Maytag Neptune washer and dryer in good working condition. Both are clean and have no mold or mildew. The washer is not as quiet on the spin cycle as it used to be, but has no leaks and still has life in it. The dryer is excellent, has been cleaned, and works perfectly. I just finished the last load of clothes. I have a van and can move them locally, if you have some muscle to lift them. $200 for the pair. Wheeler.

Theme is nourishing.
offered by Libby Golden , Integrative Nutrition Health Coach / Bodyworker / Dancing For Birth™ Trainer

Restore, reflect, warm, envision:

Wearing dark colors, black or dark blue, join us to honor our need for movement within the seasonal wisdom of nourishing our deepest yin energies in the water element.

30 minutes / reflective meditation, healing movements that address yin restoration and a group circle dance fostering gentle connection to balance these dark times that can feel isolating.

30-45 minutes / ecstatic dance to yin nourishing music following our individual bodies while and inviting movements we just went over with final moments intended for laying on the floor, so bring a yoga mat if you wish to have a buffer. I’ll have two extra if there’s need.

Spring energies are coming, so taking the time to deeply nourish while the season is still present will help us be ready when spring waves arise.

Free Epson inkjet printer

I have an Epson Workforce 545 inkjet printer for free. It works and prints fairly well, but it has some gaps in the printing that I cannot get cleaned up completely. Has a new printhead I put in to see if it would fix this, but it did not. The printing from it is still pretty good quality though. Good for emails, documents, anything with text, but for pictures it would print them, just not as well.

Update on Rural Tillamook Business License (Ordinance #88)

Posted on by North Coast BBQ

Submitted By: ruraltillamookbiz@gmail.com – Click to email about this post
In December, we posted on the BBQ asking if the community had any information about the proposed Ordinance #88 / the rural business license. Since then, several community members reached out, helped us find documentation, and attended public meetings with us. (Thank you!)

Bottom line? Ordinance #88 is gone, but the idea of a rural business license seems to be continuing on behind closed doors. The reason: Money (yours).

In response to what we learned, we created a website that publishes the documents for everyone to see — including the original language of Ordinance #88: ruraltillamookbiz.wordpress.com/about/

On the site, we also wrote a few blog posts with more information: 

– Report on the EDC Public Meeting 12/19/22: https://ruraltillamookbiz.wordpress.com/2023/01/07/report-on-the-dec-2022-edc-public-meeting/

– The Real Reason the County Proposed a Rural Business License? https://ruraltillamookbiz.wordpress.com/2023/01/15/the-real-reason-the-county-proposed-a-rural-business-license/

Here’s the latest: 
– In November and December at public meetings, Commissioner Bell said her next step was to create a work group to revise Ordinance #88 in January. We haven’t been able to find out much about this work group. If you have any information on the work group, please reach out to: ruraltillamookbiz@gmail.com. 

– The EDC’s next public meeting is Monday, Jan 23 at 8 am: https://www.edctc.com/edc-minutes

– The County Commissioner’s next public meeting is Weds, Jan 18 at 9 am: https://www.co.tillamook.or.us/bocc/page/board-commissioners-meeting-68. Written public comments must be submitted 24 hours in advance. 

A rural business license will shut down small supplemental family businesses that help us survive in a rural area. The fact that this rural business license was 1) proposed at all, 2) tried to pass between Thanksgiving and Christmas with minimal public oversight, 3) with so little concern by Commissioners for hard-working families, and 4) has since gone underground — is so wrong-headed that we feel we have no choice but to exercise constant vigilance.

Please keep sending any info our way and we’ll keep posting it for everyone to see. 
Thanks for supporting local businesses,

Writers Read Deadline is Friday, Jan. 20: Hemingway Awaits!

Posted on by North Coast BBQ

Submitted By: nmccarthy1276@gmail.com – Click to email about this post
It’s time to polish those entries for the Writers Read Celebration sponsored by the Cannon Beach Library. The deadline is Friday, Jan. 20.
Here’s the original news release and flyer for the event:
Suppose novelist Ernest Hemingway arrived at the Oregon coast and wanted to write about his experience in a maximum of 600 words. What would he write?
This year’s Writers Read Celebration, sponsored by the Cannon Beach Library, asks that question with the theme, “Hemingway at the beach: What Would He Say?”
Writers of all ages from all areas are invited to consider how or what Hemingway would say while at the beach. All written formats will be considered (essay, story, poetry, haiku, script, etc.) Authors are limited to three entries with a 600-word maximum per entry. The deadline for submissions is Jan. 20.
A panel of volunteer judges will select 10 to 12 works to be read by their authors either in person or online during the celebration March 10 in the library.
Hemingway wrote about his experiences using as few words as possible, and his novels and short stories have become classics. The Writers Read Celebration offers an opportunity to have fun with this writing style in any form; the piece can be serious, whimsical, tongue-in-cheek or thoughtful.
Submissions will be accepted by email at info@cannonbeachlibrary.org) or by mail (P.O. Box 486 Cannon Beach, OR 97110), though email is preferred.
Submissions should be in Word or PDF format and include a cover letter with the writer’s name, email and phone number. Please do not include the author’s name or contact information on the entry
document so authors remain anonymous during the judging process.
The NW Authors Series Committee sponsors monthly author presentations and other events at the Cannon Beach Library. This is the fifth year of the Writers Read Celebration. Previous themes were: “Life on the North Coast,” “The View from the North Coast,” “Pandemic” and “Recovery?.” Writers Read Celebrations on Zoom from 2022 and 2021 are available for viewing on Cannon Beach Library’s website.

Author Liz Prato to Discuss Generation X at Cannon Beach Library

Posted on by North Coast BBQ

Submitted By: nmccarthy1276@gmail.com – Click to email about this post
Northwest author Liz Prato is from Generation X, that population born between 1965 and 1980. It’s a generation, she says in her book, “Kids in America: A Gen X Reckoning,” that received many labels.

“We were called latchkey cynical lazy sarcastic flighty disaffected alienated easily-distracted late blooming self-involved aimless apathetic skeptical pessimistic self-medicating impatient angry uncommitted won’t-grow-up purposeless unreliable slackers,” Prato writes.

Gen X also was the last generation to live without fear of being gunned down in school, she notes.

Prato will discuss her book at 2 p.m. Saturday, Jan. 21 in the Cannon Beach Library. The free talk is part of the library’s NW Authors Series.

This is a hybrid event, available in person at the library or online via the library’s website: cannonbeachlibrary.org (click the banner at the top of the page). Masks are required at the author’s request.

Prato’s writings cleverly blend memoir and cultural critique and have been described as poetic, vivid and compelling. Her previous book, “Volcanoes, Palm Trees, and Privilege: Essays on Hawai‘i” was named a “top summer travel read” by the New York Times and was a finalist for the Oregon Book Award.

She is the author of the short story collection “Baby’s on Fire”; her stories and essays have appeared in dozens of literary journals and magazines.

Prato teaches writing, has guest lectured at several workshops and conferences, and is the
editor at large for Forest Avenue Press. She lives in Portland, and enjoys small presses, indie bookstores, community and palm trees.
