Vernonia, Oregon: How a Community Turned an Old Railroad into a National Recreation Trail
4:31

Michael CalhounGUEST
Well, and I echo that, too, because my background is a conservationist, and so I'm able to wear both hats at the same time.

Michael CalhounGUEST
I could, in my current life, I do what I can to protect nature, and then I could celebrate the history of a town and its foundations, but realizing that, you know...

Michael CalhounGUEST
What our town was able to do, at least it embraces that heritage as a logging community.

So is it just that part of the trail? Is that a national historic trail, a national trail, not a historic trail, but is it, or does it connect to others?

Michael CalhounGUEST
For the lighting project that I had worked on, trying to replace the downtown corridor lights, they're currently a 5,000 Kelvin rating.

Michael CalhounGUEST
But what was nice about in the letters was how the amber colored lights made people feel.

Amy OliverGUEST
And so I think this is a great place for Michael to jump in because he knows an awful lot about this subject in terms of conservation and how that research can be applied across the full threshold of human biology.
July 2026: I Miss My Land Line!

Michael CalhounGUEST
I know I'm in a rural area also, and I have a landline, and lots of people that I know in this community have landlines because when the power goes out, we don't have cell service in this area because it's how it's all connected.

Michael CalhounGUEST
Piggybacking on the technology bit, personally, I've always been an advocate of physical media.

Michael CalhounGUEST
And I'm kind of like, gosh, people just don't understand VHS and how great that was.

Michael CalhounGUEST
But what I'm really glad to see is Gen Z is pivoting back towards physical media because it's not just Gen Z, it's this universal technology.

Amy OliverGUEST
So but I'd like to pass it to Michael because I am not the expert on on that type of conservation.
