Louise V. Christianson
Feb. 16, 1939 – Aug. 11, 2025

Louise Vitalis Christianson, Tillamook County’s whirlwind of compassion and enthusiasm for all things people, animals, good causes, and Mother Earth, was stilled by cancer the morning of Aug. 11, 2025, when she died at her home in Bayside Gardens. She was 86 years old.

Born Feb. 16, 1939, in Mishawaka, Ind., Louise worked at the family furniture store before heading west to San Francisco in the early 1960’s to work in the Finance and Investment field.

When not managing money she volunteered for a variety of local causes – whales, rescue dogs, the library, Big Sisters, recycling, and the San Francisco Opera. She also competed in ballroom dancing. She once spent two weeks with a group navigating the Colorado River. Mother Earth was her cathedral, and she was known to hug trees with the same spirit she did her dogs and her friends.

A camping trip to the Pacific Northwest sparked her interest in Oregon and prompted her move to Neahkahnie in 1994. In subsequent years she supported and got herself involved in a wide range of local causes — all in betterment to the community. Those included the North County Food and Clothing Bank, Lower Nehalem Community Trust, Manza-Whee-Lem Kiwanis, Columbia River Keepers, Tillamook Animal Shelter, Animal Haven by the Sea, Nature Conservancy, National Wildlife Federation, AARP, Salvation Army, Save The Redwoods, Doctors Without Borders, Environmental Defense Fund and any number of others.

Louise’s garden was a riot of colors and showed her tender attention to the needs of the plants. This wasn’t easy on her steep Neahkahnie lot, but she even started a business called “Garden Babies” in her greenhouse there.

When not outside with her flowers she enjoyed watching professional sports – particularly football and baseball. And then there were her dogs: Katie the Doberman; Mara the Malamute mix, and Zephyr the blue-eyed Husky.

Louise purchased her spacious one-level Bayside Gardens home in 2015. Zephyr moved there too and loved the large, fenced yard. After Zephyr, Louise started adopting senior dogs that required extra attention: Gee Gee, Handsome Joe, and Cooper. She gave them all a good life.

Louise was predeceased by her brothers John and Robert. She is survived by her sisters Sr. Roberta Christianson of Donaldson, Ind., and Sr. Jean Christianson of Coatzacoalcos, Veracruz, Mexico; sister-in-law Jan Christianson of Mishawaka, Ind.; nieces Amy Jacoby and Jean Richards; nephews Jack, Patrick and Steve Christianson, and 13 great nieces and nephews.

She also leaves behind a lot of good friends who will miss her.

Louise specifically did not want a memorial service to be held in her honor. Instead, she left instructions for a “Party.” In the coming months an appropriate time and place will be announced to mark the passing of a loving dynamo, who touched so many lives in her community.

Meet the new Mayor of Muttzanita!

Meet the new Mayor of Muttzanita!
Posting on behalf of Kim Rosenberg
loretta.kim.rosenberg@gmail.com

I sat down with the new Mayor of Muttzanita, Ms. Nina Kahnie, after the recent election to talk with her about how she plans to use her platform in the coming year.

Ms. Kahnie is a local gal born in Bayside Gardens to Tiny and Benjamin and adopted by her human family Ben and Kim. Her brother, Jasper, lives nearby and the two enjoy playing hard on the beach, in the dunes and by the bay where they practice sumo wrestling moves, old school hip hop break dancing and fast ball figure 8 racing.

At our interview on a lovely September afternoon, Ms. Kahnie wore a stunning red harness from 4 Paws on the Beach that showed off her athletic build. While we talked she nibbled on a late lunch of dehydrated elk liver and sauteed chicken hearts.

K.R. Congratulations, Mayor Kahnie. What would you like to say to the folks who voted for you and those who did not?’

N.K. It’s an honor to be nominated and run with a pack of such talented and charismatic dogs, let alone win. I’m thrilled and excited to represent all dogs everywhere!

K.R. What passions and interests do you bring to your term in office?

N.K. As a dog, I’ve always been interested in trees, plants and all the creatures that call the outdoors home. A few years ago, my humans replaced the ornamental grass in the front yard with trees and plants that attract and feed a variety of birds and pollinators. The goal is to eventually have year round food and shelter for a variety of creatures.

K.R. Why are trees so important to you?

N.K. Well, trees are a dog’s community message board. We have super-powered sniffers. We pick up all the local news and events, kind of like the BBQ but using trees not computers. After checking my pee mail, I know who’s in town, how long they’re staying and how they are. I know if a coyote or bobcat has been around or if the elk are in town. All us dogs do. But it’s not just about the trees, it’s what you humans call GREEN SPACE. I’m color challenged so I don’t know what this ‘green’ deal is all about but I can tell when a place is home to a critter. Wild creatures can only live in places where the conditions are right. So I like to keep my eyes open and my nose to the ground. When I’m walking my humans I’m constantly giving things the smell test to see what’s going on. Sometimes I even find snacks like road pizza! A great perk.

K.R. What do people get out of trees and plants?

N.K. You miss my point! It’s not just about trees or plants. Everything is connected. In my short life I’ve noticed that humans don’t seem to understand this. You aren’t separate from nature; you are part of it. Do you dig me? Without one thing like trees, other things like bugs and birds don’t exist. For us dogs, whether we’re sniffing the wind, digging a hole, chasing a squirrel, barking at hummingbirds, it’s all connected to nature and how we live. We’re happy if we’ve played hard outside. I think humans are the same. I’ve noticed that after I get my humans outside for some fresh air they’re calmer, sleep better and don’t get into as much trouble. I’ve heard that working in the yard even lowers blood pressure while elevating moods. I know that’s true for me. Getting my paws in the dirt on the daily for a do- it-yourself excavation project relaxes me. Plus, a chance to chase rodents!

K.R. What are a few of your favorite trees and plants?

N.K. There are so many! I’m a big fan of twin berry bushes. They get to to be about 10 ft tall and have yellow flowers in the very early spring that bees and hummingbirds really like when there’s not much food for them to eat. The blooms go for a long time. Dark purple berries form later and they don’t fall off the plant so no mess! There are so many other great native plants like kinnickinnic, loosestrife, salal, Oregon grape and huckleberry that do well here, even in poor sandy soil.

K.R. If a person isn’t much of a gardener how do they know what plants would grow well here?

N.K. A couple of things I think are helpful. The first is to ask friends and neighbors who garden what’s worked in their yards. You can also do some researching on-line or ask a Tillamook County Master Gardener. They have a great website and you can submit questions or give them a call. Also check out Aldervale Native Plants on North Fork Road. You can find more information about Aldervale on-line. Last but certainly not least, you can visit the Wonder Garden Plant Sale on September 20 from 10-12 at 595 Laneda where you’ll find a variety of beautiful plants.

K.R. What’s your final message for the readers, Mayor Kahnie?

N.K. We live in a beautiful place full of all kinds of wild living creatures. They benefit us. They need our support. You don’t need to do something big. Start small. Be mighty, not bitey. Like me. Nina Kahnie.

Earlier this year, the Tillamook Chamber of Commerce applied for an Oregon Main Street Revitalization Grant on behalf of Terry’s project. We were thrilled to learn that we secured a substantial $250,000 to help get this project going and address a critical need here in Tillamook.

From a workaholic executive finding love to a secret prince hiding in plain sight, the show comically embraces every cliché, trope, and heartwarming twist of holiday movies.

I’m just about done organizing my studio and sadly I can’t find a place for this awesome organizer I’ve had for 15-20 years. It’s antique, metal & glass. Perfect working condition. Narrow profile so it can fit in a counter or workbench nicely. Paid 145$ long ago. Happy with 50$ and a nice home where someone else can appreciate its unique usefulness.

It’s Patriot’s Day!!!

Here is a fun game to play on Patriot’s Day!


Ask 30 people how many World Trade Center buildings collapsed into their own footprint on 9/11/2001!
I bet ya a sawbuck that 9 out of 10 people will answer two buildings fell. The correct answer is three!
How do I know that? Because this is World Trade Center Complex Building #7 on 9/11/2001.
(good luck finding footage of the collapse of WTC 7, Google (CIA) has scrubbed most of it.)
It was a 57-story building, and it was NOT hit by an airplane! There was a small fire on the 37th floor, then there were explosions, then it collapsed! Doh!

Figure 4.17a Video of WTC 7 Collapse, Perspective 1 in NYC (9/11/01) (5:20pm EDT)
byu/sarge-m inCatastrophicFailure


The WTC complex’s (new) owner, Larry Silverstein (Mossad) was on 60-minutes explaining the destruction of WTC building 7. He said he and the NYFD decided to ‘pull it’ due to the potential of collapse.
But ‘pull it’ is a demolition term, and it would take weeks to rig the building for demolition??? What gives Larry???
Here is Larry on PBS:


rumble.com/v3h8t78-larry-silverstein-pbs-interview-sept-2002-admits-collapse-of-wtc-building-7.html?e9s=src_v1_s%2Csrc_v1_s_o
Then we invaded Iraq, stole their oil, and destroyed their country for Greater Israel! And then we transferred one-trillion of American taxpayer dollars to companies that make bombs and murder folks, via our ‘Afghanistan Project’!
In my view, buildings 1, 2, and 7 were rigged with explosives. Planes hit one and two, and then the demolition charges were pulled. The plane that was forced down in Pennsylvania? My guess is that it was supposed to hit bldg. seven BEFORE they puled the charges.
Anyway, yeah, let’s never forget what GW Bush, Dick Cheney, Israel, and Saudi Arabia did to us that day, including murdering hundreds of NYC firefighters.
HAPPY PATRIOT’S DAY!!!
🙂
(Next year: What happened to WTC building 6???)

Salmonberry Trail is Coming to Wheeler!

The building process has officially begun—be part of history in the making! Join our volunteer group as we build the very first Coastal section of the Salmonberry Trail right here in Wheeler.

This month, our trail team is hard at work creating a path alongside the rails and constructing a demonstration Rails AND Trails section.
As the saying goes, many hands make light work. Last Sunday, eleven dedicated volunteers cleared a huge stretch of blackberries, Scotch broom, and other invasive weeds along the tracks. The next two Saturdays, we’ll continue this effort—then move on to laying a compacted rock trail surface.

Come lend a hand and leave a legacy for Wheeler. Saturday September 13, 9am – 1pm and/or Saturday September 20.
And, enjoy your FREE LUNCH with fellow Trail builders!

High-price gasoline in Oregon

Posted on by North Coast BBQ

Submitted By: genedieken@yahoo.com – Click to email about this post
I’d assert that taxation isn’t the reason for the huge disparity in prices state-to-state.

State taxes per gallon applied in Oregon and North Carolina are identical at 40 cents, yet the current average cost per gallon in Oregon is $4.20 and the current cost in North Carolina is $2.82.

What we have HERE is a failure of the market.
