8 week old puppy

Submitted By: Natasharae612@gmail.com – Click to email about this post
This sweet little gal is ready for her forever home. She’s 8 weeks old and has had her first shots and has been working on potty training and kennel training. She’s pitbull blend, fawn colors with both mom and dad in the home (an accidental litter). I’m very picky about where she ends up as I want the best for her. All her siblings have found homes! Yet she’s the sweetest one! We are in Bay City and happy to meet with interested families. My requirements are : no renters. Sorry. It’s such a huge reason people give up on dogs. Be pitbull savvy – understand their energy and training needs. Indoor home only. No dog houses or life on a chain. Have time for her. It would be a tragedy for her to be dumped a year from now due to “not having time” for a dog. So please don’t respond if the only reason is because she’s a cute puppy. Please actually have a forever life to offer her! She’ll return many years of love, laughter and loyalty. Thanks!

Original Owner. Great condition. We love this car!
Manual shifting option. Leather interior. Dual climate control. Moonroof. JBL sound. 5-disc CD player.
This car is solid. Very safe. Floats like a Cadillac. Not a sports car. Great for long trips or driving around town.
This car gets 31mpg highway, 24mpg around town.
Extra set of OEM carpeted floor mats. Car cover. Engine air filters.
Only issue is that it drips a quart of oil every 2000 miles; there is NOT a puddle of oil in the garage where we park the car.

New Plumber in town!

Submitted By: jocooper8183@gmail.com – Click to email about this post
This past week we had a plumbing “emergency” that we really needed solved quickly. My husband just googled “plumbers near me” (since our FAVORITE plumber retired recently) and found Mason Eley in Nehalem. He came by very quicky, diagnosed the problem, went and got the parts he needed, returned in a very short period of time and fixed the problem. He was super nice to work with and we would recommend him to everyone. In talking to him as he worked he indicated that he is trying to build time in his schedule to accommodate emergency events, like ours. Blue Haven Plumbing LLC is the name of his company. Email is Bluehavenplumbing@gmail.com

Another Candlelight Vigil this Weekend for Indiginous Men Killed by ICE….

Submitted By: kathleenmoss@protonmail.com – Click to email about this post
The following is a tentative plan, and if it is raining more than a light drizzle, consider it canceled, and we will try again on Sunday at the same time….

This Saturday evening, July 25th, at 9pm some neighbors will gather again to remember Lorenzo and Johan, as well as many other indigenous* men who have been killed by ICE, either through their windshields with bullets paid for by our tax dollars, or while being severely neglected or abused in detention facilities paid for by our tax dollars.

From 9pm-10pm, bring a candle that you can hold to the parking lot at St Catherine’s Church on 101 in Bayside Gardens/Nehalem. We will start with a gentle song or two and then attempt a time of silent reflection on the value of these lost lives and what we can do to stop this culture of terror.

Vigils are happening all over the country on Saturday, but if it is raining this Saturday, we will try again at 9pm on Sunday the 26th.

At this last Sunday’s vigil it was meaningful for some to have real candles with flames, but electric candles and lanterns are also welcome and will be safer if the ground is dry. No signs are needed. If you bring a sign please bring a bright battery powered light to illuminate it.

* I refer to these men as indigenous because their families’ mothers and fathers come from North and South American lands and mine do not. This is a personal definition and I realize that others may not share it.

Big Sale at Historic Wheeler Hospital

Submitted By: marc@nehalembayhd.org – Click to email about this post
(Wheeler) – Artists, antiques dealers, contractors restoring old homes, and investors in unique collectables will find items they need and their customers want for sale at the old hospital in Wheeler from July 31 to August 2.

Opened in 1955, closed as a hospital in 1989, and operated primarily for office and storage space through 2025, furniture and various fixtures remain in the old hospital, but now must be removed to facilitate environmental remediation work.

The Nehalem Bay Health District, owner of the hospital building, has gathered the most valuable objects from those heritage years to offer at bargain prices.

The historic hospital salvage sale will take place from 10:00 am to 4:00 pm from July 31 through August 2 at 278 Rowe Street in Wheeler. Follow signs from Highway 101 up Hospital Road. Free parking on site. Level access from the parking lot through an open bay door. Sale areas will be clearly marked, and not all rooms of the building will be open to the public. All proceeds from sales will support the District’s operations.

Items are available for sale in advance of environmental remediation work at the old hospital that is scheduled to begin in mid-August. The old hospital is in deteriorated condition, and the District has deemed the building unsuitable for further use. The Health District recently declared the items for sale to be surplus.

The Health District eventually plans to demolish the old hospital with the hope of repurposing the property to create workforce housing, particularly for health care and other essential workers, in order to ease the area’s chronic housing shortage.

The Nehalem Bay Heath District has served the health and senior care needs of north Tillamook County residents and visitors since 1951. The District owns the new Nehalem Bay Health Center and Pharmacy, as well as the Nehalem Valley Care Center, a skilled nursing facility adjacent to the old hospital. Renovation planning of the Care Center is currently underway with significant upgrades to the facility scheduled for early in 2027.

Linens, tablecloths

Submitted By: la0gonza81@gmail.com – Click to email about this post
I’m looking to buy vintage tablecloths or other vintage linens, i.e. embroidery, cross stitch, handkerchiefs, pillowcases. I have a small business where I repurpose, upcycle, save fabrics that may have small stains or holes; I turn them into other items like aprons, bags, or patchwork items. I would love to inherit someone’s loved collection, willing to pay per piece or as a lot. My goal is to reduce waste of fibers and bring new life into pieces that may need some TLC. I have great care and appreciation for these items and would love to turn them into something that will continue to be loved and used for years to come.

Send me photos and prices. Willing to meet up anywhere between Wheeler and Tillamook.

MONTH-TO-MONTH PARKING RV, MH, BOAT ETC

Submitted By: diwax54@gmail.com – Click to email about this post
$100 Monthly (or by the week) storage parking outdoor RV/5th wheeler/boat/trailer/camper/kayaks/canoes Rockaway Beach
This is a great spot for parking only. Space for storing only for your RV, trailers, boats, campers, kayaks and vehicles/cars etc. If you are planning on doing an extended vacation inTillamook county, this storage spot ‘ONLY’ is really convenient.

This is outside and unlocked area, therefore it’s your responsibility to properly lock up your equipment. I assume no responsibility for loss or damage for equipment or vehicles left on the property.
This is a for “storage parking” spots ‘ONLY’ ! NO ‘living’ in while parked and being stored. I would also consider $25 a week for shorter stays.
I own the property and live here full-time. The street and neighborhood is crime free. All immediate neighbors have cctv cameras around their premises.
