This amount seems very unreasonable to me. That’s 10% of my rent. 5% seems much more reasonable. I’ve lived here for 2 years and have never been late with rent but somehow I totally spaced making my payment until 5 days after rent was due.

Always looking to try new places, thank you.

It's time to admit lawn care is not my strength. I need regular front yard and garden maintenance and special projects for backyard cleanup and pruning. I'm looking for a company that uses electric or battery powered equipment and eco-friendly products.

Shout-out to Lawn Be Gone for reducing the amount of grass to be maintained, but I still need help :)

Anyone have information on where to find some local farm fresh eggs?

Hey there!

New to the Eugene area and have been having a hard time finding a place to rent out, was traveling but I've been off the road for a couple months now and getting some roots here. Just looking to pay rent somewhere with some cool, respectful people and have more of a space of my own than I got currently lol

Also looking for people to jam with or start a music project! I do solo gigs occasionally but miss playing with a group. I'm a singer/guitarist mainly into folk/blues/alt/punk but I enjoy playing guitar for any projects or whatever (rap, noise, etc.)

I'd love drag brunch or bingo or some kind of show.

Anyone aware of bars in Eugene that back either the Minnesota Vikings or the Detroit Lions? I'd like to watch the game that's on tonight after 5PM. If it's dog friendly, that's a bonus. My boys been couped up too long.

New ideas please! I have old ideas: so, Not defy Not get air Not a pool Not the arcade/bowling (at valley river) Thank you!

Recently my physical health has greatly diminished and I find myself unable to do my previous job. Does anyone know of any companies hiring remote workers or even office jobs that aren’t physically intensive in the area? I’m not really sure what to do as I’m still a fairly young adult and I don’t really want to be on disability for the rest of my life from such a young age. Any help is appreciated :)

Where can I find kolaches? I’m craving one so bad back at home they had them at every donut shop. They only sell donuts here :( Edit: I’m talking about the pigs and blanket kolache not the sweet kolache

sorry if this has already been asked, but i haven’t been able to find an answer as to why eugene is so smelly recently? is it sewer flooding due to the rain or something else?

My husband picked up a 1950 Southbend metal lathe. He's a welder and has been fabricating parts for tractor restorations. The classes at LCC are geared toward modern machines. Anybody out there in to old school belt driven lathes?

Theater 1 at the Art House is the older probably-former-churchy space on your right as you enter, past the ticket sales desk, right? And Theater 2 is the one on the other side of the courtyard? Google ain't helping me.

I scheduled an appointment with Safeway for tomorrow but can’t find anything about the cost without insurance anywhere. Worried the Covid booster is going to be out of my price range but I have a baby to meet!!

Hi all, me and my partner currently rent together in Eugene and are looking at others apartments to rent from in the summer.

Westmoreland Village is on our list of ones to check out more in depth, and I was curious if anyone here has experience renting there.

I currently have Jennings as my property manager and I’ve heard mixed reviews on them.

Someone told me they did and that it’s not as good now but I’ve heard nothing of the sort. Tell me it isn’t true!

Did you managed to sell the stocks at the peak and if so, did that make you rich?

I am curious to hear stories from the ex employees.

Saw a post asking about overhyped restaurants here’s a few I think are worth it. I’m sure some might disagree but here’s what I got:

1) Los Dos Hermanos Taqueria. Good food, I love their burritos they are big and a good price (around ~$12) I usually go for “The Oregon” burrito. Also it’s usually clean inside, good vibes all around. I have yet to try burrito girl I wonder if that place would change my opinion.

2) Mandy’s Diner. Maybe not as clean but a sticky floor is part of the American Diner experience. Most of the food is pretty good I think. Milkshakes are why I go there. Open 24 hours as well.

3) Chi’s Korean Tacos I can’t hype that place up enough. Chi is rough around the edges, crazy Florida man. Don’t be offended if he seems mean to you he’s just like that. I’ve eaten here more than anywhere else in Eugene. Rice balls are my favorite, ask for the awesome sauce AFTER he hands you the food. the breakfast burritos he makes are a great cure for hangovers. Will be eating at chi’s long as I live here.

Hi friends! You may have already seen me posting about the group I’m trying to start, Eugene Creation Exchange. So far we have done jewelry making, collage, movie night, paint by numbers.

I’ve found that I’m putting in a LOT of effort into planning events, inviting friends and anyone I run into that might be interested. I make event posters, reserve venues, buy all necessary supplies. I don’t want to give up, but I feel like I’m doing something wrong!

It’s been fun, however we’ve had an inconsistent turn out each time. How do I get the same people to come back? Also, I’ve had lots of trouble getting members to participate in discussions about future events, their availability, etc. I don’t want to make this a chore and I totally understand that people have busy lives, but I guess I just had different expectations.

I could use some tips from people who either have experience in coordinating group meet ups, or what you’d like to see as a group member. Thanks for your help in advance!

When will it rain - Jackyl

Yours?

New homeowner here. I understand that the water table is high here, and water is often a problem, leading to many people getting sump pumps.

With all the rains we've been having, I went into my crawlspace to check on things and discovered that maybe 1/10th or 1/20th of the ground has puddles of water. Maybe a centimeter deep max, so it's not bathing the posts in water (since they're on concrete blocks), but obviously still not ideal. Most of the ground is covered with vapor barrier (although it's a mess and not 100% covered)--the bulk of the water seems to be seeping in the sides through the foundation, especially near downspouts which aren't piped all the way to the street anymore (collapsed pipes), but only have those above-ground 3-foot-long plastic downspout extenders.

Is this worth spending lots of money to fix, or par for the course around here?

(BTW, to give a sense of the seasonal cycles: In the summertime, it's nearly all dry--maybe one tiny puddle.)

Going to Willamette for the first time next weekend and my girlfriend has just started to dabble in some black runs. Wanted to see if there was any local knowledge for progression from easier blacks to harder blacks?

Any help is appreciated!

Frontside - Eagle's Flight

• Good Time Charlie

• High Lead

• Success

• RTS

Backside: - June's Run

• Northern Exposure
