What do these things have in common?

Q: What do these things have in common?
A: Planning & Preparing, of course!

Having had all these experiences in my life, I suppose I can say that planning & preparing are rooted in my nature. I’m coming up on 19 yrs. of living here. In December 2007, my first winter, the hurricane hit. No power for days. Thankfully water was still available.

We experience many weather events here on the coast and there’s the potential for a major earthquake / tsunami. I volunteer with EVCNB & CERT because planning-preparedness are an important aspect of my life. I teach the WaSH (water-sanitation-hygiene) class to help my community to think about what they will do to care for themselves, to plan strategies, to begin processes for preparedness.

I invite you to attend a WaSH class. It’s 2 1/2hrs on a Saturday 10am to 12:30pm. There’s a $20 registration fee per household – (registration & laminated info pages).
Refer to the attached poster for class dates.

Don’t hesitate to contact me at <wash@evcnb.org> with question.

Timeless Wisdom

Submitted By: babbles@nehalemtel.net – Click to email about this post
to the BBQ readership:

Mahatma Gandhi’s Seven Social Sins, published in his Young India newspaper in 1925, are behaviors he believed would destroy society by undermining moral, ethical, and human values. They are:
1. wealth without work,
2. pleasure without conscience.
3. knowledge without character.
4. commerce without morality.
5. science without humanity.
6. religion without sacrifice.
7. politics without principle.

IS THIS IS NOT WHAT’S HAPPENING TODAY OUR COUNTRY? ARE NOT MORAL, ETHICAL AND HUMAN VALUES BEING DESTROYED?

we need instead, the following:
1. wealth WITH work.
2. pleasure WITH conscience.
3. knowledge WITH character.
4. commerce WITH morality.
5. science WITH humanity.
6. religion WITH sacrifice.
7. politics WITH principle.

these principles serve as a timeless guide for maintaining a just and sustainable society. let us elect leaders who will follow the teachings of Mahatma Ghandi. be sure to VOTE in every election.

It’s time to put your pen down, take one last glance, and kiss your entry to the Writers Read Celebration good-bye.

I have been thinking about ending my Prime membership as a economic protest and actually just did it thanks to Lydia’s post.  The suggested month long boycott begins today.  Since money is all to those in power, maybe this will touch them.

North County Resistance This Week and Next

Submitted By: pattyrinehart@nehalemtel.net – Click to email about this post
The North County Resistance proudly identifies as a group of peaceful protesters, dedicated to expressing our concerns while respecting the city and its residents.

We believe that voicing our opinions is essential, but it must be done in a manner that upholds the values of our community. Our actions are guided by a commitment to nonviolence and consideration for everyone around us.

Our group makes it a priority to honor the city’s guidelines and demonstrate thoughtfulness toward local businesses and neighbors. We strive to foster goodwill and maintain positive relationships throughout our activities, ensuring that our message is heard without causing disruption or harm.

We extend our gratitude to the City of Nehalem for the use of their parking lot for our protest activities. It is important to us that our presence does not disrupt or interfere with the businesses located in Nehalem. In this spirit, we kindly ask all participants to avoid congregating near local businesses and to ensure that the flow of customers and operations remains uninterrupted.

Specifically, we request that protesters do not block the entrances or exits of the coffee shop across the street from our gathering location. Additionally, we ask everyone to be mindful not to visually obstruct the sign for the business situated to the north and across the street. It is also worth noting that the honking of horns heard during our demonstration is initiated by passing drivers and is not orchestrated by our group. Our intention is to foster good relationships with our neighbors in the community.
We encourage everyone to consider the perspective of local business owners, who face challenges during the winter months. Supporting their ability to attract customers is important to us, as we all share the goal of seeing Nehalem businesses thrive.

On Saturday, January 31, Nehalem became the site of a remarkable demonstration, as more than 100 individuals came together, lining the sidewalks in a unified and peaceful assembly. The atmosphere was striking, with participants standing together to protest recent actions taken by the government. This collective effort reflected deep concern over several urgent issues impacting the United States of America.

Protesters raised voices against the government’s role in contributing to harm and loss of life and expressed strong opposition to the detention of citizens without just cause. There was also significant anxiety about the climate of fear that has led many people to feel confined to their homes. Furthermore, demonstrators objected to the government’s apparent reliance on individuals perceived as bigots and brainwashers. The event served as a powerful statement, showcasing the community’s widespread unease and their unified call for meaningful change.
We are a group of people, mainly locals, but also joined by people from here and there, in county and out of county, in state and out of state. Many of us are old and we’ve been joined by more younger people every week. We thank each one of you. We will continue to peacefully protest and hope you will join us! We will see you again next Saturday.

Best,
Patty

Another response to Fed Killings

Submitted By: barbaraandchuck@nehalemtel.net – Click to email about this post
Thank you Jeremiah for a succinct rebuttal to stayhuman@tutamail.com’s post on the bbq: www.northcoastbbq.com/2026/01/30/fed-killings/

(Jeremiah’s post is at www.northcoastbbq.com/2026/01/31/fed-killings-fact-checking-and-some-fury/)

I would like to add a few thoughts.

In his post, stayhuman@tutamail.com says “TEAM RED VS TEAM BLUE needs to end.” Yet he also goes on to say “My main problem with the left, and why I will NOT be joining the protestors along HWY 101 in Nehalem, is the left thinks Team Blue is ALWAYS RIGHT, and they as a whole tend to be extremely self-righteous about it, even as they traumatized our children with mandatory masks at school for months – just one example I can highlight.”

So, though he wants to end “teams” he is still making grand, insulting assumptions about the beliefs of the people who are protesting. Has he talked to them? How can he know what they think and feel? How can he assume to know them and why they stand on the street corner championing democracy? Has he even read the thoughtful responses to why they are there as posted on the bbq? There have been a couple of posts, here is one: www.northcoastbbq.com/?s=Nehalem+protest

How is this doing away with teams? We are still the “other” to him. Yes, I have stood on those corners and will do so again. It is my constitutional right. I am there to stand up for democracy and EVERYONE’S right to a safe place in our community where everyone eats, everyone has a decent place to live, everyone gets good health care and education, everyone has access to jobs that actually pay a living wage and where everyone can share their unique talents and be themselves.

stayhuman@tutamail.com, please stop labeling and lumping a whole group of people with your made- up description. We can’t get rid of teams if we don’t stop “othering” those who think differently.

I do agree with him that it is the rich (mostly white men) who are doing everything they can to make themselves richer at the expense of the majority of us who are not rich, white or men. After all it was how our country was founded—by rich, white men. They committed genocide on the Native Americans, enslaved Africans and their descendants, and treated them and women as property. Anyone who didn’t fit the acceptable mold was in danger if they stepped too far out of their bounds.

And they also gave a structure to address those ills—the Bill of Rights, the Constitution and the three branches of government—legislative, executive, and judicial, which possess specific powers to limit, monitor, and check the actions of the others.

That system is in great peril by this administration, led by a convicted criminal, whose behavior is atrocious and morally corrupt. They are doing all they can to dismantle the democracy we have enjoyed for over 200 years. No other administration has come close to this travesty.

One day I believe and trust that the rich will no longer be in control. (Call me a dreamer, I hope you join me.) I agree with laniciaduke@gmail.com, “It’s time for us to begin sowing in love so we can begin reaping in love.” She is hosting a Community Gathering of Love on Valentine’s Day at the White Clover Grange at 10:00am.
