A big change in this issue of ZORCH; the pages have
been numbered. Not correctly, but numbered!
In the last issue of ZORCH we had a great, make
that super great, contest. Over 200 letters from
ZORCHERers everywhere were trying to find the
five errors. Most everybody found at least five
errors plus some other ones, but penmanship
was the deciding factor in choosing a winner.
Penmanship is important as is attendance. The
contest was so great we’re going to do it again.
See last month’s February 2012 issue for rules
and regulations. And remember, penmanship is
important
The winner of the contest was Jeryl Burrows
of Riverbank who found all five errors plus
another five and had the best penmanship. Jeryl
received: the new ZORCH coffee cup, a ZORCH
sweatshirt, a pair of ZORCH sunglasses, a ZORCH
bumper sticker, a ZORCH baseball cap and an
autographed picture of the Mayor of J Street,
Harley. Congratulations Jeryl and everyone who
entered.
Also in this edition of ZORCH, is the very
first ZORCH centerfold. Is ZORCH pushing the
envelope? Whatever that means…….maybe, maybe
not. The young lady is Angela. Enjoy!
Another also in this edition is your entry for
ZORCH’s most valuable person award. Check out
page 29 for more details. Enter anyone you think
should be ZORCH’s most valuable person of the
year; a person, a mascot, a band, anything you
might think should be the winner. No politicians
please!
Subscribers: We want to thank the many
ZORCHers who have subscribed to ZORCH. It’s
really hard to believe ZORCHers would send
money for something that is free. Subscribing
to ZORCH does prove you’ve got poor judgment,
but thanks anyway.
As always, some great stuff in this, the
numbered issue of ZORCH. Keep reading ZORCH,
but don’t tell anyone you are doing it. ZORCH
doesn’t want to be successful and that might
mean forgetting our mission. The ZORCH mission
is, in case you forgot, ‘Be unprepared!’
It’s Phil’s
for fish!
After a fantastic day of sailing on Monterey Bay with Captain Ron and returning to the Moss Landing
Harbor, sailboat passengers will be greeted by the scrumptious aromas coming from the upwind
Phil’s Fish Market and Eatery. Captain Ron’s sailboat, “Latitude Adjustment”, is berthed directly
downwind from the very unique and extremely popular Phil’s.
As you enter Phil’s, the first thing you are greeted with is the huge selection of fresh fish, all on
display and packed in mounds of finely crushed ice. If you’re coming to Phil’s for fresh fish, you’ll
find fish that were probably enjoying a nice day swimming in one of the deepest ocean bays in the
world just hours earlier. Now that’s fresh! Salmon, rock fish, albacore, Pacific red snapper, halibut,
ling cod, California sea bass, Dungeness crab, and flounder, these are just some of the fresh fish
available from the local fishing boats that use Moss Landing as their home port. But it doesn’t stop
there...flown in fresh, customers can also choose from trout, cat fish, yellow tail tuna, Mahi-Mahi,
Tombo albacore, and yellow fin tuna. If you want shell fish, there’s a huge selection of fresh crab,
prawns, mussels, lobsters, shrimp, scallops, clams and oysters. The huge varieties of fish are of
course, subject to fishing seasons and weather conditions. Phil’s selection of daily catches would
probably beat anything you could find even at San Francisco’s famed Fisherman’s Wharf. But this
isn’t the real treat you’ll enjoy upon discovering Phil’s Fish Market...it’s the other part of their name
that will have you telling all your friends of your new find...The Eatery.
The Eatery is stand in line (sometimes stretching out the front door), place your order and find a
vacant table. The large menu is on a large overhead chalk board...chalk, because the menu is ever
changing...sometimes those swimming fish just don’t take the bait for an invitation to dinner. When
your order is ready, waitresses will serve the food. An order of fish ‘n chips will have three nice pieces
of battered dipped halibut or cod served with a basket of fries and coleslaw or you can enjoy the
chips with shrimp, scallops, oysters or squid at a price around $15. You can also order just about
any type of fish from the char broiler or have it breaded and grilled...you can even find most of the
fish smoked.
Phil’s house specials include salmon or halibut Marsala, spicy jumbo prawns, Phil’s stir-fried calamari,
blackened sea scallops, Sicilian salmon, or halibut tacos. Phil’s pièce de résistance is their famous
Cioppino which you can order in a bowl or in a special hollowed out bread bowl. I’m getting hungry!
They’ll even let you bring in your own pot and they will then cook you a great meal; better allow
about an hour for this custom order. They also feature Cioppino in a bucket, in which they supply
the bucket. It’s ready to go and can be ordered fresh or frozen. Their very special Cioppino is made
with clams, mussels, white fish, calamari, Dungeness crab, prawns and scallops. Save the bucket
for your return visit and you will save $5 on your next order. You can also enjoy several dishes with
various pastas and for steak eaters, they serve delicious sirloin steaks.
Oh, and I forgot to mention the best part of the downwind aromas we enjoy from our returning
sailboat cruises...the clam chowder prepared both as New England style, which is the white chowder,
or Manhattan style, which is the red chowder (my favorite).
Phil’s showcases Bluegrass Music Monday through Thursdays nights with a different band featured
each night. You can enjoy your dinner either inside or out in the enclosed patio. The atmosphere is
always that of a party with patrons sharing their own story of how they discovered Phil’s Fish Market
and Eatery.
I think now you’ll probably understand why there is usually a line out the door seven days a week...
The Eatery is one of a kind. Located just about half way between the Santa Cruz area and the
Monterey Peninsula, at the Moss Landing Harbor, it’s worth the short drive for everyone visiting
anywhere in the Monterey Bay Region.
NORTHWOOD GOLF CLUB
It’s Just a Drive Away
By Pat Kelley
If you’re like me there are those times when you just want to get away. You’re tired of thinking about the next app to download to your phone, work hasn’t gotten any easier and you’ve
just seen your daughter’s latest tattoo posted on Facebook. That’s when it sounds like a golf
getaway to me. Here’s one of my favorites and I think it will be one of yours as well.
While many of us may never have the opportunity to stroll the fairways of Augusta National,
(home of The Masters Golf Tournament, if you didn’t know) we do have many a chance to
experience the work of its architect, Alister MacKenzie, right here in California. In 1928, after
designing Cypress Point in Pebble Beach and before heading to Augusta, Georgia, Dr. MacKenzie made a stop along the Russian River in Northern California in the town of Monte Rio. The
first to think that a golf course could be built on seventy acres of redwoods across the Russian
River from the world famed Bohemian Club was Bohemian Club member, Jack Neville. He and
Douglas Grant had designed Pebble Beach Golf Links in 1919 and he was a great player in
his own right. He was California State Amateur Champion in 1912-’13, ’19, ’22, and ‘29 and
a member of the Walker Cup team in 1923. In 1925 he took his idea to Claude Milleresch,
owner of the seventy acres who consented that the land be developed for a golf course. Mr.
Neville then contacted Dr. MacKenzie. The result was a majestic par 36, nine hole golf course
that we still enjoy today. In fact, Golf World Magazine recently ranked Northwood Golf Club
as the third best nine hole golf course in America.
I first discovered Northwood when some friends from college moved to the north Sonoma
coast and I traveled there for a visit. As I was making my way meandering on Highway
116 through the redwoods between Highway 101 and the coastal Highway 1, I was completely caught up with the beauty of the area. Sunlight coming out of clear blue skies,
filtering through majestic redwoods to ultimately sparkle on the flowing waters of the
Russian River. When I noticed a golf course had been sculpted into this natural beauty I
was hooked. It’s funny how some things or places in life remain constant, almost without
change. Northwood Golf Club is one of those places for me. It has been there before and
after family with wife and kids, through countless years of travel and media, and the ebb
and flow of life in general. Although I don’t get there as often as I would like it is comforting to know that Northwood Golf Club is just a drive away.
You’ll find Northwood Golf Club at 19400 Highway 116 in Monte Rio California 95462.
You can also call 707-865-1116 for more information and directions or go online at www.
northwoodgolf.com.

Silverado
During the winter months our valley gets looking a little gray everywhere. The
valley gloom took me back to a fall trip we made to Silverado Resort. Fall in the
Napa Valley is as close as we come to New England Autumn. The grapes are
ripening and a cacophony of color swirls everywhere.
We were there for an awards ceremony for my father, among others. The event
was hosted by world-famous golfer and broadcaster Johnny Miller. Miller has a
history at Silverado. For many years John and his wife Linda raised their family
beyond the pond fronting the 11th hole on the North Course at Silverado. Silverado fell on hard times in our economy, so Johnny and Linda bought the venerable resort with the goal to restore the resort glory days of the past.
Our day dawned crisp and clear as we headed out for adventure. There is much
to do in Napa, so we loaded up our bicycles and set out for Silverado Trail. An
18 mile loop starts south on Atlas Peak Rd, west on Trancas then north on Silverado Trail. We pedaled, pick-nicked and perused our way around some of the
most beautiful real estate in California. Up to Calistoga and the mud baths and
back through Napa and to Silverado Resort. What a glorious day. We passed
more than 30 wineries and acres of vineyards. It was a nice bit of exercise
and a great family outing. Mark it down for a future outing that has something
to offer everyone.

2012: Healthy Giants,
and AA Ball in Oakland
The World Series honeymoon is over for the San Francisco Giants. They are no longer the defending world champions. Gone is Cody Ross. Gone is Andres Torres. Gone is Jonathon Sanchez. This
season’s story in San Francisco is the return of catcher Buster Posey as well as the health of Freddie Sanchez and Brian Wilson. Across the Bay in Oakland the story is if whether or not they will
put a tarp in the lower level seating too.
Buster Posey returns to the Giants lineup in 2012. Hopefully for Giants fans, he can return to the
stud that he is. The Giants added speed in the outfield with Melky Cabrera in a trade from the Royals for Jonathon Sanchez, and Angel Pagan from the Mets for Andres Torres and Ramon Ramirez.
The speed will help protect triples ally and they can steal bases. The Giants once again will have to
manufacture runs and stealing bases will be critical as they still have very little power. Outside of
Pablo Sandoval, there is not a 20 home run guy out there; maybe Posey and Huff, if he can return
to his 2010 numbers. So the outfield is pretty much set with Pagan, Cabrera, and Nate Schierholtz.
The position to watch is at first base to see if it will be Brandon Belt or Aubrey Huff. Another critical factor for success will be the play of shortstop, Brandon Crawford. We know he can field, but he
needs hits. Any production would be beneficial. Crawford will most likely sit against left-handers in
favor of newly acquired Ryan Theriot.
The starting pitching is there with Cain, Lincecum, Vogelsong, and Bumgarner. Barry Zito will be
the number 5 guy, and well, Zito is Zito. Most of the reliever corp is still intact with Brian Wilson,
Romo, Casilla, Affeldt, and Lopez. The Giants will be contending for the NL West title, no doubt.
Maybe the Diamondbacks run was a fluke and if so, it is wide open.
The only award the Oakland A’s will be getting in 2012 is a possible Oscar award for Brad Pitt and
his portrayal of Billy Beane in “Moneyball”. The theme this year in Oakland is: sell off all good players and restock it with the AAA Sacramento River Cats and a retread in Manny Ramirez, see the
attendance dwindle to a few friends and relatives, and cry that “we can’t compete, so move us to
San Jose”. Beane minimizes the payroll and hopefully secures a new stadium in the South Bay with
young prospects so that in 2-3 years, they can then afford the luxuries of a real major league ball
club. Here is the potential lineup in Oakland: Crisp, Reddick, Sizemore, Pennington, Weeks, Barton, Seth Smith, and Suzuki. Throw in a Cowgill and a Carter and even a “high priced” free agent
from Cuba named, Yoenis Cespedes. Oh, and don’t forget Manny Ramirez as Beane and his annual
signing of a onetime star in hopes he can produce. Of course, that is after Manny sits out the first
50 games for a drug suspension assuming he makes the squad.
Gone are Gio Gonzalez, Trevor Cahill, and Andrew Bailey. Brandon McCarthy is now the A’s number
one followed by Bartolo Colon and some guys named Peacock, Parker, Milone and possibly healthy
Dallas Braden and Brett Anderson. This team will struggle,

One of the most overlooked day trips from Modesto is the historic gold country town of
Sutter Creek. Just a few miles north of Jackson on Highway 49, this attractive former
mining town is transforming into a hotbed of art galleries, antique shops, restaurants,
and lodging. In addition, its scenic Amador county surroundings offer variety of ventures, including museums, agri-tourism, and wineries to name a few.
There are enough dining choices in Sutter Creek to please most tastes, but I’m always
drawn to Susan’s Place, set a stone’s throw off Main Street (Highway 49). The freshly
prepared Mediterranean/California cuisine is great while indoor seating is intimate and
well decorated. But for many, myself included, the real draw is dining in the garden
courtyard, with lush greenery, garden art, fountains, and relaxing music. Unfortunately, it is only open Thursday through Sunday.
A must stop is the Sutter Creek Ice Cream Emporium, featuring old-fashioned ice
cream concoctions, a lunch menu, candy, fresh fudge, novel gifts, and live ragtime piano. Entering its 15th season, the Main Street Theatre Works has been nominated for,
and won, several regional stage awards. Nearby in an 1860 era Victorian house, the
Bella Grace Vineyards Wine Tasting Room is open Friday-Monday for wine tastings and
Friday and Saturday evenings for live entertainment. For a novelty, stop by the Three
Dog Bakery, specializing in baked goods and other unusually gifts for your pet.
For those interested in more than one day, Sutter Creek’s B&Bs stand out. Built before
the Civil War, the Sutter Creek Inn has been open for more than forty years. The New
England-style home has 17 rooms and cottages, nine patios, hammocks, and fireplaces, with swinging beds in four bedrooms. In addition, the gardens and hidden alcoves
offer a relaxed get away.
The Craftsman-style Eureka Street Inn was voted best in Gold Country Lodging by “Inn
Traveler Magazine.” Not to be outdone, the Foxes Inn was named “The Gold Country’s
Most Elegant Inn” by Motorland Magazine.
Sutter Creek is set in a beautiful region, particularly in spring, with the winding roads
nestled in green rolling hills, accented by a variety of wildflowers. In summer, the hills
turn golden with wild poppies providing more color.
Activities are plentiful in the region. There are several cave and mine tours, including the Black Chasm Cavern, California Cavern State Park, and the Moaning Caverns.
There are hiking and biking trails, as well museums and galleries.
A 30-minute drive to the east in the town of Volcano is the picturesque Daffodil Hill,
which has been owned by the same family since 1887. Each spring, from mid-March
through mid-April, the 4-acre farm explodes with color, as thousands of blooms attract
visitors from around the country. The number of varieties has increased over the years
to more than 300 today, and more than 300,000 bulbs, as well as several other varieties of bulbs and flowers. It is wise to call the recorded phone message at (209) 2967048 to ensure Daffodil Hill is open that day.
Also in Volcano is the lesser-known and smaller, Stone’s Iris Garden. With more than
600 varieties of irises, it opens in early May to the public, but pre-trip phone calls are
encouraged, (209) 296-4592. While in Volcano, check out the Volcano Theater Company, in production since 1974, featuring indoor and outdoor stages.
A must do for wine lovers is the Shenandoah Valley, a scenic half hour drive to the
north of Sutter Creek. The valley is generating increasing recognition as fertile wine
country, with dozens of wineries, regularly winning awards over better-known regions
such as Napa Valley.
In addition to its wineries, the Shenandoah Valley has other options, like the Amador
Flower Farm & Nursery, offering visitors acres of flowers, a picnic area, and a gift store.
The Sutter Creek region hosts an abundance of events throughout the year. On March
10th, 2012 Sutter Creek will host its 1st Annual Mardi Gras Party & Cajun Cook-Off.
Gary Gervasoni, at the smooth age of 73, was born in Patterson and moved to Modesto at age
21 where he began as a bartender. Gary and his wife Myrna raised two children while building
their successful restaurant establishment. Gary has done a bit of everything including cooking, dishes, and bussing tables as he was born into the restaurant business, working at SnoWhite Drive-In as well as his parent’s place, The Ranch. One of his fave pastimes is taking out
his 42’ trawler boat in the SF bay while enjoying a vodka cocktail. He has many close friends
that also enjoy going to major SF sporting events. Yes, Gary is a Giants fan (Let’s Go Oakland!!!), but he has attended all of the A’s World Series games in the past. Gary also travels
to his cabin for some R&R in the mountains near Pinecrest. I asked Gary where he sees himself in 5 years and he answered, “If I’m not here, I don’t know where the hell I’ll be!” Love
that!
Wayne Kimura, at the loose age of 55, has been the head chef since Oct. 2009. He is single
and a golfer. Wayne is also a sports enthusiast interested in Nascar, basketball, and football.
If Wayne wasn’t a chef he could see himself a race car driver as he raced go-carts 30+ years
ago. When Wayne isn’t swamped in the kitchen he likes socializing with the patrons, also
known as friends, sampling on a Corona or a Patron tequila. His fave cut of steak would be a
meaty 20oz. rib eye. He never attended culinary school but he is great at duplicating the previous chef’s original recipes still on the menu. Chef Pierre was with Gervasoni’s for 20+ years
before his passing. Tony Ratley is the line cook working in sync with Wayne. Tony has created
an original, mango salsa over swordfish, for the menu that gets regular rave reviews.
Gervasoni’s has a lunch and dinner menu. The lunch menu serves many farmers and the portions are nothing shy of huge! The dinner menu is all family-style including bread, soup, and
salad. On Wed. and Thurs. it’s Basque Night. Along with the entrée choices such as steak, lobster, duck, lamb and more, you will be served: bread, soup, salad, veggies, macaroni salad,
lamb stew, pigs feet, french fries, and beans. I’m thinking elastic waistband pants would be a
good choice as I’d have to try it all! For my dining experience I was treated to the Chicken Jerusalem; tender chicken breast pieces, artichoke hearts, and a savory cream wine sauce with
mixed veggies and pilaf rice. Wonderful!

Milliaire Winery in Murphys, California is owned by Liz and Steve Millier. Steve
Millier received a degree in enology and viticulture from Fresno State in 1975. His
first job out of school was as winemaker for the David Bruce Winery in the Santa Cruz
Mountains.
Liz begain working with Steve in 1976 and they have been a winemaking partnership since then. To Steve’s technical and artistic skills, Liz brings marketing and
sales. Steve explains, “We balance each other; each partner brings their energy and
talent to the winery. We discuss every detail of winemaking and share all the ups and
downs of the creative process.”
Milliaire Winery is committed to small lots of wine produced exclusively from
Sierra Foothill vineyards. The first vintage consisted of three barrels of Cabernet Sauvignon grapes from Frank Alviso of Clockspring Vineyards in Amador County. The first
vintages were cellared in the basement of their home and at Bob Bliss’s winery, Chispa Cellars. Today, annual production is usually around 2,500 cases.
In 1990, the winery moved to Main Street in Murphys. They are located in
what was originally an old Flying A gas station. The Milliaire’s would love to have an
old logo or sign, if anyone has an extra. The winery building has been affectionately
dubbed, the “Roadside Chateau.” It is actually ideally suited for a winery; high ceilings, cement floors and those big bay doors. Murphys Creek flows behind the winery
and provides natural air conditioning.
Milliaire means milestone in French. In 1983 when the winery was started, Steve
was winemaker at Stevenot and also made wine for at least nine different other local
entities. Since it seemed like Steve was everybody’s winemaker, it did not seem right
to put his name on just one label. The winery name is pronounced the same as the
family name. “Milliaire”

I just love Cajun food and when my latest, best exgirlfriend, Barbara Jean Jean told me about a new
Cajun restaurant in San Francisco, I got hush puppy
bumps all over. Located at 399 Grove Street near the
Opera House, I found it without getting lost, which is
hard to believe. The first thing that got me excited
was their list of beers - so many I quit counting at
about forty. The ambiance was quite contemporary,
that’s What Barbara Jean Jean called it. I said it had
a unique feel to it. The guy who seated us said the
Boxing Room offers traditional Cajun and Creole
dishes of New Orleans and coastal Louisiana.
Anyway, we tried the deep fried alligator first. It tasted
a lot like chicken with a texture of chewy calamari,
but it washed down good with a beer. For the main
deal, we both had the seafood platter full of oysters,
catfish and shrimp. It was a little pricey, but I will go
back there as I felt it had a lot going on and a beer
list that made me want to learn how to count higher.
A real San Francisco treat!

Health Professionals and
Community Volunteers
Needed for CDA Cares
Free Dental Clinic
Be a part of a community working
together to help Californians in need
When: Thursday, May 17, 2012: Clinic setup from 9:30 a.m. to
5 p.m. (no patients)
Friday, May 18, 2012: Dental clinic from 7 a.m. to 6 p.m.
Saturday, May 19, 2012: Dental clinic from 7 a.m. to 6 p.m.
Sunday, May 20, 2012: Clinic tear down from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m.
(no patients)
Where: Modesto Centre Plaza, 1000 L Street in Modesto
Why: The need is greater than ever – an estimated 30 percent
of Californians experience barriers to care. State budget cuts
eliminated most oral health services for low-income adults
leaving them without access to dental care. In children, dental
disease is a chronic epidemic – more common than asthma and
obesity – affecting nearly two-thirds of California’s children by
the time they reach third grade.
Who Benefits: CDA Cares will offer free dental care to
Californians who have difficulty accessing care, including the
uninsured, underinsured, unemployed and others in need.
Patients will be seen on a first-come, first-served basis.
Services: The main goal of CDA Cares is to relieve pain and
infection. With the help of community volunteers, dental
professionals will donate their time and skills to offer cleanings,
fillings, extractions, oral health education and assistance in
finding a dental home.
Volunteers Needed: Physicians, dental lab technicians, nurses,
pharmacists, translators, dentists, specialists – including oral
surgeons, hygienists, assistants, dental students, and other
members of the community willing to donate their time.
In addition to providing dental services, volunteers are needed
to escort patients and translate, dispense medication, setup
and tear down the clinic, register patients and volunteers,
conduct exit interviews, enter data, provide oral health
education and more.

About CDA Cares
CDA Cares is a collaborative effort among the California Dental
Association (CDA), the CDA Foundation and the national
charitable organization Missions of Mercy. CDA Cares is a new
