A man walks into a popular park in June. He has a tent and a backpack that includes only a few items and heads for a remote wooded area.

He never leaves the park. His body is found months later.

His death is a mystery and his life turns out to be shrouded in mystery. No one seems to know how the man got to Orcas Island or even his whereabouts for the last year.

“We’ve run into a lot of dead ends,” San Juan County Coroner Randy Gaylord said.

A fisherman found the decom-posed human remains with a wal-let in a collapsed tent located off-trail in a secluded area of Moran State Park, near the bridge over the Cascade Lake lagoon Sept. 6.

On Sept. 16, the remains were positively identified as Mehmet Tokgozoglu, a 51-year-old design engineer born in Kansas, accord-ing to Gaylord.

Although the body was severely decomposed and partially skel-etonized, one hand was in good enough condition to pull finger-prints.

Midterm elections rarely draw the big-time voter turnout typical of a presidential election year.

But with three contested county office races, including sheriff, and no fewer than six local property tax or bond measures on the Nov. 4 election ballot, San Juan County voters have plenty to pay attention to in the run-up to the 2014 gen-eral election.

“That’s an unusual number,” Auditor Milene Henley said of the property tax measures. “No one would be affected by all six, of

Contributed photos/art From the notourious to the imperiled, to the heartwarming and tragic, the 2nd Annual Friday Harbor Film Festival, Nov. 7-9, will feature 30 full-length documentaries and 13 short films about life in the Pacific Rim.

By Emily GreenbergJournal reporter

This time three years ago the Barefoot bandit was on the run.

After a series of risky, brazen thefts across the Pacific Northwest, including two planes, one each from Orcas and San Juan Island, a speedboat from Friday Harbor and another plane from Anacortes, complete with crash-landing at the Orcas Island Airport—local authorities were on the heels of Colton Harris-Moore.

The notorious teenager, who became a pop-cul-ture sensation, evaded arrest until 2011, captured in the Bahamas.

Fast forward to today, where the story has been caught on film. “The Barefoot Bandit Documentary,” directed by Carly Bodmer, depicts

Harris-Moore’s two-year international crime spree and it will premiere at the second annual Friday Harbor Film Festival, Nov. 7-9.

“Barefoot Bandit is an in-depth documentary,” said Lynn Danaher, director of the Friday Harbor Film Festival. “You get a real sense of where this very bright, misguided youth came from.”

The Friday Harbor Film Festival strives to connect countries and communities across the Pacific rim. Its mission is to entertain, inspire and enlighten filmgoers to environmental issues, social concerns, efforts in activism and humani-tarianism, and stories of grand adventure.

“We’re all neighbors of the Pacific Ocean,” Danaher said. “What happens in Papua New Guinea can affect Alaska.”

The films all have important stories to tell. In addition to the premiere of the “Barefoot Bandit,” two other full-length documentaries will be show-cased for the first time at the film festival.

“Fragile Waters,” a film by Rick Wood and Shari Macy, examines the perils faced by the plum-

Mapping theSan Juans

Stephen Foster Salsbury (age 64), was a highly regarded father, elder brother, uncle, and longtime resident of San Juan Island, Wash.

He passed peacefully at home while appreciating the gen-erous support of the community, on Aug. 7, 2014.

His personal struggles with Lou Gehrig's disease (ALS), is foreshadowed by many unique lifetime achievements, and the loving memory he has left us with.

Born on May 31, 1950 to Jean Claire and Allen Salsbury in Seattle, Wash., he was raised in an artistically minded home; with design, music, painting, nature, and family at the heart of education. He resided as an adult on San Juan Island, Twisp, Wash. (or over the mountains, as he would have said) and on “The Big Island” of Hawaii, building his own homes by hand for his family along the way, as well as improving and loving the land he built on.

He was a talented carver, vegetable gardener, and can-ning/preserving expert—his soft dried mangoes and bananas were like none-other. He was a keeper-of-bees and farmer of bananas, and regularly shared both with neigh-bors and friends through the years.

Stephen's passion for both the ocean and land was shown with his intricate knowledge of both native Hawaiian and Washington wildlife, and the care he gave to preserving the habitat that surrounded him. Whether it's an eagle flying overhead, a woodpecker mistaking our house for a dead

tree or an otter playing in the ocean, he always took a moment to take notice, appreciate, and be thankful.

But more than anything, he was a wonderful father, brother, uncle and friend to any who crossed his path, his first passion was always his family and loved ones.

He is survived by his car-ing daughter Leilani Simone Dyer of San Juan Island, brother Scott Salsbury, sister Susanna Salsbury (Thaddeus Krol), and nephews Zecca Lehn and Javas Lehn.

His family and close friends will remember him for

his kind, loving, and gentle ways and the ever present posi-tivity as he faced each new day. He is preceded in death by his loving mother and father.

A private traditional Hawaiian ceremony was held for his immediate family.

etting populations of resident orca whale and

Chinook salmon of the Salish Sea. The film takes place in the heart of the San Juan Islands, a melt-ing pot for environmental research and preservation, and explores the intercon-nection between people, whales, water and fish. Profiling orca experts, fish-erman, hatchery scientists and Native American tribal leaders, the film uncovers the community at work to prevent an ecological disas-ter.

“Our film really centers on the San Juan Islands, the epicenter of the Southern Resident orcas’ range,” the film’s co-director Rick Wood said. “We need peo-ple to see the film, that’s the only way we’ll save the Southern residents and chi-nook salmon. There’s this tiny window of opportunity in which we can do what needs to be done.”

“Material of the Future,” directed by Vern Moen, challenges the role plastic plays in daily life. Inspired

by the recent discovery of the floating island of gar-bage in the Pacific, the material that equipped humankind with the means to land on the moon and rebuild the human heart is poisoning the land and sea. The film not only presents the problems, but offers thought-provoking solu-tions.

A non-profit organiza-tion, the Friday Harbor Film Festival has 40 business sponsors this year. Since the event is being held in November this year (a year ago the inaugural festival took place in mid-October), much of that support has gone directly into advertis-ing, and to getting the word out. The organization has received tremendous com-munity support, but is still short on cash.

“We’re in dire straights for funding,” Danaher said. “This is by far the biggest challenge we face.”

The first of six shiny, new fire engines arrived at San Juan Island Fire and Rescue on the morning of Sept. 12.

The new engines will replace five fire trucks that are nearly 30 years old, and satisfy an insurance indus-try requirement that penal-izes policy holder’s when a community’s fire engines are more than ten years old.

Two of the retiring fire engines will go to Shaw Island to aide fire suppres-sion capabilities, and one

will serve as a shared emer-gency reserve engine for use on Orcas, Lopez, Shaw and San Juan Island. The remaining three will even-tually be sold.

By settling a bond debt ahead of schedule, the fire district was able to purchase the new fire engines without asking voters to raise their fire tax. They were built in Lyons, S. Dakota, and bought through General Fire Apparatus of Spokane, Wash.

The cost of each engine is approximately $350,000, but when adjusted for inflation

cost less than the engines purchased in 1986.

withstanding, FHFF has incorporated major changes to this year’s format. Entry passes will be sold in incre-ments of four, eight and 12 films per ticket, and a single pass can be shared among several people. The num-ber of full-length films has increased from 25 to 30 and there will be 13 short films. The festival will sponsor a Young Filmmakers Project and feature films submitted by student filmmakers from the region.

The festival will be sans celebrities, but rich with art-ists and activists who each bring a unique voice and story told through the lens.

“The filmmakers them-selves are the celebrities,” Danaher said. “They’re the

ones going out into the world making underfund-ed, extraordinarily impor-tant films and doing it for the love of the medium. Robert Redford can come,

but he’ll be just like any other attendant.”

Guild backs challenger in sheriff campaign

Journal staff reportThe rank and file of the Sheriff 's Department

have made their choice known.The San Juan County Deputy Sheriffs Guild

Wednesday endorsed deputy Ron Krebs and his candidacy for San Juan County sheriff.

An eight-year veteran of the local force and first-time sheriff 's candidate, Krebs is challeng-ing the incumbent, Sheriff Rob Nou, a former department deputy elected to a first term in office in 2010.

The Guild, which represents the department's deputies, detectives, sergeants, dispatch and cor-rections staff, 28 members in all, voted in over-whelming numbers to endorse Krebs, following a questions-and-answer forum with each candi-date Monday, Sept. 15.

A "small fraction" of guild members chose to abstain from the vote, including Krebs, according to a Sept. 17 guild press release. The rest of the

members voted in favor of Krebs."We, the Guild, believe Ron Krebs will bring

back community policing, citizen responsive-ness, honesty and integrity, communication and moral into the San Juan County Sheriff 's Office," a Guild press release said.

According to the guild, questions fielded by the two candidates involved missing and outdat-ed policy and procedures, poor morale, multiple problems with patrol boats, dispatch safety and security concerns, communication issues, bud-get, weak relations within other county entities,

fire and EMS providers, inactive reserve program and physical fitness for duty.

The Sheriff oversees a 35-person department and yearly budget of $4.9 million, including $2.7 million for department operations, $1 million for dispatch, $800,00 for Emergency Management and nearly $400,000 for the jail. At full staffing, the department consists of 21 deputies, detec-tives and field corrections officers, nine dispatch employees, and four other employees.

Krebs moved to the San Juans and joined the department in 2006. A Marine Corps veteran, he is a past sheriff 's guild president, department representative on the Washington Council of Police and Sheriff 's, and is a field training officer and boater safety instructor.

A former Oregon police chief who joined the department as a deputy in 2008, Nou drew the endorsement of eight members of the guild in the five-candidate 2010 sheriff 's race. He soared into the office on the heels of a landslide victory in the general election, collecting 66 percent of votes cast in that two-way finale.

An elected, non-partisan position, the sheriff earns an annual salary of $103,595.

course, the most would be three (Friday Harbor). But at least one or two would apply to everyone. I’d say that’s probably the most interesting thing about the ballot.”

But certainly not the only thing.

In fact, rules governing firearms, purchase or pos-session of, could become more onerous or less restric-tive depending on the out-come of statewide Initiative 591 and Initiative 594. And, the Legislature would be required to allocate enough funding to reduce class size and increase staff sup-port for all K-12 schools—more for high-poverty area schools—should Initiative

1351 pass. In the federal arena, Rep.

Rick Larsen, D-Everett, must fend off a challenge from Republican oppo-nent B.J. Guillot to secure an eighth consecutive two-year term in the U.S. House of Representatives. Closer to home, incum-bent state Rep. Kristine Lytton, D-Anacortes, is vying against San Juan Island’s own Daniel Miller, Jr., Republican Party chal-lenger, in the 40th District legislative race.

The outcome of the November election will also determine who will manage

three county offic-es for the next four years. The treasur-er’s race pits two candidates mak-ing a first-ever bid for public office, Tony Fyrqvist and

Rhonda Pederson, while two-term incumbent Joan White faces political new-comer Nancy Vejvoda in the non-partisan contest for clerk of the court (the position oversees business affairs of superior and juve-nile courts).

In arguably the highest in profile of the local races, first-term incumbent Rob Nou takes on deputy Ron Krebs in the race for San Juan County Sheriff. Nou garnered 66 percent of bal-lots cast in 2010 to earn a four-year term in the top tier of local law enforce-

ment. A repeated landslide appears unlikely this year, however, as the San Juan

and industrial corporation, until 2006, and he had a security clearance, which consisted of fingerprints found in the FBI’s database. Gaylord worked with Snohomish Medical Examiner’s Office to positively match the prints. As for the cause of death, Gaylord said at this point it’s “undetermined.”No evidence of foul play

“There was nothing about where he was found to make a conclusion that there was a suicide or some kind of improper death or homicide,” said Gaylord. “As to whether it was a natural death or an accident we can’t quite tell.”

According to Undersheriff Bruce Distler, the San Juan County’s Sheriff ’s Office turned the case over to the coroner’s because they also concluded that it was not a homicide.

“For instance, no weapons were found and there was nothing pointing to anything sinister,” said Distler. “At this point in time we don’t have an indication one way or another.”

Mystery in death, and in lifeThe facts that are known

have been compiled from Tokgozoglu’s past.

From interviewing the deceased man’s family mem-bers, a landlord and former employers, Gaylord has pieced together a patchy narrative. Tokgozoglu was born to a Turkish father, an orthopedic surgeon, and an

American mother in Kansas.

According to his LinkedIn profile, Tokgozoglu attended Kansas State University from 1992 to 1998.

He was self-employed since 2006 as a design engineer focusing on electronic design and computers. According to Gaylord, one landlord heard that Tokgozoglu wanted to design apps for smart phones and perhaps wanted to move to Seattle to pursue that goal.

Even more telling may be the newspaper found in his backpack dated May 21, 2014 with a front page spread on “Amazon battles gaming giants.”

The newspaper also sported a large adver-tisement for visiting the San Juans. Gaylord said Tokgozoglu’s family described him as extremely private, especially when it came to his work at Raytheon, possibly because it required a security clearance. Tokgozoglu’s last known address was in the Dallas-Plano area in 2013. At some point he put items in

a storage unit. According to Gaylord, any history about

Tokgozoglu after August 2013 could not be found. What is known is that Tokgozoglu pitched a tent in an isolated area near Cascade Lake close to a popular trail. He was only in the area for a night or two.

“The site wasn’t trampled down like someone had been there long; there was no campfire, no food or trash,” said Gaylord.

There was also no food found in the backpack or the surrounding area. Several bottles of water were found by the tent.

Gaylord estimates that the man died in early June. A computer and a hard drive were found in Tokgozoglu’s backpack, but the computer was wet and would not start and the hard drive was encrypted.

Deceased’s car missing Gaylord hopes the public might know

something about Tokgozoglu or the loca-tion of a car registered to him—a green Toyota Camry with Texas license DS9 S617, which could hold more information. The car has not yet been found.

“There are still a lot of unanswered ques-tions,” said Gaylord.

“There are still a lot of unanswered questions.”

— Randy Gaylord, , San Juan County Coroner

The Town of Friday Harbor is seeking public participation in a survey to help identify the perceived image of the town and pro-vide direction for marketing the town as a place to live, grow a business, start a new business, and vacation.

A four-week survey, nine questions, is available on the Town web site, www.friday-harbor.org, and at, bit.ly/branding-fh, through Oct. 15. Anyone with interest in Friday Harbor can respond

to the survey; it is not lim-ited to county residents.

The survey is con-ducted by Roger Brooks International, the company selected to help coordinate the town Branding and Marketing initiative.

“These survey results from the public will be the foundation of our proj-ect.” town Administrator Duncan Wilson said. “The input we receive will be instrumental in focusing our efforts going forward.”

department’s sworn officers and dispatch staff, 28 in all, up-ended the status quo last week by throwing its support behind Krebs’ candidacy, endorsing the

eight-year department veteran and first-time sheriff candidate. Since pocketbook issues tend to draw voters and with a

half-dozen local property tax or bond measures on the ballot, turnout for the Nov. 4 could be big, midterm or not.

All voters in all precincts will have opportunity to weigh in on San Juan County Proposition 1, which would replace and continue for another six years a property tax increase approved by voters in 2009. That measure came with a so-called “sunset clause” built in. The ‘09 increase expires in 2015 unless renewed by voters.

At 18 cents per $1,000 of assessed value, Prop. 1 would gen-

erate roughly $1.1 million beginning in 2015 and is earmarked for 10 functions within the county fold, including parks, public health, senior services and maintenance of Islands’ Oil Spill Association equipment.

“Assessed values have gone down since 2009,” Henley said. “The 18 cents is merely replacing what was there before at the same level. It’s not a new tax.”

In addition to county Prop. 1 and a school bond measure, Lopez Island voters will also weigh in on a new tax, a one-year “excess levy” that would generate $115,000 for the Lopez Solid Waste District. Voters on Orcas Island will cast votes for county Prop. 1 and a school property measure, for technology and facility upgrades, as well.

On San Juan Island, voters will weigh in on county Prop. 1 and an extension and increase in the public hospital district’s property tax that funds emergency medical services (district boundaries include voters on San Juan’s nearby outer islands as well). Friday Harbor voters will help determine the fate of county Prop. 1 and the hospital district’s EMS levy, and will decide upon a proposed .02 percent sales tax increase, revenue from which would be used to fund transportation improve-ments in the town.

There’s much at stake in the outcome of the November elec-tion, even if it is midterm.

PUBLIC MEETINGS

By Colleen Smith ArmstrongEditor/Publisher

It was a beautiful August day and Doug Maya had just finished playing soccer with his girlfriend’s daughter, Jayna.

As they drove down Roche Harbor Road in Friday Harbor, Maya noticed smoking coming out of an RV in a mobile home park.

“At first it looked like someone was cooking or burning something,” he said. “But then I smelled it – and I know the smell of structure fire well.”

As a San Juan County Sheriff ’s Deputy on Orcas and a volunteer fire-fighter, Maya immediately went into action. He looked inside and could see a pair of legs on the floor through the smoke. After yelling for the person to wake up, Maya went inside and pulled him out.

After regaining consciousness, the

young man asked him to help his friend. Maya went back inside the RV, which was now fully engulfed in smoke, and assisted another man out. He then called 911.

“I felt a little naked because I didn’t have any gear, but it was a small space with easy access – if things went side-ways I could have gotten out,” Maya said.

San Juan Island firefighters arrived at the scene shortly after, at about 3:20 p.m., and pulled a smoldering mattress and other simmering household items out of the RV, extinguishing the lot before any of it burst into flames.

"There was quite a bit of toxic smoke coming off that mattress," San Juan Island Fire Department Assistant Chief Brad Creesy said. The two occu-pants were transported to Peace Island Hospital, evaluated and released.

“Afterwards, I got back in the truck

and Jayna’s eyes were huge,” Maya said. “I said, ‘ok, let’s go!’ You just don’t really think about it.”

News briefsPierce Transit CEO picked to lead state Ferries

Lynne Griffith of Pierce Transit is the new boss at Washington State Ferries.

State Department of Transportation Secretary Lynn Peterson announced the appointment of the 64-year-old public transpor-tation veteran to the Ferries top post Sept. 10. Griffith, with 35 years' experience in the transit, airlines and rail industries, but no maritime background, was selected assistant secretary of DOT's Ferries division from a field of 80 applicants, and in a second search to secure a replacement for former WSF chief David Moseley, who resigned from the post earlier this year.

“Our ferry system is an iconic symbol of the state of Washington and a vital link in our statewide transporta-tion system," Peterson said. "It will be in good hands with Assistant Secretary Griffith.”

Griffith, who was slated

to step down as CEO of Pierce Transit at the end of the year, will being her assignment at WSF in early October. In addition to the top post at Pierce Transit, Griffith is former CEO of Clark County's C-Tran and managed bus and special-ized transportation for those with disabilities at Atlanta's MARTA, among the largest transit authori-ties in the nation.

Washington State Ferries operates a fleet of 22 boats, carries more than 22 mil-lion passengers annu-ally with 163,000 sailings, and boasts a workforce of roughly 1,700 employees.

WSF fall sailing schedule, Oct. 1

Ferry passengers in the San Juan Islands will have one less boat available but no summer surcharge when Washington State Ferries begins its fall sailing sched-ule, Oct. 1

Similar to the spring

schecule, WSF will operate with four boats in service on San Juan routes and with one roundtrip daily sail-ing between Anacortes and Sidney, British Columbia, with a stopover in Friday Harbor.

‘Elitist’ accusation misses the mark

To Journal readers:There was miscommu-

nication involved in the situation concerning the future of Our Lady of Good Voyage Chapel at the Roche Harbor Resort.

Many St. Francis parish-ioners received an email a few days ago, which was thought to represent the entire parish and adminis-tration, but it did not; it reflected the desires of some members of the Tarte fam-ily, who want the chapel to remain a consecrated space for Catholic worship during the summer season.

When the resort was sold to non-Catholics, St. Francis parishioners realized it was likely there would be discus-sion concerning what the best use of the chapel might be, and in fact there is ongo-ing discussion at this time among the Archdiocese of Seattle, the Tarte family, and the resort.

There is certainly no “elit-ist” mentality involved here. The worship services at the chapel have always wel-comed anyone who wants to join us, and in fact thou-sands of visitors over the years have done so.

Please notice that St. Francis Parish is not involved in the official dis-cussions; there is no doubt a variety of feelings and opin-ions among our parishio-ners concerning whatever changes may be forthcom-ing.

Hail to keepers ofisland parks, trails

As someone who spends much of my free time exploring island trails, I want to thank Lee Taylor and all of her staff and vol-unteers at San Juan Island National Historical Park for their recent efforts.

The ongoing prairie res-toration work at American Camp reflects an active and thoughtful approach to land management that’s most welcome, and is the result of months of toil by many I’m sure.

Coupled with the ongo-ing controlled burns on Mt. Young, the smooth transi-tion to NPS management of the former DNR Mitchell Hill and private Westcott Bay properties, and many other less obvious initia-tives, we on the island are blessed to have such gems of open space all around us, and are lucky that they’re in such good hands.

Often it’s negative feed-back that gets the most attention, but it feels impor-tant to appreciate the time and effort it takes to main-tain some of these incred-ible resources that we might otherwise take for granted.

A sweet reunion, glad to be home

I recently had the oppor-tunity to take a step back in time.

My husband and I came home for my 50th Friday Harbor High Class Reunion.

Imagine walking into a room and being transport-ed back to 1964 where you felt you were continuing a

conversation that you had started 50 years ago.

Sadly, out of a class of 20, three were no longer with us but they were there in our hearts, and three couldn’t make it but they were with us in our minds.

I laughed, I cried and I remembered the most amazing times of my youth. I love you all so much.

Part of this wonderful week included spending four days at the San Juan County Fair.

During those four days I realized that, while many of the faces of the people I talked to have changed, what hasn’t changed is the friendliness of the island-ers, and I realized that it is the people that create the magic of the islands.

Everyone I talked to had a common goal, that is the care and concern for their community. Strangers became friends and friends became better friends, and I remembered Fairs of long ago, the smells, the fun and the safety.

I am proud to be a 2nd-generation islander, with a son who is a 3rd-generation islander and who gives so much to the community, and who loves it so much.

My parents, Brian and Fern Ingoldsby, would be so proud, too.

I want to thank my class-mates for welcoming us all home. I plan to come back to the Fair next year and I hope that I can spend all four days meeting and making new friends.

You all gave me one of the best weeks of my life, in a place that holds my heart.

Simply symbiotic; Honey bees provide Nature’s sweetest gift

By Emily GreenbergJournal Reporter

Honey bees, bumble bees and yes, even flies, are responsible for much of the local bounty celebrated in the month-long food and farm festivities known as Savor the San Juans. While each creature deserves honorable mention, the honey bee is in a class of its own.

The art of beekeeping is not a casual sport, but requires attention to detail. Pesticides can cause bee populations to collapse. Creating a habitat conducive to foraging that enables bees to survive through the winter takes careful planning.

Colleen Howe, of Mitchell Bay Farm and Nursery, an organic farm on San Juan Island, began keeping bees 35 years ago for their honey. She quickly real-ized they play a key role in her orchard's success.

"People were having trouble with their fruits and I wasn't," Howe said. "That's when I realized it's such a benefit to have bees."

Bees can be kept primarily for their honey, but the benefits extend far beyond. Howe grows and sells a variety of crops, including Asian pears and smooth-skin kiwis, both of which rely heavily on pol-lination. Credit goes not only to the honey bees, Howe said, but to the native bumble bees and flies as well.

"If we want to eat it, it doesn't have to be pollinated by a honeybee," Howe said. "Even flies could do it. They never get any press. I've never seen a 'Save the Flies' t-shirt."

Pesticides linked to hive collapseMajor devastation struck Howe's hives in March. The bees were

fine on a Friday and two days later thousands were dead. The rate at which they perished points to pesticides as the culprit.

"Bees have a two mile comfortable range," Howe said. "There's a huge amount of landowners in between. Bees don't just die that quickly."

A commercial grower and a homesteader growing nearly all of her own food, Howe recognizes the importance of helping the natural fertilization of plants along in anyway she can. Some suggest pesticides as the cause of major die-offs, both honey and bumble bees. That's why it's imperative to create a healthy habitat for all pollinators, Howe says, that means keeping areas unsprayed and un-mowed to promote foraging.

Thirty-five years of beekeeping and farming on the island has given Howe a strong foundation of beekeeping knowledge. Skip a generation, and you'll find the craft still alive and well.

New keeper on the blockEnter Brady Ryan, a charismatic 28 year-old born and raised on the island,

that has taken entrepreneurial initiative on his parent's land, Ryan Family Farm. Ryan manages a small apiary where he founded San Juan Island Honey and San Juan Island Sea Salt. Ryan sells honey at local farmer's markets where tourists are a big part of the business.

"People don't just want to take home a t-shirt," He said. "They want a taste of that place. Something that came from the land."

Ryan studied math at the University of Washington, but gravitated toward the campus farm where he unearthed a passion for growing food. After gradu-ating, Ryan worked at a vegetable farm in Snoqualmie Valley and moved on to Seattle's Ballard Bee Company, where he learned the beekeeping craft.

Island harvested honeyHoney is stabilized nectar, essentially, food that the bee's store for winter.

For the bees, making honey is an intricate, complicated and sometimes volatile process complete with a queen, her loyal subjects, and virgins

fighting to the death to claim the title as queen of the new clan. "It's very Romanesque," Ryan said.

Honey is harvested in late July and early August. Ryan is care-ful to leave enough food for the bees to last the winter.

"Surviving the winter is key," He said. "An established hive will produce closer to 35 pounds, and a new hive closer to 10." This year Ryan harvested an average of 18 to 20 pounds of

honey per hive. He sold a total of 350 pounds this summer and has only 12 jars left as of Sept. 19. He plans to increase the number of hives

each year at SJI Honey. Ryan has been stung by the beekeeping bug (and by bees themselves) and his

passion for honey is unwavering. And for Colleen Howe, in spite of turbulence over the years beekeeping has stuck to her like, well, honey sticks to beeswax.

"Once you get them you just want to keep them," Howe said. "Once you realize the whole cycle you learn to pay attention. They really make you more aware."

8 — Wednesday, September 24, 2014 The Journal of the San Juan Islands | SanJuanJournal.com

Join the Co-op Team!

Orcas Power & Light Cooperative (OPALCO) is hiring as staff retirements and promotions create new job openings

GIS (Geographic Information Systems) Technician with experience in GIS, AutoCAD, database, GPS or comparable systems. Main responsibilities include updating system and elec-trical maps, tracking system changes and outages and providing services to other departments to facilitate their needs. This is an Eastsound (preferably) based, bargaining unit, full- time position with some travel to other districts as needed.

This position opened after Alan Smith was promoted to Engineering Technician. Alan began his career at OPALCO through a high-school internship in 2003.

Experienced communication professional to implement a broad range of communications and outreach strategies including web-site development and maintenance, public affairs and member communication. Successful candidates will have a good working knowledge of WordPress and Microsoft Office products; excellent research, writing and editing skills; and a strong track record in technical communications. This is an Eastsound-based, full-time, exempt position.

This position opened after Suzanne Olson was promoted to Public Relations Administrator. Suzanne was hired in 2008.

Head Accountant with at least seven years experience in account-ing and a proven track record as a supervisor of professional support staff. Minimum requirements include a bachelor’s degree or equivalent in accounting and current designation as a Certified Public Accountant. Successful candidate must be able to obtain a valid CPA license in the state of Washington.

This position opened after Nancy Loomis was promoted to Manager of Finance & Administration. Nancy was hired in 2007.

Network Engineer with at least ten years experience to support Information Technology services that serve OPALCO’s electrical system as well as the design, configuration and utilization of OPALCO’s grid control backbone to serve external customers. This includes integration of technologies such as SCADA and AMR as well as all hardware, software and infrastructure to support OPALCO’s Network Operating Center and internal operations. Responsibilities include technology design, review and planning; equipment specification and maintenance, budgeting, scheduling, internal and external customer service and relationship management. This is a full-time exempt position.

This is a new position to prepare for near-future retirements and to meet the demands of internal and external technology needs.

This is an exciting transition time at our local electric cooperative and there are a number of positions open as a natural cycle of retirements and promotions create new employment opportunities for the community. Foster Hildreth took the reins as General Manager in September, as Randy J. Cornelius retired after 12 years of service. The average OPALCO employee stays with the Co-op for about 12 years and in the last eighteen months, we’ve said fond farewells to Todd Shaner, Superintendent of Operations (33 years); Ginny Reagles, Member Services Representative (18 years); Jim Schubert, Member Services Engineer (10 years); Rex Stickle, Work Order Clerk (9 years). There is another round of retirees on the near horizon in Engineering, Operations and Administration. This is a natural ebb and flow that OPALCO plans for – and it’s also a significant changing of the guard.

Why do people stay so long at OPALCO? The ideals of a cooperative: fairness, participation, education, cooperation and concern for community create a strong and healthy foundation for the workplace culture. Many positions provide on-the-job training and opportunities to grow within the Co-op family. OPALCO pays a fair wage, based on the mid-range for our national utility industry. OPALCO is able to provide excellent benefits by joining cooperative forces nationwide (900+ co-ops across the U.S.) with the National Rural Electric Cooperative Association. Benefits include health care coverage, vacation and sick leave, retirement and holiday leave.

Job openings are posted online at www.opalco.com/jobs. Applications are only accepted for jobs that are currently listed. To apply, read the job description online and then download an OPALCO employment application form. All applications should include a cover letter, resume and OPALCO application form and can be sent to Bev Madan at 183 Mt. Baker Road, Eastsound, WA 98245 or [email protected]. OPALCO is an equal opportunity employer.

has been linked to increased community engagement and overall

personal awesomeness.

! WARNINGAround TownCrime novelist; at Griffin Bay

Oregon author Warren Easely will be at Griffin Bay Bookstore, Sept. 27, 2-4 p.m. to introduce and dis-cuss his latest Cal Claxton mystery, “Dead Float.” Fly fishing, river rafting and Oregon wine country make up the scenery of this mur-derous tale.

The protagonist, once a high-profile L.A. prosecu-tor, is determined to rein-vent himself. Living in an old farmhouse overlook-ing miles of vineyards, he works as a small town law-yer. When asked to assist a friend guiding a group of executives on the Deschutes River, the company’s CEO

is murdered. Who better to solve the crime than the inquisitive Cal Claxton?

A classic whodunit with stunning Pacific Northwest imagery, suspense, and even a love triangle com-poses this tale of a man seeking simplicity, and finding mystique.

“Dead Float” is the third novel in the Cal Claxton mystery series. Easley lives in Portland, Oregon, where he writes fiction and tutors GED students.

Dance Happy offers free classes

In addition to ongoing dance classes for children, Dance Happy is offering free dance classes Oct. 4, at Dance Workshop 2 on Spring Street.

Bring your tots in tutus and tap shoes for the follow-ing; Creative Pre Ballet, ages 2-4, 11:30-12:00 p.m. Ballet, Tap and Improv, ages 4-5, 12:15-1:00 p.m. Arrive 10 minutes prior to each class.

Mobile dental van returns

Fish for Teeth dental van will be in Friday Harbor, Oct. 3-4, at the Mullis Center. The mobile dentistry will provide

care for individuals that reg-ularly can’t afford it. Healthy teeth and gums is imperative to overall health of the body and FFT is here to help.

Applications can be downloaded at fishforteeth.com and dropped off at the San Juan County Health department. Scheduling will be done according to the severity of the dental issue.

Follow the light to Art Stock fest

Artstock Fall Festival of Art returns for its eighth year and will feature exhibi-tions presented by members of the Friday Harbor Gallery Assoc., Oct. 4-5, 3:30-7 p.m.

This ongoing celebration begins at Brickworks on Nichols Street and contin-ues throughout the evening at various locations around town. Look for the amber lights that will illuminate participating galleries and eateries.

‘Start spreading the news,’ Jimmy Moe ‘Sinatra’ show

San Juan Community Theatre presents the Jimmy Moe Show, Sept. 27, 7:30 p.m. This one man band is doing it his way, and tributes the smooth sounds of Frank Sinatra by island resident Jimmy Moe.

Donning a black suit and tie, and with his own natural blue eyes to complete the ensemble, Moe will sing the classic Sinatra sounds from the 1950s and ‘60s.

The Gubelman Theatre will set the stage for the debut that could melt those little town blues away and perhaps kickstart a national tour. Tickets are $15.

Firewood, Fuel& Stoves

NOTICEWashington State law requires wood sellers to provide an invoice (re- ceipt) that shows the seller’s and buyer’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 cord by visualizing 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.To make a firewood complaint, call 360-902- 1857.

Journal photo / Scott RasmussenRunning back Willie Blackmon avoids the defensive pursuit on the way to a 60-yard touchdown run.

Wolverines topple Loggers in a rout; 43-6By Scott RasmussenJournal editor

With a bit more muscle and a lot more speed, the Wolverines claimed their second win of the season in a 43-6 route at home, Friday, Sept. 19, over Darrington.

Though they did yield yardage to a robust Loggers running attack, the Friday Harbor defense refused to break, holding the visitors scoreless until midway through the fourth period but with a victory already in hand. The win helped soothe a 6-point loss on the road the pre-vious week at Concrete.

"This was our redemption week," quarterback Peter Holt said.

The defensive unit took the field with a bit of a chip on its shoulder.

"We were fired up," said linebacker Gabe Lawson, who helped squash sev-eral Darrington drives with a pair

of sacks deep in the visiting team's backfield. "I think me and Kai (linebackers) led the team in tackles tonight, and that's the way it should be."

The Wolverines shared the wealth on the scoreboard, with seven touchdowns scored by six different players, including a "pick-six" intercep-tion by defensive end Luke Stromberg.

Track-and-field star Willie Blackmon lit up the scoreboard on the team's first possession with a 35-yard touchdown run, the first of two TD's in the senior’s first game of the season. Blackmon shredded the Darrington’s defensive front and left a score of Loggers in the dust on a 60-yard touchdown dash late in the second period. The Wolverines led 30-0 at the half.

Juniors Thomas Synoground and Ben Ware joined Blackmon, Holt and Stromberg on the

touchdown train. With the win, the Wolverines improved to 2-1 and gathered momentum for showdown at home against Northwest 2B League-leading La Conner (2-0), at home, Friday; kick off is 6:30 p.m.

Emma Wickman

‘Hat-trick’ by Wickman highlights 8-0 FH win

Sophomore Emma Wickman made her presence known in the first home match of the season, scoring her first three goals on the varsity team to notch the celebrated "hat-trick" and leading the Wolverines to a 8-0 victory Sept. 18 over Concrete.
