Any recommendations for visiting mom this coming week?

Hello fellow Port Angelinans (?) my beloved mother will be with me for the next coming week. Does anyone have any suggestions on events happening? I’ll definitely go on a hike or two with her. And probably head to Victoria for the weekend, but wonder if anyone knows any specific events coming up.

We will head out to forks and explore the Peninsula a bit.

She really likes flowers and nature and plants and horses and all kinds of outdoorsy stuff.

Fishing help for out of towner or meet to fish

Hi, I will be visit the area for a week in March from Pennsylvania. I don't want anyone to spot burn or try to steal any honey holes, I'm a nice lady I promise and wouldn't trash your spots. Just looking for areas I could try to target steelhead (I fish Erie but would love to catch a real one) but open to honestly any type of fishing. I'm down to meet a nice non creepy group of people as well I could fish with. I will be bringing gear with me but if anyone would like to meet up and spot a rod I will not complain because I'm scared to travel with my $200 plus gear

Mole removal?

Hey yall,

Anyone know any exterminators that help get rid of moles? I know you have to have a certain license now. I’ve used everything I could to get rid of these bastards but nothing is working. My yard is a mine field of hills.

And yes, I’ve tried driving them away. I originally didn’t want to kill them, but it’s way out of hand now.

I’ve called the Sequim mole patrol guy, but no answer.

Anyone have any insight?

TLDR single and ready to mingle

I know this has been beat like a dead horse, but other than the things that have been posted here, does anyone know of meetings or anything like that for late 20’s-30’s single people with their life together? I’m 28, own a house and a small business and am having a brutal time finding a partner that is looking for the same things. Yeah I want to go do sketchy stuff outdoors, and I want kids and a white picket fence? This is turning more into a rant than anything. Where’s the introverted-outdoorsy dating meets?

Work is becoming extremely fikle in this area and it's concerning.

Saw the other post about work on here from the other day and it is quite concerning. If you are in a position looking for entry level work. Its seeming more and more everyday like your only option is to become a CNA or nurse.

Just a concerned community member bringing up a concern 😀

Anyone have a trailer or anything to rent temporarily or rent to own. DESPERATE

Soooo I work in elwha casino and commute from lapush. I have been trying to find a place for months with limited income because my gf employer fired her as a manager for having hospital note and fighting us for unemployment even though she busted her back since summer for that restaurant. The apartment we lived in was under contract stipulation where if she got terminated we receive three day eviction while taking our rent and deposit . We fought with my tribe so hard on that and didn’t have time to find a place. Anyway long story short I can’t continue to do this drive. I get paid every 5th and 20th. Please send me and her in right direction.

Blackberry Cafe Closed?

I just noticed blackberry cafe in Joyce is permanently closed! I drive past every week and noticed they were closed, thoughts it was only for winter. Was bummed to see it's permanent. I enjoyed their burgers, and they're one of the only places to grab food in Joyce. Anyone know why they're closed permanently?

Places to look for employment other than indeed?

Title says it all, looking for a new job/career. Looking into getting into laborer work and general construction, or even equipment operating. I've checked indeed up and down and was wondering other sources to look for employment.

Catering in PA

Hi everyone! My fiancé and I are planning an elopement at Lake Crescent and are having a dinner celebration with 30 of our closest friends & family at his grandparent’s house in Port Angeles. I have been searching for catering options for a while, but I feel at a loss.

We’re looking for something slightly more elevated, but not too fancy or too casual. We were hoping to do artisan, wood-fired pizzas from Barhop, but they don’t cater. From what I’ve seen (on Google lol) there aren’t any other artisan pizzerias in the area that cater. There are some mobile pizza oven food trucks in Seattle, but they don’t travel out to Port Angeles.

I did also see Coyote BBQ caters, but I’m honestly not the biggest fan of bbq. The other catering options I’ve seen either don’t offer dinner or seem too fancy for the gathering.

With that said: any catering recommendations for PA? :)

Cold Water Swim Club

Hi!

Does anyone know if there is a group that meets regularly for cold water swims, perhaps in Lake Crescent? I'd love to start, but would rather join a group than make my own. Thanks!

State E-Bike rebate program, $300 or $1200 rebate at time of purchase.

My read is that anyone can get $300 off an e-bike but if you make under 80% of the mendian income for the county you live in which my bad search seems to say the median income for Clallam county is about $85,000 you can get $1200 off an e-bike. Which $1200 is about half the cost of a solid e-bike. You do have to buy it locally no mail order / shipping and it is one purchase per household address.

Seeking Assistance from a Port Angeles Resident for ADU Building Plans

Hi everyone,

I hope this message finds you well! I’m planning to build an ADU (Accessory Dwelling Unit) in Lakewood, WA, and recently learned that the City of Port Angeles offers free ADU building plans. Unfortunately, I’m not a resident, so I’m unable to access these plans myself.

I’m looking for a kind local resident who might be willing to request the plans on my behalf. These plans would be incredibly helpful for my project, and I’d be happy to explain more about how I plan to use them.

If you’re able to help or have any advice, please feel free to reach out! I greatly appreciate your time and consideration.

Thank you in advance!

Dating in Rural Areas: A Slow Descent Into Madness

Alright, here’s the situation: I’m (45M) newish to the area, trying to navigate online dating in good faith, and let me tell you, it’s a trainwreck. You fire up an app, swipe a little, and what do you get? The same handful of people from last week, the week before, and the week before… circling the drain with me in solidarity. It’s like Groundhog Day but somehow more depressing.

Obviously the dating pool is gonna be small in a rural community. But even when you do match with someone, it’s not like they live down the street. No, they’re 50 miles away, at least one ferry plus a drive, and by the time you figure out the logistics of meeting up, you’re already exhausted and questioning your life choices.

And let’s talk about the stakes here. You go on a date, and suddenly the whole town knows. You think you’re just grabbing a coffee, but by Monday, Karen from the post office is asking you how it went. God forbid it doesn’t work out, because now you’ve got to dodge them at every community event for the next six months.

I just feel like the whole thing’s rigged against you when you live out in the boonies. I do get out several times a week for social and community events, and I’ve made some friends along the way but no sparks. If you’re in the same boat, let me know—misery loves company, right? Or, better yet, if you’ve somehow managed to crack the code on rural dating, share the secret before I completely lose it and agree to a date with Janet from Oak Harbor. Jeezus that’s a three hour round trip minimum just for a date! Fugg that
