Selling one fabulous ‘outsider art’ aluminum row boat. I have the brackets for the oars, but not the oars. We used it like a canoe, which I highly recommend for those who like to turn heads! It has two wheels for easy land use, (once were four) and a place in the back to attach a motor, if lazy.
$200
Also available
one hammock rack (sans hammock)
When trees become unavailable, or your landlord is really specific about holes in the deck posts, this is your go to choice! Will need extra long style hammock, or sturdy rope tying skills.

GOOD NEWS: There are lots of baby trees. They need homes ASAP.

These 12″+ babes can be potted, or planted. Plan to water them during dry spells for a couple of years.

Trees are leftover donations from Natural Resource Conservation Services (NRCS).

“The best time to plant a tree was 25 years ago, the second best is today.”

They can be found at the bottom of steps to Pauseful Massage & Botanicals. Take some for you, & pass some on to friends.

Keep them moist and out of direct sun until you pot or plant them.

What a dream,
Christina

Last try – still need a Bali shade replacement for a big window!

Posted on by North Coast BBQ

Submitted By: jwmerc@gmail.com – Click to email about this post
Here’s the re-cap:
I am needing to replace the BALI blind arrangement in this window. Ideally it would be EXACTLY the same (103 inch headrail – “two-on-one” design – the individual shades are 61-1/2 tall and 50-1/2 wide – color is an off-white now as they have been up about three years) – but it would be OK to have the same length headrail with just ONE long shade.
I have turned over every reasonable stone to buy a brand-new arrangement – but in the event someone knows where there is a used one – OR – a terrific outlet for dated shades like this (it still has to be Bali)
I would like to know – the sooner the better…THANKS! jw

Eileen Hallee
May 20, 1944 – March 27, 2022

Former Manzanita resident Lois Eileen Hallee died March 27, 2022, at age 77 in the presence of family at a care center in Portland.

Born May 20, 1944, Eileen was well-known for her goal of having a Manzanita bush planted on every lot along Manzanita Avenue. Another of her worthy goals was seeing that stray cats were spayed or neutered.

Eileen spent much of her life taking care of Tom, her marathon-running, physician husband. In doing so, she attended hundreds of runs around the country and across the globe.

A service will be held in Eileen’s honor Saturday, May 7, from 2 to 4 p.m. at Sunset Hills Memorial Park in Portland.

Memories and expressions of sympathy may be shared with the family at www.dignitymemorial.com/obituaries/portland-or/lois-hallee-10666946

Eileen’s family has requested friends pursue having a bench and accompanying Manzanita bush installed at an appropriate place in the City of Manzanita. Persons interested in helping with that effort are asked to contact Paula Peek at peek.paula1@gmail.com.

Karl Marlantes to Discuss His Novels at Coaster Theatre Saturday

Posted on by North Coast BBQ

Submitted By: nmccarthy1276@gmail.com – Click to email about this post
North Coast native and popular author Karl Marlantes will discuss his novels, “Deep River” and “Matterhorn” during a presentation sponsored by the Cannon Beach Library.
The in-person presentation will be at 2 p.m. Saturday, May 7, in the Coaster Theatre Playhouse, 108 N. Hemlock St. Admission is free. Proof of Covid vaccination is required. Masks are optional.
Born in Astoria, Marlantes grew up in Seaside and attended Seaside High School, where he was student body president. Marlantes also attended Yale University. He was awarded a Rhodes Scholarship at Oxford University and earned a master’s degree.
His first book, “Matterhorn: A Novel of the Vietnam War,” written in 2010, was called by the New York Times “one of the most profound and devastating novels ever to come out of Vietnam– or any war.”
It is based on Marlantes’ combat experience as an infantry officer with the 1st Battalion of the U.S. Marines from 1968 to 1969. He was awarded the Navy Cross for leading an assault on a hilltop bunker complex, which is at the core of “Matterhorn.”
Marlantes also received a Bronze Star, two Navy commendation medals for valor, two Purple Hearts and 10 Air Medals.
His second book, a memoir published in 2011, was “What It Is Like to Go to War.” It is about his return as a civilian and life as a Vietnam War veteran.
In 2019, Marlantes turned in a different direction with his novel, “Deep River,” about the logging industry, canneries and labor organizations on the Columbia River in Oregon and Washington in the early 20th century.
The book follows a Finnish family that leaves Finland and makes its way to Astoria and Southwest Washington, much like Marlantes’ grandparents did when they left their homelands.
Marlantes’ presentation is sponsored by the NW Authors Series, which welcomes authors monthly from September to May and offers the Writers Read Celebration for local writers.

Nehalem Bay Garden Club Plant Sale this weekend May 7-8

Posted on by North Coast BBQ

Submitted By: barbaraandchuck@nehalemtel.net – Click to email about this post
There are some new additions to the annual Nehalem Bay Garden Club’s plant sale.

A raffle for a iRobot Vacuum Model 805 Roomba, complete with all the paperwork in the cardboard tray it came in. Tickets are $5 each or 6 for $20.

River City Flower Farm will be selling their dried flower arrangements and wreaths as well as dahlia bulbs. Please note that they will only be there on Saturday.

There will be gifts for Mom, including garden themed cards handmade by Garden Club members.

The sale will be held this weekend: Saturday, May 7th from 9-4 and Sunday, May 8th from 10 to noon. Location of the sale is 43080 Northfork Rd, Nehalem at the junction of Hwy 53 and Northfork Rd. Look for the horse sculpture!

And don’t forget we have TOMATOES! About 600 gallon pots of at least 19 varieties of tomatoes will be available including heirloom, cherry, grape, roma and beefsteak types among others. These varieties were specifically chosen by experienced members because they are proven performers in our coastal climate.

Besides tomatoes, club members have started other vegetables from seed so gardener’s plant selections will be available from a local source. Also on offering will be the club’s usual annuals, perennials, natives, herbs, succulents, shrubs, and trees.

Club members want to share their appreciation to the folks at the Lower Nehalem Community Trust. Since Alder Creek Farm is not having a plant sale this year, due to a gap in garden management resources, they graciously made their hoop house available for the Club’s use. It is currently stocked with the tomatoes growing big and lush in the heat and light of the hoop house.

Nehalem Bay Garden Club donates proceeds from the sale to local organizations that share the Club’s mission. Recently the focus for these grants has been on food security. Past recipients include North County Food Bank, Nehalem Bay United Methodist Church for their food programs, Food Roots, Hoffman Gardens, Alder Creek Farm, Nehalem Elementary Garden Program, and the mural at Nehalem City Park.

Vote Yes for Measure 29-164 Support our Libraries

Posted on by North Coast BBQ

Submitted By: allanmadeline@aol.com – Click to email about this post
The North Tillamook Library in Manzanita is one of the beauties of the area that first attracted us to Manzanita. Years later when I retired, I made my first volunteer commitment to the library. Libraries are the heart and soul of communities and are reflective of the community the serve.
Our Library serves the three villages and the surrounding rural areas in north County. It makes available books, movies, free WiFi, computer and printer access, assistance in finding resources, the next great read and the use of free community space and programs. With your free library card, you also have access to digital books, movies, magazines, out reach programs and the Bookmobile. It continued to safely provide these services during COVID restrictions.
The Library system in Tillamook County receives 95% of its operating support from a 5-year levy which expires June 2022. Measure 29-164, on the May ballot, will renew the operating levy for another 5 years. The current rate of 65 cents per $1000 assessed value will be the same for the next 5 years. The libraries are a widely recognized asset by the people who live here.
Failure of the levy will mean the loss of libraries and the programs they provide. Programs such as literacy for preschoolers, summer reading activities designed to sustain readers between school years and online homework and tutoring services. The Bookmobile brings books to residents of nursing homes and rural families. Libraries provide resources for job seekers including access to computers, assistance and instruction for seeking employment.
I urge you to join us in voting YES for Libraries by voting YES for Measure 29-164, keep open our Library in Manzanita, as well as those in Rockaway Beach, Garibaldi, Bay City, Pacific City and Tillamook. Thank you.

Kayak Netarts Bay Excursions: Bay Entrance and Inner Bay Trips with Friends of Netarts Bay WEBS and Kayak Tillamook County Naturalists
May 7, 2022

Our popular kayak trips are back! We are offering a tour for beginners and a tour of the inner bay on May 7th. Friends of Netarts Bay WEBS interpreters and Kayak Tillamook County Naturalists will guide our exploration of this diverse marine habitat.

Bay Entrance: Novice Kayak Tour
This tour is designed for beginning kayakers, taking advantage of the last outgoing tides. Participants will meander through the bay while making stops to appreciate the variety of animals and algae within the bay. All equipment will be provided.

Register: www.eventbrite.com/e/kayak-netarts-bay-bay-entrance-novice-spot-request-form-tickets-328038099787?utm-campaign=social&utm-content=attendeeshare&utm-medium=discovery&utm-term=listing&utm-source=cp&a…

Restrictions: Tweens and older are free to join this trip. People with serious medical conditions should exercise caution in joining. Anyone under 90 lbs or over 230 lbs should notify us during registration to ensure we have the proper gear.

Where: Netarts Bay area. Sign up for the specific location!

Cost: There is no charge for this event. Tax-exempt donations to Netarts Bay WEBS to enable programs like this are highly encouraged, but not required.

Inner Bay: Intermediate Kayak Tour
The journey to see the abundant marine life, aquatic plants, and algae within Netarts Bay is no easy float. While this adventure is full of wonder, it isn’t for the timid! On the return trip, we will be paddling against both an incoming tidal current and a Northwest headwind. If you are up for a challenge, this is the trip for you.

The first half of this trip takes advantage of an incoming tide, flushing participants far up into the inner bay toward our favorite destinations. Because the NOAA tides predictions are only predictions, participants should be prepared for anything. For instance, the journey may involve short portages and using teamwork to carry the kayaks with us. All equipment will be provided.

Register: www.eventbrite.com/e/kayak-netarts-bay-inner-bay-tour-intermediate-spot-request-form-tickets-328024057787?utm-campaign=social&utm-content=attendeeshare&utm-medium=discovery&utm-term=listing&utm-sou…

Restrictions: Children under 16 yrs. and people with serious medical conditions are not allowed on this trip. Anyone under 90 lbs. or over 230 lbs. should notify us during registration to ensure we have the proper gear.

Where: Netarts Bay area. Sign up for the specific location!

Cost: No charge. Tax-exempt donations to Netarts Bay WEBS to enable programs like this are highly encouraged, but not required.

This is an Explore Nature co-hosted event. Explore Nature Partnership offers a series of meaningful nature-based experiences highlighting the unique beauty of Tillamook County and the work being done to preserve the area’s natural resources and natural resource-based economy.
