“I needed to buy wire crimps
for some vineyard repairs. That
turned out to be a pretty ex-
pensive stop,” Hawkins said.
While Hawkins was inside
the store, someone was helping
themselves to 23 cases of wine
from his truck. The operation
required fighting through sev-
eral layers of heavy-duty shrink
wrap and offloading 750
pounds worth of wine in a very
short period of time.
The purloined pinot gris re-
tails for $35 per bottle. At a to-
tal loss of $9,660, Hawkins was
losing close to $2,000 in the
parking lot for every minute he
was in the store.
Larsen and Hawkins only
produce between 150 and 300
cases of pinot gris in a given
vintage year, so this loss is a
significant blow to their bot-
tom line.
“It’s going to be tough to
make up the loss on top of
all that we’ve lost the past 15
months,” Larsen said.
The remaining cases of
Seven Sails Vineyard 2018 Pi-
not Gris Rouge remain in stor-
age, so the wine isn’t in any
stores, restaurants or wine bars.
If you witnessed the theft or
spot any of the bottles, please

supply chain,” Boeing said. “We
continue to devote time and
resources to improving safety
and quality performance.”
The FAA fine relates to two
separate defects that Boeing
allowed to be installed on its
Renton-built 737s, including
the older 737 NG model and
the newest 737 Max.
Between June 2015 and
April 2019, Boeing installed
defective head-up guidance
systems made by supplier
Rockwell Collins on 618 Boe-
ing 737 NGs and 173 Boeing
737 Maxes.
These are systems that dis-
play the jet’s key instrument
readings on a glass panel in
front of the pilot’s face so that
they can be read at critical mo-
ments — such as when com-
ing in to land — without the
need for the pilot to look down
at the main instrument panel.
Such systems are typically op-
tional extras ordered by pre-
mium airlines, including many
U.S. carriers.

Tourism

Travel Oregon’s 2019 an-
nual report estimated that
tourism in Central Oregon
contributed about 10,000
jobs and visitor spending ex-
ceeded $1.3 billion the prior
year. But the influx of visitors
places increased demands on
infrastructure and on the sur-
rounding natural areas that
are valued so highly by Or-
egonians and has negatively
impacted affordability in the
area, Vogel said.

In 2019, the ABA had more
than 1,800 members, a sub-
stantial increase from a decade
before when core membership
had fallen to just over 1,400
— after once exceeding 5,000
— in face of competition from
Amazon and from such physi-
cal bookstore chains as Barnes
& Noble and Borders.
The demise of Borders and
the unexpectedly limited ap-
peal of e-books helped the
independents grow in recent
years.
The ABA is in transition in
other ways. Criticized for its
predominantly white leader-
ship and membership, it has
established a Diversity, Equity,
and Inclusion Council, and,
in its announcement Thurs-
day, cited the addition of 23
BIPOC-owned stores as mem-
bers. It has also expanded the

gonians said in the survey that
tourism contributes a lot to a
strong economy. But by mak-
ing it such a desirable place, it
also made housing unafford-
able in Central Oregon — not
nearly as much as those on
the north coast of Oregon,
where 71% of the respondents
said housing was unafford-
able, according to the survey.
In the survey, respondents
are encouraged to add in com-
ments. One Deschutes County
man said, “Tourists bring too
much traffic and then they re-
turn and buy property creat-
ing more problems.”
definition of a “store.” While
many members are traditional
general interest bookstores,
whether the Tattered Cover in
Denver or Books & Books in
Coral Gables, Florida, others
are “pop-up” sellers setting up
temporary or online-only out-
lets, such as Marianne Reiner’s
runforcoverbookstore.com.
Reiner, based in San Diego,
had opened Run For Cover as
a physical store in 2018 and
was anticipating a strong 2020
before the pandemic hit.
With sales plunging and the
rent not going down, she de-
cided to shut down the store
and become a digital seller in-
stead, a “concierge” personally
delivering books to customers
and including hand-written
notes.
“It’s been a challenging year,
but a good one,” Reiner said,
adding with a laugh, “I may
even be able to pay myself a
little.”
