10A • June 17, 2016 | Cannon Beach Gazette | cannonbeachgazette.com A glance back with Peter Lindsey A ‘storm’ of new stories is brewing in lively local history CANNON BEACH GAZETTE/SUBMITTED PHOTO By Nancy McCarthy Th e Portland-based Celtic band Na Rasai. For Cannon Beach Gazette Na Rosai to perform in Cannon Beach Back by popular demand, the storm is comin’ over the rock. The “storm” of new stories and historical photos of Can- non Beach will be released this month in the newly revised book, “Comin’ in Over the Rock: a Storyteller’s History of Cannon Beach,” written by folklorist and former English teacher, Peter Lindsey, of Cannon Beach. Lindsey’s book fi rst was pub- lished in 2004 and went out of print in 2008. Last November, the community collected $8,000 to revise and republish the book con- taining quintessential stories about the characters of Cannon Beach. “I’m excited about it,” said Lindsey. “It’s kind of exciting.” The new book will be launched during a gathering at 7 p.m. June 22, in the Cannon Beach Book Co. Those who con- tributed $100 or more will re- ceive a signed copy of the book. “I’ll scrawl anything they might choose,” Lindsey said. The project to republish the book began with a discussion of locals attending a wedding two years ago. Although Rainmar Bartl, retired city planner for Cannon Beach, hadn’t attended the wedding, he heard about the idea and pursued it. He learned that Portland State University had a publishing program called “Write to Publish.” Instructor Abbey Gaterud and her students agreed to copyread and prepare the new book for publication. The Cannon Beach History Center & Museum presents Na Rosai, a Celtic group based out of Portland, Friday, June 17, at 7 p.m. This will be Na Rosai’s coastal debut. In 2010 Erik Killops returned to his hometown of Portland after receiving his bachelor’s degree in Irish music and dance at the University of Lim- erick in Ireland. Shortly after he met bouzouki player Richie Rosencrans and uilleann piper Pres- ton Howard at sessions around Portland. After a few house gatherings, a weekly perfor- mance began at local watering hole the East Burn. In the fall of 2012, fl ute player Conor O’Bryan joined the ranks of the band. In 2014, Na Rosai released their self-titled debut album featuring an eclectic mix of traditional Irish music, old- time Appalachian tunes, and a set of Breton, and French tunes. Adults, $12; children, $2, com- plimentary refreshments provided. All proceeds help fund upcoming events at the history center; including future concerts, lectures, exhibits, and fi eld trips.

Based on the seminal 1980 hit move “9 to 5: The Musical” is set in the late 1970s and is the hilarious story of friendship and revenge in the Rolodex era. Pushed to the boiling point, three co-workers concoct a plan to get even with the sexist, egotistical, lying, hyp- ocritical bigot they call their boss. In a hilarious turn of events, Violet, Judy and Doralee live out their wildest fantasy — giving their boss the boot! The following weekend brings the opening of the second summer show “Let’s Murder Marsha,” a comedic romp about murder, double crosses and birthday surprises. Marsha is hopelessly addicted to reading murder mysteries and overhears her loving husband discussing her upcoming birthday surprise with an interior decorator. To her ears, though, it sounds like they are planning to murder her! With the assistance of her next door neighbor she tries to turn the tables on them with a poisoned potion.

FILE PHOTO Peter Lindsey was selected as the recipient of this year’s Oregon Coast Literary Award, presented by students from Seaside High School. The book also was reviewed by several local residents before it was sent to a printer in Illinois, which published 1,900 volumes. While the new version re- tains the same stories of the earlier book, there are new stories as well. The stories come from L i n d s e y ’s youth, when Cannon Beach’s “rascals” gathered in local gas stations, on the side- walks and in the bars. The stories unfolded as “I and my testosterone-addled friends were hanging out,” said Lindsey, whose book is fi lled with adven- tures the teenagers encountered while roaming freely on the beach and in the woods behind the town before it became a tour- ist destination. “I think it should be required reading for people in Cannon Beach who have arrived in the last 20 years,” Bartl said. Although the book traces Can- non Beach’s history, it’s more than that, said Lind- sey’s childhood friend and fel- low author, Karl Marlantes, who wrote the for- ward to the new book. “Histories in- form: stories con- nect,” Marlantes wrote. “If you want to have the essence of time, stories tell it best,” Lindsey add- ed. “My juices start to quiver when I encounter a story. If you don’t collect those stories, they vanish, just like people vanish. So I cherish these things.” Seaside High School students enjoyed the stories contained in the fi rst edition of “Comin’ in Over the Rock” so much that they bestowed their annual Oregon Coast Literary Award on him last year. His favorite story in the new edition is “A Logger Talks to God,” which he calls the “quint- essential” story of the “heart of Cannon Beach and the culture of Cannon Beach.” The story also appeared in a collection of folk- lore stories to which Lindsey con- tributed called “The Well-Trav- eled Casket.” Lindsey fi rst heard the story in the former Dueber’s variety store, a “hotbed of local interaction at one time because there was so little else going on in Cannon Beach,” he said. In addition to a new forward, Lindsey’s book also contains two maps of Cannon Beach and its surroundings drawn by As- toria artist Sally Lackaff. More historical photos — provided by local residents, including Jea- nette Stevens, Heather Goode- nough and Marlene Laws — also are included. Bartl’s stepson, Peter Grant, a graphic designer, was able to scan the historic photos and in- crease the resolution to improve the images for printing. A new cover features an illustration of Haystack Rock in a rainstorm, and Oregon poet Kim Stafford summarized the contents on the back page. The book title comes from something Lindsey heard while hanging out at the old Shell gaso- line station at the corner of Gow- er and Hemlock streets north of Haystack Rock. “She’s comin’ in over the rock, today, boys!” station own- er George Malstead told them, as rain whipped around the sham- bling, yellow-washed building. From there, Lindsey launched the stories that fi ll the book. “Everyone should have a copy,” Bartl said. “This is the es- sential history of Cannon Beach.” Plein Air & More Art Festival off ers workshops Artists are invited to partici- pate in one of three workshops being held June 23-24, leading up to the Cannon Beach Gallery Group’s eighth annual Plein Air & More Art Festival, June 24-26. Mike Rangner presents “Two Days Working En Plein Air.” Stu- dents will start the day with a basic introduction to the histo- ry and the current surges of this form of expression. Mike will demonstrate the basics of starting a painting, while discussing com- position, line, shape, value and light. His goal is to open artists up to the challenges and pleasure of expressing themselves through painting the landscape. All levels of experience are welcome. To register and for the workshop sup- ply list go to rangerfi neart.com. Anton Pavlenko will lead “Ea- sels at the Beach.” Focus will be on how to paint expressive land- and seascapes on location. Par- ticipants can expect lectures, live demos, critiques and hands-on in- dividual instruction. All levels of artist are welcome. To register and see the de- tailed supply list go antonpavlen- ko.com. Hazel Schlesinger leads a class for beginning and interme- diate students, “Oil An Introduc- tion and Beyond.” A challenge for many painters is learning how to edit or how to simplify the land- scape into a few basic shapes and values. Students will learn how to ex- press the essence of a scene by editing the details into simple ab- stract shapes and using bold brush strokes to build their landscapes.
