I Will Wait For Her

Submitted By: jettkeyser@gmail.com – Click to email about this post
Aside…

Poetry Out Loud is open to all each first and third Wednesday of the month at 430 in the Manzanita Library…We gather to read or simply enjoy listening to the poetry of others. Not our own. Next Meeting
is this week, June 17, 2026

A Dark Night

On the shore in la barra de Santiago

lightning opens a black horizon.

Under a cloudy tropical moon

she will emerge from a warm sea

and slowly move out through scattered

coconut husks and mango seeds beyond

the reach of even the highest tides.

She will build a nest on what is the shore

of her birth. Sea turtles will navigate

immense distances and often go deep, down

to great depths, where in complete darkness,

timeless minutes pass between heart beats.

Ashore, she will dig her whole body down,

then dig a deeper chamber, a cache to protect

her valued eggs. Seldom do the arriving turtles

pass unnoticed. There are hungry ones here,

some with machetes and bright lights and

they all know how to wait. Sea turtles

are ancient beings that are now approaching

extinction. But on this dark night, she will secure

a continuing future for her kind. Her distinct tracks

will be erased, washed away by a warm rain,

destiny buried deep, safe in the nested sand

and I will wait for her.

Flag Day

Submitted By: Tatianamc007@gmail.com – Click to email about this post
14 June, 2026 – Manzanita has lined its main street with American flags to celebrate Flag Day.
It commemorates the adoption of the American flag by the Second Continental Congress in 1777, which resolved that the flag would feature 13 alternating red and white stripes and a union of 13 stars on a blue field.

Dog Seeks Home

Submitted By: paprikapink@gmail.com – Click to email about this post
I’ve come to the difficult decision that my dog, Foxy, needs a new home.

Foxy is a shepherd mix. Her DNA test says she’s about 30% Border Collie, Collie, and Australian Cattle Dog, and 52% German Shepherd. To me she looks like an Australian Shepherd or a McNab Shepherd. She weighs about 70 pounds (probably about 15 pounds overweight). She has the brains and the heart that you’d expect from those breeds.

I adopted her 6 months ago from a rescue in Texas. They told me she did not like other dogs.

She has a scar on her nose and a damaged ear. I suspect those might be injuries from a traumatic encounter with another dog when she was young. When she is on leash and she sees another dog, she is so reactive that I cannot manage her. I have tried numerous different leash and collar combinations and contraptions. What it really comes down to is that I am not strong enough.

Foxy is such a sweet and loving companion. She’s very cuddly for a big girl. In the house she’s very responsive, often knowing what I want just from a gesture. She has a crate and she goes into it voluntarily, but I dont close the door. She’d prefer to spend all her time with you, of course, but when I’ve left her alone she’s been fine.

For now she is a “house dog,” living much like a house cat who is not allowed out. Except that we go out to my patio several times a day just to hang out. But I know she’d be much happier if she could go on long rambling walks. Or even just be able to sniff around in a real backyard that gives her enough space to stretch her legs. DNA says she is 10, but until I got that, the rescue, the vet, and I all thought she was about 5. She’s in good health, energetic and nimble, and loves to learn. She might even like to be introduced to a little agility training.

If you think you might be the right person for Foxy and would like to learn more about her, please contact me at paprikapink@gmail.com

Dogtown Adventures FAQ

Submitted By: dtaoregoncoast@gmail.com – Click to email about this post
Hi neighbors!

Katie and Bruce with Dogtown here!
Hope everyone’s (almost) summer is going well so far!

It’s the middle of my second month being open for biz and we couldn’t have asked for a better start! Thought I’d pop on here to say hi again and perhaps do so every month.

I’ve been getting several questions regarding leashes- To leash or not to leash?
Thought I’d break it down for ya.

Let’s say you’ve had your introduction session.. This is where Bruce (my dog) and I come by, meet your dog (and you), take them for a lil walk to see how their recall, social behavior, and leash etiquette are. This isn’t necessarily a make or break test. But I can say, the only real deal breaker would be extreme aggression or fear.
So, we’ve done that, (hypothetically) and all goes well..

Adventure is booked and I come by to pick up your dog.
When we get to where we’re going, all dogs are leashed, initially. New guy/gal stays on a long lead and we work on recall. (Treats really come in handy here)
When it gets to the point where I’m confident that our new friend will come back when I call, they are now in the circle of trust! *Referencing DeNiro in Meet the Fockers

Often times after the dogs have been running hard, I’ll leash em’ up to chill for a bit as well.
I always have water on hand too.

Our version of beach etiquette: *Law requires off leash dogs to respond to recall. We all know from living here that this is often times not the case
-We stay away from super populated areas
-Always leashed entering beach of choice
-Only let off leash when other beach goers are nowhere near

As the beaches get busier, we will venture up into the woods and visit some rivers as well
Always safety first!
Dogs are also equipped with Garmin collars and I carry a first aid kit.

Hope that helps! Please reach out with any Qs!
Free most weekdays after 3

Booking Mondays and Fridays and soon to add Wednesdays!

Egyptian Walking Onion bulbils

Submitted By: valerieschaferfranklin@gmail.com – Click to email about this post
Shown in photos: bulbil clusters from the top of a perennial, top-setting scallions. My plant had a lot of bulbils this year if you’d like a plant for your garden. The entire plant is edible.

Place/secure the bulbils to the ground and you’ll have a clump of scallions in the fall. Next spring/summer, the scallions will put off their own bulbils at the top of the stalks.

Very hardy, I’ve grown it in very poor old window box soil and even seen it volunteer in gravel.

United Paws’ Cat of the Week: Meet Lynx

Submitted By: Website@unitedpaws.org – Click to email about this post
Meet Lynx, United Paws’ Cat of the Week. Beautiful and exotic with swirling bands of gold and brown on thick fur that matches her large golden eyes, Lynx is described by her foster as “the epitome of a sweet kitten.” She is as unusual and beautiful as she is sweet. Lynx loves to explore and play with anything made with feathers, but her very favorite thing is having contact from humans. Belly rubs send her over the moon!!
Lynx and other kittens were found abandoned in a remote area of Nehalem and rescued by volunteers. Lynx was one of the sickest kittens United Paws has worked with. It took many months of heroic medical care, good food, safe shelter, and loving hands to bring this beauty back to perfect health. Lynx has survived the battle of a lifetime and, through all of her suffering, she continued to be the sweetest, most tolerant, and patient of personalities. She is a true champion, now healthy and ready for her forever home.
This loveable kitten will do well as the only cat in a home where she can receive lots of attention, human connection and cuddle time. Because she has formed strong bonds with the foster kittens she has grown up with, a littermate or another friendly cat would be an added bonus in heattentiver new home. Lynx will likely do well with a gentle dog, with the proper introduction. Because of her early struggles, it will be important for her adopter to be to maintaining Lynx’s good nutrition and seeing that she has regular veterinary care.
Meet Lynx and you will be dazzled by her sweetness and striking beauty. She should be good in a home with other cats, kids and gentle dogs. To learn more, please visit unitedpaws.org and email unitedpawshelp@gmail.com to schedule a Meet & Greet.
