Inspiration of the week For the love of trees
She went out on a limb.
For the love of the sea..
She rocked the boat.
For the love of the earth..
She dug deeper.
For the love of community..
She mended fences.
For the love of the stars..
She let her light shine.
For the love of spirit..
She nurtured her soul.
For the love of a good time..
She sowed seeds of happiness.
For the love of the Goddess..
She drew down the moon.
For the love of nature..
She made compost.
For the love of a good meal..
She gave thanks.
For the love of family..
She reconciled differences.
For the love of creativity..
She entertained new possibilities.
For the love of her enemies..
She suspended judgment.
For the love of herself..
She acknowledged her worth.
And the world was richer for her.”

MEET THE CAST: BRONIE ARNOLD and RACHEL PINCI
Bryonie Arnold:
Bryonie is excited to join this stellar cast and crew for her 6th performance with Riverbend Players! She lives in Manzanita with her hubby, son, and fur babes, and is grateful for this beautiful community. Bryonie’s passions are many, including art making in all forms, protecting the most vulnerable, and weaving daily joy and wonder back into the world.
Rachel Pinci:
Rachel lives in Rockaway Beach with her husband (and onstage love interest), Isaac Bertrand, plus their dogs, Luna and Riggly, and their cat, Spooky. This marks her 4th show with Riverbend since moving to the area. When not acting, Rachel works as a child and family therapist. She also passionately enjoys writing music, singing, and playing the piano.
THE HOLIDAY CHANNEL CHRISTMAS MOVIE WONDERTHON, by Don Zolidis and directed by Frank Squillo, is a hilarious spoof of the Hallmark and Lifetime Channel Christmas movies.
Set in a cozy Vermont inn during Christmas time, the play follows six predictable, intertwined love stories filled with small-town charm, romantic misunderstandings, and holiday magic.

Friday and Saturday nights at 7 pm, Sunday matinees at 2 pm.

Dec 8, from 2 – 4pm!
“Now, in the darkest time of the year, let us raise our voices and our spirits!”
It’s time to gather, once again, around the piano to sing holiday and old favorite songs, share refreshments and socialize. Don’t worry if you don’t remember the words or think you can’t sing….everyone is welcome!…and we will project the words on the large screen for all to see. Participants are encouraged, though not required, to bring cookies to share. We will provide hot cider and lots of enthusiasm.
This is a Conscious Aging and Community Connections event. Our intention is to bring people in our communities together, get to know one another at a deeper level, and to encourage one another to live our best possible lives. We look forward to singing with you!!!

COMMUNITY EVENT – Get to Know Your Sewing Machine
with Cindy Erickson
Saturday, November 29, 2025
1:00–4:00 PM
HeartWorks Studio | 395 Nehalem Blvd, Wheeler, OR
Sliding scale: $5–$20 (details below)
Register: www.heartofcartm.org/workshops/p/know-your-sewing-machine
About the Class
Beginner-friendly, hands-on class to learn sewing machine setup, care, and stitching basics—then create something new using reclaimed materials. This class is designed for you to learn on your own sewing machine, so please bring yours to use during the session.
What You’ll Learn
– The basic parts of your sewing machine and what they do
– How to thread your machine and wind a bobbin
– How to adjust tension for smooth stitching
– Essential machine care and maintenance
– How to use basic stitches to complete a simple project
What to Bring
Your own portable sewing machine (in good working order) and its instruction manual.
Scissors and thread will be provided, but you’re welcome to bring your own if preferred.
Please Note
Class begins promptly at 1:00pm. To keep things flowing smoothly for everyone, please plan to arrive a few minutes early to get settled before we start.
Keep in Mind
Learning to sew is like learning to play an instrument—it takes time and practice. Once you understand the basics, your skills (and imagination) will grow with every project. This class is a perfect starting point for future sustainable sewing workshops at Heart of Cartm.
———
At Heart of Cartm, we run on curiosity, coffee, and community, not big budgets. Your registration keeps the gears turning and the scraps flying.
Tinker ($5) — For when your wallet’s light but your creative spark’s still bright
Maker ($10) — Covers the cost of materials and a coffee’s worth of inspiration.
Resourcerer ($15) — Powers the machine so we can continue to offer more reuse magic.

HOLIDAY WEEKEND HOURS

Gutter cleaning /roof moss removal
Thank you

A little early…
I’ll be venturing into Portland for this but have done this prior years here on the coast.
With everything everyone has gone through the last couple of years, random unconditional love can go a long way!
I’ll be teaming up with Kajsa from the Good Mail project (kajsa.love); she’ll be making love letters to pass out!
Open to proposals of sponsorships/ads (such as a business contributing in exchange for sharing stickers or flyers of your business). We just want to be able to share with as many people as possible and see what good it can do!
Please learn more here and contribute if you can, any amount: gofund.me/ecca4d23e
Thank you!
Get vaccinated
With the ascendance of anti-vaxxers into the U.S. government, U.S. residents need to be sure we are receiving medical information that is accurate, unbiased and free of propaganda.
Sadly, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and many Federal sources are no longer completely trustworthy as sources of scientific information.
For those of us who are older, the risks of severe illness are higher if we do become sick. With North Tillamook County having an older population we are also at higher risk from the unvaccinated.
Due to vaccine hesitancy, the U.S. is seeing severe outbreaks of preventable diseases this year.
If you have a trusted doctor, they are the primary source of current and safe information.
The American Medical Association (AMA) continues to be rated well for disseminating reliable health information: www.ama-assn.org/public-health
Sources outside of the United States can also be reliable. A comprehensive study on vaccine safety has been published by a Danish source that may be of interest:
Large Danish Study: No link between vaccines and autism or 49 other health conditions
Facts about the study
Researchers from Statens Serum Institut (SSI) used Denmark’s unique health registers to analyze data from more than 1 million Danish children born between 1997 and 2018 to investigate potential long-term health effects of aluminum-containing vaccines.
The study examined 50 different conditions and found no statistical association between aluminum content in vaccines and increased risk of developing autism, autoimmune diseases, asthma, or allergic conditions such as hay fever and food allergies.
The study has just been published in the prestigious medical journal Annals of Internal Medicine.
