Lucia Bride Carly Tizzano and Viking reenactors set a bonfire ablaze for Julefest on Dec. 6, at Muriel Iverson Williams Waterfront Park. Vikings escorted Tizzano to the bonfire, where Magnus the Wide told the story of Saint Lucia (283-304), who distributed her riches to the poor and was martyred for refusing to burn Richard D.

POULSBO — A Poulsbo Police Department officer is on paid administrative leave pending an investigation by the Washington State Patrol into an allegation made by his estranged wife, a Kitsap County Sheriff’s officer. “They are going through marital strife. There’s a lot of emotions right now,” said Lt. Bruce Lantz, assistant division commander of the Washington State Patrol. He added, “There was no physical contact.” Poulsbo Police Chief Alan Townsend would not disclose the identity or rank of his officer, saying only that Washington See SUSPENDED, Page A7

POULSBO — Ray Diehl woke to a stormy morning Dec. 9 at his waterfront home on the western shore of Liberty Bay. The waves where smashing against the concrete bulkhead in front of his home, and ultimately splashing over as winds rushed
through the bay. Diehl focused further off shore, though, and noticed the storm was at odds with the Queen of Sheba, a 105-foot wooden yacht anchored in Liberty Bay. And the boat was losing. “It broke loose and they tried to push it up the bay, but it was maybe 40-45 mile an hour winds
and they couldn’t do it,” Diehl said after the yacht’s anchor broke loose from the bay’s floor. The record high wind of the See SHEBA, Page A7

Local fund grows to $9,281 Poulsbo Lions/Raab Foundation Bellringer POULSBO — Donations this week to the Poulsbo Lions/Raab Foundation Bellringer Fund brought the to-date total to $9,281. A donation to the Poulsbo Lions for another cause was inadvertently added to the Poulsbo Lions/Raab Foundation Bellringer Fund total the previous week, fund chairman John S. Macdonald reported. The to-date campaign total excludes that amount. Still, the fund is on its way to meeting or exceeding the 2013 campaign total of $32,431. The fund helps North Kitsap residents in crisis meet basic needs and emergency expenses. Donations are tax-deductible and can be mailed to P.O. Box 1244, Poulsbo, WA 98370. Donations are also accepted at the North Kitsap Herald, 19351 8th Ave. NE, Poulsbo; and Union Bank, 19950 7th Ave. NE, Poulsbo. WEEK 3 Reitan family: $500, in memory of Barb. Marion Hansen: $50, in memory of loved ones. Rosemary and Dolph Jaeger: $2,000, in memory of Diane Hauger. Tolman Kirk Clucas: $500. Charles Morgan: $100.

IN OUR OPINION
Local fund meets needs that are close to home I
f you gave to the Poulsbo Lions/Raab Foundation Bellringer Fund in 2013, you made a big difference in someone’s life — possibly someone you know. Winter is a tough time for a lot of people. As the temperature dips, heating costs go up. As the holidays near, many families face tough financial choices: Food, heat, or holidays. The choice is often simple: Skimp on one so you can pay for the other. There are many signs the economy is getting better, but some of those signs are superficial. The unemployment rate in Kitsap County is 6.2 percent, compared to 4.5 percent in King County, 4.7 percent in San Juan County, and 4.8 percent in Snohomish County. While that’s slightly better than this time last year, and while we’re better off than Grays Harbor County (9.9 percent), that’s still 7,000 people in our county who are without work. Another gauge of how the economy is doing: At North Kitsap Fishline, which provides emergency help and food to households in need, 700 households moved on to self-sufficiency. But they were replaced by 600 more. “People are getting jobs, but they’re not living-wage jobs,” executive director Mary Nader said. “Three-fourths of the jobs [available] are minimum-wage jobs.” What helps people get out of a rough patch? Neighbors like you, and the Poulsbo Lions/Raab Foundation Bellringer Fund. Since its inception in 1946, the Poulsbo Lions/Raab Foundation Bellringer Fund has helped provide food, emergency shelter and emergency financial assistance to North Kitsap residents in need. There is no overhead; every penny goes back into the community, according to John S. Macdonald, co-chairman of the fund. In 2013, North Kitsap residents donated $32,431 to the fund. Of that, $5,815 ensured 100 local families were able to enjoy holiday meals at home. Another $26,000 was distributed to North Kitsap Fishline, ShareNet, and St. Vincent de Paul, to help 350-400 households pay rent, energy bills, and meet emergency needs. Organizations like North Kitsap Fishline and St. Vincent de Paul Society are coming up with creative solutions to help people meet their basic needs. Fishline, for example, has a home share program, where it matches people who need a place to live with people who need help with their mortgage. It also connects clients looking for work with companies and job service providers. But to meet immediate needs, like food and shelter, Fishline and the others make good use of the money donated to the Poulsbo Lions/Raab Foundation Bellringer Fund. Fishline and St. Vincent de Paul are a critical part of the safety net in North Kitsap. They are there for you and your family — and your fellow community members — when needed. Contribute to the Poulsbo Lions/Raab Foundation Bellringer Fund and keep the safety net strong. (Consider it a holiday gift to yourself — you make a difference in the community, and you get a tax deduction). Donations to the Poulsbo Lions/Raab Foundation Bellringer Fund can be mailed to P.O. Box 1244, Poulsbo, WA 98370. Donations to the fund are also accepted at the North Kitsap Herald, 19351 8th Ave. NE, Poulsbo; and at Union Bank, 19950 7th Ave. NE, Poulsbo. Donors’ names are published each week in the Herald.

LETTERS Celebrate our local police and the good they do Since the news lately has been so full of the story of Ferguson and then, today, about a grand jury in New York deciding not to indict a case there, it seems that law enforcement folks are having a tough time. Likewise, citizens are doubting the people who have been tasked with keeping order. There are race and discrimination issues at play, and I have been appalled at some of what has been shared on social media. But I think that one way through this is to support and value our local officers for the job they do. I appreciate them on several levels. As a parent of kids at the high school, I was glad that officers were on campus as a presence after a student had made threats. As a pastor, I have had the chance to watch (and help a little) one officer help a local homeless person with her struggles. As one who spends a great deal of time in Poulsbo, I respect the way that our police force goes about their business. So, I was wondering if there might be something to do to show our local police force that we value them and the job that they are tasked to do? My hope would be that if a community and police force can work together and be supportive in times when we do not have crisis, then some crises might be averted, and when big events do happen, there is a base of relationship from which to begin. Thank you, Poulsbo police and all of our local law enforcement people. Keep up the good work. And community members, as our area continues to grow more diverse in many ways, let us work together to understand one another and to celebrate what each of us adds to this place. Peace, KENT SHANE Pastor First Lutheran Church, Poulsbo
Quick thinking leads to arrest of fraud suspects I would like to publicly thank our police departments -- Poulsbo,
Bainbridge Island, and Seattle. On Dec. 9, two suspicious people walked into our store. They attempted to buy jewelry items that totaled more than $8,000 by using fraudulent gift cards. When we asked for ID, they quickly left our store. Our employees wrote down the color and make of the car and the license plate. I contacted Poulsbo police. Detective La France showed up and took our statement, as well as the statement of another business owner where they had tried to use the same fraudulent cards. By chance, an off-duty officer saw these same two people trying to make a purchase earlier in the day and remembered they said they were from Seattle. Poulsbo Police then contacted Bainbridge Island Police and the ferry system and had them look for the car. By pure luck, the car was on a ferry heading to Seattle. They were met by police that arrested one on warrants and impounded the car to be searched later. Thanks to smart and quick thinking by our police, many businesses were saved from potential losses. My sincerest thanks to our police force. RICHARD KOVEN Owner Dahlquist’s Fine Jewelry Poulsbo

Write a letter and change a life A hand-written letter is a powerful tool. Especially when combined with thousands of others. Amnesty International uses this tool to put pressure on governments to shine a light on forgotten prisoners. This year, the Kitsap County chapter of Amnesty International is again joining this effort through its annual Write for Rights event. The public is invited to join us as we gather to learn about seven cases of injustice — from human rights defender Liu Ping in China to a beaten, tortured youth in Nigeria — and then write letters on their behalf. It’s a life-changing experience and it works. Every year, Amnesty International campaigns help release prisoners, improve their conditions, or further the cause for basic human rights. Please join us on Dec. 13, 3-4:30 p.m. at the Bainbridge Island Library, 1270 Madison Ave N. Write a letter and change a life — including yours.

May we see the season through the eyes of a child P
oulsbo’s Christmas tree is lit, the Viking adorned with lights, presents and a Santa Claus hat. Downtown shop windows are painted and my car radio plays nearly-constant Christmas tunes. A magical part of the year is here. I am a child again. For the third time. My first childhood was, not surprisingly, when I was a youngster in Wyoming. Greybull was a wonderful place to be a kid. It was small — population 2,286 — so everyone knew almost everyone else. We had Shell Creek for fishing, the grease woods for hide-and-seek and building forts — almost our own kid world. We had parks and ball fields, and big, wide streets to play on. It was a natural, enjoyable, safe initial childhood. But, as happens, I grew up. Soon my interests were sports and girls and becoming an adult. My first childhood remained a fond memory as I matriculated through school, started my business, fell in love, married, and had children. What could be better?

TOLMAN’S TALES By JEFF TOLMAN When my older son, Chris, was born, tales from my youth emerged. As I tried to get the little guy to go to sleep (a part of life he fought nightly), I would tell stories of hunting magpies with my .22 rifle for the nickel bounty, of being dropped off at Shell Falls in the morning, fishing pole and lunch in hand, to traverse to The Big Rock by 6 p.m. to get picked up, of memorable games of kickthe-can and whiffle ball. Whether the stories’ content or my delivery, often
the adventures of my first childhood quickly drove my baby to sleep. When Chris, and later his brother Andy, learned to walk, new interactions became possible. First, hide-and-seek, then playing catch and roller hockey. Under the guise of spending time with my children (attempting to be a good dad) I was a kid again. My shoulder would ache from throwing balls for an hour, and my forearms were often bruised from stopping hockey pucks. I, and many other adults, coached our kids’ soccer, baseball and basketball teams — teaching, in theory; being an old kid, in fact. Almost always with a smile. My second childhood was joyous because it took

when we are together. Years ago, as part of a personal injury case, a doctor explained why children belly laugh and old people don’t. There is, according to the physician, a change in brain chemistry over time. As we age we get more serious, retrospective, and goal oriented. We laugh less often and less deeply. This evolution is a malady we call “growing up,” though in many ways it is, really, more “growing down.” My third childhood helps retard such “growth.” With my grandkids, I laugh deeply and smile often. The adult world seems far away when a grandparent is playing trucks, baking seasonal cookies, telling an adventure story, painting

Soon, cars and school, girls and friends replaced our games of catch and roller hockey. My second childhood faded as my kids matriculated through school, started jobs, fell in love and married.

pornography and bikini-barista stands as being “legal forms.” And even though these businesses are considered legal, it is not uncommon to find illegal activity through them. “Essentially within the legal forms of the sex industry, there are almost always illegal forms of sexual activity going on,” she said. “For example, in the bikini barista scene, we know that there has been prostitution going on. In strip clubs, we know there has been prostitution going on. Any time you have someone in that industry, they are at grave risk for falling down that rabbit hole.” Then there are simply illegal activities, like prostitution, much of which is organized through gangs
and through online services. The “melting pot for exploitation” is what led Ludlow to form Scarlet Road in 2009, with Jana Otte and Victoria Hudson. By 2012, it was an official nonprofit. They have an office in Silverdale, but serve the Kitsap region. Ludlow notes the three founders came to the cause through their individual faiths, but Scarlet Road is not faith-based. Women are not required to adhere to a faith to receive their help. And they do provide help. Scarlet Road has been busy. “The reality is (prostitution) is prevalent,” Ludlow said. “It’s an underground issue. People don’t recognize it’s happening in the community. It is happening in our community. People need to realize (Scarlet Road) is a social service we

need to support.” In 2014, Scarlet Road has assisted five girls through its after-care program, which helps to provide a path out of the sex industry with jobs, education assistance, and trauma support. “All the things that will help them be successful and figure out what the next step in life is going to be,” Ludlow said. Of the five girls, most of them came out of the strip club industry, according to Ludlow. “Each of them experiencing exploitation. Someone was taking advantage of them and they were forced to do things against their will,” Ludlow said. “We’ve had five girls go through our after-care program but we’ve come in contact with about 30 unique girls this year,” she said. “Unique girls” means new contacts, not women the organization has had

contact with before. “We have had girls contact us directly. We work pretty closely with the juvenile detention center and other youth organizations in the county,” Ludlow said. “Our typical situation would be girls around the ages of 15-22,” she said. “And most of them are either local girls that have been recruited from the Tacoma and Seattle area.” Scarlet Road is a nonprofit run mostly by volunteers. It is largely supported by donations and small grants. Donations are tax deductible, and the majority of funds go directly to assisting the girls it helps.

Sheba
With its starboard side facing the wind, the Queen of Sheba is blown past Waterfront Park and toward the north end of Liberty Bay, dragging its anchor, on Dec. 9.
Continued from page A1 morning of Dec. 9 was 37 miles per hour, at around 7:53 a.m. High tide was nearly 12 feet at 7:33 a.m. It was around that time that the Queen of Sheba’s anchor broke loose from the bay’s floor. “Then it was dodging other boats,” Diehl said. But the yacht wasn’t able to avoid every boat. It collided with a sailboat anchored in the bay, knocking that boat’s anchor loose. The sailboat was soon blowing in the wind as well, trailing behind the Queen of Sheba. The yacht had another, smaller boat rafted to it. The small cruiser was used to move the yacht, which has no rudder or power, according to a source with the Poulsbo Police Department. “That’s what pushed it in here about two months ago,” Diehl said. As the wind claimed the Queen of Sheba, blowing it

north toward shallow water at the head of the bay, the cruiser was not powerful enough to keep the yacht from blowing further. As the two boats approached shallow water, the cruiser detached and left the yacht to fend for itself. The cruiser made its way to the Port of Poulsbo’s marina. The wind was blowing so severely against the cruiser that it took five attempts to dock. By 11:33 a.m., the
yacht had dragged its anchor from south of the Port of Poulsbo’s marina, to the north of it, and it wasn’t slowing down. By 12:30 p.m., it had struck the muddy bottom of the bay, near Bovela Lane on the western shoreline. Low tide was at 1 p.m. Poulsbo Police were made aware of the vessel’s situation. Officers went out in the police boat on Dec. 10 to check on the vessel, as the Queen of Sheba
was still at the north end of Liberty Bay. Officers towed the boat out of Liberty Bay, under the impression that friends of the Queen of Sheba were coming to tow it further, ultimately to Port Townsend. Police took the vessel as far at Lemolo, just across from Keyport. But on the morning of Dec. 11, the Queen of Sheba was still off the shores of Lemolo and possibly touching the muddy bottom of the bay there

He expects the decision of whether to prosecute will be up to a prosecuting attorney in another county, to avoid conflict of interest. Townsend said he put his officer on paid administrative leave on Dec. 6 after the Sheriff’s Department notified him that day of the investigation. He said he expects to know more about the State Patrol’s investigation by the end of the week.
“We will also be doing an internal investigation — an administrative investigation — to make sure there was no violation of
our policy and procedures,” Townsend said. Sheriff’s spokesman Deputy Scott Wilson confirmed that the allegation

securing boats drifting in Liberty Bay. However, if there is a fuel spill, the port will assist at the request of law enforcement, Miller said. Poulsbo Police Chief Al Townsend said the department had received calls about three boats adrift over the morning. The boats have been monitored from shore, “but if it appears they will create property damage to other boats or objects, we will send out the police boat to try to re-anchor them or try to tow them into a port slip,” he emailed the Herald. The Queen of Sheba was built in 1943, primarily of oak and fir, in Stockton, California, by Stephens Marine, according to an info page on CharterWorld. com. The yacht is not a charter boat. The Queen of Sheba “can sleep up to 10 passengers on board and has around 5 professional crew,” the info page stated.

as well. High wind warnings for an approaching storm were issued on Dec. 11 by the National Weather Service. The incident on Dec. 9 was not the first time the yacht has lost a battle with the Liberty Bay winds. Approximately two weeks before it was blown south. “It got away last time the wind blew,” Diehl said. “It went over to between Scandia Point and Virginia Point. They brought it back out when it was nice again, and anchored it near the boathouse (in the middle of the bay).” “It doesn’t have any lights on it,” he said. “They always put it in the middle of the channel, too.” Since it was beached at the north end of the bay, the Queen of Sheba turned on its anchor lights.

Body found on beach between Kingston, Indianola By RICHARD D. OXLEY
roxley@northkitsapherald.com
KINGSTON — The body of an unknown man was discovered washed up on a Kingston beach the afternoon of Dec. 9. “At this point, we think the tide brought him in,” Kitsap County Sheriff’s Deputy Scott Wilson said. Very little is known about the body, Wilson said, as the investigation is barely under way.
“They have to document the scene,” Wilson said. “That’s critical. They got to get as much of that done before the tide comes in.” “The first order of business is to find the identity and notify the family,” Wilson said. “And determine a possible cause of death. That’s up to the forensic pathologist.” No indications of foul play were apparent at the scene.
“Nothing washed up around him that appeared to be weapons or things like that,” Wilson said. What is known is that a property owner spotted the body and called 911 shortly after 3 p.m. Sheriff’s deputies and medics arrived on the scene at around 4:30 p.m. The beach is located between Indianola and Kingston, off of the 21400 Block of President Point

Road. “A lot of those houses are high up on a bluff, but they have trails that go down to the beach,” Wilson said. It is not known how long the body has been there. The reporting party told
deputies that he had not gone down to the beach in a couple of weeks. Wilson said there was no identification on the body. What still remained on the body were sweatpants and one shoe, he said.
The body was turned over to the Kitsap County Coroner, who will determine the cause of death and how long the body has been deceased.
Pope wants DNR to pay for more of Port Gamble mill site cleanup By KIPP ROBERTSON
krobertson@northkitsapherald.com
PORT GAMBLE — Pope Resources is suing the state Department of Natural Resources, saying DNR is liable for cleaning up stateowned aquatic lands near the former sawmill site in Port Gamble. Pope Resources claims because DNR owned the aquatic lands surrounding the sawmill site at the time hazardous substances could have been released there, DNR is “strictly liable, … for all remedial action costs.”
Pope Resources originally entered into an agreement with DNR and Department of Ecology to provide $5 million to clean up the site, according to the lawsuit. However, Ecology “pressured” Pope to conduct a more extensive cleanup. Total cleanup costs are expected to be about $17 million. Pope Resources is asking for DNR to pay remedial action costs incurred during site cleanup. Pope is asking the court to hold DNR liable for future costs related to the site, and fees
related to the lawsuit. Pope Resources was created by Pope & Talbot in 1985. Pope & Talbot, Inc operated the sawmill for about 142 years before it shut down. Pope & Talbot transferred its real estate assets in Washington to Pope Resources, but retained ownership of the mill, according to court documents. Pope Resources eventually took over managing the town of Port Gamble, assuming $22.5 million See POPE, Page A9

Poulsbo mayor makes the case for more taxes, fees By RICHARD D. OXLEY
roxley@northkitsapherald.com
POULSBO — The Poulsbo City Council approved its 2015 budget on Dec. 10, and with it comes a few hikes in local taxes. “The budget we have today does have a rise in revenue,” Mayor Becky Erickson said at the meeting. “And that is a polite way of saying ‘raising taxes.’ ” Over the past month, Erickson has told the council and the public that before the 2015 budget would be voted on, with its

raises in fees, she wanted to make her case for it. She did just that at the council’s meeting. Poulsbo’s 2015 budget totals $27,188,323. It includes changes in stormwater rates — raising from $10.72 to $16.43 — and water utility rates, which will go up by 13 percent. The Water utility connection fee is also expected to go up to $4,227 from $1,750. The budget also incorporates a new 6 percent cable TV tax. The city is also pursuing the formation of a transpor-
tation benefit district, which would in turn implement a $20 car tab fee for residents of Poulsbo. The council has directed staff to draft the appropriate ordinances for the increases. The budget is expected to be voted on at the council’s Dec. 17 meeting. The rate increases may also be approved at that time. The 2015 budget takes all the new revenues into account. To defend them, Erickson preempted the meeting with her explanation. “We have systematically
Pope Resources filed a claim in the bankruptcy as one of the unsecured creditors. “No creditor of [Pope & Talbot] has attempted to claim that Pope Resources is the successor to any liability of [Pope & Talbot].” The lawsuit claims Pope Resources has “spent several million dollars on cleanup efforts related to the mill site uplands and the town portions of the Site.” The lawsuit alleges DNR
has “done very little to clean up the Site. Despite Ecology’s position that DNR is [potentially liable] and therefore liable for cleanup of the Site to the same extent as a private party, DNR has provided extremely minimal cleanup assistance to the private parties.” The lawsuit alleges that $5 million was enough to clean up the site.
held the line with the cost to the best of our ability, but we are offering more services either by regulation or by desire than we ever have in the history of our community,” Erickson said. “More service are being provided to more citizens with less staff.” “But we can’t go on that way,” she added. “So we are going to have to raise some fees.” Erickson boiled the num-
bers down. “Each person in 1999 paid about $1,600 (in property taxes),” she said. “In 2004, it was about $1,200. In 2013, it’s about $1,150.” “Our general fund relative to our population is falling,” Erickson said, noting that property taxes are capped at 1 percent raises each year. Poulsbo also has more services than it used to, both by obligation and by desire,
Erickson said, such as the Growth Management Act, Clean Water Act, increased auditing, and more. Then there’s the parks. Poulsbo has added seven in the last decade and purchased a recreation center. In the end, Poulsbo is bigger, swelling with services, and operating them at a bare minimum of employees and funding, according to Erickson.

POULSBO — Each expression of generosity has been warmer than the cups of hot cider and bags of hot popcorn Kate Long hands out at the Albertsons in Poulsbo Village. “It’s wonderful, because there are people out there who don’t have enough food this season,” Long said of the generosity she’s seen at her table in Albertsons. “One person gave $20. That was real generous, but every penny counts.” Holiday cheer from Long, her fellow clerks, and community volunteers have been rewarded with donations to North Kitsap Fishline. And in a big way: Albertsons is on track to raise $20,000 by Christmas for Fishline, which provides a host of services — including food — to help residents in need get out of a rough patch and back into self-sufficiency. Albertsons is raising money in several ways. Long and other courtesy clerks staff a table near

Continued from page A10 Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts have worked one-day shifts, collecting food and cash donations for Fishline. The Boy Scouts collected $820 in one day. “That was huge,” said Stephanie Buckner, Poulsbo Albertsons’ service operations manager. Legionnaires did pretty well too, collecting about $440 cash and 688 pounds

of food in a six-hour shift recently, Legion adjutant Don Spinar said Dec. 5. Regarding food donations, Spinar helps potential contributors by giving out bookmark-sized handouts that list the items Fishline needs. Spinar’s impressed — but not surprised — by the generosity. “I think people want to help out,” he said. “This is the fifth or sixth year we’ve done this, and we get great responses every year.”

another $10,000 before Christmas.” Last year, Albertsons raised a year-end holiday season total of $15,500. “Our goal this year is to get to $16,200. But I’m thinking we’re going to get closer to $19,000 or $20,000.” If that doesn’t make you feel as warm as a cup of hot cocoa or a nice warm hot dog — um, Albertsons barbecues on some weekends to encourage holiday donations, by the way — consider this:
“We’re reminded that there a lot of people out there in need this holiday season,” Buckner said. “Fishline is important because there’s a lot of families … I have a daughter of my own and it can be hard. I think about the kids and my heart goes out to those families.” Buckner is thankful for each donation. “Our Poulsbo community is pretty generous,” she said.

Performance yields applause — and generosity Poulsbo Community Orchestra raises $700, 245 pounds of food POULSBO — A concert by the all-volunteer Poulsbo Community Orchestra on Dec. 8 at Vinland Lutheran Church raised more than $700 and 245 pounds of food for North Kitsap Fishline. Bruce Mansfield, volunteer maestro and conductor of Navy Band Northwest, directed. Admission to the concert
was free. Donations for Fishline were accepted. It was the young orchestra’s third concert. An ensemble of the orchestra, Viking Brass, performed at Poulsbo’s Christmas Tree Lighting on Nov. 28 and for the Argosy cruise ship on Dec. 10. On Dec. 8, the orchestra performed classical works of Bizet, Elgar, and Mozart. The program concluded with Leroy Anderson’s “Sleigh Ride.” Guest conductor and arranger John Houde directed the orchestra on his arrangement of
“Winter Settings.” In addition, the orchestra’s Viking Brass ensemble performed carols for sing-along participation. Approximately 40 volunteer musicians rehearse weekly at West Sound Academy, and pay registration fees to the city’s Parks & Recreation Department for administering the program. Membership is open to musicians of high school age and older, with at least two years’ recent musical experience. There is no requirement for auditions. The Poulsbo Community
Orchestra was established in March and is a nonprofit 501(c)(3). It relies on donations to cover its expenses. In 2015, the orchestra plans to establish a scholarship for musicians pursuing the study of classical music. Mansfield is the conductor; Blake Yarbrough is director of music; Stephen Swann is the executive director. Online: www.facebook. com/PoulsboCommunity Orchestra

How the team fared in 2013: Though the Bucs graduated key varsity players at the end of the 2012-13 season, the 1314 team picked up right where they left off. The Bucs finished the regular season 14-4, ending with a seven-game win streak. The team advanced to the district tournament, where they survived up to the quarterfinals, before being eliminated by Renton. What to look for in 2014: The Bucs are a relatively young team this year. Head coach Gail Wicklein said the team is still learning and improving “to keep pushing to the next level.” The team’s top returners
Feb. 5 @ Port Angeles
include Drew Clark, Katelyn Carper and Skyler Bakken. The three players helped the 13-14 team get as far as it did, and will look to repeat that success this season. Along with the chance to repeat a playoff run, Wicklein said there is a strong JV team, which could benefit Varsity with any unforseen injuries; or at the very least make for another solid Varsity team in 2015-16. Coaches: Gail Wicklein, head coach; Cindy Thompson, assistant coach; Spike Hopper, assistant coach; James Getty, assistant coach; Laura Lewis, assistant coach; Lindsey Wicklein, assistant coach.

Bucs, Vikes meet for first conference basketball games POULSBO — The first conference game for the Kingston Buccaneers and North Kitsap Vikings will also be a rivalry game. The boys and girls basketball teams from both schools are scheduled to play one another Dec. 12. The Vikings boys’ team host the Bucs. JV games start at 5:15 p.m., Varsity at 7 p.m. The Kingston girls’ team hosts the Vikings. The Vikings boys’ team (3-1) is on a three-game win streak. They most recently defeated the Klahowya Eagles 75-52 on the road. The Bucs (2-1) most recently defeated Port Townsend 56-48 on the road. The boys teams are look-
ing for their first conference win and to catch up with the Sequim Wolves (1-0, 2-1). The Wolves played their first conference game against the Bremerton Knights (0-1, 0-4) Dec. 9. The Wolves do not play another conference game until the Dec. 17 game against the Bucs. The girls teams are looking to do the same. The Wolves’ girls team (1-0, 3-1) is the only team in the Olympic League with a conference win. The Vikings (2-0) defeated Rogers 57-53 on Dec. 6. They followed up with a 63-35 win over Klahowya on Dec. 9. The Bucs (2-1) most recently crushed Port Townsend 60-11 on Dec. 9.
VIKINGS GIRLS BASKETBALL
VIKINGS OVERVIEW How the team fared in 2013: The Vikings kicked off the 2012-13 season with a strong start. After losing their first non-conference game, the Vikings won five in a row. After one lose, the team added two more wins to its record. However, the second half of the season wasn’t as bright. Between Jan. 7 and Feb. 11, the Vikings were taking a lose for every win. The team ended up finishing 12-8, which was not enough to advance to Districts. What to look for in 2014: A group of the 2012-13 players return this season. That includes Rebekah Baugh, who signed to play with the Saint Martin’s Saints basketball team and compete in the NCAA Division II. Also returning are Holly Crowley, Melissa
Hamblet, Julia Ratcliff, Molly Lemmon, Jasmin Selembo and Ainsly Mackenzie. So many returners could make the difference for the team this season. The team also welcomes a new head coach. Penny Gienger takes over for Tim French. She said the team’s goals include finishing at the top of the league and to make the District palyoffs. Varsity team roster: Molly Lemmon, F; Holly Crowley, F; Melissa Hamblet, G; Olivia Selembo, G; Rebekah Baugh, G; Natalie Meyers, G; Ainsley Mackenzie, F; Jasmine Selembo, G; Anna Rutledge, C; Addie Keller, F; Megan Green, F; Julia Ratcliff, F; Talia Stenerson, C.

Senior Kevin Fox finished 11th in the 200-yard individual medley and 13th in the 100-yard butterfly. The 200-yard freestyle relay team took 11th. What to look for in 2014: Though the 2014-15 team will be without Kevin Fox, there are
BUCCANEERS BOYS SWIMMING quite a few returning State swimmers. Returning State swimmers are Max Baetz, Brent Hoffer, Nolan Platz, Hayden Jackson and Hunter Parini. Platz competed in the 100yard breaststroke prelim event. He was the only other invidual swimmer — along with Fox — to compete.
The other returning State swimmers were part of the relay teams. Head coach Mark VanHuis said the team’s goal is to continue the record breaking trend for the school and compete hard every week. Coaches: Mark VanHuis, head coach; Pam Manix, assistant coach.

VIKINGS OVERVIEW How the team fared in 2013: The Vikings sent a group of swimmers to compete in the 2A State Swim & Dive Championships. The team’s State run included a 13th place finish in the 200-yard medley relay event and 12th place in the 200-yard freestyle relay event. What to look for in 2014: The team returns State swimmers Duncan Williams and Thor Breitbarth. Williams competed with the 200-yard medley relay team. Breitbarth competed with three relay teams at State and in the 200-yard freestyle prelims. Head coach Greg Braun told the Herald his goals include getting newcomers up to speed and getting as many people qualified for the district meet as possible. He would like to take the three relay teams back to State, in addition to several individuals. Braun said Breitbarth is poised to go faster this season, and expects there could be several swimmers allocating to State. Top returners: Spencer Adamen, senior, fly/free; Jakob Anderson, senior; free; Thor Breitbarth, junior, allaround; Alex Chow, sophomore, free/breaststroke; Devin Gilchrist, junior, free/ backstroke; Zach Slama, sophomore, free; Matt Smith, sophomore, free/fly; Duncan Williams, senior, free/fly, back-

Rick Endresen December 14, 1946 - December 6, 2014 Rick was born to Bernice and Robert Endresen in Seattle, on December 14, 1946 and died suddenly at home in Poulsbo on December 6, 2014. We lost a fine husband, father, brother and best friend. Richard Allen Endresen Words cannot say how much he is missed. Rick is survived by Arlene, his wife and high-school sweetheart, of the family home in Poulsbo; his daughter Jessica Endresen of Poulsbo; son Quinn Endresen of Seattle, sister Patricia Endresen (Trevor Evans) of Hansville, brother John H. Endresen (Barbara) of Seattle; brothers in-law Jim Anderson and Mike Anderson (Maureen McGarrity) of Poulsbo; Grandson Tyler Anderson. His father, mother, and eldest brother Carvel Gene preceded Rick in death. Rick spent his childhood years at his family’s home in Hansville. As a teenager, he enjoyed summers working along with his brother, Gene at Randall’s Resort in Hansville. In 1965, Rick graduated from North Kitsap High School where he played the trumpet and sousaphone in the band. After high school Rick signed up for the U.S. Coast Guard where he served on the buoy tender “Bittersweet” in the Pacific NW Region and Alaska. Following his Coast Guard duty, Rick‘s service in the U.S. Merchant Marine took him to wartime Vietnam and other Asian ports. These experiences led Rick to a lifelong love of the sea and of sailing. He twice sailed from Hawaii to Seattle. He lived on his first boat “The Jack of Hearts” in Seattle for several years while working as a ships chandler for Fred Rogers Company, then later managed Cloud Trading Ships Chandlery, later incorporated into Fairn and Swanson, Inc. of Seattle. His last job before retiring was as manager for The Gliding Eagle Marketplace owned by the Port Gamble S’Klallam Tribe. Rick enjoyed his time working with S’Klallam tribal members and served aboard support boats for several of their annual canoe journeys. Beyond his work experience, Rick was involved in local community activities with his wife Arlene. He had just returned from delivering food from local businesses to North Kitsap Fishline food bank with his friend Charlie Morgan on the morning he died. Rick was also an active member of the Sons of Norway; participating in many of its events such as the Rotary breakfast where he had to get up at 4:30 a.m. each Friday to get things set up. Rick also had a love of cooking and trying new foods and exciting recipes. In recent years Rick and Arlene have enjoyed travels to Norway, Finland, Sweden, Ireland, Hawaii and Mexico. Their trips to Scandinavia re-united them with a wide network of family relatives still living there. During their most recent visit in October, Rick was pleased to be invited to participate in an annual moose hunt organized by relatives. Rick enjoyed life, was liked for his good-natured sense of humor, and had something good to say about everyone he met. Rick’s work and community life earned him a wide circle of friends in the North Kitsap area, Seattle and beyond. He is missed by all of us. A memorial service will be held for Rick.

‘A date which will live in infamy’
Four survivors participate in Naval Undersea Museum’s annual commemoration of the Dec. 7, 1941 attack on Pearl Harbor
N
aval Undersea Warfare Center Keyport hosted its 21st annual Pearl Harbor Remembrance Ceremony on Dec. 7 at Naval Undersea Museum Keyport. The annual event commemorates Japan’s bombing of U.S. Navy installations at Pearl Harbor in 1941, triggering the United States’ engagement in World War II. Clockwise from above left: Pearl Harbor veteran Roy Carter of Sequim shares memories of the fateful day. Pearl Harbor veteran Rocky Hoffmann was a 23-year-old Marine sergeant when Japan attacked Pearl Harbor; he and other Marines fought back, downing a Japanese plane. Capt. Dave Kohnke, commander of NUWC Keyport, applauds the four Pearl Harbor survivors in the audience. Kohnke welcomes, from left, Bob Rains of Sequim, Roy Carter of Sequim, Frank Mattausch of Bremerton, and Rocky Hoffmann of Bremerton.

ainbridge Island’s Gilbert Thomes is more than a jewelry store. It’s a gem store, an antique shop, a craftsman’s studio, for starters. What sets it apart, though, is its character. The ambiance, while elegant, is far from imposing. There are no salespersons. Rather, owners Alice Gilbert and Drew Thomes present a neighborly feel, making the shop comfortable and pleasant. “The shop is presented in a way to bring about

and generations. It’s a philosophy that the owners impart to Crocket and fellow employee Justin Lynn. Together, the four are continuing an increasingly rare form of jewelry and art. Thomes and Gilbert relate their knowledge, and Crockett and Lynn are trying to catch up to them. And with the skills they are teaching, they also hope to impart a sense of the trade that they value. “Because of our time in the industry we have had a lot of time to think about what is good and what is bad about commercial See JEWELRY, Page 3

feelings of nostalgia and family,” said Taylor Crockett, one of two employees. “You will see photographs of friends and family of Alice and Drew over several years.” Crockett notes that the feeling transfers into the product. Jewelry isn’t as much of a consumer product at Gilbert Thomes as it is something that “will stay in your family for generations, and means so much more than its monetary worth,” Crockett said. That’s an important belief at the shop, that jewelry is art, carrying sentiment through time

Drew Thomes at his workstation — above, in 1989; at right, present day — crafting one-of-a-kind jewelry. The wax that he carves can form anything, from rings to pendants and more. The wax model will eventually create a mold for a ring to hold special gems. Contributed and Richard D. Oxley

Continued from page 2 jewelry and retail,” Gilbert said. For example, something as simple as lighting is important. “When we started this place, I decided I wanted a lot of natural light,” she said, noting that many shops avoid natural light, and rely on artificial. “They want to control the environment that has interior case lighting and really loud spotlights.” “I want people to be able to see their stones for what they are,” Gilbert said. “A lot of commercial jewelry stores are trying to sell based on brilliance and you take it out of the case and it’s not quite as bright as it was in the store. I think that’s wrong.”
Gems in the Emerald City
Thomes and Gilbert have a reputation as experts in the jewelry community, partially earned through their shop on Bainbridge Island. The shop celebrated its 10th anniversary in 2014.
But the careers they have crafted took decades to forge. Thomes was a graphic artist and a carpenter before he broke into the jewelry world in 1980. “I was making American Native[-style] jewelry as an homage to my distant relatives. Then I met a jeweler who was an owner of fine jewelry at Nordstrom,” Thomes said. “At that time I was a carpenter but wanted to get into the jewelry business. “It’s hard to get into the jewelry business because jewelers usually only hire their relatives, and jewelers are also paranoid,” he said. “They don’t want to hire someone and then find out if they are honest or not.” Thomes made jewelry at Nordstrom from 198087. He said developing his carving skills was difficult and that he almost gave it up after five years, but his boss at the time talked him into sticking with it. Sticking with it paid off in more ways than one. It was through his job that he met Gilbert, then working as a gemologist at Nordstrom, now his wife.
GILBERT THOMES FOR A GOOD CAUSE For its 10th anniversary, Gilbert Thomes has collaborated with a variety of local causes, such as the Helpline House, PAWS of Bainbridge Island and North Kitsap, the Puget Sound Restoration Fund and the Bainbridge Performing Arts Center. The shop is producing necklace pendants that relate to each organization. Twenty percent of each item sold will go to its respective organization. “I went to work for Nordstrom in ’82 as their gemologist and met Drew,” she said. “We worked together until we got married in ’85.” Gilbert came from another side of the business. She specializes in gems, crystals and stones. “I’m the rock person,” she said. “I started out in an old store in Seattle that is no longer there,” Gilbert said. “I earned my gemology degree in 1980 and was the appraiser at Friedlander’s.” After Nordstrom, she went to work for Carroll’s Fine Jewelry in Seattle. She has since earned further certifications in the field. Thomes spent the bulk of his career as a freelance jeweler. His work was
found in a range of shops throughout Seattle. He was also sought out. “One job I was asked to do was for the royal family of the Shah of Iran after he was disposed,” Thomes said. “I also did a lot of work for people inside the business that nobody would recognize.” When the couple retired to Bainbridge Island, they decided to put their combined skills into a new shop. “We’ve done well and met a lot of nice people and made some beautiful things,” Thomes said.
A custom trade
Thomes’ craft isn’t often found in the modern world of mass-produced jewelry. He starts with a solid block of purple wax that is much like wood. Then he
sculpts it, carving it into a unique shape, a work of art. The wax is transferred to a cast, which is then used to mold a metal such as gold or silver. The original wax carving that took so long to craft is destroyed in the casting process. This means that when Thomes makes a piece, it is one of a kind. “Rings I love, they are my favorite,” Thomes said. “It’s something for a person, for their whole lives if I do it right.” He also makes pendants, bracelets, necklaces and earrings. “People have asked me to do a wide variety of things other than jewelry,” he said. “Like miniature cars and scenic views and architectural parts for windows and umbrellas.” The work is custom made, to the liking of the customer. The custom work strays from the more common place jewelry found at shops that is mass-produced. “Now they use computer controlled electric ovens, things are much more scientific than casting,” Thomes said.
Gilbert, on the other hand, is an expert appraiser with knowledge of gems, crystals stones and much more. She can go from one end of the store to the other, picking through stones and crystals along the way, tell you how they formed, if they are natural or grown in a lab, and more. “I like antiques as well,” she said, noting the variety in the shop. “Being an appraiser, for almost 35 years, it’s amazing the range of jewelry I’ve appraised.” Together, they form a valuable team — an artist and an intellect apt for custom jobs.
Passing the torch
Thomes has been officially retired for some time, working part-time at the shop. As the 10-year anniversary of the business approached, he and Gilbert wanted to keep their skills going, but with new hands. “Alice and I don’t have children of our own,” Thomes said. “We realize after 10 years that we are reaching retirement and See JEWELRY, Page 11

aroundkitsap Articles from neighboring Kitsap communities. For more news, read these newspapers online. BAINBRIDGE ISLAND REVIEW Council members go silent on Facebook: Bainbridge Island city officials announced Dec. 2 they would no longer post messages on Facebook and other social media outlets. The move follows emerging criticism of the practice as well as a recent briefing at a city council meeting where City Attorney Lisa Marshall told the council that messages on Facebook, Twitter and other social media forums could be considered public records if the posts dealt with city business. Marshall also noted that emails from private computers can also be public records.
w
“Emails discussing city business sent from private computers ... from private emails addresses, do constitute public records,” Marshall said. The City of Bainbridge Island is being sued in Kitsap County Superior Court for withholding emails about city business that were sent and received from the private email accounts of councilmen Steve Bonkowski and David Ward. A judge ruled in May that the city violated the state Public Records Act after Bonkowski and Ward deleted emails from their personal accounts that were public records, and the city was ordered last month to pay attorney fees of $109,345 to Dan Mallove, the lawyer for the two Bainbridge residents
who filed the lawsuit against the city. A hearing on financial penalties against the city for violating the Public Records Act is scheduled for later this month. At the council’s last meeting in November, Marshall led a training session on the state’s public records and meetings laws and warned council members to preserve emails that had been sent to their personal email accounts. “Even if you are not requested to respond to an email, even if there is nothing for you to do with that email, it’s still a record and shouldn’t be deleted,” she said. Some city officials have been commenting on the handful of Bainbridge Island-related Facebook pages, and City Manager Doug Schulze has posted frequent items to correct misinformation that is put online about city hall. Schulze announced the city’s change in direction in a post Dec. 2 on the Bainbridge Island Community Forum page on Facebook, and said it had been prompted
LIVE UNITED For over 75 years United Way of Kitsap C♥unty has been at the HEART of the C♥mmunity! GIVE – Invest in your community, donate to a favorite charity
by concerns that had been raised. “I am very disappointed to be forced to discontinue participating in this forum, but due to a recent citizen concern find it necessary,” Schulze wrote. “Unfortunately, this is going to mean that information about city issues, meetings and events will no longer be provided through this forum or any of the other Bainbridge Island forums. We will focus all of our communication efforts on the city website, City Manager’s Report, Nixle, Twitter and the city Facebook page,” he wrote. — BainbridgeReview.com
BREMERTON PATRIOT Trespassing a problem in Bremerton watershed, city says: Poachers and trespassers have proved to be a problem in the Bremerton watershed, according to the Bremerton Police Department. The Bremerton watershed is a critical environmental area to the city of Bremerton and as such is closed to all public access and use. The area is closed to all vehicle, bicycle and pedestrian traffic. Hunting and fishing are not allowed. The area is under video surveillance and is also patroled. People found in the watershed are subject to arrest for trespassing. According to hunting regulations it is illegal for hunters to trespass or hunt on closed lands. They are no longer hunting but have become poachers subject to additional penalties and fines as well as arrest for trespassing. Anyone who observes trespassers or poachers entering the Bremerton watershed property are encouraged to call 911. Capt. Tom Wolfe said that in Washington state per RCW.77.15.435 it is unlawful
Security cameras in the Bremerton watershed have captured a variety of trespassers. Contributed to hunt or retrieve wildlife from the property of another. Owners are not required to post their land. In the case of the watershed it is heavily posted at every entry point. Because of ongoing violations of trespassing and poaching, the Bremerton Police Department — in co-

Avenue, the site it previously selected for the new library in Silverdale. That action came at the board’s Nov. 25 meeting. According to Jeff Brody, director of community relations for the library, the terms of the agreement with Sound West Group give the Library six months to explore the feasibility of the site for a new library. No down payment on the purchase price is due until May 25, and until that date, Kitsap Regional Library can withdraw from the agreement with no financial risk. The agreement calls for the Library to pay $100,000 toward the purchase of the property on May 25, 2015, and the remainder of the purchase price would be due on Nov. 25, 2015. The price for the parcel is set at $850,000. But, Brody said, Kitsap Regional Library can reduce that price to $800,000 if it connects Sound West to a party interested in purchasing the adjacent property for $800,000. — CentralKitsapReporter. com
NORTH KITSAP HERALD Clearwater Casino evacuated because of fire: Tom Beebee was minding his cards at the Suquamish Clearwater Casino’s poker table when the game was quickly interrupted the morning of Dec. 2. “There was a fire alarm,” Beebee said. “Then a voice said, ‘Stand by until we ascertain what it is.’“ But it wasn’t long before the chips were down for the whole casino, located on Highway 305 at the Agate Pass Bridge. “Personnel came around to the card room and said we had to evacuate,” Beebee said.
Fire crews from Bainbridge Island, North Kitsap and Poulsbo responded to the casino shortly after 11 a.m. after a report of a car on fire in the casino’s west garage. The garage is connected to the casino. The fire is believed to have started in a car’s engine compartment on the fourth level of the garage. There are no sprinklers in the garage, according to chatter on the police scanner when emergency crews were dispatched. The fire spread to four neighboring cars before firefighters could knock it down with hoses from the ground level. Firefighters also patrolled the garage to put out the fire from up close. A couple of small explosions were heard and flames were seen shooting out from the garage. After the initial fire alarm, personnel moved through the casino and told patrons to evacuate. “I was on the gaming floor, playing slots,” Pam Johnson said. “They made an announcement, ‘There’s an emergency in the building,’ six times.” Phyllis Schwerin of Tacoma was not far away at a slot machine when casino employees said she had to drop her game and leave. “They said ‘Please stand by for instructions (over the speaker),’ and then finally a casino worker came by and said we had to evacuate out the front door,” Schwerin said. “They were herding us out.” Casino patrons then watched the flames and smoke from the east parking lot as firefighters battled the blaze. Employees were rounded up in one location for a head count. “Are there no sprinkler systems in the garages?” Schwerin asked while watching the effort. The fire appeared to be under control by noon.
Smoke had lessened and firefighters were up close to the fire. — NorthKitsapHerald.com

Continued from page 3 we realized that we needed help.” The couple advertised for an employee and received interest from as far as New York and South Africa. But no one seemed to be the right fit. They found help locally, which led to a chance meeting. Thomes and Gilbert were headed to a doctor’s appointment and didn’t want to leave their sole employee alone. That’s when Justin Lynn walked in to say ‘hello’ to a friend, then-employee Sarah Herrin, at the shop. “I hired him for one day and asked him to be Sarah’s bodyguard,” Gilbert said. “And when I came back he was sitting with a customer. When he left he said it was a really nice place to work.” “Justin is really a wonderful showman and a really good promoter,” Gilbert said. “He came in one day to cover for us when we were gone and
decided to stay.” He now truly knows how nice it is to work at Gilbert Thomes, because he does. “I was only meant to work at the store once,” Lynn said. “Alice and Drew came back early and we got to talking about history and jewelry, and how each piece they sell will be in a family for generations and will create its own story.” “I guess we connected on enough levels that they thought it would be a good idea to give me a job,” he said. Lynn, who is most widely known for his work in the theater, got to work and was soon producing his own rings. “For most of my life I’ve been a performance artist. I love acting. I know the craft and I’m pretty good at it,” Lynn said. “When I started working at Gilbert Thomes, I knew next to nothing about the visual arts, so the idea of making custom jewelry was intimidating. And make no mistake, what we do at Gilbert

Thomes is art.” Just as Thomes tapped into his own ancestry when making his art, Lynn has as well, at the start of his craft. “My family is primarily of Norse decent,” he said. “Growing up, I felt a strong connection to my ancestry and my jewelry designs reflect that. If you want a piece that looks hammer finished, or a piece covered in runes, or something that looks old and powerful, I’m the designer to talk to.” Lynn has been training for more than a year, and is still pushing himself to go further. “Drew and Alice know everything there is to know about the business,” Lynn said. “So working with them is a non-stop learning experience.” “They are also incredibly kind people who are firmly grounded in the community they love,” he said. Crockett’s entrance in to the trade is a similar tale. “I came to drop off my necklace and say ‘hello’ to Justin, but I was quickly hooked,” Crockett said. “I was enchanted by all the beautiful pieces of jewelry, minerals specimens, and antiques. From then on I was visiting all the time

just for fun. I always joked with Justin that if any positions ever opened up, he knew who to call. Much to my surprise, he did just that.” Crockett has a background in design, something she brings to the job. “Through Justin we found our new designer, Taylor Crockett,” Thomes said. “She’s going to be an outstanding jeweler if she sticks with it.”
Crockett is motivated, and said that the work is continually fascinating. “When I’m working as a carver with Drew, my artistic brain is being trained,” she said. “When I’m with Alice, I get to learn about the scientific properties of stones and metals which as always interested me.” With two eager to learn the craft, it is a way for the experts to pass the bejeweled torch to a new gener-

ation of craftsmen. “We are continuing what we are doing, because we are training Tay and Justin,” Gilbert said. “Part of the reason I want them to succeed is because I think Bainbridge needs a good jewelry store they can trust and go to, and they have great potential to fulfill the roles we have when we retire.”

Horses, Stars and Hands Seeing is another way of believing that the sweet taste of sudden juice or stolen lips is eternal and lasts longer than the ride that took you on a wild horse named Stun into the woods and branches whipped and cut your face until you learned to throw your arms around its neck and keep breathing until the ride was over or slow enough so you could fall off the side and not break your neck. Breaking your back on an anvil of a job and stuttering from one person to another is a way to say to the stars: I’m like you–I have this speck of eternal light that sends itself to other planets in the emptiness of space. Once I reached blind for your hand and couldn’t hold on. I burned out like a comet, whirled away like a cyclone. Burn and whirl with me. The air will contain us. Read this poem and take my hand. It’s all I have left. — Bob McAllister, Bainbridge Island, 1984 The Poets’ Corner features work from local poets who appear at the Poulsbohemian Poetry Readings, held on first Saturdays of the month at the Poulsbohemian Coffeehouse, 19003 Front St., Poulsbo.

N
orthwest author Randall Platt is celebrating the release of her latest young-adult novel “Incommunicado” with a book signing at the Barnes & Noble, located in the Kitsap Mall in Silverdale. The signing is scheduled on Dec. 14, 2-4 p.m. Platt chiefly hails from Gig Harbor where she lived for 35 years. She wrote 10 novels while living south of the Kitsap border. Today, though, she calls Kitsap home, as she releases her 11th novel. “Incommunicado” is aimed at readers 10-yearsold and older. The book deals with something Kitsap communities are well aware of; the Japanese internment camps during WWII. Bainbridge Island was the first community to have its Japanese citizens torn from their homes and forced into camps during the war.

Take a trip to a local, old-fashioned Christmas Seabeck celebrates the holidays with pioneer flair BY LESLIE KELLY Kitsap Week
S
et aside the hustle-bustle of the holiday season for just one night. Turn off the computers, the televisions, the smartphones and the tablets. Put on your Sunday best and venture out to Seabeck’s Old Mill Town, to celebrate the holidays the way they would have been in the 1860s. The Kitsap Historical Society and Museum is again presenting Old Mill Town Christmas on Dec. 14, beginning at 4 p.m. The location is at the Seabeck Conference Center, in Seabeck, where, in the mid 1800s, everything was all about logging. Enjoy the fun, beginning with a hay ride. Stop to sample roasted chestnuts and mosey on to the Meeting House to dance the Old Virginia Reel with the Kitsap Kickers. Following that, a typical pioneer-style Christmas dinner will be served in the century-old historic dining hall. The family-style dinner will include herb-rubbed pork tenderloin, clam chowder, corn fritters, cheddar biscuits and root vegetables. There’ll be corn pudding and apple pie for dessert. After dinner, learn what life was like back
Carolers set the holiday mood at a previous Old Mill Town celebration in Seabeck. then through the stories of characters “Marshall Blinn, Fred, the lumberman and Jim, the forester.” Blinn, who will be played by Chuck Kraining, executive director of the Seabeck Conference Center, founded a mill in Seabeck in the 1850s. He came from Maine to look at the area and decided it was just the right place to start his mill which went by the name of the Washington Mill Company.

”There’s a great story of how he burnt down a bridge so his mill workers couldn’t cross it to get to the saloon ...” — Chuck Kraining
“Blinn was known to be a teetotaler,” Kraining said. “There’s a great story about how he burnt down a bridge so his mill workers couldn’t cross it to get to the saloon to drink.”
Indeed, Blinn was known for preaching abstinence. “He was a man whose family was steeped in a tradition of sobriety and morality,” reads “Seabeck: Tide’s Out, Table’s Set” history book. He took away the management of one rather racy hotel, tore it down, built a new one and offered it free to anyone who would run it on prohi-
bition principles. He also ran for Congress in 1869 on a morality platform, but lost, and then left town. Rather ironic, Kraining’s office at the conference center sits right near where Blinn built the mill’s Meeting House in the winter of 1864. Logger Fred Just, a longtime resident of the Seabeck area, will speak about what his job was like as a logger. He’ll explain terms like “whiskey punk, donkey punches and skid row.” And he’ll teach the crowd logging songs such as “Walk a Logger, Walks a Man.” Also on the program

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.

Brian Carter excels with Washington blends Vintner specializes in old world blends after decades in the NW wine scene NW WINES By ANDY PERDUE and ERIC DEGERMAN
W
hen Brian Carter decided to make his way back to the Pacific Northwest, Mount St. Helens had just erupted and there wasn’t much of a wine industry north of the Columbia River. But the Oregon native was determined to make his mark when he came to the Seattle area in 1980, and he has accomplished greatness in the decades since. Carter was the head wine maker for Paul Thomas Wines and Washington Hills/Apex Cellars before launching his own brand in the late 1990s and establishing his winery in Woodinville in 2002 with business partner Michael Stevens. When Carter opened his tasting room, not far from Ste. Michelle, he was one of the only wineries there. Today, Woodinville has more than 100 tasting rooms. Carter’s focus is on blends, and today he crafts no fewer than 10 different wines. All are blends that focus on established Old World regions, including Bordeaux, Tuscany, the Douro Valley and Châteauneuf-du-Pape. And he does them all extremely well. In 2014, his wines have won best of show in three regional competitions, including the Seattle Wine & Food Experience, the Northwest Wine Summit and the Washington State Wine Competition. Here are several Carter wines we’ve tasted recently. Ask for them at your favorite wine merchant or contact the winery directly.
Brian Carter, owner of Brian Carter Cellars, walks through Klipsun Vineyard on Washington’s Red Mountain during harvest. He was collecting samples of grapes before deciding when he wanted to pick Cabernet Sauvignon. Andy Perdue
”Carter’s focus is on blends, and today he crafts no fewer than 10 different wines.”
Brian Carter Cellars 2012 Abracadabra, Columbia Valley, $22: Brian Carter’s entry-level red wine truly is a magical and eclectic blend of 12 varieties, leading with Cabernet Sauvignon (28 percent), Merlot (19 percent) and Syrah (12 percent). It takes on a theme of dark purple fruit, starting with aromas of blueberry taffy and black currant that are joined by lilac, lavender and roasted coffee. There’s a ton of fruit sitting in the mouth, featuring sweet blueberry and elderberry, followed by Bing cherry skin tannins and pepper. Potential pairings include pasta, grilled pizza or Rabbit Cacciatore. (14 percent alc.)
Brian Carter Cellars 2010 Byzance, Columbia Valley, $34: This Southern Rhône blend leads with Grenache (58 percent), followed by Syrah (18 percent), Mourvèdre (18 percent), Counoise (4 percent) and Cinsault. There’s a gamy quality to the nose of dark blueberry, mulberry, mocha and roasted coffee. Its structure features delicious acidity and medium tannins among flavors of black currant, elderberry and blueberry. In the back, there’s a fun blend of black plum skins, anise and black olive. Carter shows so much pride in this release that he asks fans to enjoy this alongside a bottle from Châteauneuf-du-Pape then send him a note describing their impressions. See WINE, Page 24

Continued from page 23 (14.2 percent alc.) Brian Carter Cellars 2011 Opulento, Yakima Valley, $22: This high-octane dessert wine made in the Portuguese tradition uses such red varieties as Souzão (36 percent), Touriga Naçional (33 percent), Tinta Cão and Tinta Roriz. Whiffs of toasted marshmallow, Nutella, coconut and brown sugar are followed by plums, Raisinet, agave nectar and steamed milk. Big, rich flavors focus on black plum, dark toast and lingering chocolate. The residual sugar (4 percent)
is far from cloying, while the alcohol is managed brilliantly. It’s a complete package to be enjoyed with a wedge of Stilton and a fistful of toasted filberts. (19 percent alc.) Brian Carter Cellars 2012 Oriana, Yakima Valley, $22: This white wine is combination of Viognier and Roussanne with a touch of Riesling. The name is derived from the Latin term “golden lady.” It yields aromas of pineapple, pear and apple pie, with notes of clove, anise and lemon. The palate steers toward Granny Smith apple and sweet lime, backed by dried apricot. (13.6 percent alc.)
Brian Carter Cellars 2009 Tuttorosso, Yakima Valley, $34: This Super Tuscan-style blend is a fascinating wine with aromas of red cherry, allspice, mocha and a bit of toast, followed by flavors of bright, approachable flavors of red plum, ripe raspberry, white chocolate and a twist of black pepper. Perfect with lasagna or grilled meats. (14.2 percent alc.) Eric Degerman and Andy Perdue run Great Northwest Wine, a news and information company. Learn more about wine at www.greatnorthwestwine. com.
