Meet Mr. Bean, United Paws’ Cat of the Week

Submitted By: Website@unitedpaws.org – Click to email about this post
Introducing Mr. Bean, United Paws’ Cat of the Week. Watch out…you will fall in love with this handsome fellow who will surprise you by showing off his language skills and tricks. Meet Mr. Bean. He has won the hearts of his caretakers at United Paws after he was left behind when his devoted owners could no longer keep him. He is a friend to everyone and loves to be the first one at the door to greet a new person. If he really likes you, you can expect a kiss or two. When it is time to leave, he will flop in front of the door to suggest you stay a little longer.

Mr. Bean loves to be where the action is. He wants to be a part of whatever his humans are doing, especially at mealtime. So, watch your plate when you are eating lunch…Mr. Bean will likely be right there to help you eat it! Of course, a gentle correction will let him know that he has to be patient and wait for his own lunch. Not only does Mr. Bean share human eating habits, he also knows simple commands. Tap his bowl; Mr. Bean will come running. Tell him to sit; Mr. Bean will sit!! Fill up his bowl and Mr. Bean will wait for another “tap” before he dives in!! What a show off!!

Mr. Bean loves to play and will do so with whatever colorful or fuzzy objects are around. He especially loves wand toys, fuzzy balls, stuffed mice, and anything he can climb. Mr. Bean is also quite content to entertain himself if his humans are busy, or is as happy just to hang out and watch whatever you are doing. This fun, sweet, and busy boy has a huge heart and energy to match. His perfect forever home will be one that has room for a cat who wants to be more than just a pet…he wants to be part of the family in every way. And just like a favorite family member, he will be a loving and devoted companion.

Manzanita Farmers Market Week 12: Friday 4 to 7

Submitted By: info@manzanitafarmersmarket.com – Click to email about this post
It’s time for the farmers market again! Come join our fabulous vendors for another week of summer deliciousness!

Farming is hard, people. This is the season of bounty, but it’s always a risk. Sadly, Pearl Point Oyster Farm has pulled out of the market for the season due to unexpected mortality in their oyster beds. Cranberry Kitchen has been less present than usual due to a failure in the cherry crop, putting a dent in supply of their most popular products. All of our farmers and their staff are working through thick and thin to take advantage of this brief season of production. It takes a lot of work and navigating uncertainty to show up consistently with a full booth, and we appreciate them! Make sure you take advantage of the fruits of their hard work while it’s here!

What a band last week! Baz Moto was super fun and had the whole market dancing. They are a hard act to follow, but I’m going to try. Your intrepid market manager (that’s me, Carolina) will be on stage this week, trying my hardest to give you a full band sound with just two arms, two legs, and a soulful voice. I bring a one-woman band to the Manzanita stage, playing guitar and accompanying myself on the drums while I sing my little heart out with a “voice like sweet bourbon”. I cover pop, soul, rock, and americana over the decades, with unique original songs mixed in with familiar favorites in ways you’ve never heard.

See you at the market! Friday 4-7, 635 Manzanita Ave behind city hall.

Saturday night Candlelight Vigil for those killed by ICE in 2026

Submitted By: vivi@nehalemtel.net – Click to email about this post
This Saturday evening, August 1, at 8:45pm, neighbors will gather to honor the 32 people who have died at the hands of ICE in 2026, people who were shot or who died while held in detention facilities.
Bring a lantern, or a candle that you can hold to the parking lot at St Catherine’s Church on Highway 101 between Nehalem and Manzanita. We will start with a song and then read the names, ages and countries of origin of these victims of ICE. This is an hour to hold vigil, a time to reflect on the value of these lost lives. We have a sign and a battery powered light to illuminate it. Bring a folding chair to be most comfortable.

Saturday Protest in Nehalem-August 1

Submitted By: pattyrinehart@nehalemtel.net – Click to email about this post
Dear Friends,

The Peaceful Protesters involved with North County Resistance are still looking for answers to questions concerning incidents that happened months ago, weeks ago, and days ago. Questions about killings, detentions, coverups are answered with more killings, detentions, and coverups. I dare say as long as Trump is in office these incidents will continue.

Finally Chief Justice John Robers stood up to Trump saying his remedy against a judgement against him (Trump) was not the way the Constitution was written. It is probably too little and too late. The whole of the Supreme Court has well, “flushed the American people down the toilet”.

Is it too late to fight this? A question all must answer as individuals. If you can, come and join the North County Resistance on Saturdays, in Nehalem, from noon to 2 PM. Talk with us about how you feel. Tell us what you think we ought to be doing. Should we just let all of Trump’s antics slide, go home, watch TV, work in the garden, or whatever. Or should we be in Nehalem on Saturdays doing our protest, should we be writing letters with our complaints, should we be upset at all?

Did you hear Trump talk this week about the beautiful beaches in Cuba? Sounds like his family will be there soon scouting out these beaches for development-if they haven’t been already. Look for the dollars and this is where you will find the Trump family.

When looking up definitions of greed we find “excessive desire” and are told to look up “cupidity”. There I found “intense desire for possessions and wealth”. When is enough-enough, or not enough? And opposite of greed? I find this to be an interesting question. You can be generous. Generous with time, with compliments, with unselfishness and it will cost you nothing. You can also be generous by means of philanthropy, helping others with the monetary riches you have gotten from your life. A lot of this comes from a book I am reading, Theo of Golden by Allen Levi. In my book, greed is not good quality. But it is not my job to judge. Keeping my own house in order can be a full-time job.
So, hope to see you in Nehalem, Saturday, August 1, from noon to 2 PM. Bring a chair or what you need to be comfortable. Come when you can and stay as long as you can. We have lots of American Flags and if you would like to borrow one for this demonstration, we would be happy to provide you with one.

Best,
Patty Rinehart

Fire & Tide Exhibition

FIRE & TIDE: July 24 – August 23

Where flame meets the saltwater’s edge, nature leaves its mark.

Featuring the work of Randy McClelland, Drea Frost, Colin Meston, Duncan Berry, and Scott Vaughan.

Shaped by heat and ash, each ceramic piece bears the one-of-a-kind imprint of the kiln, while the paintings and prints capture the beauty of the coast. Together, they explore the balance between artistic intention and the unpredictable forces of nature.

Visit the Cannon Beach Gallery, a nonprofit community gallery dedicated to supporting artists, fostering creativity, and making the arts accessible to all. Experience this celebration of kiln and coast while helping sustain the arts on the Oregon Coast.
