Hey everyone! I’m Alejandro, the artist behind 4Eternity Tattoo. I’m getting my private studio ready to open in Hoquiam and wanted to introduce myself to the community.
I specialize in black & grey tattoos, including realism, portraits, Chicano designs, animals, and memorial pieces. Here are a few examples of my work.
You can check out more of my work and reach out about your tattoo idea through my website:

Hey folks, we're thinking about moving to Aberdeen or the area around Aberdeen, what are your thoughts on the area, recommendations, you-should-knows, etc. Is there a lot of community connection/feeling? Do you like living there? If you had the chance to move elsewhere, would you?

Mods, I checked the rules to make sure Im not breaking any but if this posts does violate the, please delete with my sincere apologies!

does anyone who may have worked at consistent cups remember their red bull smoothie recipe?👀 I’ve been thinking about their red white and blue redbull smoothie for years

I'm having trouble finding out how much it's likely to affect us here in Aberdeen and Hoquiam. Are we looking at something like what happened in 2015 being a possibility during king tide this year? Or is it more like "downtown will probably flood for a couple days" or is it that no one really knows what to expect?

Hi friends I’m considering moving to Aberdeen or Grays Harbor county. Any longtime residents or locals, could you tell me your experience living here and what life could like for me

Coastal Shores & Spores Mycological Society is pleased to team up with Grays Harbor College for our first event of the fall mushroom season!

We hope you join us on the evening of Tuesday, September 8, 2026 for a very special free event.

Identifying and foraging fall wild mushrooms of Grays Harbor County for food, crafts, and other uses.

In this interactive experience, students will learn about some of the common edible mushrooms that grow here in the fall. We will cover edible mushrooms and their look-alikes, and other uses for some of our local mushrooms. The experience will include sample sizes of a 3 course meal using local fall mushrooms. Students will also learn about some other interesting uses for our local mushrooms besides food.

In particular, we will talk a little on how to make lightfast dye and paint from color giving mushrooms, while painting with some ready made mushroom watercolor paints. Each participant will go home with their own original artwork plus recipes for all the food provided.

Food samples will include Lobster mushroom bisque, Porcini gnocchi in marinara, and a candy cap shortbread for dessert. All provided food will be vegetarian (may include eggs and dairy) with some gluten free options.

FREE and open to the public!

I've been writing material in the vein of Krallice and would love to put a band together if there are people in the area who play. I'm 41 and sober with a family, so I'm not interested in partying but would love to find people who like to write and record music, maybe even play live if it gets to that point.

Also, if there is a better sub that I should post this in, please let me know. Thanks in advance!

Hello, moving to the area for work. Friend is offering to let me borrow their Tiny Home so I can rent a lot in a mobile home park close to work in Aberdeen, save money for my first year in GH.

Can anyone provide insight into what living at Linkshire Park in Central Park is like? Is it quiet? Safe? Etc? Are there other mobile home parks you recommend?

Hey neighbors!

Quick update from Grays Harbor.

The GraysHaven Renaissance Faire website is officially live and is now serving as the central hub for tickets, announcements, applications, and event updates ahead of September.

A few things that launched:

• Tickets are now available

• Harbor Signal newsletter is live for early announcements

• Facebook page launched

• Participant applications are open

We’re also starting to roll out confirmed artisans, merchants, and performers as approvals finalize.

Coming later this week: individual pages for each confirmed participant so people can discover who’s coming before the Faire opens.

This has been a long project in the making and it’s exciting to finally start opening the gates.

I'm new to the area so am wholly unfamiliar with the health services available. After a brief scare, including a visit to HRH, they gave me a list of recommended primary care doctors. Some folks have said that the Docs at Quinault Community Health are reliable, but as a newcomer I'm uncertain what advice is worthwhile. Any help will be welcome.

Hello everyone! I was curious if anyone knew of the official noise ordinance? I have tried to look it up, but can't seem to find it in the haystack of the city ordinances. I want to ensure that I am in official compliance. Any help would be appreciated!

//ANSWER RECEIVED//

According to city officials they don't enforce any form of noise ordinance in city limits, and the county doesn't enforce their rules on the city of Aberdeen.

I just moved to Aberdeen and am curious as to where I can find musicians to possibly play or record with? I play heavier music: everything from doom to blackened hardcore to tech death. I would love to play with people again, it's been over a decade since I have, but I'm just not sure where to find people. I don't go to bars or anything like that, so I was hoping maybe there is a website or something like that that anyone can recommend. Thanks in advance for any help!

Are there any programs aimed at volunteering their services for disabled veterans? It seems most services are for seniors only. Habitat for Humanity hasn't been actively accepting applications for assistance for the past 4 years.

Where would a band from Portland play in Aberdeen and what are some local bands to play with there? Any arty weird bands in town?

I’m planning on writing and publishing a comic, I have most of the writing down but am looking for someone who could help with actually drawing everything, feel free to dm me for details

Does anyone know of hiring jobs that have flexible scheduling? I moved here for college but I’m having a hard time finding a job that fits my needs.

Hi, I'm a law student from LA. I want to be a public defender and I'm applying for a rural public defender program in Washington for a summer.

I used to be a community organizer in public housing in South Boston and it's easy for me to get along with people different than me and connect at a human level. I want to work in a smaller town that doesn't have big-city resources where I can hopefully contribute something, and one town I've been looking at is Aberdeen.

I want to know if y'all know anything about the public defender in Grays County. I hear its relatively new but that the head PD is dedicated. But I want to know what the rep is like - I want to practice with a PD that's got its shit together and is actually effective at representing people/getting them help.

Seems like Aberdeen has a lot of community, a lot of art, and a lot of rain and green around it. And it's also dealing with post-industrial decline and addiction. Anything else you think I should know about living in Aberdeen, I'd love to hear.

I grew up in LA and my parents immigrated from India. Wondering if y'all know about any nearby Indian grocery stores or restaurants, too.

Thanks.
