$400.
Authenticated/verified at purchase; I am the second owner.
Brown-greenish-bronze with natural leather handles, rectangle base. Includes original storage bag and booklet (in several languages).
Width at zipper: 14.5″. Zipper works great, no issues. Some visible wear on the pull and hardware.
Base: 8.75 x 7.25″.
Only slight wear on bag, no stains or tears inside (brown sturdy cloth, one large, one small pocket). Handles are soft and comfortable.
It’s a really practical size, and deceptively holds a lot easily. It has a substantial feel and weight.
I hope someone will love it!
I don’t do emails and texting.

When despair for the world grows in me
and I wake in the night at the least sound
in fear of what my life and my children’s lives may be,
I go and lie down where the wood drake
rests in his beauty on the water, and the great heron feeds.
I come into the peace of wild things
who do not tax their lives with forethought
of grief. I come into the presence of still water.
And I feel above me the day-blind stars
waiting with their light. For a time
I rest in the grace of the world, and am free.
~ Wendell Berry

Noon ’till the last crumb!
For Democratic presidential and congressional contenders: Trump’s ballroom will be torn down and the East Wing of the White House will be rebuilt.
Personally I’d add: Trump’s Mar-a-Lago-style patio will be removed and Jackie Kennedy’s Rose Garden restored.

Whatcha got?
Some clothing with a tear, a toaster that needs repair?
A lamp that won’t light, or a kitchenaid mixer that’s given up the fight?
Maybe we can help!

Author Jamie Mustard will join me in a conversation about his newest book
CHILD X: A MEMOIR OF SLAVERY, POVERTY, CELEBRITY, AND SCIENTOLOGY.
Jamie Mustard was born into one of the most influential fringe movements in the 1970s: Scientology.
Raised on a mythos of spaceships and made to believe his life’s purpose was to help save the world, he was determined to survive not only neglect but also the physical and psychological damage caused by extreme poverty and illiteracy.
“A vivid, compelling and heartrending memoir.” —Booklist
“Evocative . . . a powerful memoir that takes us down the darkest corridors of Scientology.” —Kirkus Reviews

Over the past 250 years, our nation has undergone significant transformations. While we have made considerable progress, recent developments raise serious concerns about the direction in which our democracy is heading. The following issues reflect some of the challenges we are currently facing:
Current Challenges Facing Our Nation
• Citizens Arrested: Increasingly, our own citizens are being arrested, raising questions about civil liberties and justice.
• Family Terrorization: Entire families, including children, are being terrorized, which undermines the foundational values of safety and security in our society.
• Education System Decline: The education system is being diminished, leaving future generations at a disadvantage.
• Court System Concerns: Our courts are experiencing embarrassing setbacks, casting doubt on the fairness and reliability of our judicial processes.
• Reductions in Food Assistance: There are cuts to programs that feed children, families, and seniors, increasing vulnerability among the most at-risk populations.
• Veterans Benefits Cut: Benefits for veterans are being reduced, despite their service and sacrifice.
• Climate Change Ignored: The threat of climate change is not being addressed with the urgency it deserves.
• Disrespectful Presidential Rhetoric: Our president has made derogatory remarks toward women reporters and immigrants, using language like “piggy,” “filthy,” “dirty,” “disgusting,” and “ridden with crime.” Such language fosters division and undermines respect.
• Immigration Agent Misconduct: Immigration agents have detained and mistreated U.S. citizens, raising concerns about due process and human rights.
• Healthcare Crisis: The American healthcare system is approaching a critical point, with many fearing a disaster if changes are not made.
A Call to Action
This dismal list is only a brief snapshot of what is happening on a daily basis in our country. However, it is crucial that we do not lose hope or give up the fight to restore our government to its democratic values. Collective action and persistent advocacy are essential for change.
Join the Movement
We invite you to join the North Coast Resistance group. We hold protests every Saturday in Nehalem from noon to 2 PM and need your support. Whether you choose to participate in person with raingear, boots, gloves, and signs, or simply drive by, honk your horn, and wave, your support is invaluable.
