My wife has an extensive library and her current book shelves aren’t cutting it. She’d like to find floor to ceiling track shelves but with cool wood. That’s beyond me. Anyone have a suggestions?

ISO House Cleaner

Hi neighbors - I am trying to find a housekeeper to clean our house 1 or 2 times a month. We are very tidy, don't need help with dishes, sheets, laundry, or trash, just would like some help with floors, dusting, shower tiles, things that are hard to get to.

I have - no joke - probably reached out to 12-15 people/businesses. Pretty much everyone who has posted on Nextdoor or FB groups saying they are looking for cleaning work. I either never hear back or get ghosted after I set up a time with them.

I'm happy to pay whatever feels like a fair wage, I'm a proactive communicator and will respect boundaries.

Does anyone have any recs?

(I guess side note, has anyone experienced issues hiring individuals or companies for services like this, landscaping, etc.? I'm typically a very patient person but I'm getting kind of exhausted never hearing back from folks, especially if they've advertised that they're hoping for work and clients.)

Town today

Anyone else agree town felt incredibly depressing today? Something about going out today just felt off. Wondering if anyone else felt it.

Chipotle

I got the inside scoop! The building will be open for training employees next week and possibly more! Apparently it’s already on DoorDash as well.

When does our county start reporting voter statistics?

Hey everyone!

Do you know when our county will start posting results? I am curious to know the outcomes of some of these and of course want to know who the most popular presidential candidate is.

I was looking here:

Thanks!

Washington Trip With My Girlfriend

Was curious to see what me and my girl friend can do while being out in port Angeles for a day? We’re taking a 3 day trip to Washington state and our first stop is Port Angeles, she enjoys twilight so I wanted to see if there was anything related to that there? We also enjoy hiking , exploring , drinking and eating so if y’all have any recommendations, we’d love to read them !

Power Outages!

Lincoln High School lost power, anyone else? I live in the cherry hill neighborhood so I’m prepping for it. Does anyone have a little weather system that could tell me the real gust mph? My app says max gusts are 54!

Pumpkins anywhere?

I was wondering if anyone knows if there is still anywhere to buy large carving pumpkins? I had wanted to buy a big one for carving, but we got too busy and now that Halloween is over I'm not sure if there is anywhere to buy one. 😅

Glass recycling

Where is the closest place to recycle glass since the transfer stations stopped?

Glass is actually fully recyclable unlike plastic and paper so this is annoying.

Fantastic Halloween and trick or treating. Way to go PA! Special Thank you to residents of West PA. What a haul!

Amazing. New to the area and kept hearing cherry hill is the spot. Did the haunted trail and kinda missed DT they mean 5:00. Then we attempted to find cherry hill and ended up in West PA near S. I street and W 14th. What a happy accident. Folks could not have been nicer and happier to have treaters! So generous welcoming and kind. Wow.

Thank you for an amazing Halloween

Hello Wonderful people. I had posted a while back about my concerns moving my family to PA because we are black and the political climate. Most of the comments were very thoughtful.

I just wanted to say as a new member of this community that we are so happy to have made the move. I was uneasy taking my kids out on Halloween because we are so new and the presidential election has been getting heated. We were treated with nothing but kindness. My kids had amazing experiance.

Port Angeles is a beautiful place and the people here have been nothing but kind and welcomeing. I know the kindness will continue no matter what happens next week.

Is Chipotle open yet?

First off, Feliz Dia De Los Muertos! I know everyone had a good Halloween.Seems everyone in Port Angeles came by my house last night. I live in the Cherry Hill neighborhood. I bought 6 giant bags of chocolate from Costco, another 10 lbs of hard candy from Winco, and it was all gone by 7pm.

Driving to work this morning, I noticed the CHIPOTLE sign was lit on the building and the lights were on. I'm assuming they're still getting it ready.

Does anyone know when Chipotle will open?

Anybody else hear that?

Anybody hear that loud booming noise just now? My fiancé and I both heard it. Sounded like it might be a firework, but not too sure.

Astound Mobile experiences?

Anyone used Astound's mobile/cell service? How's the coverage in town, at popular national park sites, in wilderness areas?

They're running a pretty good promotion on the service right now that might convince me to stop sharing a phone plan with my family across the country... but I don't want to switch and find out the coverage is crap, obviously. Thanks for any pointers :)

Looking for prints of Devils Punchbowl

I finally got to take my boyfriend to the Devils Punchbowl, which has been one of my favorite places since I was a kid. Well he had it all planned and proposed to me! I couldn't find any prints in any of the local galleries and I just want to add a couple Pictures/paintings of the Punchbowl to our art wall. Looking for suggestions of local artists that I can get a painting or picture!

Visiting Port Angeles; Date Ideas?

Hello beautiful people of PA, I’m visiting your gorgeous town for the week and wanted to treat my gf to a fun and memorable night around the area. I’m open to any suggestions, including food, shows, bars etc. Cool romantic vibes are a plus.

Edit: Thank you all for the amazing suggestions. I have enough for several date days/evenings/nights over😂. Guess that just means I’ll be coming back again to see them all through.
