With delayed road repair in the state, and increasing traffic as well as vehicle weight heading up, funds to maintain and improve road infrastructure are needed. Doesn’t look like demand is ever going down.
Still, HB2025 faces much resistance and may not pass. If it does then some lawmakers vow to refer it to voters. I do like parts of the bill: for personal vehicles the per-mile-tax formerly proposed for everyone would only apply to EVs and certain other battery-assisted cars. And I like that the 2%-1% sales tax doesn’t apply to vehicles under $10k. Many of the fee increases seem excessive, until they are compared to the overall expense of owning a car or truck. A lot of them may not have increased in a long time so it’s coming eventually. There’s still no fees I’m aware of for traction tires, which cause tremendous wear and tear on roadways.
All children and young adult books are $1 each.
We are grateful for your support, which helps fund building maintenance. Hope to see you there: Great deals await!



I myself had a really tough time parting ways with society’s most fundamental materialist rule, which holds that all things can be explained physically and therefore consciousness is confined to the brain. After I, as an adamant though alcoholic atheist in 1982, underwent a three-minute cardiac arrest, shot out of my body, travelled through a landscape, and eventually communicated telepathically with a tremendously loving being, I came back to life faced with an existential dilemna. That had to have been some kind of brain shut-down, right?
But, as I explain in my book, my energetic filter had been damaged, so the after-effects kept coming: 5 years later I witnessed a ghost; 10 years later I foreknew a death; 12 years later, the same loving being busted into my consciousness to pretty much strike me sober. I’ve since interviewed dozens of NDErs whose stories overlap with mine.
My book — Die-Hard Atheist: from NDE-Denier to Full-on Woo-Woo — is available at Cloud & Leaf Books or Manzanita News & Espresso, as well as via the evil empire (Amazon), where it’s garnered a 4.5 rating (85 reviews). The link is just below. A few Manzanita locals have read and enjoyed the book. Email me to find out whether you already know one of them or if you’d like to buy an author copy directly from me.

PS: If you’re not into buying anything but are willing to look into science beyond materialism, a good starting point is the increasingly popular podcast, The Telepathy Tapes, available everywhere.

I would love to sell this all as a big ol’ bundle but happy to divide stuff a bit too. Storage totes included.
Up to $20 each week, we will give you $20 more in Double Up Food Bucks, good for fresh produce, and $20 in extra SNAP tokens, funded by Fulcrum Community Resources and our local sponsors. Every week, you can spend $20 in SNAP and get $60 to spend at the market!
It’s easy to do. When you arrive at the market, go to the info booth, just inside the main entrance on Division Street. We will run your card and give you tokens to spend with our vendors. All vendors selling SNAP eligible products accept the tokens, so you can purchase produce, bread, meat, eggs, canned goods, pastries, and more. Tokens don’t expire, and can be used throughout the season.
Thanks to our local sponsors who have made this possible: Fulcrum Community Resources, Viridian Architecture, and Sunset Vacation Rentals. And thanks to the Farmers Market Fund for administering and funding the Double Up Food Bucks program.
Want to help us fund the triple match through the season and increase food security in our community? Email me to learn more about our sponsorship program!
SNAP, or Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, was formerly known as food stamps. The federally funded program aims to increase food access and security.
In addition to the board and skins, I have a snowboard helmet, Burton gloves, Patagonia snowboard pants, goggles, and a few different types of jackets (fleece, raingear, etc). All of this has worked for me as a medium-build woman.
The board has seen some life but with the new skins it’s a great set-up for winter adventures. I have another ad with some additional snow/mountain/climbing gear so please keep an eye out for that if you wanna create a little bundle.
