"Bubbling up in our own good time-- online."
| Hannah Saubert |
Biography:
Hannah's father is Terry Saubert, recently featured in news reports for rescuing neighbors'
docks during the Siuslaw's flood in December 2005. Hannah says, "It is kind of funny, all these
years on the river, and now my dad Terry is receiving the title 'the river cowboy.' Ironic, only in
that he had a hip replacement and is1/2 titanium.
"About the flooding on the river: It is hard to write about my memories of my dad on the river -
there is a lot of fear surrounding them. The river is beautiful until it is sweeping away the
livestock and lapping at the floorboards. All I can see, till this day, is his back pockets full of
huge, rusty railroad spikes. He hops from the fiberglass bench seat and, balancing on the log,
he bends over with a maul and length of rope - fast as the wind changes, off the log and back
in the boat; shouting directions and drifting fast over submerged tree tops." (Spring 2006)
I am in the process of getting my doctorate in English Literature. I am currently 25 and a
graduate student at Portland State University. My mother actually found the publication and
submitted the writing. My parents still live on the homestead of Hilda and Loyd Saubert. The
farm is not a dairy anymore, but it is all still intact. The river will always possess my soul and
act as the fundamental muse for all I create in life. (Winter 2006)
