Nice article on Ted Messing, one of our members

While fighting the proposed LNG sites along our river takes a lot of time, some of our members have lives beyond fighting the threatened blight of LNG. Amazing but true! grin

Ted Messing, along with his wife Cheryl Johnson, are active members of several groups committed to saving the river from heavy industrial development. The Daily Astorian has an article about Ted that focuses on these activities along with Ted's hand-carved manzanita burl vases. Take a look at the article, and if you happen to see Ted's work somewhere, check it out. He creates some beautiful objects of desire.
