkel on research evaluating the environmental effects of wave energy installations. With funding from the federal Bureau of Ocean Energy Management, Henkel is studying the potential effects of wave energy devices on benthic (bottom-dwelling) communities on the Pacific Northwest coast. “Wave energy installations will mean concrete and steel going in the water where there was previously just sand,” Henkel said. “New organisms might want to colonize those structures, which could in turn attract fish and other organisms that will prey on the colonizers, but also on the existing benthic communities.” “Second,” she added, “placement of the anchors for these devices could cause a scouring effect, similar to how a hollow forms around your feet when you stand in the surf at the beach.” Finer sand might be likely to be scoured away, leaving coarser material behind, changing the habitat characteristics of the bottom sediments near the devices. Henkel will talk about her work with the wave energy device that was tested off of Yaquina Head last summer, as well as her plans to work with the newly-designated Pacific Marine Energy Center, the first grid-connected wave energy test site in the U.S., slated for installation off of South Beach in Newport. She will also describe research taking place at Hatfield into the “acoustic environment,” or the ambient underwater noise, near where wave energy devices will be tested. The list of Marine Science Day events is long, including an octopus-feeding demonstration at 1 pm and ongoing tours of HMSC’s seawater facilities and animal husbandry lab. The event runs from 10 am to 4 pm. More information can be found at http://hmsc.oregonstate.edu/marinescienceday.

Tide Tables | The TODAY’s Dining Guide Q

.WWL NZWU I ]VQY]M XWQV\ WN ^QM_ Story & photos by Gretchen Ammerman for the TODAY

In early 2011, as Steve Wilson was considering the future evolution of his restaurant, he was faced with two options; continue to grow the size of the business or continue to grow the quality and the reputation. “About two years, it felt like we were coming to a crossroads,” Wilson said. “If we were to continue to grow our revenue, it seemed obvious that some shortcuts would be necessary. Since I’ve never been a fan of cutting corners, the decision really come down to quantity versus quality. In our case, down-sizing was the best decision I ever made. Where once we hoped for 70-120 dinner guests each evening, 40 guests is now ideal for us. Looking back, it now seems like too many people and too much pandemonium.” Bigger isn’t always better, and Wilson discovered that often times, less can be more. “I once had visions of The Bay House becoming a big hustling and bustling place like a McCormick & Schmick’s,” he added, “ but that isn’t us, and that’s not this area. Things have improved quite a bit since I realized that.” Fitting the area doesn’t stop at a more modest customer count; The Bay House also uses an increasing number of locally-grown products, including executive chef Kevin Ryan, who was promoted to the position last year. “There’s a trend of restaurants growing their own food and trying to buy from local farmers,” Wilson said. “We work with Barking Dog Farms, Corvus Landing Farms and Walker Farms, but how much more local can you get than the having a chef who was raised here?” A 2006 graduate of Taft High School, Ryan first started working at The Bay House when he was still in high school, and then proved himself as the sous chef under a few different executive chefs. “It’s really gratifying to see someone basically start their career, work through the tough times, and develop their talent,” Wilson said. “Even though a year ago he was only 25, when former chef Sean McCart departed after two and a half years at the helm, I didn’t think that his youth was a very good reason not to give him the job.” It’s been equally gratifying for Ryan, who now gets to design the menus at the restaurant that gave him his start. “It’s been a lot of fun,” he said. “Also sometimes it’s a bit overwhelming, but it’s always fun.” The Bay House menu changes regularly, sometimes several times a week based on what’s in season and what’s coming off the farm. “The duck is now served with caramelized onion puree, spatzle, braising greens and orange marmalade,” he said. “The beef is served with cauliflower gratin, roasted red pepper coulis and Grand Mere fingerling potatoes.” The carefully designed menu poses just one problem — how to choose just one entrée for your meal. To address that dilemma, The Bay House provides a literal feast for the senses; the highly popular tasting menu, featuring five courses for $57 topped with an amuse-bouche (a single bite, appetizer selected by the chef ). The tasting menu features selections from Ryan’s regular menu, including smaller portions of the duck and beef plates, and sea scallop, which is served with orange-fennel salad, herbed black futzu squash risotto and beurre blanc. The meal finishes with a dessert trio of a mini cheesecake, chocolate cream trifle and fennel sorbet. “The tasting menu has been one of the most successful things we we’ve done,” Wilson said. “People love it.” In 2011, to entice more locals to the restaurant and give diners

a more relaxed option, The Bay House started the Neighbors to Neighbors program, a $25 three-course, locally-sourced meal to be served during the off-season on Wednesdays, Thursdays and Sundays. Though it was originally intended to run for one year. “It went so well we decided to make it a year-round, every day feature in the lounge,” said Wilson. When asked by potential diners to describe The Bay House, Wilson tends to turn the question around a bit to answer. “I usually say it’s what we don’t have that defines us,” he said. “We don’t have a deep fat fryer, we don’t have a microwave oven and we don’t use frozen food. We want to provide a fine dining experience, but with local flavor and warmth. That’s why we built the lounge, to have something comfortable and a little more casual where you wouldn’t need reservations, but you could still get great food, great service and great drinks. We also have an amazing view; an ocean view is great, but it’s pretty much the same thing except for a few boats and the occasional whale tail. The bay is constantly changing with the tides, we have a nesting pair of bald eagles out there right now and a few days ago we had four deer feeding right outside the window. The people who sited the restaurant in 1937 really knew what they were doing.” Following the recent acquisition of the property, Wilson’s perspective on the size of the business isn’t the only thing that has evolved. “More than anything, our focus is on the quality of our food.” Despite the current craze for TV celebrity-type chefs, there are several other spectacularly important elements necessary for a restaurant to be truly world-class. “The beautiful location, the comfort of our facility, the linen, the flowers and the taper candles are unique and wonderful,” according to Wilson, “but it’s the attentive, professional service and the general attitude of hospitality that set The Bay House apart. Making our guests happy and making life-long memories for them is the name of the game. While I was at Salishan in the early 1980s, I learned that it takes great people to take great care of great people; and our staff is the single greatest point of pride for me. They love what they do and they’re darn good at it. It’s taken me seven years to put this team together and they are the best I’ve worked with in my 40 years in this industry.” The Bay House Restaurant and the Bayside Lounge, 5911 SW Highway 101 in Lincoln City, are open Wednesday through Sunday at 5 pm, with dinner starting at 5:30 pm. To make a reservation or for more information, call 541-996-3222.

No rest in this Quest Patrick Alexander Oregon Coast TODAY

As Lincoln City’s Community Days celebration approaches, organizers are encouraging locals and visitors alike to explore one of the town’s best-kept secrets by accepting the challenge posed by the Taft Pioneer Cemetery Quest. Designed by 4th and 5th graders from Taft Elementary School, the quest is one of 26 contained in the most recent edition of the Oregon Coast Quests guidebook published by Oregon State University. People who successfully collect all the clues will be led to a Quest Box containing the soughtafter stamp that searchers can display to prove their victory. Cait Goodwin, who co-ordinates the Oregon Coast’s questing program, said the challenges are designed to get people outside and exploring their communities. Goodwin said the cemetery’s location, tucked away atop a hill above the Inn at Spanish Head, makes it easy for locals and visitors to miss. The quest, she said, would help people of all ages learn something new about the site. “Most adults probably don’t know that Taft’s first postmaster is buried up there,� she said. Goodwin said creating the quest helped students get a more realistic idea of what a cemetery is. Before their first visit to the site, she asked the group to draw pictures of what they thought of when they heard the word. “A lot of them drew pictures of fog and vampires and tombstones and Michael Jackson of all things,� she said. After their many visits, she asked the kids to draw another picture and, lo and behold, their perceptions were transformed; with many choosing to emphasize the trees found at the site or its sweeping view of the Pacific Ocean. As well as learning about their physical surroundings, the children got to meet and talk with members of the Taft Pioneer Cemetery Association to find out about what the cemetery means from a cultural perspective. Goodwin said the quest also provides opportunities for kids to learn math by calculating the ages at which the cemetery inhabitants died as well as history by studying the grave markers of veterans buried there. People taking the quest must follow clues on a map to gather letters that, when combined, form a word or a phrase that leads to a box containing a stamp unique to that quest as well as a logbook for searchers to record their triumph. “There’s no doubloons at the end or treasures,� Goodwin said, “but the treasure is really the walk and spending time with your friends and family.� She said the activity fits with OSU’s emphasis on self-guided learning — where people make

their own decisions about what they want to learn, when and with whom. Goodwin will kick off the cemetery quest challenge with a presentation entitled “Quest Chat� at 6 pm on Wednesday, April 18. Maps for the cemetery quest will be available at the presentation as well as under the covered area of the Eagles Lodge at Hwy. 101 and SW 32nd street from 8 am to 4 pm any day from April 18-27. All questers are encouraged to bring a can of food for the Lincoln City Food Pantry to drop into the collection container at the pickup site. Cemetery hours are from 8 am to 7:30 pm. Completed quests maps should be turned in to the Lincoln City Cultural Center by Noon on Saturday, April 27. For people who get bitten by the quest bug, Lincoln City offers more opportunities to collect stamps, whether it’s the Downtown Oceanlake Quest that elementersy school students put together in partnership with the North Lincoln County Historical Museum, or the Stormwater Quest, which follows the path of the rain water that lands on the Taft Elementary School as it makes its way into the natural watershed. People who collect 10 stamps become eligible for an embroidered Oregon Coast patch. Quest books, featuring all 26 challenges are available for $10 from the cultural center, Bobs Beach Books, Kenny’s IGA and the Lincoln City Community Center. For more details, free sample quests and updates go to http://hmsc.oregonstate.edu/visitor/ oregon-coast-quests.

A glass act When looking at a stained glass window, most people have one thought that lingers after the initial awe fades — how long did it take them to make that thing? One woman intimately familiar with the patience it takes to create glass art will be showing her work in the three-week Artisan Spotlight show running through April 26 at the Yaquina Art Association Gallery in Newport. Paula Cline-Jones of Seal Rock began working with glass after a friend invited her to attend a beginners’ stained glass class more than 30 years ago and she has never looked back. In her travels, she found her preference for bright colors reflected in the windows of cathedrals of Seville and Cordoba. She prefers working with cold glass, as opposed to warm glass. “It is slow and teaches patience,� she said, adding that this patience has blessed her life. Cline-Jones has found that art heals, allowing her to become completely absorbed and absolutely engaged. To her, it is a form of meditation, whether she is in the design stage, selecting and gathering glass for the project or scoring and shaping to fine precision one tiny piece of glass, she is in bliss. In her spotlight show, Cline-Jones will be displaying glass art in a few different forms including lamps featuring one popular design reproduction called “Waterlily.� The show, which started April 6, will run until Friday, April 26, available to view daily from 11 am to 4 pm at the Yaquina Art Association Gallery 789 NW Beach Drive in Newport.

OPPOSITE: A Louis Comfort Tiffany 20� lamp design called “Waterlily� using selections of glass from traditional makers including Youghiogheny, Uroboros, Kokomo and Wissmach along with a bit of Spectrum.

Stick your beak in at the Bird Show Spring is here and a large collection of bird art has migrated to the Lincoln City Cultural Center, where it is perching in The Chessman Gallery, all puffed up and ready to receive visitors. The Bird Show, which runs from April 12 to May 7, will see the gallery filled with amazing wood-burned creations by Carol Pulvermacher, beautifully detailed illustrations by Ram Papish and also charming bird houses handmade by Lee Hildreth. The show will open with an artists’ reception from 5 to 7 pm on Friday March 12, with appetizers, chocolate eggs, wine and a give-away drawing of items for bird lovers. Carol Pulvermacher taught herself to wood-burn as a teenager in 1975, finding the process a natural fit. She draws the design, burns the likeness of all types of animals into a variety of types of wood and then uses oil pencil to enhance each piece with some color. In the late ’90s, she unofficially started Lazy Dog Designs, creating pet portraits and memorials. Later her love of animals led her to the larger world of creating wildlife pieces. For Pulvermacher, inspiration is everywhere: in her backyard, watching a nature special on OPB, hiking, camping, and traveling. There are so many species of animals and wood that she is always finding new ways to express herself. She says that people tend to connect with the animals and that selling a piece is just a bonus after that. Pulvermacher ‘s home and studio are in West Linn and she is represented by three galleries: including The Spiral Gallery Artists’ Cooperative in Estacada, The Artists’ Co-op Gallery in Lincoln City and Love Art! Gallery in Sellwood. Ram Papish, a professional bird enthusiast, combines his education in fine art with his experiences working as a field biologist to create artistic and accurate wildlife images. For more than 20 field seasons, Papish studied birds and other wildlife in Panama, Jamaica, Puerto Rico, Costa Rica, Florida, Texas and remote islands in Alaska. In 2012 he retired from the “bio bum� lifestyle to concentrate on his first love: wildlife art. He has also authored and illustrated two children’s books: The Little Fox and The Little Seal, published by University of Alaska Press. His illustrations appear in many books and publications, including the Handbook of Oregon Birds. Papish, who lives in Toledo, has work featured in the Kelp Forest Gallery in Newport and North by Northwest Gallery in Cannon Beach. Lee Hildreth is a Lincoln City artist who displays her work in the

gift shop at the Lincoln City Cultural Center. Always a creative person, in high school she designed and sewed her own clothes and as an adult she has designed decks, landscaping and dabbled in watercolors. In the past, she and her husband have refurbished, decorated and sold furniture with coastal themes such as light houses and nautical scenes. Hildreth and her husband are now making birdhouses using plywood, shingles, paint, bark, moss and stones. Each piece contains special little details that make it one of a kind. They are also built to be outside in the harsh coastal environment, with real roofing shingles, bronze boat nails, brass eyes and screws for hanging and ceramic coated screws to connect the birdhouse to the base. This show coincides with the 10th annual Birding and Blues Festival in Pacific City, which brings nature seminars, guided field trips and great blues bands to the Pacific City area from April 12 to 14. For more information about the festival visit www. birdingandblues.com or turn to page 17. The Bird Art show will run through May 7 and is open to view from 10 am to 4 pm, Thursday through Monday at the cultural center, 540 NE Hwy. 101, Lincoln City. For more information, call 541994-9994, head to lincolncityculturalcenter.org, or become a friend on Facebook.

The air will turn thick with salt in Yachats on April 13 as a collection of Oregon Coast writers gather at the Overleaf Lodge Event Center for a celebration of fiction, poetry, memoir and song. Now in its seventh year, Off the Page is an encouraging celebration of creative expression.

Khloella Brateng of South Beach is a writer, actress, musician and artist. She is frequently seen on stage at the Newport Performing Arts Center, most recently in “The Producers,â€? “The Full Montyâ€? and “Companyâ€? and provides voiceover narration for Pacific Dance Ensemble’s annual spring production.

Her poetry and short stories have been published in literary journals and newspapers, and she is working on her memoir, “Tales of a Sea Sick Galley Slave.â€? Her work at sea began on the decks of west coast salmon and tuna trollers and moved to the galleys of large trawlers, merchant ships and research vessels. Her work took her from Alaska to Antarctica. Hallie Price of Newport graduated from New England College in 2011 with a Bachelor’s of Art in Creative Writing. She received the CreHallie Price ative Arts Award for her class and won the 2011 New England College Creative Writing Award. Her short stories have been published in online literary journals “The Bright Light CafĂŠâ€? and “The Autumn Sound Review.â€? Ruth Harrison of Waldport is a retired professor of medieval literature.

formance. Gamelan is also used in the ceremonies of the Catholic Church in Indonesia. Certain pieces are designated for starting and ending performances or ceremonies. When a “leaving” piece such as Udan Mas is begun, the audience will know that the event is nearly finished and will begin to leave. Performance can last all evening and through the night. People are free to move about, eat and socialize during the shows. Today gamelan ensembles may be found throughout the US and all over the world. In addition to the music and puppetry, the audience will be treated to a display of traditional Balinese dancing by Bonnie Simoa, lead dance faculty at Lane Community College.

Sure to get music fans Russian to Newport For the final concert of its 2012-2013 season, The Newport Symphony Orchestra will present a program of Russian musical treasures on Saturday, April 13, featuring works by Tchaikovsky, Shostakovich and Prokofiev. The program will open with “Festive Overture,” a piece demonstrating the compositional virtuosity of Dmitri Shostakovich. Sergei Prokofiev’s “Lieutenant Kije Suite,” written for a 1933 Russian film of the same name, will be the second work in the concert. The final work of the evening will be Piotr Tchaikovsky’s “Symphony No. 4,” a symbolic musical exploration of the emotional torment the composer endured throughout his life. “The vivid, public grandeur of the Russian tradition in music is the focus of the evening as we bring the season Naia to an exciting close,” NSO Music Director Adam Flatt said. “From the pageantry of Shostakovich to Prokofiev’s blithe film score and the passion and candor of Tchaikovsky’s masterpiece, we traverse the full spectrum.” The concert will take place at Newport High School, 322 NE Eads Street. The entertainment will begin with a pre-concert talk at 6:45 pm and the music will begin at 7:30 pm. Tickets to the concert are $34; $20 for general seating in the stands; and $10 for students. Call the Newport Performing Arts Center box office at 541-265-2787 for tickets. In preparation for the 2013-2014 Season, NSO season ticket holders will have the opportunity to reserve seating at the Newport Performing Arts Center for 2013-2014. In addition to the regular Saturday evening concerts the upcoming NSO season will be adding Sunday matinees.

Two duos, two Portlands, one Celtic gig Celtic musicians from two Portlands will converge on The Hoffman Center in Manzanita on Thursday, April 18, for a joint concert featuring flute, harp and violin music. The concert will see guitarist Kathryn Claire and flautist Hanz Araki from Portland, Ore., take to the stage alongside Naia, a Celtic flute and harp duo from Portland, Maine. Flautist Nicole Rabata and harpist Danielle Langord of Naia have appeared throughout the US and on international stages in various ensembles and as soloists. Recent highlights include the International Flute Festival of Lund, Sweden; the Magic Flute Festival in Stockholm; the Hebridean Celtic Festival in Scotland; the Longy School of Music; the WOMAD Festival in England; Amherst College; the New Hampshire Highland Games; the Festival Interceltique du L’Orient in Brittany, France; and the Hammersmith Irish Center in London. Both have appeared on NPR’s show “Thistle and Shamrock.” Flautist and singer Araki performs a blend of traditional Scottish, Irish and English songs and instrumentals with fierce musicianship and an original approach. His journey began with traditional Japanese music and led to traditional Celtic, pop and rock. Channeling six generations of flautists, a cross-cultural tapestry is woven that never grows stale. Claire is a singer with the ability to move seamlessly across genres, whose deep love and respect for traditional music has long been a driving influence and those roots can be heard in her own original music. The April 18 gig will take place at 7:30 pm at The Hoffman Center, 594 Laneda Avenue, Manzanita, with tickets priced at $10.

in concert Annie Averre

Jazz, up close and personal

A series of intimate jazz concerts in homes around Newport will begin on Sunday, April 14, with a performance at the Ona Beach Bed & Breakfast in South Beach. The 2013 INHOUSE JAZZ Series will offer concerts featuring groups and individual artists highlighting each musician’s unique style and compositions. Concert organizer Annie Averre will sing a few select songs with each, introducing the diverse musicians to coastal jazz enthusiasts. Averre said the aim of the series is to give audiences the chance to enjoy an intimate, informal concert, free from the noise and distractions of a restaurant or bar. The April 14 gig features a group of musicians who have all worked with each other in various settings, but never as a group — Portland guitarist Christopher Woitach, tenor saxophonist Lee Wuthenow and bassist Ron Green. Woitach plays a wide range of jazz styles, from Dixieland to free jazz and ragtime to bebop and has played with performers including Bernadette Peters, Rich Little and Mel Brown. Wuthenow, originally from Seattle and now one of Portland’s best-known horn players has a melodic tone, which adds a sultry touch to every tune he plays. Green, on upright bass, will be the most familiar to local audiences, having lived for many years in Seal Rock. Now residing in Albany, he still performs on the coast regularly with the popular gypsy jazz group Hot Club de Jour. The series will present concerts on the second Sunday of every month from April to September, always from 2:30 to 5:30 pm. There is no charge for these sessions, but a donation of $15 to $20 is suggested to help cover concert costs. Averre said any funds collected beyond expenses will be donated in support of local arts and education. The audience is also encouraged to bring beverages and potluck treats. Anyone interested in attending should RSVP prior to each concert by calling 360-606-7136.

From the Emerald Isle to the gem of the coast Renowned Irish singer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist Gerry O’Beirne’s U.S. tour will include a stop in Yachats, with an intimate gig at a home on the Yachats River Road scheduled for Saturday, April 13. Born in Ennis, County Clare, along Ireland’s music-rich west coast, O’Beirne grew up in Ireland and in Ghana in West Africa, and has since lived in England, California and Mexico. Playing a range of instruments including guitar, tiple, ukulele and slide guitar, O’Beirne composes songs that blend the passion found in traditional music with the freshness of contemporary song. “The instrumentals are out of this world,” The Sunday Times said. “A self taught master of the 6 and 12 string guitar, the playing of O’Beirne is superlative and subtle beyond words.” The April 13 gig will start at 7 pm at 1841 Yachats River Road, with attendance limited to 30 people. Tickets are priced at $17 and the event is a potluck and BYOB. People who do not bring a dish to share can pay an extra $10 and the Drift Inn will provide a dish for them. To reserve tickets or order food, call 541-547-4477.

Parting is such sweet sorrow The Oregon Coast Chapter of Sweet Adelines will be perform a send off show on Thursday, April 18, to prepare for their upcoming appearance at the Sweet Adelines International Region 24 competition and convention in Boise Idaho. For the past the chorus has been working to perfect their two competition songs for several months, teaming up with several women from Sea Breeze Harmony Chorus in Coos Bay who will join them on the competition stage on April 27. In addition, High Tide NW and Pure Vocal, two quartets from within the chorus will be competing this year in the quartet competition. Members of Pure Vocal are all from Coos Bay and are excited to compete for the first time on the regional stage. High Tide NW will compete for their third season. The contest can be seen via webcast at sairegion24.com The April 18 send-off show, a formal dress rehearsal for the big day, will start at 7:30 pm at the American Legion Hall Post 116, 424 West Olive Street in Newport. Admission is free and refreshments will be served.

The world comes to Neskowin

One of the problems for a group with members from opposite sides of the world is that, no matter where you are touring, someone is always a long, long way from home. The upside, of course is that it must be very difficult to get bored of each other while riding on the tour bus. That certainly appears to be true of the Stradivari Quartet, whose members are from Switzerland, South Korea, and China and who return to Neskowin for the second time on Sunday, April 14 to appear at the Neskowin Chamber Music Series. The musical story-telling style of the ensemble is based on the belief that everyone and everything has a story to tell. Member of the quartet think that all the anecdotes about composers, works, instruments and players are brought into one connected whole. The varied backgrounds of the performers help create a special bridge to the audience. They all play Stradivaris instruments. Quartet founder Maja Weber began playing the cello at the age of four, when the instrument was bigger than she was. She played in a family quartet and in the Ars Amata Zurich. She then formed the Amas Quartet with her sister. Xiaomong Wang, violin, started playing at the age of four. While still in school, he continued his musical development at the Central Conservatory in Beijing. He has been the concertmaster of the UBS Verbier Orchestra and the UBS Chamber Orchestra and, in 2008, became the second concertmaster of the Zurich Opera Orchestra. Soyoung Yoon had her first violin lesson at the age of five. She studied in Seoul before transferring to master classes in Zurich and Cologne. She has won prizes at the Queen Elizabeth Competition, Tchaikovsky Competition, Yehudi Menuhin Competition, among others. Lech Antonio Uszynski, viola, was born to a family of Polish musicians. He grew up in Switzerland and began learning violin from his father at the age of six. He has been playing the viola since he was 13 and won prizes for both violin and viola at the Swiss Youth Music Competition. In 2001, he founded the Trio Elegiaque with his brother and they went on to win the Gaetano Zimetti International Chamber Music Competition. The April 14 concert will begin at 3 pm at Camp Winema, three miles north of Neskowin just off Highway 101. Tickets, priced at $25, are available at the door or in advance by calling 503-965-6499. For more information, check the website www.neskowinchambermusic.org or call 503-965-6499.

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

Finding myself at the ocean I

n the spring of 1997, not long after my 33rd birthday, I awakened in my Portland loft to the reality that I craved a total revolution of my mind, body and spirit. Truly, I was lost as a human being and unable to envision a path to fulfilling any of my dreams. On a whim, I accepted a teaching job at a small rural school on the Oregon Coast, needing to believe something transformative might happen to me. I honestly felt this was my last shot at doing something important with my life. Something did happen after heading west. I met the beach, we fell in love, and it has since become the greatest creative, spiritual and sensual force in my life. But my transformation only manifested because I live in Oregon and long ago the state decided to forge an exceptional path by protecting its ocean beaches, its “great birthright� as former Oregon Governor Oswald West defined it, from prudery and privatization. That exceptional path also guaranteed public access to the beach — by law. A couple years after relocating to the coast, I started going to the beach with my three big dogs, in relentless fashion, at all hours, in all weather, using all senses, usually clothed. Strange, wonderful, things unfolded at the beach, and I heard the “old sound of the ocean� as the poet Robinson Jeffers called it. In hearing the “old� I began hearing something new: a passion for living, caring and creating that I never knew existed within me. I also began writing about these very things. By the way, I’ve never paid a cent to use the great birthright, a tradition I hope never changes. If it does, Oregon is surely doomed and we already know the culprits — plutocrats who never visit the beach; they only want to own it. I intended to stay one year on the Oregon Coast. Now, I’m enjoying my 16th year in residence and estimate that I’ve rambled the great birthright close to 10,000 times and written a million words about my experiences. I’ve run into coyotes, sea lions, deer, sages, prophets, madmen, magic forts, marijuana dealers, eagles, herons, pelicans, whales, Ken Kesey’s ghost, 50 shades of stratus gray, holy fires, mermaids and a Sea God’s sculptures. I’ve inhaled salty fog and hurdled over rotting kelp. I let a millions gallons of rain erode the procrastinator I was in Portland. I saw everything through the keyhole of a limpet. I learned the definition of beauty and art and met the hardest of hardcore Oregonians walking in slanted sleet. I found myself and a literary voice. Oregon’s beaches can help you find yourself too. It all depends on what you seek: privacy,

creativity, recreation, rain, solace, escape, confession, unpretentious family time, God, god, gods, contemplation, inspiration, transfiguration, transmogrification, an agenda-free zone, forgiveness, redemption, simplicity, passion, connection, maybe even a little fun hardly ever in the sun. Or perhaps you seek the unknown and want something unexpected to unfold in real time. Oregon’s beaches offer that as well, especially in the winter. Really, anything is possible because guaranteed access makes it possible and access guarantees something tactile can happen. Something wonderful always results when something tactile happens at the Matt Love lives in South Beach and is the beach. But for anything author/editor of nine books about Oregon, to happen, you must walk available through his web site at upon the beach. Looking nestuccaspitpress.com or independent bookat it from a moving vehicle stores. He can be reached at lovematt100@ or the comfort of a living yahoo.com. room pales in comparison. In fact, it’s not even worth comparing.
