I’m offering a 10% week day discount to my tidepool workshop on July 30th, hoping to get some more of y’all out exploring and learning about our tidepools.

Use Code: WEEKDAY

Learn more & sign up here – [https://www.shiftingtidesnw.com/workshops/tidepooling-july30]

This workshop will immerse students in the rocky intertidal ecosystems of the Oregon Coast. We will discuss tides, ocean conditions, and safety and etiquette on the rocks. Dive into details on specific organisms and species interactions that make up the general ecology of our intertidal ecosystems. Spend time exploring the nooks and crannies of the rocky shores looking for critters of all sizes. We’ll be meeting near Cannon Beach, OR.

Oregon’s large tidal exchange provides a dynamic and unique look into a world beyond our own. Low tide offers a rare glimpse into the lives of creatures usually hidden beneath the waves. Explore the shores, stepping into the unique underwater universe of our rocky shores, and find green and pink anemones, vibrant sea stars, shore crabs, hermit crabs,iridescent sea slugs, prehistoric chitons, tide-pool fish, and so much more!Observing this vibrant ecosystem up close provides a fascinating look at the resilience and diversity of coastal marine life.

MEET YOUR GUIDE:
Mylasia is an experienced tidepooler and science educator hailing from the gulf coast of Texas. After graduating from Texas A&M University at Galveston with a degree in marine biology, she made the move to Astoria, Oregon, where she worked as a Fisheries Observer with the West Coast Groundfish Program. After her first tidepooling expedition to Haystack Rock, she was hooked! Through tidepooling, Mylasia discovered her passion for science communication. She loves getting to help people build connections to the rocky intertidal and inspiring the next generation of environmental stewards. With five years of experience in environmental education, she has served as a Tidepool Ambassador at Cape Falcon Marine Reserve and as a Rocky Shore Interpreter with the Haystack Rock Awareness Program. When she isn’t tidepooling, you can find her practicing photography, crocheting, or hanging with her cat.

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!

Pre-orders for both visits are encouraged – I will have the middle-dark raw Wildflower honey in quarts from Willamette Valley ($28 each), raw Coast Range Blackberry in quart jar ($30), raw Meadowfoam honey in quart jar ($32), raw Buckwheat honey in quart jar ($38) – and for a LIMITED time raw Macadamia Blossom honey from Hawaii (it’s amazing) – $38 each.

Cannon Beach Library Launches $1,000 Centennial Art Competition
Winning Design Will Become the Face of the Library’s 100th Anniversary Celebration
The Cannon Beach Library is inviting artists of all ages to help make history by creating the official artwork for our Centennial Celebration in 2027. The selected artist’s design will be featured throughout the library’s yearlong celebration, appearing on commemorative merchandise, promotional materials, and other Centennial events.
The competition is open to local and regional artists, with a $1,000 cash prize awarded to the winning entry.
Artists must create original work (no AI) inspired by the theme:
“Celebrating 100 Years… At the Heart of Cannon Beach.”
Designs may reflect the library’s rich history, our role as a community gathering place, the natural beauty of Cannon Beach, or the power of books, storytelling, and lifelong learning.
“This is a unique opportunity for an artist to leave a lasting mark on one of Cannon Beach’s most treasured institutions,” said Library Manager Jen Dixon. “The winning artwork will help tell the story of our first 100 years, while inspiring our next century of service.”
The winning design will be used on Centennial T-shirts, tote bags, posters, and other commemorative items, giving the selected artist’s work broad visibility throughout the celebration. The artist will also be recognized in library publications, on the library’s website, and during Centennial events. Submissions are due by September 1, 2026.
Complete submission guidelines, artwork specifications, and entry instructions are available at www.cannonbeachlibrary.org or by contacting the library at manager@cannonbeachlibrary.org.

Hey coasties!!!

I’ll be starting an in-person women’s Bible study next month.

Send me an email (laniciaduke@gmail.com) if you’re interested? I’ll send you details.

I believe in God, wholeheartedly. I’ve been studying and walking in the word for twenty-one years.

I know it’s hard for some who have been broken and harmed by the religious spirit. I’m grateful I still have a heart wanting to know God instead of hating God for other people’s faults, as they lied on who God is. Remember, Jesus was not a Christian! You don’t have to be either. Jesus was not “religious”. You don’t have to be either. Jesus was an example on how to be a child/heir of God.

I am not holding a religious experience. We are building each other up. Encouraging ourselves in the word of God.

If it ain’t for you, it ain’t for you.

But imagine if we stopped talking about people and began praying for our neighbors AND changing old ways, old patterns, old thinking and outdated teaching.

You’re not going to hell for drinking. But we will stay in hell if we would rather live in shame than grace.

But if you’re even just a bit curious, let me know.

I’m excited to get back to what I do best!

Threshold Choir Song Bath Q&A

Q: What is a Song Bath?
A: The Threshold Choir creates a sacred/quiet space for anyone to sit, relax, and receive healing vibration through singing to their body, mind and spirit. In general it calms your nervous system and like prayer, we can direct our love and kindness toward a specific place if requested.

Q: Do I need to share or speak at all?
A: No

Q: Can I sing along with the choir?
A: During Song Bath, we ask visitors to remain quiet. You are invited to stay after Song Bath to inquire more about becoming a choir member.

Q: Do I have to sit in the central gravity chair?
A: No. If you are more comfortable sitting in the choir circle or in a pew in the back, you are welcome to do so.

Q: Can I show up without RSVP?
A: Yes. Although we do like to have an idea ahead of time about how many people are planning to receive a song bath.

Q: Can I arrive late?
A: Yes. And we ask folks to enter and exit quietly.

Need TLC? You are invited to receive a Song Bath
(or simply sit in silence and hold space)

My Dear Friends,

I have written a book. It’s called Can You Feel It? Stories from North Coast Pinball.

In late April of 2021, Heather and I were laboring to transform Hal’s Emporium in Nehalem into [North Coast Pinball and North Coast Mudworks. We had just pulled up the old carpet, and we had yet to paint, and the place looked and smelled like the construction site that it was. It didn’t make sense to have any pinball machines in there at that point, but I had moved a couple in because I couldn’t wait.

As I walked through the place imagining what it would become, an unfamiliar song started playing on our portable speaker. I turned it all the way up because it sounded interesting. Slowly, gradually, the song rose like a wave approaching the sand, then crashed over me in slow motion.

It was “Dayvan Cowboy” by Boards of Canada, and that is when I felt it for the first time.

After the song ended, I stopped to take a breath. Then I printed a sign from four sheets of paper and taped the pages to the wall to remind myself of what I was working towards.

CAN

YOU

FEEL

IT?

We’ve been in business for five years, and I still feel it. It feels pretty good. And now I have written a book about it–about what it’s like here.

And the book is finished! It’s on my coffee table right now for you to browse through. It’s also available today on Amazon, and I’ll have more copies in the shop after a couple of weeks.

I really hope you like my book. Thanks for being part of my life. ♡

Will Irace
