Wahkiakum PUD General Manager Dave Tramblie shared a list of upcoming projects with the PUD Board of Commissioners at the board’s Tuesday morning meeting. The first project began on Wednesday with a scheduled outage in the Skamokawa area, including East Valley, Middle Valley and Ingalls Road, a portion of SR 4 and West Valley Road, in order to upgrade a section of overhead conductor and reroute it alongside the road for better access. The county provided an assist with a tree that needed to c...
To The Eagle: From my perspective, WDFW did not put deer on Puget Island. Deer have been on Puget Island all along and way before lots of the current residents. Some of the deer are there because they swam there. If WDFW now wants to keep deer on the JBH Reserve (physically move them back to where they were in imminent danger because of a failing dike), they will have to stop making it a bird refuge/swamp and make it once again habitable for the deer as it was when the deer thrived. The deer thrived when there were farms and cows where the JBH...
To The Eagle: Someone said this, and it is so clearly true, "When the power of love replaces the love of power, then we might have a world of peace and intelligent behavior." Intolerance of the ideas and opinions of others to the extent that one would abolish these people to a particular hell would not bring about that state of love and compassion for all life. It would create the world we have now, which certainly could, to put it mildly, be improved upon. Alex Docker, Ph.D., Cathlamet...
To The Eagle: Quoting Chaucer, “There is an end to everything, to good things as well.” So holds true with my position as the executive director of Wahkiakum Community Network. I have had the pleasure of serving this fabulous organization for the last eleven years, but it is time to free up some me-time, finally work a regular work week (at my other job at the PUD) and perhaps find a hobby or two! Effective this month, I have resigned from the Network. I am writing to introduce Ginger Hake as my replacement as the new coordinator for Wah...

The road from Woodstock to Wahkiakum might have traveled faster as the crow flies, but Jerry Ledtke’s journey was grounded by wrong turns and right places. He was called first to the sea, and then to the woods, but always to the music. This year, with the encouragement of friends and fellow musicians, Ledtke recorded his first album, Woodstock to Wahkiakum. It’s all original music in Ledtke’s unique style, which he describes as Americana, a catchall for folk, rock, country and blues. “I’ve playe...

To The Eagle, I would like to respond to your recent article “Tarot: A guide to the past and healing here and now.” I noticed you had given this woman of the article some very generous exposure to her craft of “fortune-telling,” which is what tarot card reading is about. Maybe you will allow me the same gracious space to express what I think about fortune-telling. When someone tells you your future by reading the tarot cards I wonder are they able to do this by a special gift that most of us don’t have, or are they aided by some unseen fo...
