Need 30 inches of 2×6 Cedar or Exterior Wood

Submitted By: leekeekanoo@charter.net – Click to email about this post
I’m happy to pay the going per foot rate for a 30″ length or 2 pcs 15″ of cedar or exterior wood (the coated orangey kind), not the punched kind.

Before I buy an 8′ board, and end up with a 66″ piece of lumber I have no use for, I thought I’d see if someone has some scrap this size.

I’m in Rockaway but will travel as far north as Arch Cape or south to Tillamook to pick up.

LETTER FROM THE DIRECTOR OF ‘IT’S A WONDERFUL LIFE: THE RADIO PLAY’ AT NCRD THIS WEEKEND

Submitted By: frank@wandascafe.com – Click to email about this post
You may know me as the owner of Wanda’s Café + Bakery, or as the Director of the hit production ‘Arsenic and Old Lace’ this past June, or as this year’s Director of ‘It’s A Wonderful Life: The Radio Play’ coming up this weekend at the NCRD Performing Arts Center.
When my family moved to Manzanita from Portland to take over the iconic café in Nehalem, we wanted to be more than just business owners. We wanted to be a part of something bigger, to be a part of the fabric of the community, and to be involved in the schools, to be involved in local governments, and to be involved in local community projects of all kinds. For it’s a community and how you spend your time in it that defines who and what you are.
As new business owners we were welcomed with open arms, and maybe a touch of skepticism from those that were concerned that we were about to ruin Wanda’s. As the years have passed since our takeover the community has expressed its pleasure with our stewardship by rewarding us with record visits and record sales, each year outperforming the previous.
But we wanted it to be about more than just the business. I was fortunate to be asked to join the board of the Riverbend Players Community Theater group and a new love was born. Having spent nearly 40 years as a radio broadcaster and TV host I found an unexpected new passion, theater. And not just any theater, but community theater.
A big part of the sense of community that I was looking for has been found within our group. It’s an opportunity for a distraction from the regular tasks of operating a business and a chance to be involved with some incredibly gifted and giving neighbors who come together to put on multiple performances a year for our little community on the coast.
Theater, and the arts in general, are such a gift we get to share with one another, and I am thankful for the opportunity to helm my second production this weekend.
The production is only as good as the cast and crew you work with, and these 15-20 people involved in ‘It’s A Wonderful Life’ are some of the best.
More intimately, it’s a loving experience for my family with my husband Patrick and daughter Colbie both being highly involved in the production with me.
After hours, weeks, and months of rehearsing they are ready to give their all in a delightful holiday tradition at the NCRD Performing Arts Center.
May your holidays be filled with love and laughter. And thank you for supporting Riverbend Players Community Theater with your presence in the theater, your support of advertisement in our playbill, and your spirited encouragement for all we do.

Blackouts?

In North Carolina two different electrical substations were sabotaged leaving 35,000 without power for many days in the winter. This is similar to what is happening in Oregon.

News Nation reports Federal Law Enforcement officials saying “Power companies in Oregon and Washington have reported physical attacks on substations using hand tools, arson, firearms and metal chains possibly in response to an online call for attacks on critical infrastructure. … In recent attacks, criminal actors bypassed security by cutting the fence links, lighting nearby fires, shooting equipment from a distance or throwing objects over the fence and onto equipment.”
Back in February the Justice Department convicted three men (Texas, Ohio, Wisconsin) of plotting to attack power grids in America.

“Three men pleaded guilty today to crimes related to a scheme to attack power grids in the United States in furtherance of white supremacist ideology.According to court documents, Christopher Brenner Cook, 20, of Columbus, Ohio; Jonathan Allen Frost, 24, of West Lafayette, Indiana, and of Katy, Texas; and Jackson Matthew Sawall, 22, of Oshkosh, Wisconsin, each pleaded guilty to one count of conspiring to provide material support to terrorists. The charge and plea agreements indicate that the defendants knew and intended that the material support they conspired to provide would be used to prepare for and carry out the federal offense of destroying energy facilities.”

News & Observer noted previous attacks over the years “…San Jose, California, nearly a decade ago. At least two people armed with rifles opened fire on Pacific Gas & Electric’s Metcalf substation shortly after midnight on April 16, 2013. A fusillade of more than 100 rounds disabled 17 transformers. The company was able to reroute power and contain the outage but had to spend $15 million on repairs. There have been other attacks on power substations since, including a series by an Arkansas man later that year. In 2016, someone fired a rifle into a substation in southern Utah, cutting off electricity to 13,000 customers for a day.”
