Tiny: Business Owner Says Appeal of the Small House Has Just Started to Peak Continued from the front page years ago when he decided to enter the tiny house industry. He jumped into the fray with his tiny house company Global Green Concept Designs. He sells the homes through his retail outlets called “Tiny Street of Dreams.” Within the last year, Blair has met with government officials from Kenya through the African Chamber of Commerce of the Pacific Northwest to discuss trade and housing, and he’s started establishing numerous retail franchises across the Unit- ed States. He also has a reality TV show in the works. Blair won’t name which network it’s going to be on, but said the concept is about 24 people who document their efforts to build and furnish their own mobile tiny homes and later compete for $100,000. Although he’s been involved with small homes for five years, he said the momentum is just now starting to build. “We’re just at the very beginning stages of the tiny homes Pete Caster / [email protected] movement,” he said. Rob Blair walks outside one of the tiny houses he has on display alongside Blair's I-5 RV lot in Grand Mound on Thursday morning. Tiny homes are just what the name implies.

Many of the mayors and government employees alike learned that one of area’s beloved “oddities,” Ben Hur, a camel that re- sided near Vader, had died. Ben Hur lived on Bob Oja’s ranch on state Route 506 between Vader and Ryderwood from the time he was six months old, until he died in September of last year. The couple said losing him was difficult. Ben Hur, named for the 1959 Charlton Heston gladiator film of the same name, was about 16 years old when he died from an The Chronicle / File Photo unknown cause.

By Aaron VanTuyl [email protected] The Bearcats made a senior night rally, but it was a bit too late after spotting Prairie 11 runs over the first three innings in a 14-10 nonleague loss in Chehalis on Friday afternoon. W.F. West pounded out 13 hits and had the tying run at the plate in the bottom of the seventh inning, but couldn’t overcome the Falcons’ hot start. “This week we’ve done a pretty good job at the plate and it was nice to see some guys continue that and sting the ball,” W.F. West coach Bryan Bullock said. “But obviously you can’t spot a team 11 runs. That’s pretty tough to overcome.” Brandon Hansen / [email protected] The Falcons strung together a W.F.

Prep Softball Tigers Rough Up Eagles, 12-9 By The Chronicle ELMA — The Tigers bats’ were hot, especially in the later innings in a 12-9 nonleague victory over defending State 1A champion Elma here on Friday. Payton Pocklington led her team with a 4 for 5 showing at the play and three doubles, and Centralia finished with 13 total hits. “It was nice to get a win again,” Centralia coach Candy Hallom said. “We’ve kind of struggled here and there, it was a good win for us.” Centralia jumped out to a 4-0 lead in the first inning and a half, but found itself up just 5-4 heading into the top of the fifth. They answered with a 4-run rally in that frame then put up a 3-run rally in the sixth. Elma didn’t go away quietly, scoring 3 runs in the fifth and 2 in the seventh, but couldn’t defeat its 2A opponents. Leti Ramirez was 3 for 5 and teammates Bryce Gilmore and Madi Crews each had two hits.
