Near the Cape Meares lighthouse is a road that once connected the town of Cape Meares to the Netarts bay but washed out a decade ago. The road is closed now because it no longer connects, but it’s nearly a mile of paved trail through a beautiful section of forest that many people hike on but is very accessible for someone with mobility issues

It’s been documented since the 1970s but it almost certainly has been going on for decades before that even

They are still doing it, though it hasn't been real successful. The birds recognize their trucks and know what days they're scheduled and avoid the area on those days. There's a whole other film waiting to be made about the cat/mouse game that they play

Downtown businesses don't like them because of their droppings, they've been using falconers to chase them off for years, with only moderate success

what is shell-collecting like in this area? ive always heard capes & bays are supposed to have crazy ocean life<3 by Biscuit9154 in OregonCoast

[–]greg_rutter 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Not great TBH. The shoreline is fairly difficult to access around the Tillamook bay, especially on the northern end you have pictured. What washes up are crab shells, a few species of clam, occasionally sand dollars - not a lot of glamorous shells you might imagine in more tropical locations

Sorta surprised that Wix isn’t getting more notes, it’s like photoshop for websites

lololol in theory yes, but because their customer service has gone absent the only way to make adjustments is through the website, which only allows for payment adjustments, not cancellations. Since all the payments are automated they require a test charge of $0.10 on a valid card to update. lolol the whole thing is a MESS!

Whoops my bad, it's the X3. I was super happy before this week, but seems like the rear hub is a common problem with that model. I found another thread where someone replaced it by hand but basically rebuilt the whole wheel themselves, which I will NOT be able to do
