Every garden needs a cherry-tomato plant. The sweet, ripe fruit are perfect for summer salads, an important ingredient in some hors d'oeuvres and a great, quick snack off the vine. The fruit come in a variety of shapes and colors, from yellow and orange to red and purple, and each gardener seems to have that one cherry tomato to rave about.

SHADY COVE — From Jason Denton’s position atop the Rogue River boat ramp at Shady Cove, the Jackson County sheriff’s marine deputy could tell one of the paddlers in an open raft clearly wasn’t sober. Denton approached the man, who turned out to be a South Dakotan who wasn’t shy about admitting he was impaired and happy to declare that he hadn’t been drinking. “This kid was laughing, ‘I’m not drunk. I’m stoned on good Oregon weed and it’s legal,’” Denton says. When the tourist received his ticket

Southern Oregon's Wild Rivers Coast is a gem. Crowds are rare, and pristine reaches of beach, like those along the Samuel Boardman State Scenic Corridor, are within a short walk of the highway. But the beach isn't the most magical part of the Wild Rivers Coast — it's the wild rivers. And the Elk River is one of them. The Elk falls out of the Copper Salmon and Grassy Knob wilderness areas and winds its way 25 miles before spilling into the Pacific near Port Orford. The Elk's waters are cool

After forming in 1996, the three members of Dispatch — multi-instrumentalists Chad Stokes, Brad Corrigan and Peter Francis — made Dispatch a regular on the national music scene, self-releasing four albums and touring. Then, in 2002, Dispatch disbanded. What happened next is an interesting story in rock music. Feeling they hadn’t given fans a proper goodbye, Dispatch scheduled a farewell sho
