Prolific Artist Draws from Early Dance Influence D. ROD for 98520.LiFE Nancy Eichenberger’s art influence began with her participation in dance from an early age and led her to the art scene which has included quilting, textile art, and doll making. She has even taught classes on character doll making.

Eichenberger then ventured into unique, custom jewelry, often with the primitive appeal and the use of African beads. Her exploritory art forms have evolved into metal work—repousse’ (French term)—at which she seems proficient—as well as her successful venture into assemblage art.

As a 50 plus year Harborite, Nancy says she enjoys the beauty throughout the Harbor. Her contributions to the area include serving as Director of the Domestic Violence Center, and with CCAP (Coastal Community Action Program) for 15 years as a case manager for the unemployed. She then retired from the DSHS (Department of Health and Social Services).

Now Eichenberger participates as an active member of the Grays Harbor art

community. She has been a member of the Harbor Arts Guild for eight years, for whom she creates her custom assemblage and jewelry works. Currently, she contributes her talents to Alder Grove Gallery, in the Aberdeen Art Center.

“With the Aberdeen Art Center,” she says, “artists seem to be coming out of the woodwork” with anticipation of having their work exhibited in a pleasant and professional setting.

Eichenberger has also been part of the art side of the Festival of Lights in Montesano, which is held annually during the holiday season. She has also taken part in other seasonal and holiday gift shows.

Her reasoning for participating in the Harbor’s art community is that she finds the support of her fellow artists an inspiration which she says “challenges” her skills.

“I’ve made several friends through the arts over the years,” she says. “This is what I like most about becoming a full-time artist: I like the involvement with creative people and being able to contribute to that creativity.”

Justin Kautzman wails on his axe while seated on his hog

Local Veteran Justin Kautzman, 29, is a father, college student, and musician who served in the active U.S. Army from 2009-2013 as a medic. Kautzman then served in the Washington National Guard, but was medically discharged following brain surgery.

He’s also given time as a service officer, surgeon, and commander for the local VFW post before stepping down and going back to school to earn a General Studies AA degree.

Kautzman says, “Now [I] study music all day at GHC.” The Grays Harbor College student plays guitar for the college jazz band as well as in the local band Black Shepherd.

He says that Black Shepherd recently won the Raindance Music Festival in Olympia.

Music is now an important aspect of his life. “I try to book shows with multiple and varying artists to spread music appreciation and promote local musicians,” he says.

“When I’m not playing music, I enjoy hanging out with my fiancé and five year-old son,” or riding his Hog—regardless of the weather. Sometimes, he says, all of those things together.

Taste of the Town, now that's Amore' GREGORY E. ZSCHOMLER 98520.LiFE Editor There are a handful of delightful fine dining experiences to be had in Aberdeen’s downtown footprint. However, now that Cortese’s has closed the only Italian option inside the footprint is Amore’ at 116 W. Heron St., but fortunately it is a very good one. Most online review services rate it at four plus (out of five) stars.

Patrons may choose from an assortment of entrees in what has been described as a relaxed and friendly atmosphere. It’s an intimate place, small and simply decorated with a touch of old world charm. An expansion is underway for seasonal outdoor patio seating that will be open soon.

The restaurant, managed by chef Gonzo Mata, serves traditional Northern Italian cuisine—from the freshest of seafood to aged cuts of meat. Dishes include antipasti, rigatoni, spaghetti, specialty pastas, veal, lamb, soups, salads, and a selection of seafood. Meals are served with a generous plate of toasted Italian bread. The madefresh zuppa tuscana soup has been touted as remarkable (and I agree, but this isn't a review).

The pasta and each pizza pie are made fresh daily. The pizza dough is hand tossed and topped with only the freshest ingredients possible. The wine selection includes selections from the Pacific Northwest.

And, good news, now Amore delivers!

Prices range from ten to thirty dollars with

GREGORY E. ZSCHOMLER 98520.LiFE Editor Tinderbox Coffee Roasters, at 113 E Wishkah St., has become a downtown favorite. May 2, 2018 marked the business’s one year anniversary at the Aberdeen location with a celebration that featured drink specials and door prizes provided by other local merchants.

The roaster first opened for business at a Westport site in 2012. Current owners, Chad and Aubrey Baier, bought the business from Nick and Tara Greeley in 2014, relocating to Aberdeen on the Baiers' eighth (2017) wedding anniversary.

After opening it took a few months to catch on as people began to hear about “the new coffee shop downtown.” Now it’s generally a bustling hangout for folks of all ages. A meeting hub, their community boardroom has become popular with several organizations and groups, as have a hand-

ful of cohosted afterhours events. In addition the coffee shop regularly hosts weekend musical performances including a Saturday open mic (see Tinderbox Venue on Facebook).

The establishment creates a variety of roasts which they sell, whole bean or ground to order, and serves eight roasts to choose from each day. Each can be prepared through a variety of methods to make all the popular espresso drinks iced, hot or blended, not to mention smoothies a bottled cold brew. There are also nearly three dozen tea varieties to choose from.

A small, but delightful selection of pastries, made at Cakecakes just next door, are available for purchase as are a selection of breakfast sandwiches. Tinderbox is open from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. daily except for Sundays when they close at 5 p.m. You can follow them on Facebook at the venue page or Tinderbox Coffee Roasters.

Bloom Team on the Scene in Aberdeen RUTH ZSCHOMLER for 98520.LiFE After months of moody weather, it’s exciting to know that spring is really here and summer isn’t far behind. Thanks to Aberdeen Parks & Recreation Department and a dedicated group of volunteers, Aberdeen’s seasonal transition has taken place. Every year at this time, City employees and volunteers spend time hanging flower baskets, planting large aggregate planters throughout town and generally spruceingup the area.

“We order the flowers, hang the baskets, water daily, fertilize weekly and then take them all down in the late summer,” said Stacie Barnum of the Parks Department. The department is in charge of the Aberdeen Flower Program.

According to Barnum, they maintain 150 hanging baskets and more than 100 ground pots throughout Aberdeen. Many local supporters help fund the program as well as volunteer their time to the beautification effort.

This year, along with the clean-up efforts, the planters were weeded and filled with flowers on Aberdeen Beautification Day, May 5. The baskets were hung the following weekend.

The City partners with Bette Worth and Bobbi McCracken from the Aberdeen Beautification Committee. These ladies formed a volunteer group called the Bloom Team and by helping with fundraising, organizing community-wide clean-ups of downtown, and developing the Bloom Team, have been instrumental in making the program what it is today, said Barnum.

“We couldn’t do what we do without the City Parks Department,” said McCracken. It is the partnership between the City of Aberdeen, the community, and volunteers that make it happen.

The first year, there were 90 baskets and 90 planters and the effort has grown in the past five years due largely to the fundraising efforts of Worth and McCracken. In the beginning, they were told that trying to make downtown more beautiful was like “putting lipstick on a pig,” but the pair persisted.

“We heard so much negativity about our community and it made us mad,” said McCracken. “So we decided to do something about it.”

Community partnerships as well as individual donations make the program a success. They are able to raise enough money to provide the supplies and even pay one summer employee each year. One anonymous donor even supplied the green Gator ATV that is used to carry water and supplies.

Beginning June 1, a group of between 16

to 20 volunteers, will deadhead and weed the ground pots and pick up garbage every other Tuesday. They also help plant the ground pots in the spring and help during the fall cleanup.

“The flowers brighten your day,” said McCracken. “They aren’t just for tourists. They are for the whole community.” The pair want people to have pride in their city.

The beautification efforts have paid off. The city has received letters from other places about the flower program asking how they can start something similar in their own communities.

On Beautification Day Tom Sutera, the athletic director at Grays Harbor College, was one of the volunteers cleaning and weeding on Heron Street. Since seventy-five percent of the college athletes come from out of the area, he said, “It’s important to be part of the community that supports us...” He encourages the students to be involved in community service because there is a lot of need. They are involved in 30-35 events throughout the year.

Another volunteer, Mike Hubbard, came from Central Park. The retired 70-year-old said

his wife is a member of the Bloom Team, but this was his first year to help out.

The Bloom Team is always looking for more volunteers, as well. There are three ways to help support this beautification effort: business and organizations can donate, individuals can sponsor a basket in memory of a loved one, and community donations are always welcome. The team meets at 8 a.m. at City Hall, 200E East Market Street, every other Tuesday.

Geocaching: a Goonies Adventure TODD FOX 98520.LiFE I remember fondly the look in my nephews’ eyes when I told them that there are millions of treasures, called geocaches, hidden around the world for them to find. Their eyes sparked at the possibility of having their own Goonies adventure. Their excitement became palpable when I explained that there are over 100 hidden caches in Aberdeen alone. A breath or two later, the questions began to pour in.

Geocaching is simply using GPS technology to search for treasure that other adventurous people have hidden around the world. To begin, you go to the official geocaching website and search

for caches around you, or anywhere you’d like to explore. Caches range in difficulty from “side-ofthe-road� easy to “you better bring the repelling equipment� hard. Some caches are “micro� and contain nothing more than a log book that you sign to prove your adventure. Others might have a hidden ammo box with an assortment of treasure that previous finders have left. The best part is that for anyone with a smart phone it’s free and there is no end to the treasure!

The first cache that my nephews and I found was right off the side of a road in an over-grown turnout. The GPS led us to within 30 feet of where it was hidden, yet despite scavenging the area, we were still coming up empty-handed.

Eventually, a friend who was with us, a seasoned

geocacher, suggested we raise our line of sight.

Sure enough, resting in an oblong nook of a tree knot was our Goonies moment. My nephews’ eyes illuminated with excitement as they removed the fist-full of brush that masked the tiny film container with a log book wrapped inside.

We autographed the log, marked it as found on the website, and laughed at how long it took us to find it. We all knew in that moment that geocaching is something special.

More than ten years have passed since our first find and both of my nephews are now grown up, but finding their first cache will always be a fond memory, and most importantly, the adventure hasn’t ended for any of us!

A collection of cat's eye glass marbles.

DEBBI JENSEN for 98520.LiFE

Marbles: 1) glass spheres of different colors and names such as Cat’s Eye, Peri, Aggie, Steely to name a few. 2) a game played with marbles.

I decided to go on a search for the mighty marble! I found lots of beauties at Game Freaks for $2.99; 24 marbles plus one larger marble as your shooter to a bag.

Unable to decide if I should buy the Blue Jay, Jungle, White Tiger or Unicorn bag (with the original “back in the day” Cat’s Eye)—which were just a few of the many they had—I bought them all.

How to play: One of the players scrapes a three foot circle in the dirt with a stick or on the sidewalk with a piece of chalk. Each player contributes an equal number of marbles, placing them inside the circle. This game can also be played indoors, using a piece of string to “draw” the circle on the floor.

Set the rules before the

game begins. Will you play for “keepsies” or points?

For your first time playing I suggest you play for points (or you’ll likely lose all your marbles) because keepsies means you keep all the marbles you knock out of the circle! Begin by “lagging” which you do by drawing a line and shooting toward it; the kiddo with the marble closest to the line shoots first.

When shooting you must keep one knuckle on the ground, hand outside the circle, and flick the marble with your thumb toward the marbles inside the circle. If a player shoots one or more marble on his or her turn out of the circle they get another turn, until they fail to move any marbles from the circle.

Play then passes to the next shooter. The first player to knock out the majority of marbles is the winner.

Let the games begin!

Please remember the user age of five years young and up.

BOOK NOOK Tippy the Owl, written by local luminary Ericka Corban, is a delightful children’s’ board book your toddler will love. (You'll probably like it, too.)

It’s about a cute, little owl "who who" (hence the name) keeps tipping out of his bed at night until his bunny friend, Hop—after some trial and error and then a sudden epiphany—comes up with a workable solution. The underlying messages are friendship and problemsolving.

The rhyming couplets are fun to read and the book is charmingly illustrated by Gabriela Issa Chacon with bright, kid-friendly color and flair.
