Seldovia’s Tidepool Cafe makes Headlines in Seattle
by Jenny Chissus
Sometimes, we get a little spoiled. We take for granted many of the wonderful aspects of life in Seldovia. The little things. Tranquil walks on a beach with only a yellow lab as companion, lazy Sunday afternoons picking blueberries and salmonberries by the side of the road with your husband, witnessing the magic of chainsaw art in an up close and personal (and noisy) way – or the guaranteed wonderful flavors that we enjoy at our local eatery – the Tidepool Cafe!
It is a reminder to see a review from a visitor – and the inspiration to recreate a special meal at home – once gone from our waterfront community. The tastes, the beauty and the experience of Seldovia do stay with you when you leave our city!
We are the lucky ones – we live here! Thanks Sara for providing such a great and constant source of culinary pleasure for visitors and locals alike!

Artists Workshops at SBE this Week
by Judy Standafer
Neal Nichols Jr will be at the school presenting to the students on Monday and Tuesday and possibly Wednesday morning. He is willing to show parents and community about his art on Monday night 7:00 pm at the school. I have included two samples of his art.
His website is: http://www.geographygameshow.
The Geography Gameshow is an interactive event that centers on the rendering of maps from around the world, entirely from memory. Students participate by guessing the locations of countries, states, geographical features and regions, competing to receive prizes for correctly doing so. The educational intent of this presentation is to teach comprehension and to inspire the importance of learning.
Tusty Delayed Return Continues
Received by the City of Seldovia
Dear Elected Official,
Unfortunately, completion of the Tustumena refurbishment project has suffered another setback. On Friday ultrasonic thickness testing of repairs to the hull identified three areas where the improper thickness of steel plate was installed. Seward Ship and Drydock has the appropriate thickness plate in stock and replacement of the undersized material began over the weekend. This work will push back the launch date to approximately September 20. Based on this new information, the Tustumena will not be in service until mid-October and therefore the Kennicott will remain in southwest Alaska for the first part of October to provide service to Kodiak. The October schedule will be revised accordingly.
