It’s definitely spring. The birds singing and chirping in the morning is enough to wake anyone up. I don’t remember them starting out so early in the morning though. Daffodils are blooming everywhere even where there haven’t been any before. Must be from flood waters. I’ve even seen quite a few eagles sitting in the trees along the Grays. Looking for an easy fish meal, maybe? News from Naselle: Remember when all the rhodies in front of the school were just huge and beginning to look kind of ratty? Then they were all cut back due to their h...

To The Eagle: Duck hunters who favor Alternative 1 of the Comprehensive Conservation Plan for Willapa National Refuge have sent letters to several local newspapers. They argue that walk-in hunting access should take precedence over breaching dikes to restore salt water marshes. One "fact" in these letters is that a similar dike-breaching project at Nisqually Wildlife Refuge has resulted in death of waterfowl, so that only seven percent remain. This would be shocking if true--but it is not supported by refuge staff when recently contacted. Bird...

COLD, WHITE, WET AND WINDY--Well, we found out this past week that winter is definitely still here and depending on where you were and what day it was in this past week, you were either freezing cold, or dealing with many inches of snow or you were looking at the oh so common rain drops coming down out of the sky, accompanied by a strong nippy wind, a mixed bag of weather for sure. While Kelso was getting blasted by snow, I was quite happy that we didn't get hit with their seven to eight inches of the white stuff. While there were certain...

Ebbie Hantke started to manufacture his one-of-a-kind sports car 12 years ago in Kurt Nielsen’s shop on Puget Island. Nielsen died before the car was finished, but his contributions to the car extend beyond the space to work. In addition to encouragement, Nielsen provided mahogany for the “Kurt Nielsen Memorial Dashboard” and gave Hantke the Boyce Motor Meter that graces the sleek hood. The car is like that. Every part has a story. Hantke said, “I’ve made an exotic car out of mundane parts. These are readily available materials.” “The car st...
