Violin & Cello Concert on the River this Saturday!

Submitted By: revolutionginger@gmail.com – Click to email about this post
The final concert of the Communitea Nonprofit summer series is happening this Saturday, Sept. 2nd from 5-7pm at North Fork 53.

Get tickets here
www.northfork53.com/events/lepard-string-duo-riverfront-concert-sept-2nd?p

The Communitea Nonprofit Board has done an amazing job with the concerts this summer and they have all sold out in advance.

So I wanted to give you a heads up that a handful of tickets are still available for one of my favorite shows – the very duo that kicked off the “covid safe concerts” idea two summers ago.

Justin and his wife Alexis are a cello and violin duet from LA and they travel in the summer to escape the heat and play lots of little shows in the PNW.

They are both incredibly talented and though classically trained, they spice up their performances with folk, pop and jazz tunes. Justin even does a mean Bohemian Rhapsody solo cover on his cello!

I hope you can come help us ring out the summer in style this Saturday night!

The Power of Now, a discussion.

Submitted By: Brickstonebones@gmail.com – Click to email about this post
Hi, My name is Jared. I live in Nehalem.

Im motivated to start an ‘informal’ group that shares an interest in discussing the book; “The Power of Now” by Eckhart Tolle.

There is a lot to unpack here, and I think it would be fun to get together once a week, or month, and discuss a chapter at a time type of thing.

“When, where, and how” are all up for discussion.

This will not be rigid, it will be small in size, and only requires an open mind and a desire to live more fully in the moment. Readers of all levels welcome.

The purpose is to engage in discussion about living consciously in the present moment.

Please Email Me to help me get this off the ground.

Thanks.
Jared

Native Plant Sale with Aldervale Natives
September 2nd 10am -4pm

If you have not met Hope you need to. So come on by September 2nd from 10-4 and ask her all of the questions and buy plants from her!

Late summer/fall are ideal times to plant trees, shrubs, groundcovers, and grasses in the Pacific Northwest. The sale will include PNW plants for both sandy, salty, summer drought conditions and shadier spots. Sun and sand tolerant include: Manzanita, Wax myrtle, a low growing Ceonanthus, Shore pine and Dune tansy and others. Shade loving plants include Vine maple, Wild ginger, Oregon boxwood, and Devil’s club.

Native plant seed packets will also be available.

A list of available plants can be found at their website aldervale.net

Let’s talk

Submitted By: codger817@gmail.com – Click to email about this post
Tired of angry, divisive politics? Let’s try this, getting together for civil conversations about the things that matter to us. I’m looking for “reds”, “blues” and “in-betweens”. This week we plan to wrap up our discussion about ranked choice voting and open primaries. (on the ballot next year) Maybe go on to “intellectual humility”, but maybe you would like a better subject. Ground rules are very simple. (1.) Everybody brings their best manners. (2.) Nobody talks for more than 4 minutes at a stretch. (3.) Nobody comes to win an argument or change anybody’s mind. (4.) Listening is more important than talking. Zoom meetings Friday’s at 9 AM and/or Saturday’s. at 10AM Friday, 9AM Invite : us06web.zoom.us/j/82147366055?pwd=VTU1UWVzYnUxOC8zWE1qRUkxRUJhUT09 Saturday 10AM Invite us06web.zoom.us/j/83271599024?pwd=TTg5dUtydk1McTFpd21nYTNDaFdBZz09 For more information contact Jim Heffernan at jheffernan@braverangels.org or at codger817@gmail.com
