When: Fri, May 25 8:00 pm – 9:00 pm Description: Cowboy/Western Music Local Cowboy Musician Bob Connolly returns to Cebu! Bob Connolly calls the little town of White Salmon, Washington his home. He resides on his 23-acre gentleman’s ranch just outside of town. Bob has always been a fan and a bit of a historian of the turbulent times that were the American West. Sometimes in the still night air one can hear the sound of Bob’s music drifting from the swinging doors of his authentic looking replica of the Wild West saloon he has constructed on his ranch. Not quite comfortable with these modern times, Bob feels he was probably born a good hundred or more years too late. Ask anyone who knows him and they will tell you that he is truly a cowboy in his heart. Alisha Whitman Art Exhibit

Event: Author Event- Phillip Margolin “Capitol Murder”
When: Fri, Jun 1 5:00 pm – 7:00 pm Description: Waucoma Bookstore is hosting author Phillip Margolin for an author reception on Friday, June 1st from 5:00 to 8:00pm at the bookstore (212 Oak St., Hood River). Margolin will be discussion his new book Capitol Murder. Deadly intrigue, breathtaking twists, and exhilarating suspense await in the third book of Phillip Margolin’s New York Times bestselling Washington Trilogy. Hot on the heels of Supreme Justice, Margolin delivers another heart-pounding thriller featuring private investigator Dana Cutler and lawyer Brad Miller, who are forced by a terrorist attack on a football stadium—and by the escape of Executive Privilege’s convicted serial killer Clarence Little—to follow a sinister trail of lies, treachery, and betrayal into an unexpected new arena: the U.S. Congress. Private investigator Dana Cutler and attorney Brad Miller have overcome more than a few daunting challenges and powerful enemies to see justice done. Against tremendous odds, they successfully unmasked an American president’s involvement in a chain of murders. They also saved the life of a Supreme Court justice while foiling a conspiracy by rogue members of the CIA to fix a case headed for the court. Now wicked threats old and new are about to bring them together once again. Convicted serial killer Clarence Little has escaped from death row in Oregon, and Brad receives threatening messages in D.C., where he is working for Senator Jack Carson, a high-ranking member of the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence. A dead body, murdered according to Little’s M.O., is found in the senator’s Georgetown home, and Carson has disappeared. While Dana is in Oregon digging into Carson’s shady background, a terrorist cell is poised to destroy a packed professional football stadium in one of the biggest attacks on American soil. As the senator’s personal life begins to dovetail with the cell’s evil plan, Brad and Dana will risk it all again to uncover the truth and save their country. Phillip Margolin proves once more that he is a true master of suspense, delivering another high-octane thriller set in Washington’s legendary corridors of power. Capitol Murder’s breathtaking pace and electrifying twists will have old fans and newcomers racing to the final, stunning page. Event: First Friday Art Walk in Hood River
