Thirty People Strong at this week’s protest in Nehalem. Yes, we got wet, but very few people cared. Same fantastic response from people driving and walking by. If you didn’t have a chance to drive by and see all the signs let me share with you about each one:
Human-Kind Be Both
Stand in Solidarity with those without your Privileges
How much money is the Trump Family making off all this?
Miller is a traitor-an Evil Architect
People HAVE the POWER
Expose Epstein
Congress-DO YOUR JOB
86-47
Expose Congress-DO YOUR JOB
WHY are we paying (you and me) for Billionaires to fly to China?
NO TO ICE
Pretti GOOD-ICE OUT
NO KINGS
SHAME
IMPEACH TRUMP
Why are we letting Trump make Statues with our money?
Say no to Spending Taxpayer money to build Ballroom
IF YOU CAN IDENTIFY WITH ANY OF THE ABOVE, we hope you will join us this coming Saturday in Nehalem, May 23, from noon to 2 PM.
Again, we had some special guests joining us-and of course I can’t find the paperwork on this, but I will try to get it right. Two ladies from the mid-west who had gone on an Alaskan cruise together. They had gotten off the boat in Seattle and were driving down the coast. The entire trip, both in the car and on the boat, they wore their red knitted hats to show their disapproval of our government. When they saw us protesting they stopped their car and joined us. Another couple from Arizona were driving to Alaska and when they saw us protesting they stopped their camper truck and joined us. They travel with their own signs to protest and stop to help when they get a chance. There was another couple, but I am sorry to say I do not remember their story. Am sure someone will jog my memory this next week.
On another note, I was so pleased to see the results of the Emergency Volunteer Corps of Nehalem Bay food drive. There were 91 participants and 29 volunteers. They gathered 1,199 pounds of food which I believe equals about 1,100 cans of food plus, and…$8,000 in donations to split between the North County Food Bank in Wheeler and the Nehalem Bay Community Services in Nehalem. WOW!!! What a great community. If you are able, give yourselves and the EVCNB a huge pat on the back!
We need to keep up this good work. See you in Nehalem next Saturday, May 23, from noon to 2 PM. We are a long ways out, but it looks like a pretty nice day at this point.
Best,
Patty
