“The Pole Barn People” 2
Established in 1988
Part 1
The Beauty of Birch
Part 1 FOR PART 2 SEE PAGE 149
There are twelve species of the Betula Genus of Birch Trees. Some of the common names are; Paper Bark Birch, River Birch, Himilayan Birch, Bog Birch, Cherry Birch, Downy Birch, Dwarf Birch, Japanese White Birch, and . . . They love water (some more than others), they have
great color and shape, they grow well in our climate and, they give us shade! We all love Birches! And, in the past three years, an invader has come to the Willamette Valley that loves Birches too. Meet “Bronze Birch Borer” in Part 2 of this magazine.
Do you see ‘lumps’ forming under the bark of your tree? Do you see bronzy colored oozing? Do you see unusual bark separation?
If you don’t want to lose your tree, take action! A serious epidemic is underway.
SINCE 1948
**For the rest of the story and how to solve this situation before it is too late, see Part 2, in this magazine.**

The most popular car show & cruise in Lane County just got bigger & better... After adding a Friday Night Cruise for newer-model cars last year, the Function 4 Junction will spread out into the countryside this year with the addition of a Sunday Poker Run. Cars of any make or model can cruise a half-dozen vineyards in the foothills of the Coast Range, collect cards to build a poker hand and win prizes at the end of the day. We’re also hosting a new Saturday Swap Meet on April 14 in the JC High School parking lot that features a 5am early bird start. As with all F4J events, a majority of the proceeds will go to support our College Scholarship fund.

Excerpts

“It was our grand parents and parents who were the pioneers. The first wagon train west arrived late in the fall of 1843. It is estimated one-half million emigrants traveled this great wagon trail, until the advent of the automobile ended the era in the early 1900s. Today stretches of the Oregon Trail are still visible as ruts-ruts carved into the earth, worn by time and masked by wildflowers, sagebrush and trees. . . .” “In 1579, . . . Trade was initiated with the natives, trinkets for sea otter fur. The fur was transported to China where riches beyond the wildest dreams awaited the adventuresome sailors. Within a decade the sea otter played out and mountain men pushed inland, trading and trapping beaver. The great companies, Hudson’s Bay, North West and Pacific Fur fought for the rich spoils. . . .” “Lumberman Samuel Wilkeson wrote in 1869, on viewing the Western forests for the first time, ‘Oh! What timber! These trees so enchain the sense of the grand and so enchant the sense of the beautiful that I am loth to depart. Forests in which you cannot ride a horse, forests into which you cannot see, and which are almost dark under a bright midday sun, such forests containing firs, cedars, pine, spruce and hemlock . . .”

Rock Of Ages
Your Place For Custom Cabochons & Wire Wrapping Cliff Case and family have lived in Harrisburg for 37 years. His wife came up with the name “Rock of Ages” and it is fitting based on his Christian beliefs. “I have always liked rocks. Even as a kid I put rocks in my pockets instead of worms and frogs,” Cliff said. “I set up a rock shop in 2012, after retiring from Morse Brothers, and have been happily polishing jasper, agate, blue sodalite, etc., ever since. “Often a customer will come with a rough stone which they ask me to make a special piece for them. First, I inspect the stone for natural cracks and fissures, then give the customer a quote of time and price. “Besides making custom bracelets and necklaces I also make earrings, wire bracelets, animal pins and whatever else my imagination and machinery can agree upon. Unique designs are the ‘fun’ of what goes on in my shop.” Visit the Courtyard on 6th in Junction City to see a display case with some of my current creations. Prices run from $8 to $50.” Call: 541-510-8451 CaseCliff@comcast.net Psalm 18:2 “The Lord is my rock.”

Salvage Sisters Antiques & More By Kathy Rowland
My sister-in-law,
Laura, and myself retired two years ago and decided to follow our passion--we love antiques and collectibles. It was easy to ‘adjust our lifestyle’ and switch to restoring, repurposing and bringing old furniture back to life. You can find results of our ‘works’ in the Courtyard on 6th, in Junction City. Recently the owner, John, came to us with an idea that we should consider making ‘mini rooms’ of furniture and collectibles displayed in a functional way. What a grand idea!
So when you come to the Courtyard on 6th be sure to go upstairs and check out our new showrooms. Perhaps you’ll even get some decorating ideas, that’s fine with us. You can purchase individual items or the entire room. That’s fine with us too. We invite you to come visit us at the Courtyard on 6th, in Junction City, Monday thru Saturday, 10-6pm. Do you want a fun day? Stop by the Courtyard and peruse away!
We have Firewood For Sale Now Taking Orders For This Fall Call 541-953-1194 Laura’s phone number is 541-953-1194 Kathy’s phone number is 541-517-3079 Store hours are Monday thru Saturday from 10am to 6pm.

You Need to Know!
“Did you know a properly maintained Heating and Air Conditioning (HVAC) unit can improve your vehicle’s engine health? (see answer below) Did you know that your Heating unit and Air Conditioning unit are, for all practical purposes, one in the same? Did you know that a properly maintained HVAC will allow you to be warmer in the winter and give you more effective defrost air for your windshield? (your HVAC dehumidifies) Before you get desperate during the summer heat waves, NOW is the time to get an air conditioner check-up. Putting off maintenance for an HVAC runs the risk of damaging it and likely end up costing you much more later on. Drop by during business hours and I will check fluids at no charge, then we can set an appointment to do a complete air conditioner service. Here’s the answer to the first question. On a HOT DAY the HVAC system is designed to keep YOU and your ENGINE COOL. For this to happen it is critical that the HVAC oil level and refrigerant charge is to manufacture’s specifications. We use ECO friendly products that will restore your HVAC system back to Brand New Vehicle Factory Charge Specifications.” — Bill Morrow — ASE Certified.

Testimonial - “Whenever we call, we get one of the owners, Craig or Rick. We recently did a kitchen
remodel. They ran gas, water and replaced drain lines. After the cabinets were installed, they hooked up our gas range, and installed our new kitchen sink and dishwasher and hooked up the ice/water on our refrigerator. Our former drain was running slow, so they ‘snaked’ the line and now its great too! These are the ONLY plumbers we’ll ever call!” - SR, Junction City

ChaQuinn Cook
O
regon’s newest up-and-coming triple-jump star, ChaQuinn Cook, didn’t always know track and field was for her. In fact, when she first invited to join track and field she had no idea there were events that didn’t involve running. Cook excelled at Benson Tech High School, playing basketball and volleyball. Though she hadn’t originally planned on trying track, she gave it a shot after doing well at the triple-jump during P.E.. Cook took to the triple-jump quickly, and won the Oregon 5A triple-jump title as a sophomore.
Cook tore an ACL at the beginning of her junior year and though the surgery went well, the time off hurt her chances at landing a scholarship at a major university. In the end the only offer she received was from Portland State. She liked the coach, Ronnye Harrison, and signed with the Vikings. But Harrison left for Oklahoma before Cook even enrolled. Cook won several titles and passed the 42-foot mark for the first time in her career. But despite her success, Cook didn’t like the new coaching staff. After the 2016 season ended she began looking at other options. Cook considered Georgia and Oklahoma but ended up enrolling at Oregon. Cook loved the coaching staff and appreciated what they could do for her career. Oregon’s track and field coach, Robert Johnson, spent a whole season fixing her jump approach. The work paid off. During the 2017 Pac-12 Championships Cook jumped a personal best 44.15, winning the Pac-12 title. She went on to earn second-team All-American honors and placed ninth at the NCAA Championships. And according to coach Robert Johnson, Cook still has a year until she reaches her full potential. You can see the track and field team compete in Eugene on April 7 and May 4.

ince he was a little boy, Jack Anderson dreamed of the day when he’d play for the Oregon State Beavers at Goss Stadium. He attended so many games growing up that Corvallis became a second home. Of course, in his dreams making the team was far easier than reality. At Lake Oswego High School, Anderson earned all-state honors in football, baseball and basketball. Though he was talented, the college offers didn’t come pouring in. In the end he was only offered by two schools – a scholarship to Division III Linfield and a walk-on spot at Oregon State. While the spot at Oregon State team wasn’t guaranteed, Anderson decided to follow his dream of becoming a Beaver. At the end of fall ball during his freshman year, head coach Pat Casey let Anderson and a few other players know they

would redshirt the 2014 season. Once the season started, Anderson wasn’t allowed to practice or be in the dugout during games. Instead of being disheartened, Anderson began working out five to seven days a week with fellow Jack Anderson baseball redshirt and future basketball walk-on Matt Dahlen. Anderson’s work paid off, earning him a roster spot after some of the team’s pro prospects left to join the MLB. Today, Anderson is a star player, earning multiple Pac-12 accolades. In 2017 alone, he batted .281 with five doubles, one triple, one home run and 30 RBI in 59 games. He batted in every spot of the lineup at least once - the only OSU player to do so. State baseball’s first home game is March 2. For more information, go to osubeavers.com.

With tree services just catching up with damage caused by a rough, wet and windy winter, Brian Jones from A-1 Ron’s Stump & Tree Removal, a family business since 1989, says, “Now is the time to assess your trees so you aren’t doing it during a storm or after a storm when more damage occurs and tree services are busy. “We will inspect your trees and give you a complete assessment. We’ll show you where the danger is before a disaster occurs. This will prevent costly damage from falling trees or tree limbs dropping on cars and houses, and people. So don’t put off that tree inspection, as the best time for an assessment is in the summertime.” The tree experts at A-1 prevent future property damage by spotting potential weaknesses that lead to fallen trees and branches. Keeping your trees well maintained with a tree health assessment can increase property value as well. Call A-1 to identify which trees are liabilities and which are assets. “Trees, like humans, suffer from disease and decay and have a life expectancy, so they should be assessed yearly,” Brian says. “You’ll find dangerous trees, healthy trees and unwanted trees. In any case, we’ll give you a free estimate, and if needed, we will provide you with experienced service to clean up and complete the job.” “A-1 has modern equipment for the upkeep of your property. Safety and efficiency was recently improved our acquisition of a 60foot boom truck, which reduces customer costs in some cases, but tree climbers may still be needed. To help with upkeep, discounts for teachers, seniors and military personnel will be honored through October. Call us NOW to inspect. A damaged tree is a dangerous tree!”

Monroe is proof that when a community works
together it can surmount all obstacles. An open house was held in the spring of 2013. It took six years of persistence to raise $2.4 million of private money and MAX create a library that is the envy of all small towns. It’s worth a stop to chat with the librarian and find out how useful this community library is.

ST our customers have needs they don’t even Sometimes T S 6TH S
know they have. Have you ever taken the side off your desktop and looked inside? Most people haven’t thought to do that. Well if you did, no matter how clean your house is, you will find a layer of dust, and dust bunnies, that collect from thin air. When we get a desktop in we always blow them out. We have found dead frogs, mice and dust bunnies in computers. Now it has nothing to do with your cleaning habits, it is just that a computer is a magnet for dust, I don’t’ know about mice and frogs - how they got in I have no idea. When you take your computer to the big box store to get it fixed, you should ask how much they charge to blow it out. Call and ask them. We do it as a service to our customers free. And it gives us a chance to check your fans. Sometimes the dust is so thick on the fan it really slows it down and then makes the computer get too B or ineffecient system. hot, which can result in a damaged Now I can hear all of you running to your computer to check the dust in it, but we would be glad to do it for you for free, when you bring in your computer for work.

After the cabinets were installed, they hooked up our gas range, and installed our new kitchen sink and dishwasher and hooked up the ice/water on our refrigerator. Our former drain was running slow, so they ‘snaked’ the line and now its great too! These are the ONLY plumbers we’ll ever call!” - SR, Junction City Testimonial -

that, chairs are what we work on the most1at our shop! Here’s some basics about this very common item. FIRE STA. The most important joint on a chair is the seat to back joint. This joint is stressed every time the chair is pushed 1 back 4 or leaned on. The higher the chair back, the more stress there will be. To check that joint on your chairs, put your knee on the seat and push on the back. Do you see movement at that joint? If yes, it’s time to take 3 action! Things to check:
*If you see wood plugs on the back of the stiles, remove them, tighten screws & replace plugs. (This may require new stained & finished plugs.)

Some of us haven't thought about going to this auction– we didn't know that by going, we could be making a difference in the future of our youth. The vision of these clubs are to 'provide a . . . club experience that will offer the opportunity to graduate from high school and enter the future beyond, while demonstrating a healthy lifestyle along with good character and citizenship'. The need for this club experience was recognized by three women. In 1860, the Boys Clubs began. The conSA NT IA M cept worked so well that in 1990 the organizers of Boys Clubs of America decided that it was time to let girls join RIVER in the vision. That year, the U.S. Congress amended the charter to read, "Boys & Girls Clubs of America." Let's all join in this auction! Call 541-258-7105 Learn more about this organization at: bgca.org

Dorris Ranch
Story by Gini Bramlett Photos by Willamalane Park and Rec. District
Put This Family Place On Your Bucket List If you’re a nature enthusiast, a history buff or both,
a visit to Dorris Ranch in Springfield should be on your bucket list. Dorris Ranch in southwest Springfield, part of the Willamalane Park and Recreation District is listed in the National Register of Historic Places. It is a national historic site, a working farm and a public park complete with walking trails and natural areas. The ranch also serves as the western access point of the paved, four-mile-long Middle Fork Path, which runs to Clearwater Park. Dorris Ranch is recognized as the first commercial filbert orchard in the United States. Oregon’s history with filberts started in 1892 when George Dorris and his wife Lulu bought 250 acres of fertile land along the Willamette River and dedicated their lives to farming. After experimenting with a variety of crops, George established the first commercial filbert orchard in the United States. Over the next 50 years the Dorris family planted 9,200 trees at the ranch and harvested more than 50 tons of nuts each year. Now, more than 100 years later, Dorris Ranch continues to make history as a fully-productive commercial filbert orchard. More than half of all the commercial filbert trees now growing in the United States originated from Dorris Ranch nursery stock.
The working ranch contains 11 orchards containing more than 9,000 trees on 75 acres. A local orchardist maintains the orchards. Visitors can step back to 1852 and discover what life was like for the original owners of the ranch, William and Eliza Masterson and their family, and view a replica of their simple 12-foot-by-16-foot log cabin, a blacksmith shop, a freight farm wagon and replicas of a 1830s fur trapper’s cabin and a Native American plank house.
Dorris Ranch is also host to a variety of plants, flowers and birds. Come for a visit and enjoy a walk through this 250-acre historic site and natural area at your own pace on one of the park’s self-guided tours. Brochures with all the interesting facts, historical sites and a map of area paths are available at the entrance kiosk.
Dorris Ranch, 205 Dorris St., is open to the public weekdays and weekends from 6 a.m. till dusk. To get there from downtown Springfield, travel south on South 2nd St. The ranch is at the bottom of the hill.

Western Oregon’s Covered Bridges
Chitwood
On the following four pages you will find: • A map with 51 locations. • Instructions on how to drive to each covered bridge. • Four short loop tours. • The basic concept of bridge engineering.
Crawfordsville Krewson
Facts:
Bridges have been major part of Oregon’s growth from 1850 through the 1900s. Crossing rivers and creeks were a major problem for people and commerce. Ferries were not dependable due to the rise and fall and swiftness of these rivers and creeks. The sooner a bridge could be built, the more consistent the flow of trade. At first, bridges were not covered and the wet environment of the forest caused Joel Whittmore the planks to rot. Covering added years of life. At one time there were approximately 600 covered bridges in Oregon. Due to being replaced by modern steel and concrete, and abandonment or neglect, that number has dwindled to the present 51. For many locals, that raised an alarm. This has resulted in countless volunteer hours and huge dollars to repair, and sometimes move to a more desirable location, those remaining bridges that had fallen into disrepair. If someone claims to have been to ‘every’ covered bridge in Oregon (and its not in this guide) they need to send proof, pictures and location, and we’ll gladly publish it here, upon confirmation. Photo at right - Along your journey you may even find a few uncared for bridges, like the Dahlenburg foot bridge that was built over Ames Creek in 1989. No matter what, the search for covered bridges is fascinating. Every bridge has its own Dahlenburg unique scenery and its own story to tell.

WESTERN OREGON’S COVERED BRIDGES Structure is Everything To make the most out of your covered bridge trek, notice the groupings and plan your day accordingly. Be sure to look for the truss type that supports the bridge you are visiting. There are a few reasons why the Howe truss was most commonly used; primarily it was its simple design strength over long distances coupled with its vertical steel tie-rods that allowed maintenance crews to adjust as needed.
Drift Creek
Office
Lost Creek
Oldest is Drift Creek orig. 1914 // the longest is Office at 180’ // the shortest is Lost Creek at 39’ Kingpost Style Construction Queenpost Style Construction #19 #2, #21, #22, #23
Upside-Down Howe Const. #36
Kingpost Construction
#19 Neal Lane (42’ span) - Myrtle Creek
Standard Howe Style Const. All others
Queenpost Construction
#2 Alva Doc Fourtner (66’ span) - Grand Ronde #21 Wilmer (85’) - Rogue River #22 Antelope Creek (58’) - Eagle Point #23 Lost Creek (39’ span) - Lake Creek
Howe Construction
All Others except #41 (#47 Office has 180’ span; longest in Oregon) (#41 Rock O’ the Range has its own unique support.)
Upside-down Howe Construction Earth and Gravel Or Entry Ramp
Bedding Timbers Typical Concrete Footing with Abutment
#36
Cascadia (105’ span) - Sweet Home Cascadia was covered but is now uncovered, its uniqueness is the upside-down Howe.
Each bridge has their own unique history. To get the most out of a covered bridge outing it is suggested by our staff that visitors stop in at the local library, museum and/or chamber of commerce. And, while you are in the town, be sure to check out the downtown business district for food and shopping.

A word from Westfir Mayor Matt Meske “If you are an outdoors person or someone who would like to live in a quiet community, Westfir is the place for you. We have several local swimming holes, hiking trails, popular biking trails, birding nature area, horse-
70
back riding trails, and a not-to-distant OHV park. And the amazing Aufderheide Scenic Highway begins here. With Westfir Lodge we have beds and meals, for RV overnighters we have Casey’s Riverside RV Park, and of
course, Oakridge is just a few minutes away for everything else. We have a terrific community, a healthy climate, and much more. In short, this is a great place to live.” •

It’s spring semester at UCLA and Delta Nu sorority president Elle Woods has it all. That is, until her seemingly picture-perfect boyfriend Warner dumps her to move across the country and pursue his calling at Harvard Law. Positive that she can win him back, Elle follows him to law school in an effort to save their relationship. Though at first she faces opposition from her classmates, she soon befriends Paulette, a lovelorn sassy hairstylist, and Emmett, a devoted law student. With their help, along with hard work, perseverance, and a little bend and snap, Elle proves to herself and everyone that she is far more than just another bubbly blonde. Based on the novel and hit movie of the same name, Legally Blonde is an upbeat, feel-good musical that explodes on the stage with memorable songs and dynamic dances. Equal parts hilarious and heart-warming, this musical is so much fun, it shouldn’t be legal!
The Crucible June 8-24, 2018

Arthur Miller’s powerful play The Crucible, written in response to the McCarthy hearings of the 1950s, is a
partially fictionalized dramatization of the 1692 Salem witch trials. In the play, several young girls and a servant play in the woods, conjuring — or attempting to conjure — spirits from the dead. Rumors of witchcraft quickly spread through the town. Rather than suffer severe punishment for their actions, the girls accuse other inhabitants of Salem of practicing witchcraft. This desperate, dangerous, and childish finger-pointing results in mass paranoia and an atmosphere of fear in which everyone is a potential witch. With neighbor pitted against neighbor, a self-perpetuating cycle of distrust, accusation, arrest, and conviction emerges. Winner of the 1953 Tony Award for Best Play, The Crucible reminds us how intolerance and hysteria can intersect and tear a community apart.

Quick History, Past From its headwaters at Diamond Lake
in the Cascade Mountain Range, 100 miles east of Roseburg, the Umpqua River snakes its way 111 miles past Roseburg to where it empties into the Pacific Ocean at Winchester Bay. Simply put, the Scenic Umpqua River Valley stretches from Roseburg where the North Umpqua and South Umpqua meet (six miles northwest of Roseburg), to its mouth at Winchester Bay. The river and its valleys are famous for many things, including world class fishing, scenic trails, logging and, more recently, wine. In the early 1800’s the Umpqua River valley was inhabited mostly by the Coquilles, a tribe of Native Americans. The tribe gave most of its land to the United States in the 1854 Treaty with the Umpqua
82
and Kalapuya, agreeing to move to a reservation in Lincoln County and become part of the Confederated Tribes of Siletz. The river itself is named for the Umpqua, one of the Coquille bands. Two translations of the Native American word “umpqua” are “thundering waters” and “across the waters”. Since the early pioneer days, the river and surrounding areas helped produce and move the greatest wealth in Southern Oregon-timber and gold. Sailing vessels and steam schooners would arrive at Winchester Bay and their hard-to-get merchandise would be loaded onto river boats that would carry the goods to Scottsburg, where the deep tidewater ends and the rapids begin. There, the goods would be re-loaded onto mule trains and head for the interior valley and Roseburg.
On the turn-around trip the mule trains would be loaded with timber and gold from the valley and sent back to be re-loaded at Scottsburg for the final leg to Winchester Bay. This all worked fine until devestating floods of the 1860s wiped out most of Scottsburg, sinking it into obscurity. Also, at the same time, advancements of the north/south railroad lines in the valley, made shipping more predictable. Today, the Umpqua River is famous for some of the world’s best fly-fishing, salmon fishing, and sturgeon fishing. It is also known for its small-mouth bass, striped bass, and shad population. The river and its heavy summer steelhead run was made famous when writer and sports angler Major Lawrence Mott, also known as the “millionaire reporter”, set up a fishing camp in the area in 1929.

Darlingtonia Natural Site
Story by Colette Kimball, Photos by Rick Obst
Just off Highway 101, near the north end of Florence, sits a bog full of plants which are so rare that
the State of Oregon maintains an 18-acre botanical park to protect them. The plants are the Darlingtonia californica, more commonly known as a “Cobra Lilly” or “Pitcher Plant.” plants from a boardwalk over the bog. at any time of the year, the best time to The Darlingtonia Natural Site visit may be in the late spring or early includes a quarter-mile-long loop trail While seeing the rare insect-eating plants growing in the wild is enjoyable summer when the plants are in bloom. that provides excellent views of the Life in a bog, where there are few nutrients in the soil, can be hard for a plant. The Darlingtonia has adapted by “eating” insects. The process is rather simple: insects are attracted into the plant’s “mouths” by sweet-smelling nectar. Once inside, the insects become confused and can’t find their way back out. Eventually, they slide to the base of the plant where they drown in a pool of fluid. As the insect bodies break down, they release nutrients which the plant absorbs. Theses carnivorous flora have been called, ‘eerily spectacular!’
Formerly known as the Darlingtonia Wayside, the Darlingtonia Natural Site is located just east of Highway 101, five miles north of Florence. It is conveniently close to the coast highway and makes for an easy stop.

Siuslaw Pioneer Museum Florence
By Colette Kimball Photos By Historical Society
It is no surprise that Florence, with its vibrant historic
Old Town, is full of history. Settlers were first attracted to the area in the late 1800s because of its wealth of natural resources, especially timber and salmon. The area was so rugged and remote that these hardy people depended on natural thoroughfares – traveling on the beach or along the Siuslaw River – to connect with the outside world. Despite this isolation, the population in Florence flourished so that by 1905 a two-story schoolhouse was built. Today, that schoolhouse is the perfect setting for the Siuslaw Pioneer Museum.
Located in the heart of Old Town the museum provides an interesting collection of artifacts from earlier times. Showing how people lived and worked in the Siuslaw River area is the focus of the first floor exhibits. The second floor features a military room, displays of office and sewing equipment, and a room of Native American artifacts. Sprinkled throughout the museum are videos which explain the history in more detail. Perhaps the best displays, however, are a large replica of a saw mill and some of the original controls from the Siuslaw River drawbridge. These are located outside on the back patio. Harry Zinn, Operations Manager, says that the museum is constantly getting new donations and regularly rotates their exhibits to keep them fresh and interesting. An addition is also in the works, which will increase both exhibit and storage space. The Siuslaw Pioneer Museum is located 278 Maple Street. Admission $3. Check the Museum’s website (www.siuslawpioneermuseum.com) for open hours.

FLORENCE, SOUTH OF THE BRIDGE
The Siuslaw River Bridge, pictured above, looking southward, was opened in 1936. It was designed by Conde
McCullough (1887-1946) who had designed fourteen Hwy 101 bridges, from Astoria to Gold Beach, that were completed between 1921 and 1936. The Siuslaw River Bridge is 1,568’ long and has a double-lift bascule (counter-weighted drawbridge) that allows 110’ clearance. The four obelisks at the corners of the bascule contain mechanical apparatus. Prints available at PhotosByShaun.com Glenada was platted in 1889 by George Colter (Coulter). Dunes City and Westlake, 7.5 miles south of Florence, are communities that are now blended together as Dunes City.

The Umpqua River, which runs along the north side of Reedsport and whose mouth is at Winchester Bay, and whose tidewaters reach nearly 20 miles inland to the town of Scottsburg, was a major shipping route in the mid 1800s. This river provided movement of cargo to the upper Willamette Valley-essential tools & supplies went upriver and gold & lumber went downriver. The Umpqua shipping went to Coos Bay when the 1st Umpqua lighthouse (that was build on a sand spit near the river) collapsed in 1863. See Lighthouse section.

by Diane Novak, director Come inside the Umpqua Discovery Center on Reedsport’s riverfront and you’ll enter an exciting new world. You will be taken on a journey through time in the Tidewaters and Time cultural history exhibit and gift shop. The adventure begins with the Kuuich Indians and early explorers, such as Jedediah Smith. Listen as the early pioneers tell stories about life in a tidewater town and watch videos of how logging was done in the past. Walk through the fish cannery and tidewater town. The combination of genuine historical artifacts and high tech sound and light will heighten your appreciation of the experience. In the natural history exhibit, Pathways to Discovery, visitors are taken along on a simulated outdoor adventure. First, there’s the estuary at sunrise in the fall. This is followed by the deep forest in winter at midday, where you can slide into the bear cave and learn about hibernating bears. Next you enter the weather station, listen to storm stories from the past, and learn a wealth of information from the OMSI exhibits on rain, wind, and atmosphere. Your journey will continue to a high mountain meadow on a spring afternoon, and then to a summer sunset in the dunes. The end of the trail is the Subterranean Education Room where you’ll view videos on skeletons, weather, seashore & animal homes.
Open Daily (admission charged): June 1-Sept 30: Mon-Sat, 10-5pm; Sun 12-4pm Oct 1-May 31: Mon-Sat, 10-4pm; Sun 12-4pm Located at 409 Riverfront Way, Reedsport. For info call 541-271-4816 or go to www.umpquadiscoverycenter.com

Life-Saving Light The Fresnel lens was invented by Augustin-Jean Fresnel and installed in the 223’ French Cordouan lighthouse in 1853. This more efficient lens (than a planoconvex lens) takes light from a small source and refracts the light waves into a concentrated beam.

OREGON COAST LIGHTHOUSES
PhotosByShaun.com Featured Lighthouse: The Coquille River Lighthouse was lit in 1896. For the people of Bandon, it offerred the hope of greater commerce. There were few roads on the Oregon Coast at that time. This lighthouse was decommissioned in 1939 when the Coast Guard placed an automated beacon near the end of the south jetty.
T
he development of lighthouses on the west coast in the 1800s was a must for commerce and U.S. westward expansion, especially when the infrastructure of highways and airports was non-existent. The rush to build lighthouses was as important as the push of railroads (east and west; and north and south). Still useful today, lighthouses reassure mariners that they are on the right course. From their inception, lighthouses were expensive to operate and, being a keeper of the lighthouse could be lonely and dangerous-think
of living on Terrible Tilly (Tillamook Rock) with rough seas smashing over the top of the lighthouse. By the 1930s technology had improved to allow additional options for maritime safety. Oregon’s Lightships: various Columbia lightships, a ‘lighthouse’ on a ship, marked the entrance of the Columbia River from 1892-1979. The last one is docked in Astoria, tours are available. U.S. Facts: The tallest U.S. lighthouse is Cape Hatteras Lighthouse, N.C., 200’ tall. The only ‘keeper’ in the U.S. still ‘keeping a lighthouse’
(by order of U.S. Congress) is in the Boston Lighthouse. It is the oldest station in the U.S. The U.S. state with the most lighthouses is Michigan, with 124. Earliest U.S. lighthouses built were in Maine, 1791 and in Virginia, 1792. World facts: The first recorded lighthouse was built by Egypt in 285 B.C., and was destroyed by earthquake in 1302. The oldest existing lighthouse in the world is the 180’ Tower of Hercules, near Corunna, Spain, built between 100-200 A.D. •

Section 6 is west of the I-5 Freeway. It is shown along with its neighboring sections. As you can see, it’s central city, the City of Banks, is positioned as a ‘hub’. (See City of Banks page) A Short, Short Story The settlement of Section 6 accelerated when President Thomas Jefferson completed the purchase of the Louisiana Territory from France in 1803. This doubled the size of the young United States of America. Quickly, the U.S. Congress allocated $2,500 for an expedition to discover what lay west of that purchase. President Jefferson asked his friend Lewis to be the commander. Knowing he needed help, Lewis asked his friend Clark, a man he had served with in the army, to be co-commander. Lewis was the botanist and journal keeper and Clark took care of the organizing and logistics. From May 1804 to September 1806. The Corps of Discovery traveled 8,000 miles. Fort Clatsop was the pivot. Lewis and Clark foung fertile valleys, fish, and timber. All were close to the Columbia for import/export. This area was an immediate success for the settlement of a new frontier and for the needs of all America.

Oregon Ghost Towns An Overview
Conley house at Flora
General store at Golden The last building of Bethel
by Steve Arndt
Did you know that Oregon has more ghost towns
than any other state? According to Rick Hamell, our state’s ghost town guru, we have in excess of 250. Another report says we have over 500, if you count places where nothing remains today. Any community that has experienced a ‘significant loss of population’ may be considered a ghost town. Old mining towns, farming communities, and timberrelated settlements are ghost towns today. Some of my favorite ghost towns in the state are Ajax, Buncom, Chico, Promise, and Susanville – places many have never heard of. Let’s see how much you know about Oregon’s ghost towns. 1 – Which ghost town, less than three miles off of Interstate-5, was the setting for the old TV Western ‘Gunsmoke?’ Ans: Three miles east of the community of Wolf Creek was the once flourishing gold mining area called Golden. Today a state park, several buildings still stand, all vacant, in this former town that did not have a saloon. Hydraulic mining pulled a lot of gold from Coyote Creek, but ruined the land for generations to come. The cemetery, next to the church, is a TV prop, left over from the days when Gunsmoke was filmed here. Ghost Towns

Roads Less Traveled in Oregon is a series of books by Steve Arndt focusing on the history and beauty of Oregon. Each book guides you through a geographic region of Oregon using mostly back roads and takes you to the amazing small towns that dot the countryside.

2 – What Oregon ghost town has the most vacant buildings? Ans: In the northeast corner of the state near the border with Washington, 43 miles north of Joseph, is the ghost town of Flora. Only two full time resident families call Flora home today. It is hard to envision a population that could sustain the 100-year-old school house that has been remodeled and sits in the very center of the community. Try to imagine this community with a bank, livery stable, post office, millinery, doctor, telephone office, flourmill, hotel, two stores, two churches, three shingle mills and three blacksmith shops. 3 – What ghost town in Polk County had its own college, that still stands, and has been under charter since 1855 but not held classes since 1861? Ans: East of Highway 99, at the corner of Bethel Rd. and Zena Rd., 15 miles north of Monmouth, are the remains of Bethel and Bethel College, founded in 1855. It had financial problems and eventually conjoined in 1865, with what is today, Western Oregon University. The main building stands today, but sadly in 2013, the old gymnasium burned. The post office, blacksmith shop, general store, and carpentry shop are all gone, and only a few farmhouses stand as a reminder of Bethel.

Oregon is a state full of unique wonder and beauty. In 2003, Steve Arndt, an award winning educator and teacher, began writing a series of books, that linked out-of-the-way places together on self-guided tours, focusing on history and things to see and do that most people by-pass. Steve, his wife Diane, and their now-grown children have spent many weekends and school vacations exploring Oregon back roads and off-the-beaten path places. Diane enjoys her role as photographer, organizer, and proofreader of Steve’s book series. They have recently published three new booksGhost Towns in Oregon, A-Z-each containing information on 50 Oregon ghost towns. To order go to: roadslesstraveledoregon.com

The Appalachian Road Trip - Part Two ‘On The Way’ Back to Oregon
The Blue Ridge Parkway
The Parkway begins in Virginia and ends 469 miles later in North Carolina. It connects Shenandoah on the North to the Great Smoky Mountains on the South. The journey started great. It was a nice two lane road with a 45 mph speed limit. We had great weather until late afternoon. We decided to spend the night at the Peaks of Otter Forest Service Campground. Peaks of Otter is one of the major developed areas on the parkway. It has a living history farm, camping, hiking, lodge, and visitor center.
. When we drove through the campground it was totally deserted. That made us a little uncomfortable, but we didn’t know of any alternatives at the time. We picked a nice spot and walked around the campground. It was quiet, no wind and no rain. However, by midnight there was a lot of wind and we were concerned about trees falling on the RV. We didn’t get a lot of sleep. Thankfully we were on the leeward side of the mountain. The next morning we drove to the Peaks of Otter lodge for breakfast (highly recommended). Because of the Hurricane there were only 6 other people in the restaurant. We had a nice seat by the window with a great view of Abbot Lake and the Peaks of Otter.
Due to the weather it seemed prudent to exit the Parkway and take the freeway South to Asheville, North Carolina. We found many people from Florida had driven North in their RV’s to escape Irma, so finding a camp spot was a challenge. The park we finally stayed at was still partly flooded from Irma’s rain. The next day we tried to drive the last 1/3 of the Parkway but found gates blocking the road. Fallen trees and debris would keep the road closed for some time. We were fortunate to find access to the Blue Ridge Music Center which has music venues, a museum, and local crafts. The Ranger at the Music Center indicated that the road through the Great Smoky Mountains National Park was now open. So we plotted a course to Cherokee, North Carolina.
Part Three of this travel series will take us to a working grist mill that ground corn and grain for the moonshine whiskey business. After Visiting family in Nova Scotia, Oregon travelers Rog, Lin, and Trudy (cat), and Lee decided to make a road trip. This is Part Two of a three-part series that shares a portion of their adventures. Rog and Lin enjoy sharing their experiences. Trudy watches after them . . .

Bronze Birch Borers follow the typical wood borer life cycle. The adults fly, mate, chew a hole, and then deposit eggs that develop into larvae which do the bulk of the damage. While in the wood the larvae pupate into future adults who grow and chew their way out to fly and mate.
There’s nothing hopeful about this picture, and the pruning in late 2016 wasn’t the answer.
The larvae feeds on the cambium (sapwood). This attack separates the bark from the tree. Being the ‘vascular’ part of the tree it, like our blood vessels, the tree no longer has a supply line for nutrients. The tree, that you enjoyed so much throughout the year, dies.

First we tap a stout needle into the tree, near the base. Then we inject a pesticide into the vascular system in multiple places around the base of the tree. Each tree needs to be treated. A treatment lasts for one year.
All of this can be avoided. Call us, don’t let your tree suffer!
