Pedestrian fatality on Blackberry Avenue
A pedestrian originally from Missouri and now residing in Forks was fatally injured when she was hit by a car in Forks at about 11:20 a.m. Saturday. The woman, whose name has yet to be released because her next-of-kin have not all been notified, was badly injured and died at Forks Community Hospital, according to Sgt. Mike Rowley of the Forks Police Department. The woman was hit while in a crosswalk at the intersection of Blackberry Avenue and East Division Street, according to the preliminary investigation, Rowley said, adding that the collision was at low speed. “As far as we’re aware, the driver was not impaired,” he said. Investigating officers said the driver of the auto was an elderly woman who was alone in the car. The driver was not hurt, Rowley said. Forks Police have not identified the driver. Clallam County Sheriff’s Office and State Highway Patrol also are assisting in the accident investigation. Forks Police Administrator Rick Bart said, “Washington Sate Patrol is working with us on this and we are awaiting their reports.” “Forks Police Officer Todd Garcia was first on scene, while Law enforcement make check at the junction of Blackberry Ave and E Division Street where the accident occurred Saturday off-duty, and gave aid to the victim that was trapped under the vehicle,” Bart added. morning.

The Quileute Tribe sees the purchase of the 110 Business Park as the next step in the natural evolution of its partnership and common interest in expanding its economic development opportunities. The tribe is developing a 10-year business plan for the 110 Business Park investment. It is committed to implementing a plan that will create more jobs for our people and the surrounding community. Vice chairman Naomi Jacobson said, “I am very enthusiastic about the tribe’s investment in the business park and the opportunities it has for Quileute’s economic expansion. We have so many ideas and I look forward to narrowing those down and focusing on the longterm strategic plans that unfold as we move forward in the process. It’s a great project to be a part of and we will do our best to develop businesses that will be profitable and provide employment opportunities.” Chairman Chas Woodruff added, “We know there’s a lot of speculation and curiosity about what the tribe plans to do with the 110 Business Park. We are exploring a number of options right now. We can’t make any definite comments as to what we are going to do because that would be a bit premature. We are considering a number of possibilities. This is an important investment for our future and our tribal members were at the forefront of the consideration to move forward with the purchase.”

Look to locally owned milling
Dear Editor, An idea for the those affected by the recent mill closures in Forks and Beaver. We have been relying on corporate business to operate mills in our area for way too many years. When corporations see their profits slipping they do not have a vested interest in keeping mills operating and folks employed. Our locally owned and operated forest products businesses do not think that way, they manage to get through hard times without closures and huge layoffs. Do we really want to see another foreign owner opera-

tor buy up the mills and treat us like dirt? I am putting forth the idea of a local co-operative be formed to buy and operate the closed mills. There are economic development funds/ loans exclusively available for this purpose. Or another option is many local forest business owners forming a LLC pool resources and invest in an expansion. If we wait, it is inevitable that
some outside investor will do what the community can do better. Who knows better than those who work daily harvesting, transporting and milling our timber resources on how to profitably run the timber industry? Local ownership, local control and dollars staying here instead of being sent to far away pockets. Ken Lambert Forks
Thank You The family of Betty Soderlind would like to thank the community of Forks for all their kind words and support during the recent loss of this amazing woman. Betty was our family member but she considered the community of Forks her family, too. We all will miss her.

New hospital CEO settling in For the Forks Community Hospital’s new CEO David Selman, Forks was exactly what he was looking for. Originally from Louisville, Ky., and having his last position in Ventura, Calif., Forks’ rural setting is perfect. “I have a passion for rural health care,” Selman said. Selman had been coming to the Pacific Northwest over the years for meetings and has a good friend living in Port Townsend, so when he saw the job posting for the position in Forks he was very interested. Selman has been on the job since
November and finds the Forks Hospital staff “fantastic” adding that the Forks Hospital is very blessed. “The employees are dedicated to the patients and in a small facility like Forks more attention is paid to the patient,” he said. As far as the health of the Forks Hospital, Bogachiel Clinic and West End Outreach Services, Selman finds things to be in pretty good shape. “I don’t plan on any major changes, other than maybe bringing in even more specialists so our local residents don’t have to travel for good health care. I have found a dedicated team from the hospital board to
the employees.” Since arriving, Selman has visited the Clallam Bay Clinic, Clallam Bay prison, Neah Bay and LaPush and plans on a trip to the Olympic Corrections Center. “I just want to see how to help those facilities in any way.” As far as the weather goes, Selman said it hasn’t been too bad so far. A former marathon runner, he looks forward to doing some running and maybe joining the local Athletic Club. Selman has not gone fishing yet but that activity is on his to do list along with some hiking.
Mick Dodge sighting
Danica and Hank Christiansen were in the Forks area vacationing when they stopped by the Visitor Center for some local info. They told VC staff that they were huge fans of Mick Dodge. Little did they know that Mick actually was upstairs in Forks Chamber of Commerce Director Lissy Andros’ office. They were thrilled to meet him in person and the three of them chatted for about 20 minutes. The VC reports that the Forks area has had such a great year with visitors and attributes this to the beautiful area we live in, with the rain forest and beaches just moments away, the weather (yes even the rain), the continued love and dedication of the Twilight fans and now Mick Dodge fans. They often welcome back repeat visitors that have fallen in love with the area, always wanting to do more and see more.

Forks Fact of Life By Christy Rasmussen-Ford My 6-year-old was barely inside the house after school when I said to her, “Heard you were running in the hall today.” She gasped and her eyes widened. You would have thought that I told her Old MacDonald really had a slaughterhouse or something. She was completely flummoxed. Just so everyone knows, flummoxed is a real word even though it sounds like one I would make up. “How did you know that I was running in the hall?” She asked me with a flummoxed look in her eyes. I calmly replied, “I know everything.” Never once did I look up from my dishes because it seemed like something I should add to the mysteriousness and drama-ness of my all-knowingness. Plus, I was afraid that I would start laughing if I looked at her. Even I can’t keep a straight face while claiming to know everything Clearly I do not know everything. Maybe Old MacDonald had a slaughterhouse or maybe he raised organic, free-range, right-wing, left-handed animals. I have no idea. But I have every intention of riding this “Mom knows everything” wave until it washes up on Rialto Beach. If that means leaving out the fact that one of the school employees sent me a text message, that’s what I’ll do. The truth is that I just know everyone in Forks. My children will not be able to do anything without someone telling me. It’s a Forks fact of life. When I was a kid, I hated this. I couldn’t do anything without my gram finding out. If I wanted to smoke a cigarette when I was 17 (hypothetically speaking of course), I had to drive 20 miles out on a dirt road (the A-Road … or so I’ve heard). This made smoking quite the chore (or so I would assume). Now that I am a parent, I love it. It means that I don’t need to spend nearly as much time stalking my kids. Seventy-eight percent of the residents in Forks are stalking my children for me. The other 22 percent are their friends, who I stalk, when I can, to repay the favor. It’s like a mi casa es su casa kind of thing. For those of you who are not fluent in Spanish, mi casa es su casa translates to “I will watch for signs of tobacco use when you’re not around and you will watch when I’m not around.” Of course, my oldest is only in the first grade so tobacco use isn’t really a concern right now. We’re mainly worried about running in the halls and such. For this reason, I greatly appreciate my spies at the elementary school. In the next couple of years though, I’m going to sign up mothers who want to patrol the A-Road for smokers (if that’s where kids go … I don’t really know). Then, we should have all of our bases covered. For questions, comments or to alert me about things my kids are doing, e-mail me at Christyrasmussen@yahoo.com. LETTERS TO THE EDITOR POLICY

A horse is a horse, except when it’s with elk When you live in the wilderness you just never know what surprises each day may have in store. On S u n d a y morning I took my dogs out for a walk just before 8 a.m. When I got back in the house I noticed I had a message. It was my neighbor Tracy and she wanted me to know that the elk herd was by her house, which is nothing unusual, but with the elk herd was a miniature horse. Now that was unusual. I called her back and her husband Ron verified that yes a miniature horse was hanging with the neighborhood elk herd. I told him I would see what I could do. I went to Facebook to see if anyone had posted anything, seeing nothing, I posted the sighting on the Forks Forum Facebook page and several other places. My husband went to look for himself and about that time the herd began to head for our yard but I saw no mini-horse. When my husband returned he said the horse was now standing alone and had not followed the elk. Remembering the story last year of Chicky the horse that was missing in the woods on the A Road for several weeks and also got to hanging out with elk, I decided I better go get the horse. Armed with a dog leash and apples I tiptoed through the trees and looked to the spot my husband had seen the horse, no mini horse to be seen. Just as I thought maybe it had headed for the the river I turned and the horse was peeking out from behind a big tree, I think it was watching me. In my best horse whisperer voice, which I have never used before, I called to the horse and it came right to me. It was the cutest little horse I have ever seen! Other than being really wet, the horse looked

good. As the horse checked out the apples I slipped the dog leash around it and off we went for my house and my former goat pen. Once the horse was safe in the pen, I went in the house and my husband said, “Oh great, now we have a miniature horse.” Having lived through my guinea pig, rabbit, duck, chicken, sheep and goat phases he is a little over farm animals. I assured him this little horse was well fed and well taken care of and someone had to be looking for this animal. My husband advised calling the police department, I did and Brandon answered. Well, yes indeed someone was missing a little horse and he gave me the phone number and they were at my house in 15 minutes. I found out the horse’s name is Sally B. and she is 30 years old. She was staying at a house not too far away and sometime during the night got out of her pen and hooked up with an elk herd. On Saturday, the day before, Sally B. had been at a fundraiser at the Hungry Bear Café with Sasha Folkner and her organization “For the Joy of It”, a youth program that teaches youth teamwork and leadership skills through working with horses. The horse actually belongs to Joyce Bos, so when Folkner found she was gone she was frantic, she said she could see the hoof prints of the horse in step with the elk and they were
heading for the river. If you would like to meet Sally B. and even have your picture taken with her and Santa, she will be at the Hungry Bear Cafe again from 10 a.m.-2 p.m. Saturday, Dec. 13. The 5x7 photos are by donation and all proceeds go the the Youth Program. Christi Baron, editor

Hallelujah for Habitat volunteers
In this season of thankfulness for sacrifice, and in a common convolution of Woody Allen’s famous 1977 quote, “90 percent of success is just showing up,” Habitat for Humanity of Clallam County would like to send a shout of thanks heavenward for all those who have sacrificed time and energy, funding, materials, planning and support to make one more good, solid house a dawning reality in our community.

To Bill Terrill and Bob Tiemeyer, Adam Alfonso, our AmeriCorps volunteer, and Juan Almazan, who comes to help from his own Habitat house across the street, and to Mark Weaver, who has become a well-spoken advocate for Habitat, who works every day on his house before going to his paying job and who says he’s looking forward to going next door to work on Shay Gooding’s house – thank you!

Both cutters had a situation of possible concern in the days following this wager, though any concern on Bill’s part was far, far less than that of his former opponent. This fellow had made quite a mess of his strip, for each of the giant spruce he had felled, had either uprooted, broken or completely crushed many smaller trees. Therefore, that cleanup day required lots of work with a poor day’s tally. In addition, that fellow’s employment was terminated shortly thereafter. As for Bill, he was soon (nearly secretly) visited by the bullbuck at work. Catching a glimpse of his supervisor watching him from a distance, Bill calmly continued workCONTINUED on page 15

Part 13: The Stupidest Person on Earth, Can … By Chiggers Stokes Special to the Forks Forum
For those of you who have followed my sojourn from Brazil to a rundown farmhouse in Maryland, thank you for your audience. For that rare reader that wants to see a missed installment, or stranger still, the ENTIRE story, visit www.chiggers stokes.com/Chiggers__Writing.html I asked Christi Baron for the privilege of writing 12 articles of how I struggled to a degree of independence from public utilities. I promised Christi, that after this preamble, I would begin imparting advice on the How To … of energy and water systems. For 40 years, I have been on a trail of tears that makes me somewhat of an authority on what can go wrong. I want to impart this sage wisdom and go on bragging about how I have tamed water and sunshine to light my house and compose these words. But before I close the chapter on my East Coast attempts at modern pioneering, I want to impress upon you that ANYONE can achieve a level of independence if they have to or if they keep trying. Let me illustrate my point. Imagine that you are the stupidest person on earth. Your idea of using old whiskey barrels for a cistern hasn’t been all you had hoped. A nasty, smelly black algae has taken over the system in summer. The smell coming of out of that possessed plumbing physically knocks down a couple of your guests, but you persist with the idea that you can kill algae with chlorine. Eventually, due to the system freezing over, a truce is reached in
We’ve Got You Covered
every international symbol of hazard including a skull and crossbones! The junk boss points to a pile of empty 20-gallon barrels. You immediately fall in love with them. “May I ask what you intend to use these barrels for?” asks the junk man. He laughs when you say, “Home water system.” You’re so dumb you ignore your bride who reads the Hazmat warning on the drums. “I swear to you, if you hook those drums into our plumbing, not only will I not drink of it, it will touch no part of my body.” You take this statement as negotiable and proceed to search for a place in the attic to receive the new cistern. Now you’re not the dumbest person on earth. But that is me installing the barrels over the pantry between the kitchen and bathroom. That’s my bride, removing her toothbrush and every other shred of toiletry from the bathroom. It’s me on the ladder filling four toxic waste barrels with
80 gallons of spring water. In the next few seconds catastrophe would intervene to save me and my household from myself. Please join me, the next time Christi Baron chooses to fill white space with my writing. I have promised Christi, and, now you my readers, to offer a practical nugget, along with the telling of these horror stories. I leave you with zero point four three. 0.43 multiplied by the height of a column of water expressed in feet yields pressure expressed as PSI or pounds per square inch. If I tell you that my whiskey barrel system was 10 feet above my spigot, then you know that the PSI at the tap with the valve closed is no more than 4.3 PSI and considerably less with the valve open. Low pressure is a one of many downsides of a roof collecting, low-gravity cistern.

the chemical warfare between yourself and this demonic algal life form. You are the dumbest person on earth, so it never entered your mind that freezing weather would interfere with outdoor plumbing! A light goes off in your dumb head that you will have to establish a reservoir/cistern system indoors like the pressure tanks in most homes. You head off to a junkyard in hopes of finding some suitable containers and somehow not aware that human civilization has been containerizing water for quite some time. Someone has told you that plastic doesn’t remember hazardous chemical stored therein. When you ask the junkyard boss about plastic lined containers, you’re told that the only such containers held highly egregious chemicals. Being the dumbest person in the world, you say, “Let’s see ‘em.” The barrels are on the other side of the dump, inside another locked yard with placards of many color and

ing in his usual manner. Back at camp that day, the bullbuck approached Bill and with a grin on his face, said to him, “You can sure lay down the timber, can’t you?” Before this story is completely laid to rest, here is a timber-cutting tip from Bill. When felling huge Douglas-fir — limbless for sometimes 100 feet — it is sometimes wise to put a nearby smaller tree in the larger tree’s flight path. As an example, Bill, while working near Forks, did just that. Targeting a 4-foot diameter hemlock some 35 feet away, he laid an 8-foot diameter fir directly into the limbs of that smaller tree and it gently rode to ground level. Such a maneuver is not necessary with a huge spruce because of its large impact cushioning limbs, by the way. The accompanying photo shows something very unique in nature. Though it is not rare for one tree to topple and hang up against another, this scene is one of a kind; personally, I’ve never seen anything quite like this before. Several factors had to be exactly perfect for this to happen. Bill is not a tree topper, so he could not duplicate this. Perhaps, neither Tom Larkin nor Floyd McCoy, two local tree topping experts, could accomplish such a feat, nor would they want to, because of the danger involved. By the way, you can snap your own picture of this scene if you arrive before a windstorm takes it away. These two trees are below the trail overlooking Big Creek about 3 miles from the Irely Lake trailhead. That should be enough clues to get you there. Next time we’re going to be in Forks, not too far from our city center. But we’ll still be outside in possible inclement weather, so bring your rain gear just in case. If you have a stop watch, bring it as well.
