Weekend Housing Swap - Bend for PDX? Coast?

BlurLes — Sat, 07 Nov 2009 02:22:05 GMT

We live in a 3 bedroom craftsman bungalow on Bend's westside. Less than two miles to the river or downtown, 30 minutes to Mt. Bachelor.

We have a clean, dog-friendly house and are looking for the same.

How about a weekend house swap?

Wine Tasting

whynot — Tue, 03 Nov 2009 06:15:08 GMT

Hello,

Just wondering if anyone from Salem is going to attend the wine tasting in Corvallis on November 14th?

I think it would be fun and nice to support them. I would like to go but I don't really want to go alone, so If there are others interested maybe we could get a group together for a fun evening.

Is there a place in Salem that offers free WIFI, like a coffee shop or something? Preferably someplace that has a good connection and stays connected.

New to Salem -- small house to rent??

NWnewbie — Mon, 21 Sep 2009 04:11:42 GMT

Hi,

I am new to Salem and looking tomorrow and possibly Tuesday morning for a clean, quiet, (decent/good/OK neighborhood, really) small home/condo/other to rent for a year (at least). I will be starting a position early next week, so have confirmation of that. If it was one very similar person, I might consider a house share . . . but would prefer the privacy of a separate place.

I am mature (and have been a home owner for 3 decades, guess that gives my age away -whoops , but changed careers, wanted to come to the NW . . .) extremely clean (take your shoes off at the door sort), gardener, non smoker, quiet gal, so if you have thought about renting or know of something -- please contact me ASAP, as I'm hoping to settle it all in the next two days. Ideally, small, but two bedrooms -- flexible on this with more or less, depending on the place.

I do have a dog, and so would really like a fenced yard, as he's a "throw whatever for forever for me" type of dog. He's older, calm in the house, and I usually have a dog walker if I cannot come home at lunch.

And, once all of this is settled, and I have a couple of weeks on the job (or less), I hope to join in some of the group's activities.

Thanks!!!

Hi-I'm Mercy

mercy — Sun, 20 Sep 2009 19:21:37 GMT

I wanted to say hello and introduce myself. It is about time. I have moved from Portland to Salem over a month ago. I didn't know I would get my 13 year old kid living with me. That's okay but I just haven't raised her in so long it is hard. I am used to living the single life. Anyway, I wanted to see if any of the ladies can tell me what event is worth going to coming up. I would like to go out for a bit. I think somewhere in the back of my mind I can remember being at the e-room having fun but it has been so long!!!!
HELP!!!!!!!!

Hello Lavender Community. Great website and thanks for being out there as a resource for our community!

My partner & I live in Yamhill now....yup...Yamhill. Is there a Lavender Womyns Community in Yamhill or in McMinnville?? The kids have all gone off to college and now we would like to sip wine with new friends in this beautiful valley.

Please email me if you can put us in touch with community in this area. commonwind@yahoo.com
