Meet Meaghan de Wolf, Isla Dübendorf
2015’s VALEDICTORIANS By BEN WATANABE South Whidbey Record The two valedictorians for South Whidbey High School have stood alone, and together, as the top students in the class of 2015 since their sophomore
year. Isla Dübendorf, 17, and Meaghan de Wolf, 18, are this year’s top students having maintained 4.0 grade point averages over four years at South Whidbey High School. Their grades, both girls said, meant that some nights they stayed in to
study instead of watching a movie or going out with friends. At other times, it meant a 5 a.m. cram session to have all the information fresh before a test. SEE VALEDICTORIAN, A9
They came from different starts and found a similar finish at South Whidbey Academy. A group of 16 students will receive their diploma covers and graduate from South Whidbey’s alternative high school program Thursday. It will be the third graduating class at the school, which opened in September 2012. The week prior to graduating, a handful of the soon-tobe graduates met with The Record to reflect on their journeys, struggles, triumphs and what’s to come. Asked what word they’d use to describe the difference of South Whidbey Academy’s Pathways Program (grades nine-12), they said, “perseverance,” “change,” “autonomy,” and “independence.” One of the common themes for the small sample of seniors was feeling unwelcome and out of place in other school settings. Some came from out of state, others SEE ACADEMY, A9
Langley adventurer, professor to relay Atlantic crossing on Viking replica By KATE DANIEL South Whidbey Record Contributed image
Ragnar Thorseth, known as "Norway's Last Viking," tethered his 11-year-old son to his side during a hurricane while on board the Saga Siglar, a replica of an 11thcentury Viking ship.
When Jonathon Moses set to work repairing a dilapidated sailing boat in 1984, he had no inkling that he would soon be a crew member aboard a boat replicated from Viking lore, retracing the tumultuous path Norse explorer Leif Erikson had sailed centuries prior. The Saga Siglar (meaning “sailor of the sagas”) was a
54-foot knarr, a replica of an 11th century Viking boat. Moses explained that no images of a knarr existed aside from the descriptions provided in sagas and the remnants of one that had sunk off the coast of Denmark. “Nobody had ever rigged one; nobody had ever seen one before,” said Moses.

Development rules may dash Clinton builder’s dream By KATE DANIEL South Whidbey Record County codes may hinder a group of Clinton residents in their plan to establish an affordable, eco-friendly community. Larry Dobson and a group of friends and associates have been working to establish a plan to develop a sustainable and affordable community on Dobson’s property in Clinton. As reported by The Record article “Fundamental living: Clinton residents work to establish sustainable, affordable community,” the community envisioned would be similar to those on Orcas Island. But according to David Wechner, director of Island County Planning and Community Development, some of the residents’ ideas may not be in compliance with county regulations.
In an email to The Record on health permits for the property. Dobson had an appointment Tuesday morning, Wechner said that Dobson was sent a letter on to meet with Island County code Feb. 11 informing him of code vio- enforcement on Tuesday. Wechner clarified lations and advising that no fines have him to “cease all unpermitted activity on “What is taking place yet been assessed, though the fees for the property” and on Mr. Dobson’s the necessary perapply for a site plan property does not review for a campmits will exceed $2,000. ground and home fit the generallyIn regard to industry. accepted definition Dobson’s future Wechner said assoof a ‘land trust’.” plans for the propciates of Dobson’s had come by the David Wechner, erty, Wechner said director he had not seen any county office to ask Island County Planning Department details thus far and questions regarding the matter, but said is therefore unable he had received little to comment at this response from Dobson time as to whether the himself. plan complies with county code.

Burglar pleads guilty, sentenced to 5 years By JESSIE STENSLAND South Whidbey Record A man who was once named as a “person of interest” in an unresolved bank robbery was sent to prison for stealing cigarettes and lottery tickets. Christian Shorey, a 35-year-old Langley resident, pleaded guilty in Island County Superior Court Monday to one count of second-degree burglary. The judge sentenced him to five years in prison. Shorey broke into the Bayview Valero in October of 2012. A surveillance video showed a masked man jumping the counter and stealing cigarettes, lottery tickets, candy and drinks, according to the deputy’s report. A cashier at the store identified Shorey in the
video from his tattoos, which were captured in the video. The Halloween mask left behind at the scene was sent to the state crime lab for DNA analysis. Prosecutors charged him last year with two counts of second-degree burglary. Island County Sheriff Mark Brown named Shorey as “a person of interest” in the robbery last September of Wells Fargo Bank in Clinton. At least four members of Shorey’s immediate family told detectives they believe it was his voice they heard on a recording of a phony 9-1-1 call that preceded the bank heist. The call is believed to have been intended as a diversionary tactic to lure deputies away from Clinton. The bank robber wore a black mask, gloves and

is now residing in Seattle. Dobson acknowledged that it is against county code to store or live in motor homes on residential property, but said that he suspects there are hundreds of people doing so. After the initial story’s publication in May, a concerned neighbor contacted The Record to voice several concerns. In addition to the abovementioned issues, the neighbor claimed that Dobson’s building of a tiny house was not legal. Wechner said that the tiny house issue was not brought to his attention until after the May 5 letter had been sent. Wechner said that Dobson had been notified about the concern over the phone. “We need to see details on it to make the code call,” Wechner wrote. “Guest houses are allowed in the county — remains to be seen if the ‘tiny house’ qualifies.”

In a telephone conversation, Dobson confirmed that he had received a citation for Duran Laframboise’s camping on the property. Dobson said that Laframboise had spoken with the person responsible for issuing the order and had tried to resolve the matter. Dobson said that he has tried to contact a code compliance officer at Island County but had been unable to reach anyone as of Thursday, May 28. “I’ve telephoned him several times and never got a reply,” Dobson said. Dobson said that Laframboise is no longer living on the property. He

WEATHER REPORT | Expect showers today that give way to sunny skies Thursday and Friday. Highs near 70.
LANGLEY Council tables camping rules Langley city leaders decided Monday to take more time on proposed rules that would limit the length of stay for campers. On the advice of the city planning director and Port of South Whidbey representatives, the council unanimously voted to table the ordinance that would have set a twoweek limit for campers in town. Port of South Whidbey Commissioner Curt Gordon attended the meeting to present the port district’s interest in the matter. The Island County Fairgrounds in Langley is county property managed by the Port of South Whidbey. Included is a campground area that has seen some recent changes including a fee
increase and summertime hosts to serve as gobetweens for campers and port management. One of the city’s main concerns was unkempt areas resulting from longstaying campers, some of them reportedly homeless or in transition between housing. “My number one goal is to keep everything tidy and respectful,” said Melene Thompson, who was hired on a contract to manage the fairgrounds and campgrounds in late April. Gordon said the port doesn’t want the fairgrounds to become a place for the homeless to camp out or transition. “Our goal is not to provide service to the homeless,” he said, referring to the port’s focus of economic development. His main concern with the city’s proposed twoweek camping limit was that it may restrict the port’s ability to operate.
He said the fairgrounds need to be flexible and for the port have the ability to dictate its own terms “to make as much as we can out of the campgrounds.” With regard to “problem” campers, Gordon said the Langley Police Department has been helpful in enforcing the port’s policies and escorting people off the property. The Langley City Council agreed to table the ordinance until the planner and port officials could discuss it further.
Business licenses added, changed A new type of business license is available in Langley, and the fees for existing licenses have changed. Director of Community Planning Michael Davolio presented the changes June 1 to the Langley City Council, which unani-
mously voted to waive the first reading and approve them. Davolio implemented a seasonal license that lasts 90 days and increased the temporary license from seven to 10 days. Adding business license categories creates more flexibility for merchants. Previously, Langley only offered a seven-day or year-long license. “That’s not the greatest solution for someone who’s only going to be in business for two or three months,” said Debbie Mahler, city clerk and treasurer. The annual business license fee increased from $50 to $60 for a business outside the city that’s conducting business in Langley. Temporary vendors will pay $30, up from $25 plus, if requested, a $10 renewal fee. Davolio said he made the seasonal license last 90 days to eventually cover and replace the recently instituted mobile food vendor license. The mobile food vendor season was

CORRECTIONS In the Saturday, May 30 issue of The Record, the story entitled “Congregation bids Langley couple adios,” contained an error. Trinity Lutheran Church will host the Humphreys’ Hurrah! at 6:30 p.m. on Sunday, July 26. In the Saturday, May 30 issue of The Record, a front page headline about Diking District 4 contained incorrect information. The meeting is set for June 10. In the May 22 issue of The Record, the story “Fundamental Living: Clinton residents work to establish sustainable, affordable community” contained several errors and left out pertinent information. Bridget Smith is the Town Building Official for Coupeville, not a county code enforcement officer. Larry Dobson is a builder, not an architect. In February, Dobson was sent a letter asking him to cease all un-permitted activity on the property and to apply for a site plan review for a home business and campground. Also, Duran Laframboise, who was living in a Winnebago at the time of the story’s publication, was issued an order to cease camping on the property earlier this month. He is no longer living on site. established between Memorial Day and Labor Day, late May to early September.

Editorial
Graduates can hold their heads high Graduation season is always an exciting time of year on South Whidbey, but the past few weeks have been especially awesome. From the outstanding performances of the district’s sports teams at state to the heartwarming crowning of Talia Petosa as prom queen and the inspiring academic successes of the high school’s and academy’s senior classes, we at The Record are impressed. Competitively, socially and academically, the classes of 2015 have shined with demonstrations of determination, brains and heart. Starting with the most recent news first, the school district’s Falcon spring sports teams soared this year with six of the seven competing for state titles: baseball, softball, soccer, track, boys golf and girls golf. Tennis also did well, making it to the tri-district tournament, which is just shy of state. While no one came home with first place trophies, that hardly matters. That so many from one area were good enough to challenge the very best of the 1A programs in all of Washington is simply outstanding and certainly a bragging right for any school district. Hold your heads high, Falcons — not a person on South Whidbey can be anything but exceedingly proud of your great achievements. Academically, the success stories that are Isla Dübendorf, 17, and Meaghan de Wolf, 18 — South Whidbey High School’s 2015 valedictorians — are nothing short of amazing. With dizzying displays of intellect and commitment, they maintained 4.0 grade averages for four years straight. Clearly they are headed for great things. Similarly, South Whidbey Academy’s graduating class is always one of inspiration. High school can be tough, much more so for some than others, and this year’s 16 graduates proved that with determination and perseverance they can realize their dreams. Finally, the high school’s recent crowning of Talia Petosa as prom queen spoke volumes about the Class of 2015’s character. Many would have loved the once-in-a-lifetime honor, but this group of exceptional students became the teachers with a public lesson in maturity and humility beyond their years. Well done, South Whidbey students, well done. You all rock!

Elections
Emerson is proper choice for Langley Editor, Langley encapsulates city living on South Whidbey, it reflects our values for prioritizing the environment, the arts and a sustainable economy with diversity and a healthy dash of rural character thrown into the mix. It needs a populist and progressive mayor with a healthy respect for transparency who can get things done. Sharon Emerson is that person, and I wish I could vote for her. Sharon and family have lived on South Whidbey for three decades, sent their daughter through our schools and always were actively involved in diverse community activities. Sharon started and maintained a very successful home nursing company that’s been flourishing
around here for 20 years. I’ve known her to always be thoroughly informed about every political or community issue we see around here and forever anxious to learn more. She articulates her views and shows the admirable quality of thoughtfully accepting and considering diverse ones. She’s a doer that is organized, articulate, passionate and approachable. Sharon is the perfect mayor who will represent all the people of Langley and steer our only city in a direction that advances the priorities of South Whidbey into the 21st century.

petroleum, and had driven to Seattle in cars powered by gasoline. Thus, the reasoning went, these protestors were naive at best, and hypocritical at worst. I’m grateful for remarks like this, as they highlight how the message of this and other similar protests is not coming through clearly. What is required of us is not just to reduce our individual oil consumption as consumers, but to challenge a system that doesn’t allow us choices, such as access to affordable alternatives to fossil fuels (hard, when the fossil fuel industry systemically opposes their development). Several other countries have already made a transition to the predominant use of renewable, clean energy sources — there are no insurmountable technical or economic obstacles to doing this. So why is our government cutting funding for the development of alternative energy sources? Why are we taxpayers subsidizing Big Oil, enabling it to spend billions of dollars to shape government policies and consumer preferences that are antithetical to the very system changes which must occur if we
are to prevent our world from becoming less and less habitable? If our own Defense Department says that climate change is the greatest threat to our national security, why don’t we take this seriously? What are we waiting for? We don’t have to forsake all fossil fuel use and the jobs that depend on it. We can accelerate our transition to clean energy, and insure that future drilling is done safely and responsibly (not the situation for Shell in the Arctic). We can exercise our collective will and remember that our children’s future and the health of the earth — our home — is our most important value. Climate change is not a partisan issue, it’s a human issue which affects all of us, especially our children. JULIE GLOVER Clinton

businesses stay open and be successful 12 months a year, instead of just five or six months a year… and yes, stakeholders can be the residents who live full time or part time in the Freeland neighborhoods. Stakeholders are simply people who care about their communities, large or small — important people who have a voice that counts. Stakeholders are one group. There is no way to separate residents away from everyone else; we’ve co-mingled for too long for that to stop. No one is using political means to force unnatural growth on Freeland. The excellent planning team of Island County is doing their job, as required by the State of Washington, and as required by any interested stakeholder who wants to live, work or play in Freeland. I’m one of those interested stakeholders, and I hope you are too.

this role, I am also a voter, a property owner, a business person, a volunteer, involved with local organizations and I shop locally whenever I can. What does all that make me? It makes me a stakehold. All of us are stakeholders in our communities, our cities, our counties, our state and country. We all get to have a voice in everything — sometimes that voice is a vote, sometimes it is as a stakeholder. Stakeholders are not less important voices than voters. Someone wrote a letter that suggests that the Island County Comprehensive Plan work for Freeland (Few want to see Freeland a city) benefits only those who own property in the business district, but not the residents. It is shortsighted to believe that only residents are stakeholders for Freeland, or anywhere else. A stakeholder can be a family who has been coming to Freeland beaches for five generations (my own family for example), someone who likes to eat dinner in a restaurant (gosh, that’s me again), someone who wants to see small

Falcons finish second at state By BEN WATANABE South Whidbey Record South Whidbey lost the state 1A baseball championship game 6-4 to Hoquiam and still made history. It was the first time South Whidbey High School had reached a state title game. As it had in just about every game this season, South Whidbey fought as far as the Falcons could. But this time, the Falcons’ fight fell short of capturing the title that went to the Hoquiam Grizzlies. “We hit balls hard all day, they made great plays,” Falcon head coach Tom Fallon said Monday. “That’s state baseball, that’s the way the state championship should be.” “This will never be taken away from this group of kids,” he added. “They played for the state title.” After starting an hour later than scheduled while the previous game in Yakima went into extra innings, South Whidbey fell behind early and couldn’t recover. Hoquiam took a three-run lead in the first inning on a double by Grizzlies sophomore Skyler Jump to the right-field fence off of starting Falcon pitcher Will Simms. The sophomore was put on the mound, said Fallon, because he had the most rested arm after pitching only a few innings the previous weekend and having watched Hoquiam “blast” a left-handed pitcher the previous game. That left South Whidbey, in Fallon’s Matt Simms photo opinion, with two options: Simms and junior Ricky Muzzy, who had thrown a Falcon senior catcher Brent Piehler celebrates scoring a run with senior complete game the previous Saturday. first baseman Mo Hamsa during the state 1A championship baseball “We went into it like every other game against Hoquiam on May 30 in Yakima.

Despite offense, softball swept at state By BEN WATANABE South Whidbey Record With 17 hits across two games, South Whidbey’s offense couldn’t carry it past the first two rounds of the state 1A softball tournament in the Tri-Cities on May 29. The Falcons squeaked past Nooksack Valley into the state tournament and faced Seattle Christian in the first round. Falcon head coach Tim Collins said the bidistrict round of the playoffs gave South Whidbey some much-needed confidence and momentum after staggering through the regular season and Cascade Conference play. “The bi-district and the state playoffs showed my kids that we can compete even if we’re not the strongest defensively,” Collins said. “Playing all the 2A schools and facing their pitchers paid off, especially when we got on a roll.” Seattle Christian won 9-5 and out-hit South Whidbey with 11 hits, including a triple and a double in the fourth inning that led to four runs. South Whidbey trailed the entire game. Seattle Christian took a 4-0 lead in the second inning, padded it to 8-2 by the fourth and fended off South Whidbey after the Falcons’ three-run fifth inning. “They hit the ball in bunches, and we didn’t,” Collins said. Falcon sophomore Kacie Hanson had a pair of doubles
and a RBI. Anne Madsen, the Falcons’ senior catcher, hit a double, a single and two RBI. Sarah Merrow, a senior, hit a double and a single in the loss. Collins credited a batting lineup change late in the regular season for South Whidbey’s improved offense. He said that with about eight games remaining before the postseason, he adjusted the batting order to reflect the batting averages, from top to bottom. “We were a whole lot more successful that way,” he said. Against Connell in the elimination second round, runs were hard to find. Connell took a lead in the second inning, with South Whidbey answering later in the frame. Connell regained the lead in the fourth and took the goahead run in the fifth. South Whidbey attempted a seventh-inning rally that scored one run and left the tying runner stranded on second base. Falcon senior Abby Hodson led off with a double, her second hit of the game. She reached third on a single by Hanson, her third hit of the game. Mackenzee Collins, a freshman, hit a RBI groundout for South Whidbey’s final run. “The top and the bottom of the order had five of the nine hits,” Collins said. “We just couldn’t get Kacie home the last inning.”
Fast Falcons reach state track finals Paced by freshman Elizabeth Donnelly’s and junior Tanner Lobdell’s second-place finishes, South Whidbey was well represented at the state 1A meet in Cheney on May 29. Donnelly set her personal record at 2:17.34 in the 800-meter race. She bested her previous fast mark that day by nearly six seconds. Lobdell ran the fastest 400-meter race of his career in 50.35 seconds. Allie Vanbenschoten, a junior, finished in fourth place in the 300-meter hurdles. Her time of 47.03 seconds was just shy of her personal-best set at the bi-district meet May 23. The Falcon boys 1,600-meter relay team placed eighth. Cameron Lobdell, Evan Mellish, Cole Zink, and Tanner Lobdell combined for a time of 3:35.64, one of the group’s faster times of the season. Kristen Schuster, a senior, finished in 10th place in the girls discus. Her best throw of 106 feet, 2 inches represented her third-farthest distance this season. Bailey Forsyth, a sophomore, missed out on the 100meter finals after placing 10th in the preliminary heats, just shy of a finals-qualifying mark. Her time of 13.08 seconds was her third-best time of the season.

from across the road at South Whidbey High School. They were, or at least felt like they were, outsiders. “I couldn’t focus in the classrooms because they were too big and I suffer from anxiety,” said Julie CaseyPeters, 18, as tears welled in her eyes. Casey-Peters said she was bullied and didn’t feel supported in her previous school. Years ago she fell off her horse and suffered some head trauma and was nearly blind. That kept her out of class and she fell behind. Having enrolled at South Whidbey Academy two years ago, she has since been an exemplary student. “Now I’m a four-time honor roll student because of this school,” she said through teary eyes. As an equestrian competitor and trainer, she needed a flexible schedule that allowed her to work in Coupeville. Karin Fifield, 18, of Freeland, said she transferred to the academy seeking a new atmosphere. She grew up on Whidbey and wanted a “healthier” place to learn. “I’ve been called a freak … The schools never did any-

Other students needed self-directed classes to earn make-up credits for previously failed courses. Daryck Porter, who has been in the alternative program for three years, said the smaller class sizes helped him receive

By hook or by crook, they kept straight “A”s throughout their courses, which were by no means a cumulative cakewalk. They took advanced placement classes designed to be college preparation and tested into receiving college credit for several of them, from biology to U.S. history to statistics. Hopeful world travelers, both Dübendorf and de Wolf took at least three years of Spanish, plus one year of Russian and French, respectively. Both students were praised by educators as upstanding young women and excellent students. “It’s pretty easy to come to work when you have kids like that,” said Andy Davis, a math teacher who had both students over the years and now has them as peer tutors. “They do a nice job of being the smart kid who can bring themselves to the level of the struggling student,” he added. With their school work largely finished and final tests all taken, they took some time away from their math peer tutor period to chat with The Record about what was required of them for perfect grades and where they’re headed. Isla Dübendorf has a crystal-clear vision of what career she wants. Having grown up on a small South Whidbey farm with goats, chickens and horses, Dübendorf said she plans to pursue a doctorate in veterinary medicine. “It’s something I’ve always had a pas-
more individualized instruction. He was receiving special education instruction in elementary school, moved to regular classes by middle school, but started failing. “At this school, I’ve gotten to the point where I’m graduating,” he said. Also, finding a place where he felt accepted helped Porter, 19, who said he lived in “Frangley,” the Goss Lakearea between Langley and Freeland. “I’m the stereotype kid,” he
sion for since I was young,” she said. The lifelong vegetarian said two of her family’s goats were saved from becoming dinner. Performing some of the less savory acts, such as euthanizing pets and livestock, won’t be an issue for her. She’s already witnessed a few surgeries and accompanied her parents when their goat and horse were euthanized. Both ended up being buried, one in Coupeville at a large animal cemetery and the other in her family’s property. “We don’t eat any of the animals,” she laughed. The straight-A student said she came close to losing perfect grades as a freshman. In her second semester of algebra, her grade was slipping but she spoke with the teacher for help and got back on track. It wasn’t like she was ever close to failing, however. “I don’t like to have anything below a 94, so I have wiggle room,” she said. Her studious nature is well known among her peers. Citing her extensive and meticulous notes from class, de Wolf said most people associate Dübendorf was being a model learner. “I’ve never cried after an AP bio test,” de Wolf said through a wry smile while nodding toward Dübendorf in the high school’s staff conference room. Dübendorf, in her quest to be the best, said the stress of a high-stakes test has gotten the better of her emotions from time to time. But each result came back with high marks, so she’s learning to stress less. The competitive ski racer knows a thing or two about stress. She’s been a downhill skier for years, though she admitted that this final season was a
said, pointing to his full beard and leather jacket. “I don’t fit in the ‘normal’ crowd, I get stressed in that.” Seth Townsend-Tyers, 18, has been in an alternative program most of his life. He was in the Cedar School program in Coupeville prior to enrolling at the Bayview School, which became South Whidbey Academy and relocated in 2012. He said he wanted to attend Bayview because of its reputation as a place for the outsiders and
disappointment because of the conditions at Stevens Pass and a leg injury her younger brother sustained, keeping the family split during weekend ventures to the mountain slopes. “I love the adrenaline,” she said. When she wasn’t studying or skiing, Dübendorf spent time playing for the varsity girls soccer and girls tennis teams the past four years. She spent summers as a tennis instructor and swim instructor. Dübendorf was an Associated Student Body representative for three years as a ninth-grade senator, 10th-grade public relations director and 12th-grade treasurer. Seeking ways to volunteer, she joined the school’s Spanish Club, Key Club (a youth division of Kiwanis), and National Honor Society, in addition to helping out at the Northwest Language Academy in Langley. Maintaining perfect marks through all of the classes and extracurriculars was possible, she said, by paying attention, asking for help, and a regular sleep cycle. “Start the semester off strong,” she said. “Try to get as much sleep as you can.” In pursuit of her veterinary ambitions, Dübendorf will enroll in the honors program as a Regents Scholar at Washington State University. Her parents are both graduates of the Pullman-based university, and its veterinary program lured her to the eastern limit of Washington state. “I wanted to get away but not too far,” she said.

second-chance students. “One of my initial attractions to the Bayview School was that connotation,” Townsend-Tyers said. Madinah Goodson, 20, came to Clinton from the San Antonio, Texas area this year. Dyslexic and with a diagnosed anxiety disorder, she fell behind in the Lone Star State and was facing getting her high school diploma in 2018. Moving to Whidbey, she only needed one class this year to wrap up her requirements and retook others to improve her grades in math and science. “Moving here and having people that took the time to help me really made a difference,” she said. Goodson will be one of the faculty-selected student speakers at the ceremony Thursday. Only a South Whidbey Academy student for one year, she immersed herself in the school’s culture, joining the Invent team and robotics club. Previously she
wasn’t much for extracurricular academic activities. “There’s always something strange happening here and I like it,” she said. As the school continues moving toward a full alternative program rather than a last-chance school, some of the to-be grads said they hope the school retains its small-family feel. Porter cited a Christmas party the high school students organized in his first year in the alternative school. “It’s nice when the high schoolers get together and plan something,” Porter said. “It’s my second family almost,” added Fifield.

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!

DE WOLF CONTINUED FROM A9
Meaghan de Wolf readily admits to being a bit sassy and a lot sarcastic. That’s how she tells people she cares without telling them she cares, she said. “The more I make fun of people, the more I like them,” she said. Biting humor aside, de Wolf is known for her cheerful attitude, according to her fellow valedictorian.
“You’re always happy,” Dübendorf told her. “But you can be sassy at the same time.” A relentless volunteer, de Wolf logged some 620 hours as a volunteer barista at the South Whidbey Commons in Langley. She joked that she saw three different people hired as the director during her stint with the Commons before being hired at Payless Foods in Freeland. She was in the Key Club and Interact Club (a Rotary International affiliate) at the
high school, in addition to serving on the ASB as the sophomore class treasurer, junior class vice president and public relations executive as a senior. “I like being busy. Right now, I get home and lay on my bed, pull out the phone and get the movie going,” she said, imitating fluttering, drowsy eyes and motioning her head toward an imaginary pillow. Business or finance are ahead for de Wolf. She is slated to enroll at Regent’s
University London, sight unseen, this fall. She’ll take her first visit this summer during a class trip to Europe. Only recently did she start looking at her own budget as a means of exercising her mathematics prowess, citing her decision to forego the purchase of a new prom dress in favor of reusing one she already owns. “I recycled a dress for prom,” she said, citing the hassle of finding a new one and the added cost that would come out of her wallet.
Wednesday, June 3, 2015 • The South Whidbey Record
She described herself as an “intense Netflix watcher” who favors series such as “The Office,” “Parks and Recreation” and “Vampire Diaries.” Most movies or television shows can elicit one crocodile tear from her, she said. “I’m the one-tear person,” de Wolf said, putting her index finger below her eye and dragging it down like a tear. “It’s really dramatic.” de Wolf practically grew up on South Whidbey. Her family moved to the island when she was in second grade, and she’s been an island kid ever since. That never took away her desire for city life, however, and that was what eventually pulled her across the Atlantic Ocean to apply at Regent’s University London.
She’s come a long way from the girl who once wanted to be the first secret agent in space — her childhood dream job. “There’s not much crime in space, so I would’ve been pretty useless,” she laughed. Just like Dübendorf, de Wolf said one of the open secrets of good grades is having the gumption to ask for help. She didn’t understand plenty of lessons during her math and science courses, but asking for help or meeting with the teacher or peers after school or during lunch went a long way to shoring up her scores. “You have to be ready to not hang out with your friends,” she said.

Though several Viking boats had been discovered, these were used for burials and warring parties and were not designed to handle sea voyages. The knarr was designed specifically to handle the rough waters of the North Sea, and was used to freight goods along the trade routes and to settle various areas. In the early 1980s, Saga Siglar captain Ragnar Thorseth, known as “Norway’s last Viking,” began planning his roundthe-world sail. He had it in mind to replicate the knarr, and enlisted the help of Moses after the two frequented the same museum seeking information in rigging a centuries-old boat. The two worked for two years with a team of fellow enthusiasts to accurately reconstruct the knarr. Upon its completion, 700 people rolled the boat from the forest to the sea on logs, just as would have been done centuries prior. In 1984, on the anniversary of a battle which had united Norway 800 years prior, King Olav shared a ceremonial drink with the men before sending them off on their historic expedition. Moses, who divides his time between Norway and Langley, will present a slideshow and discussion of his journey titled “A Viking Adventure” at 6 p.m. Wednesday, June 3 at the Northwest Language Academy. During his presentation, Moses will discuss highlights of the journey which Thorseth himself described as “a pretty hair experience,” including their exploration of areas such as the Faroe Islands, L’Anse aux Meadows, Iceland and Greenland. He’ll also touch upon such climactic moments as the 15-hour hurricane the crew encountered between Greenland and Canada, which left the men fearful for their lives, including Thorseth who tethered his 11-year-old son to his side. “That was pretty creepy,” Moses said of surviving the hurricane. “But it also showed how well-built the boat is.” Throughout the journey, the sailors used traditional techniques when possible, such as throwing diesel fuel on the water as the Vikings used whale oil. However, they used modern technologies for safety and navigation. A film crew followed the boat for much of the journey, and several books have been written to document the expedition. The Saga Siglar sailed until 1985, when it sank in a storm just off of the coast of Spain. There were no casualties. Moses’ presentation is a part of Nordic Midsommarfest, a series of events celebrating the summer traditions of Nordic communities. The main Language of Food event will take place on Saturday, June 13 and will include a dinner, celebration and performances by Nordic artists. The most enjoyable aspect of the voyage, Moses said, was the unique experience of traveling throughout the North Sea, meeting residents of isolated and ancient communities, fishing in abundant waters and viewing incredible vistas. “When you landed in a new place you’d just buy new clothes,” Moses said of traveling throughout the North Sea. “You were so wet and smelly and exhausted, and delighted to have made it ashore and made it alive. It was an emotional roller coaster.”
