CHINOOK PRAYER
May all I say and all I think
Be in Harmony with Thee,
God within me, God beyond me,
Maker of the Trees.
ee cummings
The mercy of perfect sunlight after days of dark,
will climb;
will blossom;
will sing
(like april’s own april and awake’s awake)
Though it’s May now the SUN came out today after our stormy few days so I thought the quote was germane–Barbara

Thirty People Strong at this week’s protest in Nehalem. Yes, we got wet, but very few people cared. Same fantastic response from people driving and walking by. If you didn’t have a chance to drive by and see all the signs let me share with you about each one:
Human-Kind Be Both
Stand in Solidarity with those without your Privileges
How much money is the Trump Family making off all this?
Miller is a traitor-an Evil Architect
People HAVE the POWER
Expose Epstein
Congress-DO YOUR JOB
86-47
Expose Congress-DO YOUR JOB
WHY are we paying (you and me) for Billionaires to fly to China?
NO TO ICE
Pretti GOOD-ICE OUT
NO KINGS
SHAME
IMPEACH TRUMP
Why are we letting Trump make Statues with our money?
Say no to Spending Taxpayer money to build Ballroom
IF YOU CAN IDENTIFY WITH ANY OF THE ABOVE, we hope you will join us this coming Saturday in Nehalem, May 23, from noon to 2 PM.
Again, we had some special guests joining us-and of course I can’t find the paperwork on this, but I will try to get it right. Two ladies from the mid-west who had gone on an Alaskan cruise together. They had gotten off the boat in Seattle and were driving down the coast. The entire trip, both in the car and on the boat, they wore their red knitted hats to show their disapproval of our government. When they saw us protesting they stopped their car and joined us. Another couple from Arizona were driving to Alaska and when they saw us protesting they stopped their camper truck and joined us. They travel with their own signs to protest and stop to help when they get a chance. There was another couple, but I am sorry to say I do not remember their story. Am sure someone will jog my memory this next week.
On another note, I was so pleased to see the results of the Emergency Volunteer Corps of Nehalem Bay food drive. There were 91 participants and 29 volunteers. They gathered 1,199 pounds of food which I believe equals about 1,100 cans of food plus, and…$8,000 in donations to split between the North County Food Bank in Wheeler and the Nehalem Bay Community Services in Nehalem. WOW!!! What a great community. If you are able, give yourselves and the EVCNB a huge pat on the back!
We need to keep up this good work. See you in Nehalem next Saturday, May 23, from noon to 2 PM. We are a long ways out, but it looks like a pretty nice day at this point.
Best,
Patty

There’s no real identifying features to the key ring, except perhaps that there’s no electronic fob – only a handful of regular old keys. One key is on a tiny carabiner.
I think they’re probably lost to the sand or the sea, but figured it’s worth asking!
My name is Tim Roth, and my wife Laura and I are relocating to the Oregon Coast to teach for Neah-Kah-Nie School District. As we settle into the area this year, we are hoping to find a home to rent for the 2026–2027 school year.
If you might be heading overseas, traveling for an extended period, or simply need someone to take extremely good care of your home while you are away, we would love to help. It is just my wife and me, as our kids are off at university, so we are extremely flexible regarding home size. The home can be furnished or unfurnished…whichever is easiest for you.
We are very respectful, clean, responsible, and courteous people, and we would take great care of your home. References are available upon request.
Thanks so much for considering us!
Tim and Laura Roth

It has some age-related quirks, including tears in the driver’s seat (easily covered with seat covers included) and some sticky door locks. I will happily share any other details for interested parties.
