It was like a scene from another time; fire moved quickly from one building to the next. It didn't even spare the fire station itself. I know one thing, the fire had to be bad, really bad... because the Nestucca Rural Fire District is the best in the west; a band of volunteers as good as any, maybe better. http://salem-news.com/articles/may292010/cloverdale-fire-tk.php http://salem-news.com/articles/may292010/cloverdale-fire-tk.php Sat, 29 May 2010 14:34:00 PDT The Coast Guard, Rockaway Beach, Oregon Police and Fire, the Tillamook Sheriff's department, Nehalem Fire and Tillamook County EMS responded to a report of six people in distress after the 21-foot boat they were in capsized at the entrance to Nehalem Bay, Monday.

It was sixty five years ago on this date, that this four-engine plane and her crew of 10 U.S. Army aviators were lost in the fog, flying close to the ocean as they tried to find a landmark. The sole survivor of the crash, 2nd Lt. Wilbur Perez, was the plane's bombardier. http://salem-news.com/articles/august022008/perez_doc_8-2-08.php http://salem-news.com/articles/august022008/perez_doc_8-2-08.php Sat, 02 Aug 2008 03:04:00 PDT A public health advisory was issued Wednesday due to higher-than-normal levels of bacteria in ocean waters at Twin Rocks beach in Tillamook County.
