Applegate River Lodge
Applegate, OR
According to Moonalice legend, the town of Applegate was named for Lindsay Applegate, who was the first to arrive there. He traveled in the company of two men: Jesse Applegate and Charles Applegate. History claims the Applegates were brothers. That was probably true. But what if they weren’t?
Happy Birthday to Moses Horowitz!!! Mean ol' brother Moe tormented the beloved Curly, but always brought out the best in him. According to Moonalice legend, the Applegate River has special powers. Apparently if you sit it in long enough, your skin will bunch up like a prune.
According to Moonalice legend, there is a Moonalice Poetry museum near Elko, NV. The museum had only one poem. Until now. Hardwood and I discovered two versions of a Moonalice poem right here at the Applegate Lodge. Here’s how it goes:
There once was a drummer named Smoke,
Who played drums like a demon on coke,
He hit like Ali,
At a hundred and three,
Knocking out hits with each stroke
There once a drummer named Smokey
Played like a demon who’s cokey
Tho a genius at riddles
And advanced para diddles
Still the Feds put his ass in the pokey
According to Moonalice legend, today is Juneteenth, a holiday that celebrates the liberation of slaves in Texas in 1865. The white guys were able to hide the news of the Emancipation Proclamation for over two years. We called Twitter to find out how this could have happened. Apparently Twitter was down throughout the 19th and 20th centuries due to planned pre-maintenance.
