Stabbing prompts felony charges
Ranker endorsed by ‘New DEAL’ leaders
Alleged victim also faces felony assault in unrelated case
Journal staff report
Journal staff report
A San Juan Island man accused of stabbing another man in an altercation over a $100 pickup is slated to stand trial for felony assault in mid-May. On March 27, Victor James Capron Jr., pleaded not guilty in San Juan County Superior Court to one count of first-degree assault with a deadly weapon. He was released under court orders and on $100,000 bail pending trial. If convicted, the 56-year-old lifelong San Juan Island resident would face a mandatory minimum sentence of five years in prison, as required under state law. First-degree assault with a deadly weapon carries maximum penalties of life in prison, a $50,000 fine, or both. He has no history of violent crime. Born and raised on San Juan, Capron was taken into custody Monday, March 23, shortly after 6 p.m., at the end of a long gravel driveway on the Boreen property, which borders the gravel pit and the San Juan Community Home Trust neighborhood near the intersection of Hunt and Grover streets. He was intoxicated, slumped over in the front seat of his vehiSee CHARGES, Page 2

Sailor Nick Wainwright, left, and Steve Roberts, owner and builder of “Microship,” have join forces to enter and hopefully win a 750-mile race to Ketchikan, up the Inside Passage, and collect the race’s $10,000 grand prize.
‘Inside Passage’ or bust
‘Techno-philes’ team up on engine-less race to Alaska By Emily Greenberg Journal Reporter
With its squalls, hypothermia-inducing waters and 20-mile-an-hour rapid-like currents, the inside passage to Alaska is an engine-less sailors’ biggest challenge. The first-ever “Race to Alaska,” brainchild of the Northwest Maritime Marine Center, is a 750-nautical-mile journey that begins June 4, from Port Townsend to Ketchikan, Alaska, with a grand prize of $10,000. The only catch is it must be done on an entirely engine-less vessel, human or sail powered. Local sailor Nick Wainwright, 28, of San Juan Island, is one of the Race to Alaska hopefuls, on a very unique boat. “It wasn’t even a question of should I do this race,” Wainwright said. “I have to. This boat is unlike anything else.”
The boat, named Microship, is an amphibious pedal and sail powered trimaran. No need for an anchor, amphibious means the boat can roll onto land with four wheels that come down and retract like an airplane’s. It has a free-standing mast and uses one simple sail. There’s no traditional tiller or wheel, handles guide the boat through hydraulic steering. When there’s a lull in the wind, she can be pedaled at about three knots. The boat was built and designed by Steve Roberts, technophile and expert tinkerer, after a 17,000-mile jaunt on a home-built, technologically advanced bicycle that now sits in the Computer History Museum in California. Sparing the techno-babble, just one of the bike’s many features was that it allowed Roberts to type emails in binary while pedaling on the road, in the late ‘80s. Microship took nearly a decade to build. A $1 million undertaking, the vessel had over 160 corporate sponsors aiding in its completion. Roberts originally intended to trailer the boat to different See OR BUST, Page 4

There are more than 200 Community land trusts and other permanently affordable homeownership programs across the country. CLTs use one-time public investments to write down the cost of a home so that it is affordable to lowincome homebuyers who are typically shut out of the for-sale market. In exchange for a below market-rate purchase price, the homeowner agrees to sell the home at an equally affordable price to another income eligible homeowner. In this way, these programs leverage one-time public investments to ensure that the homes are affordable in perpetuity.

after the alleged assault, according to authorities. Sources close to the defendant say Capron maintains that he was defending himself during the altercation. The two men were unacquainted when they met. However, in a statement to deputies, Kelsey Boreen, who lives on the property, said King had repeatedly tried to interest Capron in buying the pickup, but that a deal never materialized. They met that afternoon to look over the vehicle and discuss a possible transaction, Boreen said. In his statement, Boreen told deputies that King became apprehensive because of Capron’s condition, offered to drive him home, and asked Boreen for a ride back. Not long after, he said that he saw the Explorer speed down the driveway, then heard someone screaming for help and went outside to find King staggering up the driveway and covered in blood.

Fifty tons hauled away in campaign against creosote Nearly 20,000 tons of toxic material removed via state conservation project Over the past month, restoration crews from the Washington Department of Natural Resources removed more than 50 tons of toxic creosote-treated wood from public and private beaches on Lopez, Orcas and San Juan islands. Friends, which coordinated the removal projects, credits the local residents who reported areas marked by creosote debris and the Puget Sound Conservation Corps, which collected and disposed of the toxic-laden loads, for helping to improve water quality in the island archipelago. Creosote-treated wood was commonly used in marine structures throughout the Salish Sea for more than a century during a period of rapid development and industrial expansion. Like other chemical compounds that were innovations in their time, creosote was broadly used without knowledge of its long-term consequences. It is now known that creosote contains more than 50 human carcinogens and is toxic to marine fish and other wildlife. Much creosote remains in local waters today, washing in with storms and tides and persisting in older structures such as docks and pilings. “Friends of the San Juans is continuing its partnership with the DNR to remove Creosote piles, unnecessary toxic creosote-treated pilings and outdated structures from tidelands in San Juan County at no cost to interested landowners this summer,” Friends Science Director Tina Whitman said. “The goal of the project is to improve water quality and overall ecosystem health for salmon and salmon prey.” In December, 28 creosote-saturated pilings were removed from a defunct dock in Blakely Islands Thatcher Bay and another 26 in-water creosote pilings and approximately 1,200 square feet of pier decking were removed from Lopez Island’s Barlow Bay in December the year before. Friends and DNR are seeking property owners who have in-water, creosote-treated wood, such as unused pilings or
Lions offer free health care screening exams, April 3-4
Beating the high cost of health care doesn’t get any easier than this. The San Juan Island Lion’s Club will sponsor free health screening sessions Friday and Saturday, April 3-4, in conjunction with the annual arrival of its Northwest parent organization’s Health Screening Unit. Hosted by the Marketplace, the 62-foot medically equipped trailer and its team of volunteer health professionals offer 30-minute exams for people of all ages for blood pressure, glaucoma, diabetes, sight and hearing. The mobile health screening trailer will travel to Orcas Island for a similar twoday session of screenings following its stop in Friday Harbor. The local Lion’s Club has sponsored health screening visits by a medically equipped mobile vehicle for more than a decade, but the 62-foot trailer slated for the April 3-4 event is a new trailer pulled by a new Kenworth tractor that was
donated by Red and Beverly Bingham of Washington. An estimated 30,000 patients, mostly children, are expected to attend free health screening sessionsthis because of the availability of the Lion’s Club’s Health Screening Unit.
Funding from the Washington State Salmon Recovery Funding Board enabled Friends to coordinate the creosote removal effort in San Juan County. It’s part of a statewide DNR Creosote Removal Program that to date has collected and disposed of more than 19,823 tons of creosote, 276,000 square feet of overwater structures and 3,972 tons of toxic beach debris at various waterfront locations in the Salish Sea.

To find out if your structure is eligible for this voluntary and free removal program, contact Whitman, 360-378-2319 or DNR’s Chris Robertson, 360-854-2808. Friends and DNR are interested in receiving information about beach sites with large accumulations of drift-creosote materials as well; this material may be eligible for removal through the same DNR-sponsored Puget Sound Corps Program that just completed removals over the past few weeks.

Wallace Edward Botsford: 1938—2015 Wallace Edward Botsford passed away peacefully on March 25, 2015. A beloved husband, father and grandfather, Wally will be remembered as an energetic man who cared greatly for his family, had a quick wit and felt most at home fishing the waters of southeast Alaska. Wally was born on March 9, 1938, to Helen and Wallace Botsford. He and his younger sister Bonnie were raised in Friday Harbor, where his father was a logger and worked at the lime kiln and his mother was a teacher. His family also raised turkeys, dairy cows and sheep on their large San Juan Island property. After graduating from Friday Harbor High School in 1956, Wally attended Western Washington University, where he earned a teaching degree. It was also at Western that Wally met the love of his life, Jane Edgerton, at a school dance. The two married on Nov. 4, 1959, and had three children together, Patricia, Michael and Sandra. Wally taught high school math, woodshop and drawing for almost a dozen years, but his passion always lied in fishing. He began working on commercial salmon fishing boats in southeast Alaska at the young age of 15, and he continued to fish each summer through college and while teaching in Stanwood. He eventually purchased his own boat, a seiner called the Golden North, in 1969, and owned
several more boats over the course of his career as a fiery but successful skipper. He named one of his boats, The Lady Jane, after his wife. Wally retired in 1999 for health reasons, after more than four decades of fishing. He sorely missed being in the wheelhouse, but hardly kept still during his retirement. He could constantly be found doing work and projects at his home in Wallace Edward Botsford Bellingham, where he and Jane moved a dozen years ago. He also began a legacy of fishing in his family—his two daughters both met their husbands on fishing boats and all five of his grandsons would spend time commercial fishing. After his parents’ passing, Wally continued to maintain his family’s property in Friday Harbor, a 20-acre partly wooded swath overlooking the Strait of Juan de Fuca and the Olympic Mountains. He felt a deep connection to the place and even lived there with Jane for a couple years
Agnes May Murray: Nov. 17, 1931—March 6, 2015 Agnes May Murray was born at the lighthouse station in Westport, Wash., on November 17, 1931. She came to San Juan Island at the age of four to live at the Lime Kiln Lighthouse where her father was the lighthouse keeper for many years. Agnes loved growing up at the lighthouse and had many wonderful stories about what life was like in those days. She graduated from Friday Harbor High School in 1950 and married the love of her life, Norman Murray. They had five chil-
dren, Janice Anderson, Sue Maas, Norman Murray, Teri Cooter, and Toni Holmes-but she was "Mom" to many others. She also leaves 13 grandchildren and 9 great grandchildren. She touched many hearts during her life with her loving spirit. Agnes loved going to the beach, watching the waves and collecting shells, rocks and beach glass for her hobbies. She also loved gardening, fishing, clam digging, family get-togethers, and dancing. Agnes passed away on March 6 at her home in

before the two purchased Jane’s grandparents’ former home in Bellingham, which also looks out on the water. Wally is described by those who knew him as a hard worker and a fighter, even as he battled illness toward the end of his life. He spent his final days in Bellingham surrounded by family and loved ones. Wally was preceded in death by his sister Bonnie Barsness. He is survived by his wife, Jane Botsford, and three children, Patricia Botsford Martin (Daniel Martin), Michael Botsford (Robyn Botsford) and Sandra Johns (Steven Johns). He is also survived by his grandchildren, Nicholas and Gabe Martin, Tristan Botsford, and Jess, Rachelle and Justin Johns. A service for Wally will be held at 4 p.m. Saturday, March 28, at Saint James Presbyterian Church in Bellingham.

OPINION Letters to the Editor
McDonald’s will add much to FH
Super kudos to the Town Council for their quick approval of a McDonald’s franchise for that empty storefront on Spring Street. I know this decision was made in secret and was meant to be a surprise for the residents of Friday Harbor, but the cat’s outta the bag. I for one am really excited about selecting items from the “Value Menu” and using Sunshine Alley as the drive thru. Thank you Town Council, and I hope anybody reading this does so on April 1.

Benefits abound; ‘Yes’ on Island Rec
I am writing in support of the upcoming Island Rec levy. I have worked in the San Juan Island School District for close to 25 years and my wife and I raised two incredible children on the island who have taken advantage of many opportunities offered by Island Rec. Our island community needs our Island Rec programs in order to keep our community viable and attractive to young families. Over the last seven years our school district has struggled financially as our student population declines. We try to offer the best programs possible and stretch our budget to include as many opportunities as we

can for our students. In 2009, the San Juan Island School District had to make a decision to either cut core academic programs or cut our schools sports program. We chose to cut the sports program, but thanks to our community and Island Rec we were able to keep both. Since that day I have tried to imagine what our high school would be like without a sports program. When a new student moves into our district sports provide opportunities to create instant friendships. Sports also create a venue for students to develop leadership skills, earn PE credits, develop a strong work ethic and give a student a sense of belonging. Many of our sports teams earn top state academic awards for high cumulative grade point averages. College applications ask questions about community and school involvement, leadership, involvement in activities, and honors and awards. Our sports programs offer opportunities for students to show these qualities through their involvement. Over half our student population is involved in athletics. These students feel a strong connection to school and tend to do better academically. Our Island Rec levy is asking for our community to support our school sports program, after school programs for children of working families, summer programs for children and adults, plus much more. I hope you will help support the Island Rec levy by voting “Yes” in April. GORDY A. WAITE FH High School

Right time to run for hospital board
Are you distressed about our new hospital: 1: because the care offered has turned out to be prohibitively expensive, or; 2: because this hospital, supported in part by our taxes, adheres to the Catholic Bishops’ Ethical and Religious Directives regarding reproductive health and end-of-life care, or; 3: because the Hospital District Board members, who should be responsive to the public on San Juan Island, instead see themselves as apologists for the hospital administration? If so, please consider running for one of the three seats open this year on the hospital district board. LOUISE DUSTRUDE Friday Harbor
Conflict? Record shows otherwise
In his recent letter, “Why can’t Co-op be more like FH?”, March 18, pg. 5, Bill Wertz envisions the worst. His allegations of my having a conflict of interest have no merit. He jumps to an erroneous conclusion that I knew what the future would bring. In 2007, I was concerned about a proliferation of numerous unsightly cellphone towers that might be needed to serve the difficult topography of our islands. It was not until 2012, two years after I left the County Council, that OPALCO even began to consider the expansion of OPALCO’s fiber-optic communications system to include access for joint-use wireless facilities

In solidarity with steadfast determination of Lummi Nation
Parks & Recreation: ties that bind
“We stand with the Lummi Nation in opposition to the Gateway Pacific coal terminal! Warrior Up!” These cries of support were heard in the stirring documentary, “Our Sacred Obligation”. Thank you to Ken Crawbuck for showing this film as part of his Tragedy of the Commons film series on March 21. Thank you also to the San Juan Island Library for hosting this well-attended event. We were fortunate to have Freddie Lane of the Lummi Nation here to present his creation—a film that tells the story of the Lummi and the totem pole they carved to honor the communities living in the path that oil and coal travel, from the mines to export on the Salish Sea. Robin Everett of the Sierra Club was also at the screening and talked about local grassroots opposition helping to stop 3-out-of-the-5 coal terminals proposed for our region. Katie Fleming from Friends of the San Juans talked about the Lummi’s recent request of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers to deny the permit for the proposed coal terminal at Cherry Point, citing its “adverse impacts that cannot be mitigated”. The film movingly recounted the steadfast determination on the part of First Nations to speak up for the protection of clean air and water for everyone, especially for the next generations. Their “sacred obligation” to do so is inspiring. SHAUN HUBBARD San Juan Island www.islandersforsafeshipping.org
Healthy and active, cradle to grave; Vote ‘Yes” on Island Rec levy
On behalf of the 15 trustees of the San Juan Island Prevention Coalition, it is my pleasure to announce our support for the levy request for Island Rec that goes before the voters on April 28, 2015. The mission of San Juan Island Prevention Coalition is to reduce substance abuse among our youth and to create a community culture supporting healthy choices and responsible behaviors in youth and adults. For over 30 years Island Rec has provided drug and alcohol free events, activities and sports for San Juan Island residents. Island Rec provides a lifetime of fun activities. From the Smart Start sports development program for 3-6 year olds to the Active Senior Fitness program for 55-plus adults, any islander can stay active their entire life. It is as easy as walking a trail from American Camp to Friday Harbor, or playing in a co-ed softball league, or skateboarding at the Skate Park, or even going to watch a Friday Harbor High School sporting event, like football or volleyball, because Island Rec also underwrites the funding for all high school sports. Please join the Prevention Coalition in voting “Yes” for the Island Rec Levy Renewal in April. BRAD FINCHER Chairman, SJI Prevention Coalition

Trails, parks, programs and sports, Island Rec levy is money well spent By Bill Cumming
Special to the Journal
W
e all made the decision to live here on San Juan Island for different reasons. We chose this community. This community is what makes us all unique and proud to be an islander. Island Rec has been an important part of this community for over 31 years. Last year we provided over 2,700 hours of varied recreational programming to over 14,000 participants. We maintain four parks; The Former Gravel Pit (LeFarge), the Skate Park and Family Park at the fairgrounds, and Eddie and Friends Dog Park. We sponsor Music On The Lawn and our energetic and enthusiastic Trails Committee, who continues to develop and open up miles of hiking trails all over the island. We operate a large summer camp for kids (Camp Eagle Rock) and an afterschool program for kids (STAR) that provides local families healthy and safe activities for children. These are rich and varied recreational opportunities for islanders and visitors alike and are part of what makes San Juan Island a great place to live and visit. Six years ago our school district expe- Bill Cumming rienced a serious decline in financial support from the state. Faced with decisions of where to cut, they rightfully chose to prioritize academics (keeping teachers in the classroom) and faced the very real possibility of eliminating high school sports. Island Rec, because of its status as a junior taxing district, successfully proposed and passed a levy to fund our high school sports. Without this funding the high school sports program would cease to exist as we now know it. This is a unique solution that few communities can access.

Finally, our community has been given a new 32-acre park and field facility located at the end of Carter Street. This $3.5 million-dollar facility was built entirely by donations, without any tax dollars being used in the construction. We are fortunate to be able to have a facility of this caliber for community use. Island Rec will properly operate and maintain this facility through a small addition to our levy request. Open to all for walking its trail, playing in the children’s park, or just running and playing on the fields when not in use by organized teams, this park complex is a welcome component of keeping our community vibrant, healthy, and safe. Island Rec needs your support. Renewing our levy pays for so much: 18.5 cents will support wide and varied programming and the operations of current parks, 12 cents will continue to fund our high schools sports and 8 cents for the operations and maintenance of our new community park on Carter Street. This is money well spent for our community. Let’s keep it beautiful. Let’s keep it vibrant and healthy. Let’s keep our island one of the very best places to live. Let’s keep it our community. Vote YES for Island Rec. — Editor’s note: former San Juan County sheriff Bill Cumming is chairman of elected commission of San Juan Island Parks and Recreation District, better known as Island Rec.
Spotlight: ‘Years of Living Dangerously’ By Steve Ulvi
Special to the Journal
T
he inner-workings of nature until very recently were mostly beyond human comprehension, outside of awareness of linkages of cause and effect. With the benefit of incredible technological advancement, we now can see the history-altering disruptions we have created. Like many of you, older than we thought we would ever be, I have experienced social upheaval in America, when long-simmering issues reached a boiling point and people took to the streets to force change in stagnant governmental policies that favored the entrenched interests of the few. Today, we know the most deeply entrenched, politically powerful economic interests of all are those of the multi-national corporations making money hand over fist as purveyors of dirty fossil fuels, and which will fight to the end to preserve the status quo. Free-thinking people, informed by decades of serious indications of accelerated climate change, are moving beyond talking-head debates, the selfserving misinformation of bombastic talk radio and congressional inertia.
Award-winning film series begins April 2, at the Grange Progressive governments and communities around the world are forming coalitions to improve energy conservation and to plan for some semblance of resilience in an uncertain future. We are fortunate to live in one of those regions. Late to react, with everything in flux, we must now look beyond the rapidly melting primordial ice at both poles and record-breaking warm temperature years. We have to focus on compounding environmental destruction, political strife and forced relocation of hundreds of millions of people living at a subsistence level. In the eleventh hour, in the huge void left by objective, apolitical and often boring scientific portrayal of the most important story of all time (all but ignored by corporate media) award-winning documentary films are exposing the destructive corporate practices that batter our environment and diminish human lives that are already too short and brutal. I recently learned that as a follow-up
on the informative Climate Lecture Series of last year, and convergent efforts by Transition Lopez and Orcas Sustainability groups, a newly formed citizens group here (San Juan), Islands Climate Resilience, in collaboration with many co-sponsors is scheduling free showings of the nine-part film series: “Years of Living Dangerously,” beginning April 2. Two 60-minute episodes will be shown back-to-back each week at San Juan Island Grange #966, culminating with the final segment and open discussion, April 30. Here we live in a bucolic “geography of hope” in deeply troubling times. I am reassured by these collaborative efforts by informed citizens throughout our county to raise awareness and nudge government toward meaningful energy conservation and adaptive strategies for community resilience. Thinking globally while acting locally has heightened meaning today. This is a good place to draw a line in the sand and stand for life-affirming change. — Editor’s note: A self-described concerned advocate of humans and the natural world, retired NPS ranger Steve Ulvi relocated to the Lower 48, San Juan Island, in 2007.

Circus, theater, and dance, oh my! By Emily Greenberg Journal Reporter
What’s philosophical, sexy, yet still fun for the whole family? The upcoming aerial acrobatic show at San Juan Community Theatre—that’s what. Acrobatic Conundrum, a contemporary circus arts company from Seattle, has been on tour throughout Northern California and the Pacific Northwest since early March. The troupe will perform their new show “The Language of Chance,” April 3, 7:30 p.m., at the theatre. “Our goal is to inspire and delight audiences,” said Ty Vennewitz, Acrobatic Conundrum performer. “We hope people take away something intellectual as well as the wow of the amazing circus skills.”

The show, “The Language of Chance,” is based on the short story “The Library of Babel,” by Jorge Luis Borges. Through multifaceted moves like contortion and aerial acrobatics, the group meddles its way through making sense in a nonsensical world. While Acrobatic Conundrum performs often in cities like Seattle, San Francisco, and even New York, they look forward to bringing their disciplines of circus, theater and dance to Friday Harbor. “In big cities you’re competing with a lot of shows and things to do every night,” Vennewitz said. “It’s nice to go into small towns. Though Vennewitz describes the set the troupe travels with as “fairly minimalist,” one can expect large helium balloons, a cuyr-wheel (think big metal ring that spins like a coin with someone inside of it) among other props. Of course, no circus show would be complete without at least one clown, a role which Vennewitz plays himself. Bringing the act to Friday Harbor has been six months in the making, according to SJCT Artistic Director Susan Williams. Because the group travels throughout the entire country, timing had to be just right. Thanks to relationships with the performing arts centers on both Lopez and Orcas islands, Williams was able to bring Acrobatic Conundrum to San Juan as well. “Because of triple booking we can bring in acts we couldn’t otherwise afford,” she said. The show will also be performed on Lopez and Orcas that

Ugly Architecture through the Ages at IMA By Emily Greenhorn
To some it’s breathtaking, to others it’s just bizarre. The newly erected building, now the permanent home to the once homeless Islands Museum of Art, has certainly got the town talking. “We want to show people that we’re not alone in daring, adventurous architecture,” said IMA head of marketing Rebecca Snarks. “Great minds think alike.” Beginning April 3, IMA’s new weekly rotating exhibit, “Ugly Architecture through the Ages: A Subjective Study” will feature a different building each week that’s sure to engender conversation. Superimposed onto the museum’s walls, an in-depth virtual tour is the forefront of the exhibit. The chosen buildings architects will be on hand via Skype to answer any questions, and give the backstory to what inspired such bravery. Some of the buildings architects are deceased, but their ghosts will be available for feedback. Because IMA is a non-profit organization, and paying the dead architects to visit from other realms, donations are vehemently requested. If enough interest is generated, IMA will host field trips to the buildings in the future, Snarks said.

A group of nuns on a tiny island in the San Juans are capitalizing on the legalization of marijuana. Their new growth operation, dubbed Holy Smokes, will be open on April 20 at 4:20 p.m. “It’s not a ‘bad habit’ if you partake in moderation,” said the nuns, who wished to remain anonymous until the first buds are in bloom. “We are always looking for creative ways to supplement our income and with our agricultural opportunities here, we decided to go into the pot industry.” The nuns plan on calling their new business venture “Holy Smokes.” All proceeds will benefit drug prevention for youths. Word on the street has been positive – except from the Orcas Island Chamber of Commerce. “We wanted to start our own cottage industry for marijuana and call it ‘chamber pot,’” said Executive Director Lancelot Eventide. “But now the nuns have stolen our thunder and run off with the idea.” The marijuana will be sold in the ferry lines via a roaming pot distributor. There will also be drive-up service in Eastsound, the town of Friday Harbor and Lopez Village. “The Pope has given us his blessing,” said the nuns. “We are lighting up a new frontier.”

Keeping in island theme, the first showcased building is the Big Duck in Long Island, NY. The Duck was built in 1931 by Duck Farmer Martin Mauer to attract duck egg buyers. The duck was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1997. Functioning now mostly as a duck history museum, the IMA board feels its building has a lot in common with the quacker. “Because we are the first museum of its kind in the San Juans we’re hoping to eventually be added to the National Register as well,” Sparks said. After the Big Duck will be Federation Square in Melbourne, Australia. This is Melbourne’s first public square. It’s sweeping glass atrium is of particular interest. While the
building was once considered as the winner of many architectural design competitions, many Aussie’s are still skeptical of its beauty. The building has been listed as one of the 30 ugliest buildings in the world in several travel blogs. The new exhibit is sure to beg the question of “what is art,” and should prove be a reminder that aesthetics are entirely subjective.

In an effort to promote and enhance its new reservation system, Washington State Ferries has come up with an incentive for riders. The idea came to WSF Chief Daveed Mossely after he attended a conference at Swinomish Casino in Anacortes. Although not a gambler, Mossely was drawn to the slot machines and the nature of pure chance. “New ideas are what makes this country great,” said Mosseley said in a recent press release. Thanks to that epiphany, WSF has teamed up with Swinomish Casino to not only install slot machines for riders with reservations on all ferries by 2016, but to include an extra-special
prize in those games of chance: the golden ticket. The golden ticket will provide a guaranteed spot on any ferry at any time–no reservation required. If for some reason the ticket holder misses a ferry, they will also be given access to any airplane or helicopter leaving the island. Mossely, who was a huge fan of “Charlie and the Chocolate Factory,” wants to give something back to residents and tourists who commute in the waters of the Salish Sea. “There has been so much pressure on the ferries system to be everything for everyone,” Mossely said. “We’ve lost that whimsical mystical energy that we had when this whole travel by See ROULETTE, Page 11

Sheriff’s Log San Juan County Sheriff ’s Department reported responding to these calls: March 20: Expired tags and a familiar face led to an early morning arrest of an Orcas Island man for driving under delusions of grandeur. The 25-year-old, who was pulled over shortly before 7 a.m. near the intersection of Crow Valley and Deer Harbor roads, claimed to have diplomatic immunity from having to register his vehicle and that he could sprint to the summit of Turtleback Mountain without stopping. He reportedly is a spitting image of U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry. n A San Juan Island woman was flown off-island for a mental health evaluation following a late-night encounter with a family of raccoons. The 53-year-old, who claimed to have done the voice-over for the Alvin and the Chipmunks, was taken into protective custody at about 1 a.m. following complaints by Portland Fair-area residents about earsplitting screeches and high-pitched squeals coming from the woods nearby. She was reportedly surrounded by a half-dozen raccoons and singing a Broadway tune when deputies happened upon the congregation in a clearing in the brush. March 22: Allegations of assault prompted the arrest of a Lopez Island woman accused of butchering a song at a karaoke contest. The 22-year-old, flustered by a wardrobe mal-

this sudden change in gears by WSF. “They want us to focus on all this new casino stuff…it’s classic misdirection,” said Lynn McLynnluy. “But what I want to know is what are they hiding from us?” Another islander, Cort McCortly, wants to know how much money WSF would be profiting from the
function during the performance, according to one witness, reportedly improvised lyrics to Lady Gaga’s “Poker Face” and sang off-pitch, off-key and without proper passion. She was taken into custody for creating a public nuisance, a misdemeanor offense. n A 54-year-old man identified as homeless and “full of himself ” was taken into custody for no real reason after an early morning encounter with authorities at a San Juan Island campground. The man, who claimed his recreational vehicle serves both as a home and mobile office, was on the island to conduct research for a book extolling the virtues and scenic beauty of the area. Deputies reportedly read a couple paragraphs from an earlier book by the itinerant author and were unimpressed. March 23: A 20-pound bag of dog food, a squeaky toy and a single slipper disappeared from an Orcas Island pet supply store in apparent after-hours break-in. The missing merchandise, valued at $733, had been on display in the front window of the Eastsound shop. A series of paw prints outlined in colored chalk were reportedly found on the concrete floor of the store, located next to a fire hydrant near the Village Green. March 25: An alleged violation of the local ban on genetically modified organism prompted the arrest of two professors and four graduate students at UW Friday Harbor Labs. The six scientists reportedly were inserting flying squirrel DNA into sea cucumber tissues as part of a federally funded research project. Deputies seized various slot machines. Other islanders are confused because Mossely was working with WSF after he officially resigned in 2014. “The whole thing is fishy,” said one commentator. Mossely said he would be happy to answer these questions and more at an all you can seafood buffet at his home in Southern

The southend-area neighbors, who share an emergency shelter equipped with a compost toilet, reportedly came to blows over the merits of storing black beans versus refried beans, and whose iTunes playlist is more bluesy. March 28: Excessive speed led to a high-speed chase, a late-night traffic stop and the subsequent arrest of an Orcas Island woman who reportedly was bored out of her mind. The 33-year-old, who was pulled over near the intersection of North Beach and Bartel roads at about 2 a.m., initially claimed not to have noticed lights flashing in her review mirror but later admitted driving fast was an ideal antidote for a faulty internet connection that prevented her from watching a favorite Netflix program. — Scooter Harassmus
