14 // COASTWEEKEND.COM Weigh your mends at Repair Cafe Continued from Page 4 ASTORIA — And the number is 1,598 for this year — January through October. That’s how many pounds of repairable items the volunteers at Astoria’s Repair Cafe have weighed and repaired, or given advice on, to keep items — from jeans to weed-whack- ers — from ending up in a landfill. Astoria’s next Re- pair Café is 6 to 8 p.m. Wednesday, Nov. 28, at 1010 Duane St. Repair Cafe is a com- munity of people who repair, sew, sharpen and Philosophy give expert advice on pretty much anything that is broken, torn, dull or in need of repair. (No gas engines.) Join us with your repairables on the fourth Wednesday of each month, except for next month when our December event will be one week earlier: Dec. 19.

His worry over his late mother’s devotion to a rad- ical Irish-based Christian cult called “Two by Twos” helped shape his less restrictive beliefs which are encapsulated in John Fugelsan’s 1997 interview of George Harrison. It was the last signif- icant TV interview with Harrison, who died in 2001. The “quiet Beatle” spoke about human con- sciousness and the spiritual insights he learned collab- orating with sitar player Ravi Shankar and studying with the Indian mystic Maharishi Mahesh Yogi. Peterson rejected the radical elements of the cult, instead embracing what he calls a “love of God’s light.” Like Harri- son, he believes everyone should choose their own path. “If I can be the best that I can be, then everybody benefits. Life is a bunch of experiences that can all be positive — if you make them positive,” he said. “Because, if you have negative things in your life, and negative things like regret, you have anger and that just hurts you.” CW COURTESY SEASIDE CHAMBER OF COMMERCE Brigitte Willse at the 2017 Seaside Artisan Fair.
