Hospital followed law buying property without appraisal, state says By JUSTIN BURNETT South Whidbey Record Whidbey General Hospital did not have an appraisal done before it spent $2 million on a property in Bayview valued at $618,000 six years ago, and it turns out they didn’t have to. State officials confirmed this week that while Washington law does require multiple appraisals to be performed before a public agency sells property, there is no such mandate when it comes to buying.
“The answer is ‘No, there is no requirement,’” said Thomas Shapley, a spokesman for the Washington State Auditor’s Office. Shapely was posed the question by The Record in the wake of a recent public records request to the hospital district, which yielded no appraisal for the January 2008 land purchase and a subsequent assertion by hospital staff that one wasn’t legally necessary. When asked to verify the claim, Shapely seemed surprised such a law did not exist and had to check with agency attorneys to
be sure. Also surprised was South Whidbey’s state lawmaker. In an interview Monday, Rep. Norma Smith, R-Clinton, said she doesn’t know all the specifics of the hospital’s purchase, but vowed to look into the broader issue concerning the state’s apparent lack of safeguards when it comes to taxpayer-bought properties. “That is definitely something I’ll be taking back and doing some research on, because if that is indeed the case, it needs to be evalu-
ated and a potential legislative remedy found,” Smith said. The property in question concerns a 4.5-acre parcel of undeveloped property in Bayview, which is located across Highway 525 from The Goose Community Grocer. Purchased from Verlane Gabelein, it was meant to be the future building site of a new South Whidbey hospital clinic, replacing an SEE HOSPITAL, A13

Port of South Whidbey Commissioner Curt Gordon performs the honors during a ribbon-cutting ceremony at South Whidbey Harbor on Friday, April 25. He is surrounded by local, state and federal elected officials, including Congressman Rick Larsen (left), a Second District Democrat.
By CELESTE ERICKSON South Whidbey Record Friday was a day for celebration and a water show at South Whidbey Harbor, as South End representatives and community members gathered for the grand opening of the two new docks at the harbor. Port of South Whidbey staff and commissioners were all smiles as they presented the long-awaited expansion project to the public. And the crowd enjoyed a demonstration of South
Whidbey Fire/EMS’s new fireboat, which is permanently moored at the harbor. Speakers all pointed to the partnerships between the port, the fire district, Langley and the state of Washington in making the project a success. Congressman Rick Larsen, a Second District Democrat, was in attendance and praised the port’s partnership with the city for pushing the project through to completion. He said one of his major goals is to support long-term investments in local infrastructure for economic growth.
“This is a good example of a recreational asset not just for Langley or for South Whidbey, but for the entire region. We’re all pleased to be part of that,” Larsen said. Island County Commissioner Helen Price Johnson said the project, with its intertwining connections, is a testament of governments working together to achieve good things. “Hats off to the port for working together,” she cheered.

Whidbey-made tugboat launched at Freeland after seven weeks of work “Catt’s Number One, a 40-foot steel tugboat, checked its way triumphantly across the bay at Holmes Harbor Sunday evening, climaxing several hours of launching work and seven weeks of construction. “The product of the ingenuity and resourcefulness of Francis ‘Cat’ Cattron of Langley, the boat was built in the yard at Lehman’s Mill, now laughingly referred to as the ‘Lehman-Cattron Freeland Shipyards.’ “

Margaret Andersen, Loretta Wilson, and Steve Guss work on clearing hundreds of Scotch broom plants in the Saratoga Woods on Saturday, April 26. The group volunteered with members of the Whidbey Camano Land Trust and the Greening Congregations to remove the invasive plants.
Members of the Whidbey Camano Land Trust joined with the Greening Congregations on Saturday, April 26, to remove invasive plants. Hundreds of Scotch broom plants were pulled out from the meadow at Saratoga Woods near Langley. Volunteers used heavy-duty weed wrenches to make sure the plants would not grow back anytime soon. The plants were then used to create habitat areas for small critters.
The congregations include members of the Unitarian Universalist Congregation of Whidbey Island, St. Augustine’s in-the-Woods-Episcopal, Langley United Methodist and St. Hubert Catholic Church.

County reviews flood mitigation plan with FEMA By JANIS REID South Whidbey Record Property owners facing flood risk will be under the county’s microscope in the coming months. The Federal Emergency Management Administration, or FEMA, started its regular review of county floodrelated regulations as part of the National Flood Insurance Program. Flooding remains the nation’s most deadly and highest risk hazard, according to John Graves with FEMA’s regional office. Still, FEMA staff working in the flood program are on the lookout for all potential
hazards. The National Food Insurance Program functions under the Mitigation Division of FEMA, which also takes into account potential hazards like tsunamis, earthquakes, floods and landslides such as the one experienced in Oso in March. “It’s a big circle we hope to improve,” Program Specialist Michael Riedy said. Island County has opted to participate in the National Flood Insurance Program since 1975. The program provides more than $248 million in flood insurance coverage to the 990 resident policy holders.
According to FEMA documents, 130 flood claims have been filed in Island County since 1978. Riedy met with Island County staff late last year to perform a field inspection of at-risk properties. As a result of that visit, Riedy said in a letter sent last month that FEMA’s major concerns are whether the county’s floodplain regulations are current, and if the permitting and habitat assessment procedures are compliant with county code. “The county has some deficiencies, which must be corrected,” Riedy wrote to the county.
FEMA has provided a list of 130 properties for which the county must provide permits, elevation certificates and habitat assessments. FEMA initiates a Community Assistance Visit every 5-10 years to ensure the county is keeping up its part of the program by assisting residents in preparing their properties for possible flooding. Andy Griffin, floodplain administrator for Island County, said this visit yielded a longer list of properties of concern. Riedy said this is likely due to new technology that assists analysts in identifying
potential flood areas much more accurately than before. Riedy said they were able to use tools like Google Earth and other new programs to overlay parcel data with the flood plain data. This led to a longer, and perhaps more accurate, list of hazard areas. In contrast to other areas around Puget Sound, Island County does not have a major river system. Because of this, the county does not experience the magnitude or frequency of flooding as neighboring counties, according to Island County documents. Instead, frequently flooded areas are coasts subject to major storm events that may
Treasurer pushes supplement completion deadline By JANIS REID South Whidbey Record The Island County treasurer told county commissioners this month that the backlog of unprocessed property supplements will take at least another month to complete. “It has created some very difficult situations, which is why I have as many people working on it and they are working overtime to get them done,” Treasurer Ana Maria Nuñez said at a recent work session. Supplemental taxes are additional secured taxes that are due when property undergoes a change in ownership or new construction. The additional tax is owed because the county assessor is required to immediately adjust the Jan. 1 value to reflect the new value of the property. The supplemental tax is due upon the mailing of the bill. It is payable in two installments. An audit finding last year determined that the county
was backlogged on processing property tax supplements because “Island County lacked adequate internal controls to ensure timely processing of property tax adjustments.” Nuñez told county commissioners last year that the supplements would be caught up by June. But this month, Nunez said they will not be completed until July. Nuñez said her office has struggled with keeping up with the property supplements since she started in 2005.
Nuñez said the county was on the verge of catching up by 2008, but the recession forced the county to lay off employees, including one fulltime worker in the treasurer’s office, followed by another in 2009. While her office has made good progress on the backlog, Nunez said a staff member took some unexpected leave, and that contributed to the delay. Commissioner Helen Price Johnson stressed the need to get caught up as soon as possible.

“I continue to hear from people who are frustrated waiting for their supplement to be processed,” Price Johnson said. “As the real estate market has heated up, the more trouble and complications it creates.” In early 2012, Island County

pose a significant risk to personal property. Riedy said that while spring tends to be a flood season for Washington, Island County tends to see more flooding events in winter. He added that there is a 30-day waiting period for the insurance to become effective. For more information, visit www.fema.gov/national-floodinsurance-program

Clinton man loses claim for Whidbey property By JESSIE STENSLAND South Whidbey Record A Clinton man who maintains he is the chief of a Native American tribe that owns all of Whidbey Island recently lost his claim on a Central Whidbey property. Reuel E. Cohn, however, said the case is not over and he plans to appeal to the federal courts. Cohn said he is a direct descendant of an Indian chief named Pat-Ka-Nam, who was a signatory of the 1855 Treaty Point Elliott on behalf of the Snoqualmoo Tribe. He claims all of Whidbey Island is a reservation set aside for the tribe and that he is the chief. Cohn originally filed a lien against the “game farm” near Coupeville in 1994. The state owned the property at the time and used it to raise pheasants that were later released. The state sold the property to the Au Sable Institute in 1999 for $700,000. The campus later became known at the Pacific Rim Institute. Under the terms of the sale, the state agreed to defend the title if Cohn tried to press the lien. In June of 2013, Cohn drafted a “claim in lien” claiming that he was owed $20
million; he recorded the document with the county auditor, according to court documents. As a result, the state Attorney General’s Office filed a motion in Island County Superior Court April 1, 2014, asking the judge to strike and release the “nonconsensual common law lien.” The motion states that there’s no federally recognized Snoqualmoo Tribe. Cohn claims that there are about 200 members. Cohn filed complaints in federal court in 1995 and in 2011 “seeking the return of Whidbey Island to him and his descendants and Whidbey Island returned to its reservation status as it always should have been according to the Point Elliott Treaty and Treaty Map,” the motion states. Both federal lawsuits were dismissed without prejudice. On April 21, H. Clarke Harvey, a superior court judge pro tem, agreed with the Attorney General’s Office that Cohn did not “state any statutory, contractual or consensual basis for such liens.” He signed a motion striking and releasing the lien and awarding costs and attorney’s fees to the state.

Editorial New boat company demonstrates hope for harbor project South Whidbey Harbor’s expansion, the longplanned, shaped and reshaped project that sustained too many set backs to count, is finally complete. A ribbon cutting ceremony took place Friday afternoon and many a dignitary, from local officials to state and federal lawmakers, was in attendance. They played instrumental roles in making the project a reality, and their efforts should be congratulated, but perhaps the most important entity there was not a person at all. It was Whidbey Island Charters or, rather, what it represents. The fledgling business held a grand opening the very same afternoon, making the company the first to take advantage of the new facility and the embodiment of a long-pursued and at times controversial dream. The marina expansion is, first and foremost, a vision of economic development. The idea behind the project is simple: provide more space and waterbased businesses and tourists may just spend a bit more time, and a few bucks, on the South End. To see this dream come true, Port of South Whidbey leaders supplied the sweat, taxpayers footed the bill — many unwillingly — and they were rewarded with a brand new business on the day of the ribbon cutting. Whidbey Island Charter’s owners say it was the expansion that pushed them to open their doors. Like a barnacle to a freshly painted boat hull, the new floats were enticing enough to risk opening a new business largely based of the fickle tides of tourism. Profitable marine businesses, particularly those geared toward the visitor industry, are inherently challenging to make profitable. Many sink in the first year, yet some succeed and we wish the South End’s newest marine merchants the best. But whatever the company’s fate, it is already a measure of success, for it’s the first evidence that this long and difficult project is doing what it was designed to do — attract new business and foster economic development. May Whidbey Island Charters be the first of many new water-based businesses to call South Whidbey Harbor home.

article describing the rubber band bracelet fundraiser our second graders are doing for the Oso mudslide. Reporter Celeste Erickson did a terrific job of taking statements from numerous students and creating a heartwarming story that told how this got started by two second grade students and has grown. It captured the joy and pride these students feel. The story inspired more students to join us in making/selling bracelets, and the publicity has brought in more money. We have had to set a new goal, because we surpassed our goal of $300. Your story put a smile on a lot of faces, and it will enable us to help more people impacted by the Oso slide.

Stop Dreaming! Is this the year you’ll
buy a home or are you just dreaming? Although most home purchases begin as a dream, they actually occur as the result of a commitment – in fact, two commitments. The dream phase is vital because it transforms the fantasies of the mind into a picture of reality. It allows a home to take shape in the imagination without cost, boundaries, or limitations. From the dream phase evolves the future home. The commitment stage has two parts. First, a home purchase requires an emotional commitment. Those responsible must be confident that it is the right time to buy. They must have substantial reasons to begin the process, and they must be prepared to take the actions required to bring their dream to fruition. The second commitment is financial. Buying a home requires cash for a downpayment, creditworthiness to secure a mortgage, and the earning power to liquidate the debt. The confidence to make this commitment can be gained by visiting a mortgage lender. By analyzing your financial picture in advance, the lender can offer a loan commitment at a specific interest rate, giving you the buying power needed to make your purchase. Make your dream a reality this year. Take the three steps: dream, commit, and commit. Before you know it, you’ll be moving to a new reality. Really!

Falcons secure first-ever Archbishop Wildcat sweep By BEN WATANABE South Whidbey Record Brooms were out in full force as South Whidbey baseball swept Archbishop Murphy for the first time after a 2-0, combined no-hitter victory April 25 in front of a home crowd. “For us and for the program, that was just a huge series,” said Falcon head coach Tom Fallon. “Going into the season, I knew the league was going to be very, very competitive,” he added. Players celebrated only briefly before being corralled by Fallon for postgame handshakes with the Wildcats — a sign of sportsmanship Fallon emphasizes with South Whidbey, win or lose. Since the Wildcats joined the Cascade Conference in 2004, the Falcons had not won all three games in a season series until this year. After looking through the Falcon baseball records, Fallon said the last time South Whidbey defeated Archbishop Murphy was in 2008. “Sometimes it’s hard for those teenage kids to control their emotions,” he said.
Grace Swanson/ The Record
Charlie Patterson pitched for the first part of the game, April 25, helping lead the Falcons to a victory against the Wildcats. The Falcons used a bit of small ball in the fifth inning. Mo Hamsa, a Falcon junior, got on base with a single. Trent Fallon, a junior, laid

down a bunt to move Hamsa to second base — scoring position. With two outs, senior CJ Sutfin knocked a line drive that brought Hamsa
home for the first score. Pitcher Charlie Patterson guided the Falcons through the fifth inning before being relieved by
senior Colton Sterba in the sixth inning. With a runner on base, Sterba got one batter to knock into fielder’s choice for the first out and then recorded a 1-6-3 double play to keep Archbishop Murphy scoreless. Sterba, who went 2-for-3 with a RBI, hit a two-out, RBI single that drove home junior Brent Piehler to pad their lead in the bottom of the sixth. The senior ended up finishing the game with a strikeout, nearly closing the series the way it began: with Sterba on the mound, fanning a Wildcat batter. South Whidbey had taken the series after a 5-4 victory Wednesday at Archbishop Murphy High School. The Falcons led much of the game after scoring two runs in the second inning. Piehler and senior Nick Bennett were on base with singles until Hamsa drove them in with a two RBI double. The Wildcats tied the game after a run in the fourth and one in the fifth. SEE BASEBALL, A9

the game with a varied offense that found scores from all over the field. Jones struck first after he intercepted a reset kick by the Cougars’ goalie, moved the ball from his left to his right foot and sent it into the net. He followed that goal with a cross pass to Leiberman who headed it in for the 2-0 lead. Davin Kesler, playing in his third match of the season after missing the first half with an injury, scored his first goal of the year. Lakewood answered with its only goal on a header to cut the lead to 3-1.
South Whidbey rebounded with a header goal by da Rosa on a pass from Kesler. Leiberman finished the match with another goal assisted by Kesler. The Falcons recorded 18 shots on goal and allowed the Cougars 11, most of which were struck outside the 18-yard marker. Robbins credited the midfielders, especially senior Trey Adams, for keeping the Cougars at bay. As of press time Tuesday, South Whidbey had three Cascade

April 25. Three Falcons scored, with senior Jaidin Jones and sophomore Lucas Leiberman each booting in two goals. Kai da Rosa, a junior, also had a goal to keep pace as the team’s leading scorer. “I think we put together our best game yet,” said Falcon co-head coach Emerson “Skip” Robbins. “We’re a team that can be very dangerous,” he added. “We can attack centrally, we can attack from the left, we can attack from the right.” The Falcons controlled the lead throughout

BASEBALL CONTINUED FROM A8
South Whidbey took the lead for good with three runs in the sixth inning. Ricky Muzzy, a sophomore, started with a single. Patterson laid down a bunt and reached
base safely. Piehler, who went 2-for-3 at the plate, drove Muzzy home with a RBI single. Bennett, who hit 3-for-3, scored Patterson on a single. Archbishop Murphy drew close with two more runs in the sixth inning, but South Whidbey held them at bay for the victory. “It was a squeaker,” Fallon said. Another close call befell the Falcons on Monday as they visited Granite Falls to take on the Tigers, who won 4-3 in an extra-inning game. South Whidbey scored three runs in the second

But the Falcons struggled the rest of the game bringing home base runnners. “It was one of those just painful games where we had opportunity all game long,” Fallon said. “That’s what happens with a good pitcher.” Granite Falls scored two runs in the sixth inning which tied the game 3-3. The Tigers won the game with a walkoff RBI in the eighth inning. Playoffs begin next week, but the Falcons’ position is not certain. South Whidbey needs to win one more game to clinch the top seed in the 1A District 1 playoffs because it lost two games to the only other 1A team in the league: Coupeville. South Whidbey will honor its seniors before the game against Granite Falls at 3:45 p.m. Wednesday.

Christie wanted to grasp the settings of Tilawn’s experience and make the animation realistic, so he spent some time researching the area in person. In the narrative, Tilawn describes applying for a job at a nearby Wendy’s but was turned down because he looked too intimidating. Christie hopes to show that struggle and shed light on the difficulty of applying for work. It’s not the easiest thing to go get a job, and is a huge obstacle for some teens, but young people are resilient, Christie learned. “They keep fighting,” he said. Enser said she wanted to have the audience question if they would initially judge him, but in the end reflect on the changing perspective of what being homeless means. “For me, it’s really about disrupting stereotypes,” Enser said. “We chose a subject that kind of fits that superficial stereotype.” Christie said using the medium of animation makes dense subject material, such as homelessness, more accessible. “When some things are difficult and intense, this is a way to

Help Mother Mentors support local families at tea By BETTY FREEMAN For The Record When you’re home alone with a new baby and maybe a toddler too, it helps to have support and a friendly helping hand. That’s what Mother Mentors do. Mother Mentors started in 2009 on South Whidbey as a grassroots effort to support the real and practical needs of families. Initially, the group operated under the umbrella of the Readiness to Learn Foundation, but in May 2012, they incorporated as a nonprofit organization. Mother Mentors volunteers have all experienced the uncertainty of new motherhood and the feeling of being alone with a formidable job to do. They volunteer a few hours a week for three to six months to help parents of newborns and young children. The help might be in the form of playing with the toddler while a

instead they offer practical help and a listening ear for new moms. Mother Mentors Director Kate McVay describes them as “a great group of women whose hearts and souls are in the right place.” Currently, Mother Mentors has about 35 volunteers. Prospective volunteers are screened by the Washington Division of Child and Family Services and by the Washington State Patrol, and attend training sessions taught by child development professionals prior to seeing clients. Mentors are taught to recognize signs of stress in the home, such as postpartum depression or child mistreatment, and to refer the client to community resources for
additional support. Mentors attend monthly meetings to share experiences and learn new skills from community professionals. Mother Mentors President Linda Ade-Ridder said trained volunteer mentors work with about 15-20 families per year, and they’d like to expand to the North End. “About 80 babies are born each year on South Whidbey, while the North End has 800 births. We know the need is there, especially with military families, but we need more people to volunteer to be trained as mentors first,” said Ade-Ridder. Mother Mentors did expand their South End services in 2013 when they took over the Playscape program from the South Whidbey

Commons. Created in 2009, Playscape is a birth-to-kindergarten “play and learn” program for children and their caregivers. Playscape is free and is offered three mornings a week at the former South Whidbey Primary School, taking up two classrooms and providing plenty of interactive toys and activities. “It’s an excellent program that offers social time for parents and caregivers while giving babies, toddlers and preschoolers space to play and learn in an educational setting,” said Julia Sewell, one of two facilitators of the Playscape program. “Playscape is not a preschool or child care program, though we have some organized group and school-readiness activities,” said Sewell. “All of our activities can be done at home too.” Parents or caregivers must accompany their children and are encouraged to play with them and also interact with other caregivers. “Parents and caregivers can use the time to socialize with one another and talk about parenting issues and developmental stages,” said Sewell. “It’s a great meeting place.”
April Sprague just moved to South Whidbey from Spokane, and she found Playscape for her daughter Harper, almost 2. “We come here for a chance to socialize and for Harper to learn how to share with others,” said Sprague. “It’s given me an opportunity to make new friends too.” Sprague also found her pediatrician, Dr. Bob Wagner, through a Playscape referral. Wagner has been practicing on South Whidbey since 1989. For his service to South Whidbey parents and their children, he will be honored by the Mother Mentors organization at their annual fundraising tea on May 1. Funding for Mother Mentors programs comes mostly from private donations and small grants. The tea on May 1 is a fundraiser as well as a chance to educate supporters about the Mother Mentors program and Playscape. The tea will be held from 2 to 4 p.m. at St. Augustine’s Episcopal Church in Freeland For details about Mother Mentors, email wamothermentors@gmail.com or call 360-321-1484 or toll-free 1-888265-6151, or go to whidbeymothermentors.org

existing facility in Clinton. Changes in the economy, affecting the district’s ability to acquire revenue bonds, and laws surrounding critical access hospitals that reduced reimbursements for outpatient services, have put those plans on hold and the commissioners are now considering selling the property. The circumstances surrounding the purchase are somewhat unclear. All the commissioners and leading hospital officials involved in the deal — then chief executive officer Scott Rhine and then chief financial officer
WWW.SOUTHWHIDBEYRECORD.COM
Doug Bishop — are no longer with the district. Attempts to reach Rhine by press time Tuesday were unsuccessful, and Bishop did not return calls for comment Monday. Hospital spokeswoman Trish Rose, who was employed at the district in 2008 but was not involved in the decision-making process, said meeting minutes in 2007 indicate the hospital was initially looking at another property nearby when it stumbled across Gabelein’s land. There wasn’t a lot of land available in the area that fit the hospital’s needs, she said, and the decision was made to buy it. Rose speculated that the board believed this was a good buy at a time when land values were at
Page A13
their peak prior to the real estate crash later that year. “I think they were acting in a very good faith effort to improve service to South Whidbey, which is something we’ve wanted to do for years,” Rose said. “I think they thought they were making a good purchase,” she said. “In hindsight, it wasn’t.” Whether the hospital will sell the property also remains unclear. The board did discuss the issue this month, but agreed only to discuss the possible sale again at a future board meeting. Rose could not say whether the situation would spark any new policies concerning future land purchases, and attempts to reach
Anne Tarrant, president of the hospital board, were unsuccessful for this story. There may be good reasons not to shackle a public agency hands when it comes to buying property, such as instances when quick action is required for preservation, but Smith said laws can always be tailored to address special circumstances. “You can always create formulas ... for moving forward with these properties that safeguard the public interest,” she said. And whether the hospital makes any internal policy changes or not, the Clinton lawmaker said she will be looking into the matter carefully. “I’ll certainly be following up,” Smith said.

scale, aiding the fire district and the city. South Whidbey Fire/EMS Chief Rusty Palmer said previously firefighters and EMS responders were hindered by water access that’s tide dependent. Out of 34 calls for service needed from the water, they failed to launch two-thirds of the time, he said. Now with the expanded facility, and a new boat, responders will be able to reach the 400 homes that don’t have appropriate road access to firetrucks. Langley Mayor Fred McCarthy said it has been exciting to watch the transformations and is looking forward to future projects connecting the city with the harbor. “The dedication of this project signals a new era of boating and marine life in the city,” McCarthy said.

Forgotten Wish
Employment General
It’s been 6 years now I’m still left with words unspoken With only memories to hold on to And hearts forever broken
Dad, I am who I am today I can’t go back and change the past If I could I would change God’s plan Of how he took you away so fast
With every moment I passed up Each phone call that I missed If I could travel back in time This is what I’d wish
Somewhere up above I can hear footsteps in the clouds I know you’re hard at work On a path to show me how
That I never became an addict And spent more time with my Pops Whether it was on the firing range Or just fishing off the rocks
Oh how to beat my disease of addiction Dad, show me the path to take Until I see a sign from up above At these crossroads I will wait
I was blind to the fact Of the ways you showed you cared It’s too late now And it just doesn’t seem fair
There’s not a day that goes by That you are not forever missed If I could just turn back the clocks of time You would be my only wish
Some days are harder than others Through dreams is our connection It’s those memories I cherish the most And the pictures in my possession
We miss you Dad, Garrett, Corey & JJ

NOTICE Washington State law requires wood sellers to provide an invoice (receipt) that shows the s e l l e r ’s a n d b u y e r ’s name and address and the date delivered. The invoice should also state the price, the quantity delivered and the quantity upon which the price is based. There should be a statement on the type and quality of the wood. When you buy firewood write the seller’s phone number and the license plate number of the delivery vehicle. The legal measure for firewood in Washington is the cord or a fraction of a cord. Estimate a c o r d by v i s u a l i z i n g a four-foot by eight-foot space filled with wood to a height of four feet. Most long bed pickup trucks have beds that are close to the four-foot by 8-foot dimension.
