Today in History
In a dramatic reversal of its long-standing commitment
to the Nationalist Chinese government of Taiwan, and
a policy of non-recognition of the communist People’s
Republic of China (PRC), America’s U.N. representatives
vote to seat the PRC as a permanent member. Over
American objections, Taiwan was expelled.

The magic is in the bun
at Deanies Wienies
By MATT RAWLINGS
Of the Keizertimes
Dean Ables is used to hav-
ing a lot on his plate.
Along with being a con-
struction manager up in Port-
land and the offensive line
coach for the McNary High
football team, Ables also owns
the hot dog cart at the Wood-
burn Outlet mall called Dean-
ie’s Wienies.
But his life is about to be-
come a whole lot busier, and
Ables is loving every second
of it.
After having the popu-
larity of his hot dog cart in
Woodburn increase over the
last four years, Ables is now
making Deanie’s Wienies into
a restaurant right outside of
Keizer. The shop is located
will be located in suite 129
of the 45th Parallel Building
at 2195 Hyacinth Street NE,
which is also the home to Vag-
abond Brewing.
The grand opening of the
new restaurant will be on Sat-
urday, Oct. 26 at 11 a.m. and
will even feature a live D.J.
“I literally can’t wait. We’re
going to have a party and
we’re going to blow the doors
off this part of town,” Ables
said. “It’s been a dream come
true.”
Ables offi cially started the
business eight years ago when,
after losing his job, he used his
severance package to build a
hot dog cart in his garage.
“This company started out
of a need and a dream. I’m a
true entrepreneur. I love the
idea of doing it myself,” Ables
said.
Ables claims that he has al-

Dean Ables is hoping his Deanies Wienies location on Hyacinth becomes a hangout spot for all
ages.
ways had an entrepreneurial
spirit. When asked why he de-
cided to go into the hot dog
business, his answer was pretty
simple.
“Well I’m 6’7 and 400
pounds and I love hot dogs,”
Ables said. “To me, hot dogs
are the original comfort food.”
Ables grew up in southern
California and was raised in
Tennessee, and he wants his
wienies and the overall feel
of his restaurant to refl ect the
vibe of his upbringing. But
the inspiration that separates
Ables’ hot dogs from the rest
of the pack actually came from
New England.
While on a business trip
to the east coast more than a
decade ago, Ables came across
a food cart that served their
wienies in a bun similar to a
lobster roll, which was but-
tered, fried and given a tasty
seasoning. The fl avor stuck
with Ables, which is why he
has re-created his own version
of these unique buns, which
will be made fresh every day
in a brick oven.
“It’s just got a distinct fl avor
to it. It’s the best hot dog
you’ll ever have. I guarantee
it. A hot dog is a hot dog, but
we wanted to do something
different, which is why we
changed the bun,” Ables said.
Along with offering hot
dogs and more than 20 top-
ping choices, Ables will also
be serving draft beer and ci-
der, with the goal of making
his restaurant a popular hang-
out destination.
“I want it to be a place
where people will enjoy
themselves and have the best
hot dog they’ll ever have in
their life. It will be a fun place
where the employees are smil-
ing and everyone is just happy
to be there,” Ables said.
es – of roughly 10 percent a
year, 7 percent plus the cur-
rent CPI percentage – but
it is not rent control in the
traditional sense. Rent con-
trols would mean instituting
a ceiling above which the
price could not rise above.
Residents will also have op-
portunities to ask questions
regarding other concerns.
Loberger is a longtime res-
ident of a manufactured
home park herself.
One of the trends she is
most concerned about is
leases that include attempts
to offl oad continuing main-
tenance costs onto the resi-
dents of the parks.
“It's just throwing it on
the backs of the people that
can ill afford it,” she said.
When asked what she
would tell residents who are
fearful of coming forward
with their concerns, Loberg-
er put a new spin on an old
saying, “There’s obviously
safety in numbers, but there’s
power in numbers.”
She said one of the most
frequent concerns OSTA of-
fi cials hear about is fear and
intimidation, but that staying
silent allows park managers
to dictate the home owners’
lifestyle.
“You’re not in an assisted
living space where they tell
you when you can eat and
when you can visit a neigh-
bor and when you can walk
your do. There's just laws and
rules that managers also need
to follow and sometimes
feels like park owners sort of
overstep,” she said.
She, as much as anyone,
would like manufactured
home communities to be
seen in a more positive light,
but the park community
needs to be able to function
like a community before that
can happen, she said.

“All [three] had hearts of
gold and generous spirits. I
have fond memories of all,”
said Virginia Crim Denison.
Before Keizertimes ended its
last interview with Dr. Cast-
erline, we asked him if he had
any advice those younger than
him – even if we don’t live to
100.
“If you want something,
go for it. Don’t give up on
the fi rst try. If you want it and
you’re qualifi ed for it, work
for it,” he said. “Being around
hospitals was something that
got into my blood. I liked
those surroundings. When I
wanted [a] job as an orderly, I
just kept asking.”
