This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit chadcrouch.substack.comNothing like a trip to the ocean to start a new year! I feel so fortunate to live just over an hour away from one of the most beautiful coastlines on this planet.This recording was made at Yoakam Point, near Coos Bay Oregon, about 4 hours down the coast. It's a uniquely beautiful sounding surf here, I have to say.And you might think to yourself, all beaches sound nice, Chad. And well, it would be hard-hearted of me to try to argue with you on that point. They all do sound nice, but some just sound more nice. The tuning here must have something to do with the rocks that reach into the ocean lake a giant hand, as if playing the surf like so many harp strings. The scarp ridges reflect the sound waves of the tumbling surf like a giant instrument, but not in a way that sounds like mush. The contours are clean and the details are sharp. If you listen closely you'll hear the distant moan of a fog horn on the low end (though I did soften it considerably with a low scoop EQ) and the peals of Pigeon Guillemot on the high end of this soundscape. Now if you're like me, you might wonder, why is it called “Yoakam Point”? And, if you're like me, not finding an answer at the ready makes this one of life's little mysteries that needs to be solved. I expected it to be named for some ship captain or crew mate. If not that, then certainly a white man, probably a pioneer or politician, or both. So, wading through numerous Google results for modern country singer Dwight Yoakam, I finally chanced upon a couple fascinating stories tracing the Yoakam surname in Coos County. And, to my surprise these stories enobled no man, but spoke to the perseverance of two generations of Yoakam women. How refreshing!Tragedy of the Burning TreeIn 1855 newly arrived settlers Eliza and John Yoakam lost five daughters to a tree aflame falling on their home, as detailed in this 1906 obituary:In 1855 they moved to a homestead about six miles from Empire City on [what] is now known as the Cammon wagon road.It was here that the awful tragedy of Mrs. Yoakam's life occurred—one that would only be possible in pioneer days, when a large, burning tree fell with terrific force upon their little cabin, shattering it and instantly killing five of their children, one a babe in its mother's arms. The accident happened in the evening, when the children were nearly all asleep, and when later the anguished parents searched amid the ruins of their little ones, they found four of them dead where they had slept. Two little boys, Jasper and George, aged 7 and 5 years, still missing, were found in their little trundle bed alive and fast asleep. The branches of the tree had fallen in such a manner as to shield their little bed, and the commotion had not even awakened them. The scene of the accident is known as Yoakam's Hill, and stately firs, spreading cedars the graceful rhododendron now grow in wild luxuriance where these hapless children lie in their dreamless sleep.The homestead was abandoned, as the poor mother could find no happiness there, and after a few sad months in Empire City and Eastport, they moved to the Coquiller River, where they remained until 1867, when they bought the William Jackson farm on South Coos River, and literally hewed for themselves a home out of the wilderness. In this home probably the happiest years of Mrs. Yoakam s life were spent; other children came to her almost empty arms, and listening to their happy laughter, her old sorrow gradually faded away. For many years “Yoakam's” was synonymous with good cheer and hospitality.Mrs. Yoakam was a woman of rare type, well fitted by nature for the struggles and adventures of pioneer life. Mr. Yoakam died in 1876, and for many years his widow successfully managed the farm, failing health finally compelling her to leave it. She was the mother of twelve children, five of whom survive her. (Coquille Herald)One of her children, George Yoakam, died in 1901, gored by a neighbor's wayward bull, leaving his wife Sarah, three daughters and a son. Taking a page from her mother-in-law, Sarah successfully managed the family farm in the wake of the tragedy.Sarah Yoakam Forges AheadThat a woman can conduct a dairy farm most successfully is nicely proved in the case of Mrs. Sarah Yoakam of Coos county, near Marshfield, Ore., whose husband, a prominent rancher, was killed by a vicious bull some thirteen years ago. In the years Intervening since she and her two daughters have conducted and developed the dairy business in which her husband was engaged. For a good share of the time they have done all the work on the farm, including the care of the dairy herd and the securing of the farm crops. (Union Star)Indeed Sarah not only succeeded on her farm, but went on to become a leader in the trade.Sarah Yoakam, who ran her husband's Coos County dairy upon his death seven years earlier, was voted the first female vice-president of the Oregon State Dairyman's Association. The next year she became the superintendent of the Dairy Department of the Oregon State Fair. (cooshistory.org)Now, how exactly this headland came to be known as Yoakam Point is not crystal clear. The acreage was one of 19 locations purchased by the state in 1968. The state wayside simply carried over the accepted name. Oregon Geographic Names suggests the name was in use for “many decades” prior to 1952, attributed to the pioneer family:For many decades this name has been applied to a small promontory about a mile west of Coos Head just south of the entrance to Coos Bay. It commemorates a family well known in the history of the county. (Oregon Geographic Names, 1952)Mussel ReefI think it's important to include the settler prehistory here. Before the name Yoakam Point gained acceptance among the settlers of the area, it seems like “Mussel Reef” was in play. The area was inhabited by the Coos people from time immemorial. This particular shoreline was an abundant intertidal zone rich with mollusks and crustaceans used for both food and regalia. Sites of archeological importance are documented here. A half mile west of Yoakam Point, sits Chiefs Island, on which stands the defunct Cape Arago Lighthouse. The island was repatriated to the Confederated Tribes of Coos, Lower Umpqua and Siuslaw in 2013. That site contains a very large, deep midden, indicating an extended presence on the island. It is closed to the public.Coos Bay was a distinctly rich cultural area prior to Euro-American settlement. it brought together five tribes speaking as many different languages (or dialects) within short distance each other: Miluk (Coos), Hanis (Coos), Quuiich (Lower Umpqua) Nasomah dialect (Lower Coquille) and Athabaskan (Upper Coquille).Noting the abundant natural resources and prospects for establishing a port, early settlers converged on the peninsula in the center of the bay, incorporating the town of Empire City next to a Miluk village, about 10 miles inland from Yoakam Point. Empire City is today the Empire neighborhood of the city of Coos Bay. Within just a few years of the first settlers arriving, the tribes were forcibly removed and eventually relocated to the Siletz Agency of the Coast Reservation. Like most treaties in the west, promises were broken when the US congress systematically failed to ratify them. Thanks for reading and listening. I'm grateful for your interest.

If you go anywhere used games are sold, you'll see shelves choked with DS and Wii shovelware. And this week's game, Wonder World Amusement Park, is emblematic of everything about that phenomenon. But of course, Gary picked this game to have an excuse to talk about his trip to the Oregon State Fair, which featured a real life reenactment of The Zoo Race.

On this episode: Kim Stark shows us what's going around Oregon. A Pacific Island event in Eugene, The Oregon State Fair and Bill Lundun has these stories: 1. Dead, burned trees are a problem. 2. Politicians say, “hey let's make law-abiding citizen's criminals!” 3. Do as I say, not as I do, because we're the Government and we can tell you what to do. 4. When people say they want more gun control, what does THAT really mean? And Compton Family Wines is ready for a big tasting this weekend. Tabitha joins us live.

The Oregon State Fair opened on Friday, the same day the statewide outdoor mask mandate took effect. While the fair is requiring vendors and security staff to mask up, it's unclear exactly how the mandate is being enforced for the general public. Marion County, where the state fair takes place, reported 528 new COVID cases over the weekend. We hear from Marion County Commissioner and Chair of the Oregon State Fair Council Board Kevin Cameron.

REIMAGINEREBOOT: Creating a New NormalSeptember 13, 2020 Well, it’s back to school season! But…wait…The calendar says September, but did we ever really finish the last school year? Where did the last six months go? There was no spring soccer or summer baseball, no vacations to Disneyland or 4th of July fireworks, no Summer Olympics or Oregon State Fair. How can it possibly be September??I’ve grown to hate the words “social distancing.” I’m tired of the global pandemic. If I never hear the words “new normal” again, it will be too soon. If we’re all in this together, why are we so far apart? I’m done with the constant bickering about masks. And how many times can I rethink the way I’ve always done things and try to figure out a new way? I liked the old way! I want the old normal back! The only good news in this whole unprecedented, global pandemic is that we really are in this all together, because none of us can escape!I would bet you’re a lot like me. You can feel our culture sinking. Six months ago, we all pushed “pause” thinking we’d just have to get through this for a month. Then two months. And now, we’re six months in, with no end in sight. Friends, we’re never going to get back to “normal” as we knew it. We’ve entered an alternate reality. It’s kind of like someone downloaded an upgrade, like the ones tech companies force on your computer or phone. Once those files are installed, you always have to reboot and then, figure out how to do the old things in a new way.We’re launching a new sermon series this next week called “Reboot.” Over the next eight weeks, we’ll be taking an honest look at what it means for all of us to move forward in this new reality, whether we like it or not. God’s Word tells us that, “…as we know Jesus better, his divine power gives us everything we need"…did you catch that?..."EVERYTHING we need, for living a godly life.” Even in a coronavirus culture.

Family MattersUncommon Sense: Wisdom from Proverbs August 19, 2018   Our summer days are slipping away. August is half gone and Salem’s end-of-summer celebration, The Oregon State Fair, is coming up fast! That means our summer sermon series, Uncommon Sense, has just a few weeks left as well. We’ve learned so much from the Book of Proverbs over the last couple months. If you’ve missed out on any of the goodness we’ve been gleaning, consider catching up by listening to the podcasts posted on the Dayspring website or on iTunes. This week we’ll be taking a look at what Solomon has to say about parenting. And whether you are in the throes of chasing toddlers or facing the challenges of competing with a cell phone for your teen's attention, there is a lot we can learn from the wisdom writer. Perhaps your kids are all grown up, and you’re an empty nester. Or maybe you are still waiting, aching for the opportunity to be a parent. No matter where you are in your own personal journey, there is wisdom in the Book of Proverbs to be found for all of us on how to shape the next generation.-Pastor Chris
