To the Eagle: Just as many other months are assigned a cause – April is Sexual Assault Awareness and Prevention Month. Yes, this is a difficult subject to talk about, I know.

Ellen Urbani, a Portland author, came to Cathlamet last Friday to talk to a local book club about her novel, Landfall, which tells the story of two families in New Orleans struck by tragedy in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina. She took a few moments to set the scene of the city and the storm. "Katrina was coming toward New Orleans," Urbani said.
