Why are there tentacles
in my chowder?
“There are many pretty guides to the
Oregon Coast. This isn’t one of them.”
(from ‘Glossary of Useful Phrases,’ in
“Uncle Mike’s Guide to the Real
Oregon Coast”)
F
Thus begins the introduction to “Uncle Mike’s
Guide to the Real Oregon Coast”. The first time we
read those lines we smiled. Yes, we have known for
quite a while that Uncle Mike is not like the other
children. For that matter, neither is Steve McLeod.
Or perhaps the coastal climate just brings out their
‘dark side’. Whatever it is, they have created a
volume that will make the locals giggle and the
tourists keep a wary eye on those cute little
sandpipers. This may well become the Bible ot
Coastal Chapter of the Blain Society. Governor Tom
McCall must be laughing out loud somewhere.
Uncle Mike goes him one better, suggesting not that
you,’ visit but don’t stay’, as Tom did; but instead
that this might not be the right place for your vacation
plans at all. Yes, we can hear the gnashing of teeth
in the local Chambers of Commerce from here to
Newport. But, we bet they will be selling the book
themselves soon. So, the book is finished, it is at
the printer, and as soon as we get it back we will be
send you your copy, if you paid in advance; or will
be happy to take your order for the limited first
edition of one thousand - autographed by the author
and the illustrator - for $20 per copy. It makes a
great gift for those folks from New Jersey with the
twelve kids who always wanted to visit you at your
little cabin by the sea. Hurry - order before they
call. Send checks or money orders to The Left Coast
Group, Box 1222, Cannon Beach, OR 97110, and
note “ Uncle Mike’s Book” on the memo line of your
check. Cool, huh?

Steve McLeod.
Kite Flying....the villagers opt for personal wind
craft constructed of heavy canvas and galvanized
pipe.
HitlS
At Hamma Hamma field in Tempe, Arizona
the pitchers and the catchers are gathering.
Putting on the uniform of the Chicago Cubs
and tossing around a baseball. Another year
is begining, every one starts fresh. On any
given day, any given team can beat any other.
The Cubs have some great players and
coaches, as usual they could use some
pitching, but we’ll see what they look like
when they take the field in another month or
so. And every Cub fan wonders if this will
be the “next year” that we have waited for so
terribly long. We still have hope us die
hard Cubs fans. Go Cubbies!
