Dear BBQ Community-

April 15-22…

is INTERNATIONAL DARK SKY WEEK 2023!

What is Dark Sky week?

It is a chance to address light pollution and discover the beauty of our night sky.

You can learn more at:

idsw.darksky.org/

“WHAT IS LIGHT POLLUTION?

Any artificial light that is not needed is a pollutant that has serious and far-reaching consequences that are harmful to all living things.

Light pollution can:

disrupt wildlife

impact human health

waste money and energy

contribute to climate change

block our view of the universe

83% of the global population lives under a light-polluted sky.”

Preserving darkness is essential for our health, to protect our natural circadian cycle and to promote good quality sleep that helps us thrive.

Stargazing is an ancient meditation practice that uplifts our our mental, physical, and spiritual well-being. It can spark our imagination, gift self-reflection, connect us to inner peace and inspire a sense of interconnected meaning.

This week, weather permitting, look west in the evenings and see if you can spot the planet Venus!

Warm wishes! – Za Connor

Why ME for NCRD

Hello Community, Constance! here. This time to ask if you’ve seen my campaign signs? What do you think?

I’m a bit embarrassed to say…prior to moving here in April of 2007, we never recycled. My husband owned his own business which created free garbage service for us and that’s how we disposed of our garbage, ALL of our garbage. Now, having become conscious of our fragile planet, and joining the culture of our communities, we now recycle-repurpose-reuse whenever possible.

Now, back to the signs…you may notice they may not look quite as commercially made as some you will see. This is because they are created newly from being repurposed from my campaign 2 years ago as well as about 25 others I recovered for this purpose from the recent 2022 election. I painted over the old, stenciled in the new, saved $600 and I feel really good about them! You can contribute to my campaign by giving me permission to put one on your property, I promise to pick it up by 5/17!

Astoria Author Marianne Monson to Discuss New Novel at Cannon Beach Library

Astoria author Marianne Monson will discuss her new novel, “The Opera Sisters,” at 2 p.m. Saturday, April 22 in the Cannon Beach Library.
“The Opera Sisters” is based on the true story of the true story of sisters Ida and Louise Cook, who, on the eve of World War II, used their passion for opera to attempt the daring rescue of Jewish refugees from Nazi Germany.
A review of the novel says the story is about “ordinary women (who) find their inner strength, engaged in determined, clandestine actions to give others hope.”
Monson is the author of other works dealing with women’s history, including “Frontier Grit: The Unlikely Stories of Daring Pioneer Women,” and “Women of the Blue and Gray: True Stories of Mothers, Medics, Soldiers, and Spies of the Civil War.”
She also wrote “Her Quiet Revolution: a Novel of Dr. Martha Hughes Cannon, Frontier Doctor and First Female State Senator.”
Her nonfiction book, “Frontier Grit,” was nominated for the American Library Association’s Amelia Bloomer award. The companion volume, “Women of the Blue and Gray,” was awarded a silver medal by Foreword Reviews.
Monson holds a master of fine arts degree in creative writing from Vermont College of Fine Arts and has taught writing at Portland Community College, BYU Hawaii, Clatsop Community College and Texas State University. She is founder and president of a literary nonprofit, The Writer’s Guild.
Monson’s presentation is sponsored by the Cannon Beach Library’s NW Authors Series Committee. The committee hosts an author every month from September through May and presents the Writers Read Celebration in March.
