It’s a week like no other. As I write this, the National Weather Service is clocking a temperature of 108 degrees Fahrenheit in Bend—brutal temperatures that appear to be related to the deaths of two men over the weekend. On Wednesday, restrictions that have been in place around the pandemic will be lifted across the state. Renters unable to pay their rent will find it harder to avoid eviction. And businesses, after suffering so much hardship this year, continue to post signs alerting customers about more limited hours due to a lack of staff.

A lot of heavy stuff in the midst of what is at the same time the busy summer recreation season.

While some of the losses we’ve experienced can’t be replaced, I think it’s safe to say that most businesses are starting to see the places where the light comes in.

his week, while the average person hunkers down in front of a fan or in that coveted air-conditioned room, people on the margins in our community are fighting for their lives.

The record heat we are experiencing all around the region became deadly this past weekend for two people living on the literal margins of Bend, who were camped on the stretch of Hunnell Road just off Highway 97.

It is already difficult for this population to fight the myriad number of false misperceptions about the circumstances that lead to being on the streets. Many in our community turn down their nose at houseless people and assume that their life choices alone—and not the high cost of housing, or the widening gap of income inequality, or the dearth of mental health and substance abuse funding—are the reasons someone might find themselves living in a tent or a trailer on the edge of town.

It is a struggle to educate and fund a solution to this issue and harder still to overcome the malaise that it is “someone else’s problem.”

However, with the increasing visibility of the houseless community, several individuals have taken the almost incomprehensible position of making the lives of our houseless neighbors even harder.

Spend some time with those living on our streets and the horror stories

you’ll hear may be less about the choices they themselves are forced to make and more about the horrifying treatment they endure by those with privilege. Volunteers and those without homes tell us how they’ve been subject to eggs being thrown at them; to rocks being thrown at them; to people driving through and “blowing coal” on the dwellings they call home.

At least one local has even taken to TikTok with videos of him trolling through the Hunnell camp, lamenting the mess from the comfort of an air-conditioned vehicle.

In the midst of a massive heat wave, this is how some Central Oregonians are spending their time. In our ongoing boot/slipper series, we give our biggest boot to the people who, rather than offering an ounce of comfort to those suffering, offer more discomfort instead. It is depressing to hear these stories of adding insult to injury, and as much as we’d like to say, “This is not what Bend is,” unfortunately, it is. People are dying while others are collecting likes on social media for trolling them.

What we are seeing in increasing numbers is not a result of a lack of effort on the part of countless volunteers and agencies who have been sounding the alarm on this crisis for years. The very least—and that’s a very low bar—those not involved can do is to not make things worse.

Over a six-year period (2014-2020) library staff, consultants and architects had conversations with over 6,000 community members to settle on their final recommendation for the bond that was favorably voted on by our community this past November. I’m unclear as to why all of this diligent and responsible work is now being questioned. It seems that some do not like the new north Bend location, however this will actually be more accessible to many of our friends from Tumalo, Redmond and Sisters.

To reassess the location and function of this central location, would we need to delay construction of a much-needed solution by another six years?

The responsible work was already done and included conversations with regional realtors and the City of Bend’s economic development staff. After all of the research and touring, library staff and the board agreed that the 12 acres at Highway 20 and Robal Road met the vision for the future Central Library for many reasons.

The planned location provides convenient access off two major arteries (Hwy 20 and 97) and is in close proximity to schools and residential areas. It is in a fast-growing area of the county with more residential, commercial, schools, and retail planned and is in close proximity to shopping, retail, public safety and fire services.

In addition, the Library studied and considered the option of creating many smaller neighborhood libraries instead of one larger, centrally located building and expanding/enhancing the existing libraries. After much research and discussion the board and staff decided against additional small, neighborhood libraries for many reasons. At the top of the list are cost to operate and staff and the lack of

robust solutions for services that would benefit those small libraries.

The Library is working with the Oregon Department of Transportation to improve access on the roadways and with COIC/CTE on creating convenient bus routes that would serve all of our citizens across the county.

The Central Library project will install nature paths, walking paths, and bike paths for different access points to and from the library. The library is continuing to reach out to organizations and partners across the County to develop the most comprehensive plan for access and service for all people in Deschutes County.

It seems to me that we just need to get out of their way and let them complete the proposed and accepted plan so we can sooner enjoy the results of all their hard work.

MEGA-DAIRY-FUELED WATER CRISIS The Guardian recently reported on the mega-dairy fueled water crisis in Arizona. It got me thinking about the future of Oregon’s water supplies and small-scale family farms, especially as many Oregon counties face rapidly advancing drought conditions. Right now, Oregon state agencies are considering a permit application for a new 30,000 cow mega-dairy in Eastern Oregon. This facility would use the same amount of water as our community of Bend—while bringing a host of public health threats to nearby communities. Is green lighting a water-guzzling

factory farm really what we should be considering as nearly 42% of Oregon’s counties have requested drought status?

Just last week our own Deschutes County Commission asked Gov. Brown to grant the county drought status. Large portions of Eastern and Central Oregon are facing a similar water crisis. It is clear Oregon is facing an alarming dry season that requires water conservation. Permitting a new mega-dairy would do the opposite.

Arizona’s situation gives us a preview of what could happen here if we continue to allow large, industrial factory farms into the state: dried up wells and aquifers and disappearing family farms. This isn’t the future I want for Oregon. Instead Gov. Brown needs to use her power to deny the Easterday mega-dairy permit. Visit http:// fwaction.us/BrownInd to sign your name and urge Gov. Brown to deny this disastrous mega-dairy permit and protect Oregon’s water resources and family farms now and for years to come.

ONE STEP CLOSER TO PROTECTING OREGON RIVERS I am so happy to see that Senator Wyden’s River Democracy Act recently had a hearing and is one step closer to the finish line. I have been a rafter since the early 1970s and have long understood the importance of rivers and the need for their protection.

Before I started rafting, I always loved the water. As a young child, my cousins and I would swim, throw rocks and hike up many rivers and streams simply

because they were there. From a young age we understood that these areas were important for wildlife, and that they provided clean water for our homes and our communities. That has become even clearer in my adult life.

I’ve been fortunate to have many opportunities to float rivers and experience scenery that you can only see from the water–you’re away from roads, with only one way in and one way out. But I recognize that not just those streams deserve protection, because in the blink of an eye rivers change, communities change and abuses can happen. It’s better to protect what we know is valuable now, rather than try to bring it back from the brink later.

While I am getting older and do not float as often as I used to, I still love to visit and sit along a river or stream just for solitude. Regardless of how you enjoy these places, they are so special and future generations of Oregonians deserve to experience them as well.

Legislating Child Care WWW.BENDSOURCE.COM / JULY 1, 2021 / BEND’S INDEPENDENT VOICE

The high desert is also a childcare desert. Rep. Jack Zika tells the Source Weekly how he’s working to address the issue through legislation

By Jack Harvel

C

entral Oregon has a short supply and high cost of child care. Oregon state Rep. Jack Zika (R-OR54) is trying to ease the burden on parents with House Bill 3073, which consolidates early learning services into a single entity and declares the shortage an emergency.

Source Weekly: Could you explain the challenges families face when seeking child care here in Central Oregon?

Jack Zika: We consider it a child care desert, because there’s only a spot for two out of every 10 children that need it, and then it’s unaffordable. If you have a couple of kids, you’re looking at $2-3,000 in child care per month— that’s a tuition payment for college. So, we realize that the state needs to focus more on our pre-K kids, and the providers, parents, children, we need to provide more resources, we need to have better access to affordable child care. In the pandemic we had CARES Act funds, about $78 million, and the Early Learning Division, which is a division out of the Department of Education, had a really hard time getting those funds out because they didn’t have enough people. They didn’t have enough of their

Providers feel abandoned, because there’s so many different childcare programs that we have…, but they’re all housed in different departments.

—Rep. Jack Zika own resources. So Representative [Karin] Power [D-OR41] and myself, this is about a year and a half that we’ve been working on this with the Department of Human Services, the DOE, ELD, Oregon Health Authority, child care advocates, the governor’s child care cabinet, and Childcare Council, and then they had a taskforce on child care.

SW: And how would this address the shortage?

JZ: It establishes DELC, the Department of Early Learning and Care. When we had the CARES Act funds they couldn’t get them out. Rep. Power and I worked all summer trying to help them get the resources, get the people those funds to make sure that their providers weren’t closing. There’s been a lot of businesses that were closing, including these childcare facilities. And they weren’t closing temporarily; they were going to close forever. We wanted to make sure that we had those because during the pandemic, because we found out that the essential workers for the essential workers are the day cares. If they can’t have some place to take their

child to, then they can’t go to work. So, we really needed to focus on that there as a priority of the state that should be starting to look at that. It’s a priority of a lot of Central Oregonians and Oregonians in general, but they were really worried about where to take your kids when there’s not enough child care providers, and when you find one it’s too expensive. Another thing that the 3073 does is it expands the employment-related child care funds, and who is eligible for it. It tries to keep that family portion payment low, because right now they’re low because of the pandemic, but they’re going to eventually go back up. This attempt on keeping those payments low, so people aren’t spending their whole paycheck on child care.

SW: And looking over the bill, there seems to be an emphasis on education. Is there a shift going on in childcare more towards early education for school readiness, rather than just day care?

JZ: That’ll be something that we look at once the department is established.

There’s a study bill within there to try to figure out where we go from here. Other

states have done universal pre-K, which is not mandatory, of course, it’s optional, and then we’d try to keep it that way. But what do parents want for their children?

Should they be ready for school? How many words can they say before they get to kindergarten? Do they know their letters? That’s part of the focus of the department is where do we go from there, and is the universal pre-K a part of that.

SW: This was just one of the child care bills you’ve been working on this session. What are some of the other cracks in the child care system that can be approached through legislation?

JZ: So one of the big ones that I did was 3109, and that was something I’ve been working on since I was a planning commissioner for the City of Redmond. That was saying that the cities cannot charge more in permit fees or business fees or SDCs [system development charges] than any other business, because a lot of our cities, including Bend and Redmond (however, Bend and Redmond have since then fixed a lot of it) has charged the transportation SDCs that were tremendously expensive. In

Rep. Jack Zika of Redmond proposed the creation of the Department of Early Learning and Care in House Bill 3073. The bill consolidates services from several early learning programs into one agency and declares a childcare shortage emergency in Oregon.

Bend, $50,000 for transportation SDCs. Nobody can afford to open up a business if you have to spend $50,000 in fees. In Redmond it was an unconditional use fee. And that was $7,000—but why do you need to spend $7,000 to open a day care rather than opening up a frozen yogurt shop? It shouldn’t have been that way. Redmond took away that non-conditional use fee, and that was something that I worked on when I was in the planning commission. Bend fixed the transportation fee, so it’s a lot lower. What this bill does, it says that the city cannot charge more than they would in a regular business, and it makes an allowable use in commercial and in residential— and even parts of industrial, as long as it’s not heavy industrial. Les Schwab has the commercial center over there, that’s industrial land, so they would be able to have a day care facility. And then also, we amended it to allow it in rural areas, co-located with a school or church or some other preschool. So, if there’s already one of those in existence, they can co-locate a day care in there without any questions asked, without any additional steps where they weren’t allowed before. So that is all passed. And that was a big bill for child care for providers to eliminate red tape—to eliminate

those barriers to entry to enter into that business, that one was a huge, huge bill for day care.

SW: Is there anything you’d want to add?

JZ: This is a huge step for the state to start investing in our kids when they’re this young. Providers feel abandoned, because there’s so many different childcare programs that we have: Head Start, employment-related day care, Baby Promise, Preschool Promise, but they’re all housed in different departments.

That’s why when we had these discussions we had for over a year and a half now, with DHS, OHA, DOE, ELD, we decided that we needed to take all of those programs and consolidate them and put them under one department.

And that was the Department of Early Learning and Care. So that removes that uncertainty of who to ask questions and where to find resources for providers and parents. Now there’ll be one place that they call when it comes to child care and that is so important, and it makes everybody’s life a lot easier. And within that consolidation of those programs, we actually opened up more resources and so we’ll be able to help more families. I think this bill is such a big step for child care.

En Bend, los centros para refrescarse se encuentran en First Presbyterian Church (iglesia Prebisteriana) sobre la calle 9, la cual estará abierta los fines

de semana y Shepherd’s House, ubicada sobre la calle 2, que abrirá entre semana de 12-5 p.m. hasta el día 4 de julio. Voluntarios también irán al área de Hunnel Road, en donde muchos acampan o estacionan RVs, para así auxiliar a aproximadamente 90 personas que se ubican allí.

“Una de las cosas con los centros para refrescarse, la cual creo es de las más difíciles, es que la gente no quiere salir de su casa, existe allí una sensación de seguridad, existe el miedo que se roben sus pertenencias o de que se lleve sus pertenencias el dueño del terreno, dijo Colleen Thomas, presidenta de Homeless Leadership Coalition. “El tener la oportunidad de ver a las personas donde viven, como en esta estación para refrescarse aquí, (en la calle Hunnel) es muy importante.

Dos centros para refrescarse están abiertos en Redmond, uno en la esquina de la calle NE 17 y en Greenwood, los cuales estarán abiertos hasta el miércoles de 2-6 p.m. y hay otro que se encuentra en Mountain View Fellowship sobre la calle SW 35 que estará abierto de 12-5 p.m. hasta el día viernes. El centro para

refrescarse en Madras se encuentra en Madras Free Methodist Church (iglesia metodista) sobre la calle Adams y está abierto de 12-5 p.m. hasta el 4 de julio.

Estos centros posiblemente podrían salvar vidas durante la ola de calor, la cual es presuntamente un factor en la muerte de dos personas que murieron en Hunnel Road, aunque no ha sido confirmado por el médico legista del condado de Deschutes al momento que se escribió esta nota.

“Para aquellas personas que no tienen un lugar donde albergarse durante el día, la opción de tener un centro para refrescarse esperamos les brinde una sensación de alivio y seguridad,” dijo Thomas.

“Hemos estado monitoreando el clima y trabajando de cerca con miembros y agencias de la comunidad para elaborar un plan para ofrecer lugares seguros y refrescantes para las personas al tener este latente calor excesivo. La oportunidad de abrir estos centros para refrescarse es un paso hacia la dirección correcta y continuaremos abogando por ofrecer opciones a largo plazo y durante todo el año para los habitantes desprotegidos.”

Two Dead at Hunnell Campsite

Two people died, presumably from the extreme heat, in the area popular for houseless campers Sunday

By Jack Harvel

WWW.BENDSOURCE.COM / JULY 1, 2021 / BEND’S INDEPENDENT VOICE

T

wo men died on Sunday at the camp on Hunnell Road as Bend surpassed its highest June temperature in recorded history, and likely will surpass the all-time record high of 106 degrees on Tuesday. The two men were Joseph Davis and Alonzo Boardman, known as Joe and Lonnie, and are suspected of succumbing to the heat by the volunteers who work closely with the houseless population on Hunnell. The Deschutes County Medical Examiner did not respond to our requests for more information.

Volunteers describe Davis as an older man who used a wheelchair. He had likely lived at the camp on Hunnell for less than a week and was living at the camp on Emerson Avenue until it was cleared by the City on June 23. People who knew him said that he had a great sense of humor.

Volunteers on Hunnell spoke highly of Broadman, saying he was popular with other people living there and kept his tent, and later his trailer, very neat, they said.

“He was like an uncle and brother to folks around here,” said Jon Riggs, founder of local nonprofit Helpers, formed as a nonprofit in December. “We do this thing where people donate trailers and we make them livable, and then offer them to people. We actually got Lonnie a trailer a couple months ago.”

Boardman was discovered in the trailer on Sunday afternoon. Central Oregon Peacekeepers Founder Luke Richter told OPB that when the body was discovered it was already too late. “It was basically a microwave in there,” he said.

Cooling stations were set up at the campsite on Saturday. Water, Gatorade and food was distributed by volunteers at cold-water spraying stations.

“The cooling shelter was here yesterday (Sunday), I just don’t think it was in full force,” said Tyler Gartland, treasurer of the medical support nonprofit Central Oregon Street Aid. “Peacekeepers reached out to us, asking if we could come today, especially after the two deaths yesterday, so I sent out a text message to all of our volunteers, and we were actually able to rally together and will probably be here the next three days.”

After the deaths, donations flowed into the camps and cooling centers. On Hunnell volunteers said they should have enough water to at least last through the heat wave. Their biggest needs as of Monday were ice, neck gaiters and fruit.

“One of the things that’s great about Central Oregon is that we collaborate and we’re a community, we come together when there’s a need, and

that’s service providers and mutual aid groups, but it’s also the community as a whole. The people of Central Oregon really see a need, there’s a call for help, and people show up,” said Colleen Thomas, chair of the Homeless Leadership Coalition.

Though many people came out to support the camp, hostile people have also been disrupting volunteer efforts. Riggs said people have thrown eggs and rocks, have driven aggressively down the road.

Some have also posted videos online of themselves disparaging campers.

“Some dude was driving down the road while he was videotaping this saying all kinds of profanity and then he posted it,” Larry Patton, who lives on Hunnell, said.

The extreme three-digit heat should ease a little bit by Wednesday, but not by much and forecasted daytime highs don’t drop below 90 degrees for the next two weeks.

Beating The Heat

Cooling centers in Bend, Redmond and Madras provide a place for unhoused people to escape the blistering heat

By Jack Harvel

O

n June 25 Deschutes County encouraged locals to take precautions against the extreme wave of heat cooking the Pacific Northwest. Temperatures reached as high as 108 degrees on Sunday and forecasts predict daytime highs over 100 until Wednesday.

The county asked people to avoid the outdoors between 3-7pm, the hottest part of the day, something unhoused people have a much harder time doing.

A handful of cooling centers for houseless people started operating over the weekend, made possible by the Central Oregon Homeless Leadership Coalition, Shepherd’s House, Jefferson County Faith-Based Network and churches including First Presbyterian of Bend, Mountain View Fellowship of Redmond and the Madras Free Methodist Church.

“No one person or service provider can do this work alone,” said Lindsey Stailing, Vice-Chair of Homeless Leadership Coalition in a press release.

“The HLC thanks partners from across the region for collaborating to provide these lifesaving resources to our unhoused neighbors.”

In Bend the cooling centers are at First Presbyterian on Ninth Street, which will be open on the weekends, and Shepherd’s House on Second Street will cover the weekdays noon-5 pm until July 4. Volunteers will also go to the area around Hunnell Road, where many camp or park RVs, to directly aid the 90 or so people there.

“One of the things with cooling centers that I think is really hard is people don’t want to leave their home, there’s a sense of security, there’s fear of whether their stuff will be stolen or taken away by a property owner,” said Colleen Thomas, Homeless Leadership Coalition chair.

“Having an opportunity of meeting people where they’re at, like this cooling station here (on Hunnel) is really important.”

Two cooling centers are also active in Redmond, one on the corner of NE 17th Street and Greenwood that will operate until Wednesday from 2-6 pm and another at Mountain View Fellowship on SW 35th Street that will be open from 12-5 pm until Friday. The cooling center in Madras is operating out of the Madras Free Methodist Church on S. Adams Street from

noon-5 pm through the Fourth of July.

The centers potentially could save lives during the heat wave, which is allegedly a factor in the death of two people who died on Hunnel Road, though that hadn’t been confirmed by the Deschutes County Medical Examiner’s Office by press time.

“For those with no place to shelter during the day, the option of a cooling center will hopefully bring a sense of

relief and safety,” Thomas said. “We have been monitoring the weather and working closely with community partners and agencies to come up with a plan to provide safe and cool places for individuals with the impending excessive heat. The opportunity to open these cooling centers is a step in the right direction and we will continue to advocate for yearround and long-term options for our vulnerable neighbors.”

No More COVID… Restrictions

COVID restrictions in Oregon will be lifted on June 30 regardless of the vaccination rate

By Jack Harvel they emphasized that they believed Oregon Democrats used the emergency declaration to increase their own power.

“While there is really no need to wait until June 30, it’s great news that Oregonians will finally be able to get back to normal life. Businesses and customers won’t have to worry about vaccine passports anymore. Oregonians should not forget the gross abuse of power that has taken place by Democrats over the last year that locked kids out of the classroom, devastated small businesses, and threw people out of work,” said Senate Republican Leader Fred Girod in a press release.

The governor’s order will effectively end the original Stay Home, Save Lives order and the subsequent orders that stemmed from it. Mask mandates will be lifted, county risk levels scrapped and any business restrictions will expire, but the order also extends the COVID emergency declaration.

staffing flexibility, Oregon’s access to FEMA, enhanced SNAP benefits, and other federal aid, to allow the continued operation of certain emergency child care providers through the summer, unemployment insurance claim processing, and more,” a press release from the governor’s office said.

ov. Kate Brown signed an executive order on June 25 saying the state would lift all statewide COVID-19 restrictions by June 30 even if the 70% adult vaccination benchmark is not met.

Currently 65.7% of Oregonians over 16 are vaccinated or have received their first dose of a COVID-19 vaccine.

Lifting state restrictions wouldn’t interfere with individual counties’ ability to maintain their own restrictions, but the state will shift its focus toward recovery from the economic impacts of COVID. “I’m proud of our collective efforts to vaccinate more than 2.3 million Oregonians. It is because of this success that we can move Oregon forward, and into the next chapter of this pandemic. We are ready,” Brown said in a statement.

“We should all take pride in the work we have done to bring us to this moment.

The efforts underway to close our vaccine equity gap and reach every Oregonian with information and a vaccine have definitely helped bring us this far.”

The lifting of restrictions was met positively by the Oregon GOP, although

Evictions Return

Landlords will be allowed to evict their tenants again starting in July, but several tools can help keep tenants in their homes

11

By Jack Harvel Courtesy David Jackmanson

“There is a fundamental mismatch between the arbitrary date of July 1st and the ability to effectively promote rental assistance programs and process applications.”

The OERAP is open to anyone who had lost income as a result of COVID-19 or used unemployment insurance, makes 80% of Area Median Income and demonstrates a risk for housing instability or houselessness.

People can apply for rental assistance at oerap.oregon.gov, and can find useful information before applying at

“While historic rental assistance is flowing through our communities, the scale of need is unprecedented and community-based organizations face sizeable capacity challenges in keeping up with the surge of applications for relief.”

— Margaret Salazar neighborimpact.org/covid-rent-relief.

The fund will remain active until 2022 or until there is no more money.

“For the first time, renters can access rental assistance through a statewide, centralized application portal,” Salazar said in a press release.

“Together with our community-based partners, we are prioritizing resources toward our most vulnerable households to help keep Oregonians in their homes during these challenging times.”

Eviction notices will be finding tenants once again after more than a year since the Oregon legislature placed a moratorium on evictions. The moratorium was put in place to avoid an eviction crisis after many lost their income during the pandemic, and to avoid spreading the virus.

Landlords could also recoup lost rent through the Landlord Compensation Fund, that will pay them 80% of the backpay if the landlord forgives the other 20%.

The federal eviction moratorium is less comprehensive than Oregon’s, Denis Theriault, spokesman for the Joint Office of Homeless Services, told Willamette Week. The federal moratorium

requires tenants to write a declaration of financial hardship and deliver it to their landlord, and has seen different results in courts across the country.

It’s not clear if the end of the moratorium will result in a massive uptick in evictions or if the extended grace period for repayment will encourage landlords not to evict their tenants.

regon’s eviction moratorium expires on June 30, a full month before the federal eviction moratorium ends. Oregonians are expected to pay their July rent in full or risk eviction, while they have until the end of February 2022, to repay any rent that they failed to pay between April 1, 2020 and June 30.

A 60-day moratorium extension will prevent evictions for people who can prove they have applied to receive some of the $204 million allocated to the Oregon Emergency

PHOTO CONTEST WINNERS SHARE THEIR SLICE OF CENTRAL OREGON

This spring, Source Art Director Darris Hurst served as one of a handful of judges in the “Your Happy Place” Central Oregon Photo Contest held by High Desert Frameworks. Local photographers were asked to submit photos showing a place they consider their “happy place” in Central Oregon.

Among over 100+ submissions, a series of finalists emerged. On the following pages we’ve printed the winners in several top categories, along with the runners-up. Enjoy this peek into some of the most stunning places our region has to offer.

Judge Select Winner: STEPHEN PETERS - ANCIENT ARCH OVER REYNOLDS POND

From the artist: "I just “discovered” Reynolds Pond in Alfalfa early this year and have found it to be a photographic mecca. Its islands of wispy foliage provide sumptuous mirror reflections when the water is calm, and give the place a bayou-like vibe. I have photographed misty sunrises there with geese providing a chorus of entertaining clattering.

I even shot the recent total lunar eclipse there, which revealed TWO eclipsed Moons – one in the sky and the other its striking reflection in the water.

I love Milky Way nightscape photography and knew this pond would be a great place to get a Milky Way panorama in the spring, when it arches low over the horizon. I determined where I’d need to position the camera so that the arch of the Milky Way would “mirror” the curve in the pond’s shoreline contour in this roughly 180-degree perspective. Then at around 4:30 a.m. on March 12 I took a series of nine 20-second, vertically oriented images, starting at one end of the Milky Way and rotating the camera about 20 degrees for each subsequent shot. The nine images were then stitched together digitally using software to create the final panorama.

I look forward to many more serene mornings, placid evenings, and starry nights at my newest “happy place” - Reynolds Pond. "

Popular Vote Winner CODY CLARK - SMITH ROCK SUNRISE 13

Peer Select Winner: NIKOLAUS WILLIAMS - MT BACHELOR SUNSET

From the artist: "I actually managed to capture this one with my drone.

I was randomly flying around the Soda Creek area, and all of a sudden stumbled across this scene. Knowing how special it was, I stopped immediately and took several bracketed shots. This is my happy place, especially when visiting after the busy tourist season. The changing weather late in the year creates some really gorgeous scenes. And less people means I usually have the whole area to myself!"

VOLUME 25 ISSUE 26 / JULY 1, 2021 / THE SOURCE WEEKLY

From the artist: "Smith Rock has always been one of my favorite places in central Oregon ever since my first visit there. Photographing landscapes is a bit of a departure for me; I typically photograph wildlife, and the wealth of wildlife combined with the amazing scenery and views is what makes Smith Rock such an amazing place for me. I wanted a Smith Rock photo to call my own, but I wanted something a little different than the typical views and scenes that most visitors capture. I decided to try my luck at sunrise, and I got lucky with the awesome colors that were in the sky that day. Looking at my photo always reminds me of some of the evening hikes I would take, admiring the eagles in the sky and the otters in the river."

June has been huge for new music. Lorde has officially resurfaced (I’ve heard that means seven extra weeks of summer) with her latest hit, “Solar Power,” showing the New Zealand pop sensation stepping in new directions on her upcoming album of the same name. Tyler, The Creator, is back with “Call Me If You Get Lost,” where the rapper revives the nostalgia of a DJ Drama Gangsta Grillz mixtape—only this is an album, and it’s definitely Tyler’s vision from top to bottom as he channels the “In My Mind” era of Pharrell. Japanese Breakfast also dropped a contender for album of the year with “Jubilee,” a record that is both a grand and poppy experience, where Michelle Zauner hones in on joy and colorful feeling.

June was also the real start of more live music emerging around town, along with tour announcements from plenty of traveling guests that will make their way to Central Oregon. It’s exciting to see shows popping up all over again (Shakey Graves at The Athletic Club, anyone?) and to know that our local musicians finally have the chance to play the gigs we’ve all been missing. And with capacity and mask restrictions lifting at the end of June, there will only be more happenings on the music front.

For now, while we all push through this heatwave and remain locked in the AC (if you have any, that is) here are some other highlights in music from June you can throw on the home playlist.

Dreaming Slow EP - Signal Bath x Witch Eyes Bend producers/musicians Shane Thomas (Signal Bath) and Colten Tyler Williams (Witch Eyes) joined forces this month for a collab EP that stays true to its name, with dreamy beats that are perfect for the summer. The project is a lo-fi approach to electronic music, utilizing drums and bass in sweet arrangements. This is a good tape to unwind to if you’re looking to declutter your mind and just enjoy the moment.

“Earth to Stupid” - Lupine The latest song from Bend’s Ella Peterson is all about the butterflies that come when you’re crushing on someone, and as she said over email, the track came “just in time for Pride!” The overall feel of the song is bright and summery. It speaks to trusting your heart and diving into the love that is right for you.

Courtesy Lupine “Don’t pretend that it doesn’t make your heart pound. ‘Cause when she says my name like it’s the very first time, it’s my favorite sound,” sings Peterson.

This soulful cut released by Portland duo Picante (Mia Lentz, Zac Bron) will no-doubt be tugging at your heartstrings. “Strawberries and Cream” is a smooth and mellow song that features a brilliant performance by José Guadalupe Flores on saxophone, along with the vocals of Lentz who croons about that moment when one gets bit by the love bug. The single is for the duo’s upcoming LP titled “Up All Night.” While a different pace than Courtesy Picante many of their past releases, “Strawberries and Cream” is a welcome and successful switch-up. Overall, it’s a great song that is as lush and sweet as the dessert it’s named after.

Artist Fact Sheet: Josephine Antoinette

T

he last Fact Sheet I put together about a visiting act was in December of 2019 for an Andrew Marlin show that eventually would get canceled. That’s way too long. But now, bands and artists are beginning to make their way back through Central Oregon, lining up tour dates as live music starts to awaken.

On July 5, The Suttle Lodge will host Josephine Antoinette as part of its free Big Lawn Series that will continue to run on Mondays throughout the summer, all the way to Sept. 6. Antoinette is a Northwest native who has polished her voice by singing with area favorites including LaRhonda Steele and Sonny Hess. Her stylings of R&B, soul, jazz and blues will be a perfect pairing with the backdrop of Suttle Lake. This is a show that will blow you away with vocal talent and make for one smooth summer night.

Josephine Antoinette will groove on the Suttle Big Lawn.

Ron Artis II is an American musician/singer-songwriter, who’s music spans the spectrum from blues, jazz, flamenco, and rock/r&b/soul.

JOSEPH

with Special Guest ISABEAU WAIA’U WALKER + COLE-BAKER-CLARK COLLECTIVE Joseph is an American Pop/Folk/Rock band from Portland, signed to ATO records. Joseph was formed when Natalie Closner Schepman, who had been pursuing a solo singer-songwriter career, recruited her younger twin sisters Meegan and Allison to join her on vocals for a new project. Touring nationally, jumping into the spotlight at major festivals, and receiving critical acclaim, Joseph weaves complicated harmonies with lovely hooks and weaves. Having recently sold out the Tower Theatre just before the covid shut down, Billie Eilesh recently gave them a shout as a featured talent on her father/daughter music podcast!

JULY

CHERRY POPPIN’ DADDIES with Special Guest NOVACANE

In the past few years Cherry Poppin’ Daddies have become the kind of band that you would want to book if you were throwing a soiree at the Gatsby mansion. Penning elegant, lush, pitch perfect arrangements of much of the great American songbook, from Cole Porter to Frank Sinatra, the Daddies have surprised many- likely familiar with them from the early 90’s- whose limited exposure to the band undoubtedly consists of an image of spray painted vans careening across the US as an iconoclastic, misfit part of an already marginalized punk/ska scene.

Stay Cool and Celebrate the 4th

CULTURE

Whether you’re new here or you’re just looking for a day out, these are the things to put on your Independence Day radar

By Isa Hammons and Nicole Vulcan

37

W

ith weather on the Fourth of July promising to be hot and sunny—but not quite as scorching as the temperatures we’re experiencing as we write this—the name of the game for this Central Oregon Independence Day is, hopefully, staying cool and calm.

With this week’s heat wave, the City of Bend has declared a state of emergency that makes shooting off any kind of fireworks illegal and subject to a fine of up to $750.

Last week, on June 25, a firework that appeared to be illegal in Oregon set the trees in a baseball field in northeast Bend ablaze, fire officials said. Even with the concurrent drought, the City in its most recent newsletter is encouraging people to show their patriotism by spraying water hoses instead of shooting fireworks. People can report illegal fireworks by email by emailing fireworks@bendoregon.gov.

Meanwhile, if you’re new here or you’re just not quite sure what your 4th of July plans include, let these upcoming events give you something to look forward to.

Fireworks at Vince Genna Stadium July 3 Enjoy Independence Day before the 4th even begins when the Bend Elks Baseball Club plays the Yakima Valley Pippins—complete with a fireworks show! This is one of two legal shows planned in Bend for the July 4th

weekend. Game starts at 6:35pm. Info at bendelks.com.

SUPs and Pups at Elk Lake Bring your dog and your paddleboard and race for glory at Elk Lake on July 3. More information on this week’s Source Picks page.

4th of July Parade and Fireworks in Redmond Bend leaders canceled the annual Pet Parade due to concerns around COVID-19, but Redmond’s Chamber of Commerce and Visitor’s Bureau managed to get its act together and planned the return of its annual 4th of July Parade on Redmond’s SW 6th St. Expect the traditional floats and candy throwing… all the trappings of a classic 4th, with a theme of “Sea to Shining Sea.” The parade starts at 10am along SW 6th Street, from Greenwood to Forest Avenue.

Later in the evening, at dusk, catch the Redmond Fireworks Display at the Deschutes County Fair & Expo Center. If you want to park there, you’ll need a free parking permit. Find them at Eqwine Wine Bar, Art & Music, Herringbone Bookstore, Yo Wild and the SCP Redmond Hotel. More information is at visitredmondoregon.com.

Fireworks at Pilot Butte The only legal fireworks show in Bend on the 4th of July is visible from most parts of the city. The fireworks at Pilot Butte begin at dusk, around 10 pm.

On this Fourth of July, celbrate safely without personal fireworks.

Long Tall Eddy at River’s Place The live music game at River’s Place has been strong of late—and that tradition continues for its July 4 festivities.

Catch the live music from 3 to 5pm.

Summer Sessions at Worthy Brewing Indubious, the venerable reggae band, plays from 7 to 9pm at Worthy Brewing on the 4th—and it just so happens that Worthy is a pretty good place to see the (legal and planned) fireworks happening at Pilot Butte.

Sunriver 4th of July Festive Photos Those in Sunriver can take part in the Village’s Festive Photos event. For $15, participants receive a bag of swag and a list of places to take photos around The Village at Sunriver.

SOURCE SUGGESTS THESE BOOKS

By Tom Beans and Aaron Akbar, Dudley’s Bookshop Cafe

Three great summer reads Books for your radar this summer

“The Wolf and the Woodsman”

by Ava Reid

A ruthless world that involves magic with an all-too-heavy cost, as well as the complexities of intersection and belonging. I loved the way folklore was seamlessly interwoven within the story, and the way characters’ true motivations were revealed as a slow unfolding. It was by no means a light read, but there are plenty of silver linings to be found. I love the magic system and world building and was left wanting more. I hope this is just the first taste of Reid’s world and that we can see more soon. -AA

“Razorblade Tears”

by S.A. Cosby

“Blacktop Wasteland” was my favorite read of 2020 and “Razorblade Tears” will be right up there for 2021. I finished the second half of the book in one night-long bender. Cosby writes characters that remind me of Richard Stark’s classic antihero, Parker, but only if he had a conscience and a family he loved deeply. With themes of race, LGBTQ issues and economic injustice, Cosby is the best crime writer of this young decade. (releases July 6) -TB

“Heartbeat of Trees”

by Peter Wohlleben

I was a bit wary because this book could have very easily been a recapitulation of the wonderful ideas in “The Hidden Life of Trees.” What surprised me though was the actual lack of overlap between the two. The science was just as compelling but in a wholly different direction. While “The Hidden Life of Trees” was all about the relationship of trees with each other, “Heartbeat of Trees” involves the relationship of trees and humans. I never would have guessed how much overlap there was, and how much our senses and the senses of trees dance with each other. I would recommend it to anyone who loves the likes of Merlin Sheldrake, Robert Macfarlane, Robin Wall Kimmerer and Suzanne Simard. -AA

A New First Friday Tradition

COBLA launches The Colors Store to showcase local creativity

By Nicole Vulcan 41

And that’s The Color Store. So, every First Friday of the month, we’re downtown, and we’re open until 9 at night.

SW: Besides the cost, are there other reasons you wanted to do this?

RW: Just to bring more diversity to the First Friday Art Walks. It’s a wonderful event, lots of things to see, lots of people to meet, and we just wanted to bring more diversity and show people of colors’ creativity.

SW: Who will be there this month, and what can people can expect from the art that’ll be there?

RW: Last month we featured an Asian-American artist. This month, we haven’t locked in our main featured artist, but we will have art there and other creative products from creatives in Central Oregon.

It’s a wonderful event, lots of things to see, lots of people to meet, and we just wanted to bring more diversity and show people of colors’ creativity.

—Riccardo Waites Source Weekly: Describe The Colors Store and what that entails.

Riccardo Waites: The Colors Store is a store for creatives of color to be able to sell their art, and creative products at the First Friday Art Walks. It is virtually impossible for people of color to afford actual brick and mortars downtown, so we wanted to have something that these creatives of color could be included in.

SW: So there’s one main artist who has a display, and then you have other artisans selling things too?

RW: Correct. And as we grow, we will have more artists to feature, but for now we’re trying to save artists for each walk.

SW: What was the response to the first one?

RW: It was amazing! Where we set up, we’re right next to the stages,

so there’s a band that plays from 6 to 8, and we’re 30 feet from the stage. People are always there, they’re listening to music, dancing or just watching, and it was a good time.

The band ended at 8 and The Colors Store actually DJ’d from 8 to 9 and played some oldschool soul and people stayed around and walked through The Colors Store—it was an amazing time.

SW: We’re just starting to get back to a time when we can do these things—interacting among each other in person. What does it feel like to be able to bring your organization out into the public in this way after so many pandemic restrictions?

RW: It’s an amazing feeling and it also gives me anxiety. I want to see things succeed and I want to continue to grow, right? So as we bring events, with the restrictions being let down, I’m really excited for the public to get a chance to be—there’s lots of education coming, lots of assistance for people of color who feel that racism and biases being put on them. I’m really

irst Friday is a local tradition that’s just getting back on its feet in downtown Bend (and Redmond, too), inviting people to browse downtown shops and see local art on display. June brought the first First Friday of the year, with the next event scheduled for this week, on July 2.

At the June event, The Central Oregon Black Leaders Assembly set up the inaugural edition of The Colors Store, offering an outlet for local creatives of color to sell and display their works in downtown Bend. COBLA partnered with the Downtown Bend Business Association to launch the store.

The Source Weekly chatted with Riccardo Waites, CEO of COBLA and the diversity coordinator for DBBA about the advent of The Colors Store.

LITTLE BITES Authentic Argentinian Empanadas Handmade to Order

By Nicole Vulcan

Masa Empanadas puts a modern twist on a traditional recipe

43

T

he story of Masa Empanadas is a case of one thing leading to another and everything coming together all at the same time. The first plotline involves a young Argentinian leaving the family farm to pursue his dreams of dance. That’s what Emanuel Columbo did back in 2010. His dreams led him to Lima, Peru, and then to the United States, studying, training, dancing, performing all along the way. Columbo did indeed become a professional dancer.

Another storyline is Columbo’s passion for food and his penchant for making the traditional empanadas of his childhood all the while infusing them with his own creative style. “You guys gotta sell these!” would be the exclamation anytime anyone would eat one of his empanadas, according to his husband and now business partner Roland Bello. “Emanuel makes amazing empanadas. The recipe is very authentic and they really do stand out,” says Bello.

The next twist in the story: the COVID-19 pandemic. Columbo’s dance career was immediately put on hold. He and Bello were stopped in their tracks and found themselves with time to really think about a lot of things; life things such as getting out of the cost-prohibitive Bay area even though they loved it there and about perhaps starting a business instead of just toying with the idea of one. There was also time for Columbo to play around in the kitchen, continuing to perfect those delicious empanadas.

The plot thickened when the couple visited friends in Bend and then had the thought (as so many of us have had) of why not Bend? Bend could be where they relocated their lives and started some kind of new venture even if they didn’t know yet exactly what that might

look like. Just for fun, they looked at some houses and again, just for fun, they put an offer on one of them. Of course, they ended up buying it, but Bello says, “It happened pretty spontaneously.”

While the idea of making empanadas to sell had come up during this time of transition, there was not time to dig into it yet. There was a house that needed six months’ worth of renovations for one thing. Before you know it though, the house was done and the ideas in the backs of their minds were moving to the forefront; all the while the pandemic continued to hamper life as everyone knew it. The question they asked themselves was, “Why don’t we go ahead and do something?” The answer they came up with was, “Everyone needs food regardless of pandemics.” Voila! Masa Empanadas was born.

As of this writing, Masa Empanadas has been offering their two mouthwatering vegetarian choices, mushroom and goat cheese and plant-based meat, for a little over a month. They’re made Submitted

in small batches with all organic ingredients and sold fully cooked and frozen and simply have to be reheated in a hot oven before serving. Orders are accepted Monday through Thursday to be picked up Friday or Saturday of the same week at 1929 Vicksburg Ave. in Bend. The response so far during their soft launch has been tremendous, according to Bello.

“We are vegetarian and it’s an important part of our lives. It’s important for us to show people that they can enjoy food that’s been around forever, that’s traditional on every other front, yet it brings with it all the benefits of being plant-based food. If we make a tiny step toward helping the world, that’s where our heart is. It’s about contributing as much as it’s about making a living,” states Bello.

Bello, who is a professional photographer, now handles the marketing/branding and business end of the new food company so that Columbo can concentrate on making empanadas. Their next focus is the Northwest Crossing Farmer’s Market and Bello explains that they’re getting all their ducks in a row for that. “It will be really wonderful to be able to sell the empanadas ready to eat and to be right in front of people that are eating them and see their reactions.”

This story doesn’t really have an ending as it seems to be just beginning, at least the Masa Empanada chapter of it.

Bello and Columbo are still dreaming and imagining a Masa Empanada food truck in the future, along with a mass takeover of the empanada world!

Bend Cider Opens Taproom

By Nicole Vulcan

Courtesy Bend Cider Co.

The New Bend Cider taproom is home to not-sweet ciders and a few cider guest taps.

T

he name is Bend Cider Company— and while its formal address is still in Bend, the company’s new tasting room can be found tucked away in the hamlet of Tumalo. Bend Cider Company opened the doors of its new tasting room on Wharton Avenue June 19.

The company’s cidery building is also located in Tumalo, and now, with the opening of the tasting room, there’s plenty of room for cider lovers and newbies to learn about the process.

“The most special thing is meeting everybody who’s tried our cider. They’re coming in because they really like it,” Co-founder Tammy Roark told the Source Weekly. For her, one of the best things about opening the tasting room is, “Being able to connect with the public and share our experience of starting this business, and to give people coming in some guidance in tasting a cider, and to understand the sensations.”

Inside the light-filled space is room for seating about 32 people. On tap is a full complement of Bend Cider’s signature dry, botanically infused ciders—but in order to give patrons the opportunity to try a variety of cider types, the taproom also stocks ciders from other cideries as well. Guest taps currently include varieties from La Familia from Salem and Cyderish from Eugene.

“We wanted to have a variety of ciders,” Roark said. “We don’t make sweet ciders, but we wanted to make sure we had something for everybody.”

Food items in the taproom include a cheese plate, hummus plate and a kids’ pack. Outdoors is a patio and lawn, complete with a stage that saw its inaugural show during the grand opening.

The Roarks plan to host live music as much as possible; for now, Saturdays

are lining up to be the day to see and hear musicians doing their thing. This Saturday, July 3, Tara Snow is set to play.

Co-founders Tammy and Kelly Roark started Bend Cider in 2019, after selling Kelly’s share in another cider business. Kelly Roark’s interest in cider started as a young adult, wife Tammy said. After growing up in a financially challenged household, Kelly Roark wanted to find a way to enjoy drinking on a limited budget.

“He collected apples around town to press with his friends—eventually having the community support him in starting a cider company,” Tammy Roark said. Like Bend Cider Company’s current offerings, Kelly Roark’s creations were on the dry side.

“One day he handed me a cider, but didn’t tell me it was cider. I thought it was white wine.” Tammy Roark said.

“It was my first intro into a cider that wasn’t sweet. It changed my whole perception of what cider could be.”

Today, the Roarks have completed the planting of two apple orchards; one in Newberg and one in Central Oregon.

To continue to grow their business, they hope to plant 100 trees per year.

“It’s important for us to stay connected to the earth and the whole process of growing the apples and pressing them,” Tammy Roark said.

The Bend Cider Company tasting room is currently open Thursday through Sunday, with plans to expand the hours over time.

Ties SCREEN Family Fast and Furious franchise could use an oil change

By Jared Rasic

47 VOLUME 25 ISSUE 26 / JULY 1, 2021 / THE SOURCE WEEKLY

hen I was a kid and the original “The Fast and the Furious” came out, I’m pretty sure I loved it because car chases and explosions were basically what I was after back then.

“2 Fast 2 Furious” was so terrible and “Tokyo Drift” was so ridiculous that the franchise became a bit of a laughingstock.

But it was 2009’s series low point, “Fast and Furious,” that made me actively hostile toward Vin Diesel and company.

That annoyance was pretty short lived, since it was 2011’s “Fast Five” where the series mostly got rid of its street-racing side quests and became focused on an incredibly convoluted plot tying all the movies together, with somewhat lowrent “Mission Impossible-“esque stunts and fights. “Fast Five” wasn’t just a great “F&F” movie, but a legit contender for one of the best action movies of the century so far. My somewhat ironic love of these dumb ass movies went from guilty pleasure to downright enthusiasm.

While “Fast & Furious 6,” “Furious 7” and “The Fate of the Furious” never quite reached the highs of Five, they all still have so much to recommend that it’s hard to be embarrassed. Whether it’s The Rock flexing so hard his cast shatters, Jason Statham kicking nameless goons in the face while carrying a baby or Charlize Theron’s cartoonishly evil villainy backed up by horrific blonde white-lady braids, it’s been a good time to be a fan of “F&F.” But with “F9,” we might have a problem once more. See, the true beating heart of the franchise was Paul Walker, who tragically passed away in a car accident while filming “Furious 7.” The Rock gave the series a big, goofy brain and some blockbuster credibility and Jason Statham

If 153 minutes of this is what you need, then F9 will deliver it to you.

provided “F&F’s” martial arts bona fides, but they moved on to greener pastures and a spin-off franchise of their very own.

So now we’re left with just Vin Diesel front and center, and he’s always been the least interesting thing about the whole series.

He tries really hard, and so do series veterans Michelle Rodriguez, Tyrese Gibson and Ludacris, but the series feels hollow with this ninth installment and it’s starting to seem like maybe the tires are growing a little bald. Don’t get me wrong, “F9” is still extremely and stupidly entertaining and if the thought of hearing Cardi B talk about biometrics or seeing Luda go to space brings a smile to your face, then the franchise still has what you’re looking for.

However, whether it’s new series villain John Cena’s film-length long grimace that looks like he’s holding in a particularly dangerous poop or a criminally wasted Charlize Theron hunting for any and all scenery she can chew, “F9” has put the series in the dangerous place of feeling like a parody of itself. Kurt Russell and Helen Mirren even show up in cameos designed to remind us that they’re in this series, dammit, but it’s Nathalie Emmanuel’s British hacktavist Ramsey that almost threatens to steal the entire movie.

Vin Diesel has one note, and while he hits that note as well as can be expected, it’s not a charismatic one. Without The Rock’s charm, Statham’s badassery or Paul Walker’s bro-tastic Johnny Utah vibes, we’re left

with some amazing action sequences tied together with only Diesel’s monosyllabic growl, and it’s not enough to sustain the series much longer. If Hollywood is to be believed, the franchise will either end or be rebooted with the upcoming 10th installment, and that seems like the right choice all around. I still love these movies dearly, but I would rather see the series cross the finish line strong than limp its way home, drunk on the glories of yesteryear.

movie since “Spider-Man: Far From Home” sees ScarJo reprising her role as Natasha Romanov, the badass assassin trying to lead a less murdery life. This takes place between Civil War and Infinity War, so expect it to fill in some puzzle pieces about some of her strange choices in “Endgame.” Are you guys sleeping on “Loki?” That show is so good.

The third movie in the Conjuring Franchise and the eighth in the Conjuring Cinematic Universe and the 50th horror movie of the last few years that starts off really strong and becomes less scary as it goes.

Hopefully soon we can get a live-action movie about Ursula from The Little Mermaid and Hades from Hercules because we would absolutely be there for them.

House Cinema Survives in Bend SCREEN Art How one of Oregon’s smallest theaters weathered the pandemic and came out the other side

Source Weekly: Are there lessons you learned about operating the theater during COVID that you will carry over to running the theater post-COVID? General Manager Julie Furnas: I quickly learned the difference between cleaning, sanitizing and disinfecting. All are important, BUT disinfecting is THE most important thing you can do to keep areas extra safe!

BendFilm Executive Director Todd Looby: Operating the theater and BendFilm during this time only underscored and reinforces things we already knew or suspected: That if you as an arts organization or business are pivoting, inventing and improvising with enthusiasm and purpose, that the audience will respond in overwhelmingly positive ways. The thing that is often undervalued or not fully understood, but should never be, is that arts nonprofits provide a direct service that is incredibly important—especially in confusing, difficult and contentious times. And that direct service is one to our emotions. Many people suffered directly from COVID via the loss of health or of loved ones; many people lost jobs and careers, and many were incredibly lonely. What we heard time and time again over the past 15 months is that our efforts to bring people together safely, in the Alley, in the

theater, at the drive-in, in online discussions, even our communications and blogs about things to look forward to had an incredibly powerful impact.

If there are no organizations specifically catering to bringing people together and stoking positivity, our community can be so easily siloed by other forces with more resources than us. But, gladly, our audience and supporters have been very clear that they back and support our efforts to counter those divisive forces, and luckily, it’s really fun to do—especially with the great board, staff and community we have.

SW: What were some of the unique challenges in keeping Tin Pan alive during the pandemic?

Screening and Tech Manager Todd Leiser: Reaching out to our audience and trying to figure out how to best keep them engaged in ways that they felt most comfortable was one of the most unique challenges. The most significant adaptation was the move to outdoor screenings in the alleyway. Figuring out the best things to play outside and keeping our loyal patrons interested in continuing to return to Tin Pan has been an ongoing puzzle to solve.

SW: Was it more difficult to close when you did or to decide to reopen when you did?

Looby: I wouldn’t say either was particularly difficult. We were the first theater to close in town because we knew if we were to remain open, our audience and staff would be at unnecessary risk. We were very thoughtful about reopening but finding good films at that point was the only challenging aspect because, understandably, filmmakers and distributors were still trying to figure out their best strategies to make sure these great films got their due either online or in a theater.

SW: What can film fans do to keep Tin Pan thriving?

Furnas: Continue to bring friends, families and our community together to experience films in a very unique way. We are SO thankful for everyone who has supported BendFilm and the Tin Pan during our darkest days. We love you and can’t wait to see you back in our seats.

Leiser: Check our schedule every week and come and see any film that piques your interest. If you can’t come see a film, give us a donation!

Also tell your friends about us. There are a lot of people who don’t know that Tin Pan exists or that we are the one indie arthouse cinema in Bend.

The more people know, the more they will come out.

SW: Are you already noticing differences in how audiences are since reopening?

Furnas: Some people have become extra cautious, which I believe makes other people uncomfortable. We didn’t think and talk about viruses, vaccines and politics 20 years ago like we do now. The world as it was has changed forever and I think it includes how we watch movies. With new home technology and streaming services that came about during the pandemic, some people may never come to a movie theater again.

Looby: Audiences are tentative and skewing younger than normal, but they are all overwhelmingly happy to be back in a movie theater Tin Pan Theater

OVID-19 affected everyone, human and business alike, completely differently. Bend institutions like Sargent’s Cafe and Pilot Butte Drive-In didn’t survive the virus, while newer spots like San Simon managed to pivot and thrive. It became almost impossible to predict which businesses would make it through the toughest and scariest time many of us could possibly imagine.

I wouldn’t have blamed you if you didn’t bet on Tin Pan Theater making it through the pandemic. The 29-seat arthouse cinema (now owned and operated by BendFilm) was already one of the two or three smallest movie theaters in Oregon, and in a time where the oncemighty Redmond Cinema closed its doors forever and streaming from home became bigger than ever, Tin Pan managed to keep the lights on, even after shutting down indoor screenings for close to 15 months.

I asked a few of the managers of Tin Pan (where I serve as programming manager and resident handsome bastard, if I don’t say so myself) what they did specifically to keep Bend’s beloved arthouse alive. Here is a lightly edited look at their answers.

Celebrate Summer, Together Again The First Interstate Bank Bend Summer Festival Returns

Following dinner and solo dance party, it's time to hunker down on the board for a night under the stars.

H

ave you ever dreamt about paddling out to a distant shoreline or island and spending the night? If you have, then this article is for you! In a water wonderland like Central Oregon, where there’s a secret lake around every corner, if you haven’t slept out under the stars after a day of paddling, you haven’t lived. Here’s a checklist from yours truly and a quick shakedown of what to consider before your hydro-campout.

Gear Besides the 10 essentials, ponder what you’ll bring on your overnight via the water by packing like an ultralight backpacker. Stove: Jetboil; light: headlamp; warmth cocoon: feather-weight sleeping bag—no sleeping pad or tent required. Since it’s summer, just pull your inflatable paddleboard on shore and crash on it. Pack all this in a 60- to 65-liter dry bag backpack. My favorite is made by Watershed. Pro tip: Although it will cost you in weight, if you want to have a late-night solo beachside dance party, I’d splurge and bring a waterproof Bluetooth speaker and maybe some battery-powered twinkle lights. Get it!

For paddle-specific gear, choose a touring board, long and lean, something with D-rings or webbing to allow rigging gear to the bow and the stern of the board. On your person, I recommend Astral hightop water shoes and a rescue life jacket (it allows for great shoulder range of motion so as to avoid armpit chaffage), a sweet helmet, NRS guide shorts and sunshade hoody and obviously, a trucker hat. Don’t forget a leash for your board and sunnies.

Provisions If you’re doing an overnight, you’ll want to eat like a queen before your golden-hour dance party for one. Therefore, carb load. Good to-go freeze-dried meals are fantastically flavored and pretty healthful with gluten-free and vegan options, and easily accessible at places including Mountain Supply, your friendly neighborhood outdoor store. If you’re on a shoestring budget, see Natural Grocers’ bulk food section, with dried beans and soups of all sorts. For hydration, I prefer to pack in all my water, but gravity-fed filters and ultraviolet wands have become popular for purifying on the fly.

When you eat and drink, a little while later, usually you have to go to the bathroom. With the increase in traffic on our waterways, even in spaces that you might feel are remote, it’s good practice to pack out your doo-doo. I prefer to restroom in a wag bag, available for order on the NRS website and at all fine sporting-goods dealers. For the ladies, a shewee (or shenis, pee pal or freshette) can help you relieve your bladder while standing—a novel magic trick that brings a smile to my face every time.

Know before you go and logistics So you’ve chosen a waterway for your adventure. Great. Now you need to: Be sure you’ve contacted the National Forest Service or Bureau of Land Management or whoever manages the waterway to check on hazards and access. No bigger bummer than showing up and a downed tree blocks the road so you can’t get to the

put-in. Check the internet, YouTube, local paddle shops and discover all known information about the location to which you are traveling. If you can, access and bring a map. Even a screenshot of Google maps will do. Or download any number of mapping apps that function without cell service. Finally, don’t sandbag yourself. Do something simple and easy-ish for your first time out. No sense in ruining it so you never do it again.

Citizen stewardship If you aren’t familiar already, read about leaving no trace and Wild and Scenic river visitor expectations and practice these, even if the waterway isn’t technically designated as such.

Good manners and etiquette go a long way in karma, and you’ll want the water Gods in your favor as you step up your hydro-expedition.

Last and definitely, most certainly not least, remember native peoples as you navigate across water and wilderness; apps like Native Land will give you information on whose ancestral lands you are traveling.

Catch you out on the water!

Author K.M. Collins recently presented the talk,“Diving into Big Mile and Mutiday Paddleboarding on Wild & Scenic Rivers” in a Wild Wednesday Oregon Wild talk. See that webcast at OregonWild.org, and learn more about how Oregon Wild is going to bat for legislation to protect 4,700 Oregon river miles.

Summer is a special time in Central Oregon: events, tourists and outdoor adventures galore. After the Fourth of July holiday weekend, locals and visitors will see the return of an annual favorite, the Bend Summer Festival, which was canceled in 2020, like so many other events. Downtown Bend comes alive for the weekend with artists, vendors, food carts and businesses.

As with most events, this year’s edition will look a little different, but with loosening restrictions around the state, the event was able to offer extended hours and announce a live music lineup.

Several areas will be set up for local vendors, businesses and makers to share their goods with the community.

Visit the Oregon Lifestyle Marketplace to find handmade goods. Art lovers can stroll through the Fine Artist Promenade, with handmade art in over a dozen categories. Metal sculptures, paintings, photography and mixed media artists are all set to show off their stuff. Festival goers also have the chance to vote for their favorite artist to take home the Best of Show prize.

The Kid’s Summer Sprint will have varying age-appropriate distance and relay challenges with prizes for each participant. The music lineup features local and regional acts all weekend long.

The Quick & Easy Boys are headlining the event, with well-known local acts throughout each day. There will also be plenty of food and drink options offered for those who need some refreshment while getting their festival on.

Insects: They’re not all 'bad'

Enjoy learning what’s going on as insects do things for, and to, us

By Jim Anderson math formula below will tell you how to make it work.

According to The Old Farmer’s Almanac: “To convert cricket chirps to degrees Fahrenheit: Just count the number of chirps in 14 seconds, then add 40 to get the temperature. The number you get will be an approximation of the outside temperature.”

Fly fishermen spend a lot of money and time making fake insects to attract elusive trout. Many fishermen I know look into the bellies of their catch to see what the fish had been eating, and then try to use similar creatures to catch more fish. Some of these hard-working addicts keep their fish and eat them, while others—thankfully—place them back in the stream or lake for another day.

I can recall talking to a new resident of Sunriver years back when I was the naturalist for the resort. My calling was to cultivate a positive attitude among residents, guests and employees for natural things of Sunriver. This particular homeowner complained about every insect that flew past her lights at night, certain they were all “pests.”

I attempted to convince the women that it was best for Sunriver — and her health — not to pick up a can of Raid, or some other poison, and try and kill every insect she saw.

I also pointed out that wasps are significant predators of harmful insects, and many of the big wood-boring beetles are important food for woodpeckers, especially the magnificent Pileated woodpecker of the high-country forests, and the beautiful White-headed Woodpecker.

Pollinating hummingbird moth in search of nectar.

Then the mosquitoes hit and that woman was all over me like a dirty shirt!

She wailed and complained to the point where she about drove me nuts. During one of her fervent whining episodes she shrieked, “What good are they?” I was so frustrated that I retorted, “What good are you, actually?”

Sure mosquitoes get under your skin—well, not really, that’s just a figure of speech. The females suck your blood, actually, while the males are flower pollinators. But when a mosquito larva comes near a fish, the larva is toast, while nighthawks, swallows and bats consume tons and tons of adult mosquitoes.

Look on the bright side: Just about every insect that flies, crawls, swims or walks in this country is someone else’s dinner.

When I spent time with the Aboriginal people in Australia I was impressed with how the children enjoyed toasting thumb-sized wood-boring beetle larva over a fire and slurping them down like

marshmallows. I tried it once, but I wasn’t hungry enough to enjoy the experience, or repeat it, much to the children’s delight.

Just before they popped a big grub in their mouth they’d shout, “Hey, Jim! Look!” It was enough to gag a maggot.

Now that I remember, though, I did fry up a bunch of gnats one time—that I caught while flying over Crane Prairie doing an osprey survey—and they were pretty good fried in butter; they tasted a little like honey-roasted pecans.

Now I’m content to spend my time watching—and enjoying—the fascinating interactions between insects, people and the results of humans being curious and tolerant of it all. The world is one great big textbook; all we have to do is pay attention and enjoy learning what’s going on as insects do things for and to us.

But now I’m wondering how chocolate-covered grasshoppers will taste, or one of those emerging cicadas. Maybe I’m missing something. …

ot too long ago I went on a rampage about birds being one of the best helpers in our “battle with insects.” I fear I’ve left people with the impression that all insects are “bad” and that we’re in constant peril from ravenous arthropods.

If I left you with that image then I did our six-legged Earth companions a great disservice. Bees, for example—in spite of their painful sting—are far from “bad.”

The fruit industry cannot get along without their help in pollinating orchards, and all the yummy honey—the byproduct of that buzzing around—makes for even sweeter dividends. By the way, I was a beekeeper for many years, and I loved my bees, but I gave them up when I learned that our local wild bees were in trouble, and that domestic honeybees were out-competing them.

If it weren’t for the multitude of insects that share air and space with us, we wouldn’t have the plethora of wildflowers that make spring so special here in the shadow of the Cascades, and veggies to eat.

But on the other hand, that beautiful hummingbird moth in the photo here leads a double life, something most insects do—must do. In the adult stage it’s a wonderful pollinator, but as a larva, some of them are known as the “Tomato Horn Worm.” Yes, they’re ravenous tomato vine eaters.

Then there are crickets. If you’re spending the night camping at Lava Beds National Monument, or many places east of the Cascades, and can do the math correctly, you can tell the air temperature by counting the chirps. The

For those new to legal cannabis, a do and don’t-do list

WWW.BENDSOURCE.COM / JULY 1, 2021 / BEND’S INDEPENDENT VOICE

If You’re New Here: A’s to Your Cannabis Q’s

By Josh Jardine Erin Stone / Pixabay

So what's in this little bottle can really get me high? Don't say we didn't warn you.

A

s a public service to those who may not yet have had the pleasure of knowing the benefits (and occasional drawbacks) to Oregon’s legal marijuana program, we’re tackling some of the most basic questions in this week’s Smoke Signals column.

Q: How do I know if I’m smoking too much weed?

A: That’s a great question. But I don’t know you, so I have no way to know.

Maybe you are smoking too much, or maybe you are not smoking enough.

I’d hazard a guess that if you’re worried enough to ask about it, maybe you are. Here are some other litmus tests: Do you own an item of clothing that’s free of burn holes? If no, then maybe cut down a bit. Are you smoking a quarter-pound every day? Not to seem judgmental, but perhaps that is too much.

But again, I’m not your weed supervisor. It sounds like you are seeking validation for your choices here, and I’m not entirely comfortable being your enabler, so I don’t know. Maybe pray on it? People seem to do that for stuff they want.

Q: I’ve been extra stressed with work and raising five kids. Is there a strain you would recommend?

A: Five kids? Five? Oh my god, that’s... that’s too many. Way too many. Where do you live, inside a giant shoe? I had to do a double-portion dab just from reading this question. That sounds like the worst, seriously. The worst. Is there any way you can fake your own death and leave the country? Belize does not have an extradition treaty with the U.S., and it’s beautiful this time of year. Barring that, try something with a high indica content. Preferably while you’re on the beaches of Belize.

Q: My grandmother is very conservative, and I want to tell her that I

smoke weed. How can I do so without upsetting her?

A: Go ahead and tell her. It’s probably going to kill her, but you do you, Captain Selfish. God forbid you try keeping any scrap of your life private.

Q: I’d like to include weed as part of my sex life with my wife. What do you recommend?

A: Has anyone ever accused you of oversharing? Well, since you asked, try this: Set the mood with candles, put some Chumbawamba on the stereo, and then pull out your 4-foot Graffix bong, fill it with ice water, and then—oh shit, the bong tipped over.

And you just changed the sheets! Shit!

Don’t just stand there, get me a towel.

Oh sweet Jesus, it smells so very bad, like a burning tire factory. Except the tires are made out of rotten, monthold sacks of garbage and sulphur.

Goddammit, why can’t you just learn to roll a joint? I mean, seriously. You should have gotten rid of that bong years ago.

Oh, or try cannabis-infused lubes.

Those are pretty good too, I guess.

Q: I’m interested in trying edibles for the first time, but I’m a little nervous. Any suggestions?

A: Hey, I know how scary it can be to eat food. Sometimes I even burst into tears when the waitress brings me my order. Your best bet is to just dive right in, starting with, let’s say, 2500 mg of THC. That’s nearly 167 recreational sized servings, so it’s going to be sorta spendy. Try to be around as many people as possible, like at Costco or Walmart during the busy shopping times. Focus your mind on everything that scares you. Really try to pinpoint all of the faults you find in yourself.

Best of luck!

(Real answer? Do exactly the opposite of this, please.)

Am

I’m a man in my 30s, and I’m looking to settle down and start a family.

I was falling in love with the woman I’ve been seeing for six months, who seems lovely, intelligent, and kind.

Recently, I arrived at her place early and overheard her arguing with her mother on the phone. She was yelling, swearing, and being very nasty. I’m close to my parents and can’t conceive of speaking to them this way.

She never mentions her parents, beyond saying she isn’t close with her mother.

She’s only been sweet and doting to me, and she seems well-liked by her friends and co-workers.

Could she have hidden anger issues?

—Shocked “Till death do us part” tends to come earlier than expected if your wife’s idea of marital compromise is either you say, “Yes, Dear” or she garrotes you with the wire on a cat toy.

It’s understandable you’re worried there’s a rage-filled, profanity-spewing ladymonster just under the sweet girlfriend veneer. However, because someone expresses anger in an ugly way at another person doesn’t necessarily mean: 1. They are out of control; or 2.

They will express themselves this way with everyone. (To be fair, it can mean one or both of these things.)

Anger often gets a bum rap, demonized as a “toxic,” “negative” emotion. Aristotle knew better, suggesting only fools never get angry (though he didn’t get into the subject of screaming a string of profanities at Mom). Our emotions, including so-called negative emotions like anger, are our protectors: motivating us to act in ways that make us more likely to survive, mate, and pass on our genes. For example, anger surges in us when we perceive that another person is treating us unfairly: shorting us on what we feel entitled to—whether money, love, respect, or our fair share of cake.

Anger seems to function as a bargaining tool to incentivize better treatment, explains evolutionary psychologist Aaron Sell and his colleagues. “Acts or signals of anger” communicate that unless the other person mends their unfair ways, we might “inflict costs” (maybe go all screaming maniac on them) or “withdraw benefits” (possibly exile them from our circle of friends). This suggests it might be in their interest to “recalibrate” their behavior in our favor: stop being so disrespectful, stingy, and/or cake-hoggy.

Anger as a selective “hey, don’t do me like that!” tool is different from anger as a way of being: “high trait anger,” a chronically angry disposition. People with this disposition have “a short fuse,” flying into a rage at the slightest provocation, explains evolutionary social psychology researcher Julie Fitness. They see the world and others in narrow terms—“right” or “wrong”—and are grievance hunters, ever on the lookout for “apparent injustice.” They are quick to lash out and blame others when things don’t go perfectly, and in relationships, they create a “climate of fear and loathing, with anger or the threat of it serving to intimidate and control” their partner.

If your girlfriend were this sort of person, wouldn’t you know? One could argue she might be a scary-explody person who’s managed to hide her true nature. That seems unlikely, given how the chronically angry tend to see a sick plot against them if the diner gives them three less raisins on their oatmeal than the guy at the next table.

You’re shocked—partly because you wouldn’t talk to your parents this way. Consider the possibility that your girlfriend has a different sort of parent: unloving and toxic. And consider a reason people jack up the volume and ugliness: They repeatedly perceive they aren’t being heard. (This is especially painful if you’re speaking to your parent and they have a history of being physically present but emotionally vacant.)

If your girlfriend feels like an unloved daughter (or some shade of that), she might be ashamed of it and see it as something to hide. She might suspect there was something wrong with her, unlovable about her (rather than understanding her mother as broken: unwilling or unable to be loving in the way every kid needs from their mother).

To encourage your girlfriend to open up to you, ask about her mom in a way that suggests she should redirect any shame she might be feeling.

Tell her you feel bad her mom seems to be a continuing source of pain for her and that she deserved—and deserves— better. Getting her to talk about her relationship with her mother—plus observing, over a few months, how she reacts in tough situations—should help you figure out whether there are any big red flags. As the saying goes: “Love is never having to scream, ‘I will end you! And then bury you in 36 pieces in a shallow grave!’”

WELLNESS

ASTROLOGY By Rob Brezsny drich Nietzsche said that when our rational minds are working at their best, they inspire us to cultivate our most interesting and enlivening passions.

They also de-emphasize and suppress any energy-draining passions that might have a hold on us.

I’m hoping you will take full advantage of this in the coming weeks, Cancerian. You will generate good fortune and sweet breakthroughs as you highlight desires that uplift you and downgrade desires that diminish you.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): Philosopher Frie-

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Leo author Wendell Berry suggests, “It may be that when we no longer know what to do, we have come to our real work, and when we no longer know which way to go, we have begun our real journey.” Although there’s wisdom in that formulation, I don’t think it’s true a majority of the time. Far more often we are fed by the strong, clear intuitions that emerge from our secret depths—from the sacred gut feelings that give us accurate guidance about what to do and where to go. But I do suspect that right now may be one of those phases when Berry’s notion is true for you, Leo. What do you think?

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): In 1750, more than 250 years after Columbus first visited the New World, Native Americans were still a majority of the continent’s population. But between 1776 and now, the United States government stole 1.5 billion acres of land from its original owners—25 times the size of the United Kingdom. Here’s another sad fact: Between 1778 and 1871, America’s federal administrations signed over 500 treaties with indigenous tribes—and broke every one of them. The possibility that these sins will eventually be remedied is very small. I bring them up only to serve as possible metaphors for your personal life. Is there anything you have unfairly gained from others? Is there anything others have unfairly gained from you? The next six months will be prime time to seek atonement and correction.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Libran Zen teacher Thich Nhat Hanh advises you and me and everyone else to “seek the spiritual in every ordinary thing that you do every day.” You have to work at it a bit, he says; you must have it as your firm intention.

But it’s not really hard to do. “Sweeping the fl oor, watering the vegetables, and washing the dishes become holy and sacred if mindfulness is there,” he adds. I think you Libras will have a special knack for this fun activity in the coming weeks.

(Thich Nhat Hanh wrote a series of “Mindfulness Essentials” books that includes How to Eat, How to Walk , How to Relax , and How to Connect. I invite you to come up with your own such instructions.)

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): My unexpected

interpretation of the current astrological omens suggests that you will be wise to go naked as much as possible in the coming weeks. Being skyclad, as the pagans say, will be healing for you. You will awaken dormant feelings that will help you see the world with enhanced understanding. The love that you experience for yourself will soften one of your hard edges, and increase your appreciation for all the magic that your life is blessed with. One important caveat: Of course, don’t impose your nakedness on anyone who doesn’t want to witness it.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): If you analyzed the best-selling songs as measured by Billboard magazine, you’d think we were in the midst of a dangerous decline in population. The vast majority of those popular tunes feature lyrics with reproductive themes. It’s as if there’s some abject fear that humans aren’t going to make enough babies, and need to be constantly cajoled and incited to engage in love-making. But I don’t think you Sagittarians, whatever your sexual preference, will need any of that nagging in the coming days.

Your Eros Quotient should be higher than it has been in a while.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Pulitzer Prize-winning author Donna Tartt, born under the sign of Capricorn, writes, “Beauty is rarely soft or consolatory. Quite the contrary. Genuine beauty is always quite alarming.” In my view, that’s an unwarranted generalization. It may sometimes be true, but is often not. Genuine beauty may also be elegant, lyrical, inspiring, healing, and ennobling.

Having said that, I will speculate that the beauty you encounter in the near future may indeed be disruptive or jolting, but mostly because it has the potential to remind you of what you’re missing—and motivate you to go after what you’ve been missing.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): On July 21, 1969, Aquarian astronaut Buzz Aldrin was the second human to walk on the moon. It happened during a spectacular astrological aspect, when transiting Jupiter and Uranus in Libra were trine to Aldrin’s natal Sun in Aquarius. But after this heroic event, following his return to earth, he found it hard to get his bearings again. He took a job as a car salesman, but had no talent for it. In six months, he didn’t sell a single car. Later, however, he found satisfaction as an advocate for space exploration, and he developed technology to make future trips to Mars more efficient. I hope that if you are now involved in any activity that resembles Aldrin’s stint as a car salesman—that is, a task you’re not skilled at and don’t like—you will spend the coming weeks making plans to escape to more engaging pursuits.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Astronomers say the Big Bang birthed the universe 13.8 billion years ago.

But a star 190 light years away from Earth contradicts that theory. Its age seems to be 14.5 billion years, older than the universe itself. Its scientific name is HD 140283, but it’s informally referred to as Methuselah, named after the Biblical character who lived till age 969.

Sometimes, like now, you remind me of that star. You seem to be an impossibly old soul—like you’ve been around so many thousands of lifetimes that, you, too, predate the Big Bang. But guess what: It’s time to take a break from that aspect of your destiny. In the next two weeks, you have cosmic permission to explore the mysteries of playful innocence. Be young and blithe and curious. Treasure your inner child.

ARIES (March 21-April 19): Columnist Linda Weltner says that there’s a dual purpose to cleaning your home, rearranging the furniture, adding new art to the walls, and doting on your potted plants. Taking good care of your environment is a primary way of taking good care of yourself. She writes, “The home upon which we have lavished so much attention is the embodiment of our own self love.” I invite you to make that your inspirational meditation for the next two weeks.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): “For peace of mind, I will lie about any thing at any time,” said author Amy Hempel. Hmmmm. I’m the opposite. To cultivate peace of mind, I try to speak and live the truth as much as I can. Lying makes me nervous.

It also seems to make me dumber. It forces me to keep close track of my fibs so I can be sure to stick to my same deceitful story when the subject comes up later. What about you, Taurus? For your peace of mind, do you prefer to rely on dishonesty or honesty? I’m hoping that for the next four weeks, you will favor the latter. Cultivating judicious candor will heal you and boost your intelligence.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): In her essay about education, “Don’t Overthink It,” philosopher Agnes Callard reminds us, “No matter how much we increase our investment at the front end—perfecting our minds with thinking classes, long ruminations, novel-reading, and moral algebra—we cannot spare ourselves the agony of learning by doing.” That will be a key theme for you in the next four weeks, dear Gemini. You will need to make abundant use of empiricism: pursuing knowledge through direct experience, using your powers of observation and a willingness to experiment.

Seller’s Disclosures: Truth in Real Estate

Broker, CRS

What items need disclosure when selling a home? one’s real estate broker. Realtors are here to help guide a seller through the process, protect them from potential sale fails due to failures to disclose and mitigate possible disclosure issues.

Some of the more common disclosure areas are lead-based paint, pests, fire and mold/water damage. Regarding water damage (example: the recent severe winters causing leaks), I cannot stress enough the importance of disclosing any history of water damage or mold.

First, because it more often than not will come up in an inspection report and second, because a buyer can request a comprehensive loss underwriting exchange, commonly called a CLUE report. This allows the buyer to see any insurance claims that have been made on the property in the last seven years.

Other areas that are important to disclose upfront are things like permitting.

Are there any structures built or major remodels to the property that have not been permitted? This one is a big one for buyers, as it determines potential liability to remedy a non-permitted structure down the road. It also can determine insurance coverage and liability. A buyer has the right to know the facts regarding permitting so that they may make their own educated decision on those facts as they move forward.

It’s crucial to disclose to your real estate broker any potential issues and trust their guidance and knowledge.

Realtors cannot protect you from what they don’t know. The rule of thumb is to disclose everything you know about the property. Better to be open, rather than have the proverbial skeletons dancing out of the closet later down the road.

very property has idiosyncrasies, and certainly, every home is not perfect. It’s highly likely at some point during homeownership something has occurred that will need to be disclosed when selling the property. As a broker, I have yet to meet a seller who hasn’t expressed apprehension about disclosing potential and past problems that could influence a buyer’s decision. This apprehension begs the question: What and how much does a seller tell, not only their broker, but also potential buyers?

Purposely withholding pertinent information about a property likely will land a seller in a serious conundrum that most certainly can/will lead to a sale fail and possibly legal ramifications. There have been many instances of lawsuits across the country in which sellers have paid significant amounts of money to buyers because the seller was not forthcoming or honest with pertinent information about the property.

Think of it in a parallel to online dating. A person sees a profile that interests them. Everything looks good and there is a certain level of trust that the other party is being transparent and forthcoming. Then they meet and it turns out that the information given was less forthcoming. My point in using this analogy is that more often than not, the reality of a situation will eventually come out; be it when selling a property or cruising Tinder.

Real estate brokers are employed not only to help one sell their property, but also to help protect a seller from potential issues before, during and after a transaction. I cannot stress enough how important it is to discuss all potential issues with
