Anyone have an idea of what christmas tree prices are looking like this year?

The title says it all! After seeing the post about the Mill Plain Taco Bell it got me nostalgic to see more pictures of that area from the 80s and 90s. Does anyone have an album they want to share?

Just heard a super loud boom near River Maiden Coffee and heard a loud boom. Does anyone know what it was?

Anybody else remember the old building with the step down sun room? Taco King featured in the background is Muchas now. Such good memories.

Avoid if you value your travel time, the lights around there are out and the road blocked. I saw a big flash like a firework as a truck passed by, and the cables fell and were on the ground arcing. Called 911 around 7:15ish and as of posting it is completely closed and traffic redirected. Stay safe out there!

Anybody know of an Oregon Ducks rooter bar in the area? Looking for somewhere to watch the football games with other Duck fans.

• Ride Details: A relaxed pace of 10 MPH, perfect for enjoying the evening. It's a 3.6-mile route, taking about 20 minutes to reach PIR.
• What to Bring: Bikes, lights, warm clothing, and your holiday cheer. We'll have hand warmers to share, so you can stay cozy in the cold weather.
• Tickets: $16 per person – grab yours online before the event!

• Video Preview: https://youtu.be/Xdj_bPyyWBM?t=11

At PIR:

• We'll join other bike groups for an extra dose of holiday energy, music, and camaraderie. Look for the heart-shaped bike trailer (NakedHeartsPDX) for their extra blast of holiday music!
• Take a few laps around PIR (about 2miles a lap) to soak in the lights, sip on hot chocolate, and enjoy the festive atmosphere. Bring your holiday tunes to keep the vibes merry and bright!

Return Trip: We'll head back to Esther Short Park around 7:00 PM. Bonus warmup at Tap Union after.

Safety First:

• Ride at your own risk. We'll stop to assist if you experience any mechanical issues, so don't hesitate to let us know if you need help.

Join us for a fun, festive evening celebrating the season on two wheels!

Anyone know what’s going on? Drone overhead, multiple dogs, and an armed officer told us to get inside.

Wheres the best place to get monthly facials in the couve? Any info on pricing would be much appreciated too!

Hi all. I have recently moved here from Texas, and am missing my Sunday morning barbacoa and Big Red. As the holidays approach, I would love to feel comforted by some of my fav Mexican dishes without all the prep and cleanup! If y’all have any recommendations for businesses in this area or adjacent, please let me know!

Trying to locate some of the homeless camps, preferably ones that are moderately easy to get to, to bring winter supplies and food. Any help and info is greatly appreciated!

Is there a place other than Goodwill that accepts old clothes and toys?

Hello! I am in need of a medical marijuana card. Does anyone have advice or recommendations for a prescribing doctor or clinic? Prices would be helpful. I'm off of 164th and 18th. Thank you!

Hi all. i hope that im not breaking any of the rules with this post. I am getting married soon and i am having a lot of trouble finding an officiant. i am pretty poor so i wouldn't necessarily be able to pay anything. but im enlisting soon and really running out of time to get this all done. if someone could point me in a correct direction i would be very appreciative.

Looking for a unique, interesting vibe for dinner with my wife tonight. Not worried about the food quality but more about the experience. We are open to any types of food! Willing to go to Portland as well! Any recommendations are appreciated

I was surprised to see this exact kind of thing in a video from Montreal where nimby boomers are saying pretty much exactly what the locals are... and it would seem that everyone survived it when it went thru anyway. So as an interesting take on the post-streets-being-made-multi-user-friendly-apocalypse I thought it would post it for my fellow redditors as while it isn't directly related to Vancouver, it does touch on our similar local issue I've seen discussed a fair bit and so would be of interest:

Maybe a weird thought, are there any businesses or providers you feel are lacking in our area? Maybe something that just doesn't have a lot of quality options in our area etc.

What to do about a cat with kittens that you can't get close to on my street. They keep crossing the street, often with the mother and a kitten or two on one side waiting, while the rest are scared to cross because of traffic. They cross back and forth. The mama cat comes to my bird feed and water at times, to hunt and drink, so I refrain from feeding the birds. I can't afford to buy traps and I don't know how to keep them from getting run over. Who would even come save them? I don't even know where they actually stay.

Looking for an arborist to assess some big old growth trees in our backyard. Any suggestions? Thanks!

Not celebrating tonight, feel like having a few drinks.
