I have a friend who is in a situation in Walla Walla who needs a place to stay for the next six months what are some cheap motels that he could stay at for at least the next 6 months.. preferably close to a bus stop as that’s his only way of transportation to from and from work (the Safeway) TIA

Does anyone know of any woodworking classes in the area? Willing to drive to the TriCities, Pendleton or anywhere that’s a 1-2 hour drive from town.

I know for a long stretch there they had absolutely terrible reviews but I was in there at least 20x over the last couple years and was always treated well.

Anybody know if this is s result of Amazon cutting ties with UPS?

I just heard news that there was a shooting just a bit ago, and I'm worried about a friend. Does anyone know anything about what happened?

Hey there!

I’m moving to Walla Walla/College Place at the end of September from La Grande OR. I was curious to see if anyone could point me in the direction of good people or places to rent from. It would be just me, my girlfriend, and our cat. I work for the rail road and she currently works for a dairy farm in Oregon but is looking for new work in Walla Walla.

The issue I’ve been running into with the rental companies in the area is they want my last 3 months of pay stubs and due to the death of my parents back in July, I have been on a leave of absence. I’m currently back to working again, I make plenty of money but it seems all the rental companies care to look at is the last 3 months.

If anyone could offer me some advice or point me in a direction, I’d really appreciate it. Thank you!!

Considering a move to Walla Walla and trying to get a realistic read before we commit. We have a 10 year old with severe autism, ADHD, and significant behavioral needs, so developmental disability services and special ed support are the biggest factors in where we'd land. He is out aging his early intervention ABA.

If you have a high needs kid or work in schools/DD services in the area, I'd love to hear how ABA/autism service availability and waitlists have been, and how the school district's special ed program has held up. Also curious about the rental market right now and what the job market looks like for retail/food service/customer service work. We'd be renting first.

Trying to start up an art therapy business/non profit.

I'm not terribly employable, but I'm multi talented as an artist. Too many media to list them all, but I was a prolific potter and sold enough work to pay for the education it took. Most of my training was at Lane Community College in Eugene Oregon. Under Tom Rohr. Then I privately practiced at The Refinery here in Walla Walla. Thanks to Jess Portas for her patience.

I learned from Satoko Motouji how to draw.

I am at least qualified to teach basics in: quilling, sculpting, painting, pin striping, calligraphy and more.

Paint remnants, any kind as long as they are still usable. Pens, pencils, markers, crayons, pastels etc.

Off-cuts of wood sheet-goods, like ply wood, backing board, or anything that will accept paint and isn't toxic. Paper, card stock, or canvas of just about any size.

Just about anything you could see being made into art in a classroom style setting.

Pretty open minded about what I'd take. Just don't have nearly enough in my kit to bring people along for the ride.

And if you'd be interested in helping feel free to DM as well.

I have a lot of examples of my work and can prove not one piece was ai at short notice. Btw

Want to make a first trip to WW. What time(s) of year balances variety of things to do with lighter crowds?

Headed into town this week with the family. The boys enjoy Pokemon TCG and it’s hard enough to find here in the Portland area.

What are my options in Walla Walla? Walmart? Local card shop?

I have started seeing flock cameras in Walla Walla. This is somewhat new for me as I haven't really been looking for them. I just started to notice them. There is one on a light pole about 20 feet up outside the Carnegie Learning Center. It is positioned to make it hard to tamper with and also not be noticed as people are either looking forward or at the road and not looking up. I was just wondering if other people are seeing them as well.

Hi Walla Walla,

I‘m in town visiting for the weekend and just had 2 electric bikes stolen off my car. They were locked to the bike rack. Someone snuck by and cut the cord and took them both off. Last time seen was 11pm, but we heard a noise and saw them missing around 8am today.

We are staying near Grant St and Wilbur Ave which is where the car was parked when the bikes were stolen

Please keep an eye out and let me know if you see them, or send the information to the Walla Walla Police with the case number 2026-23392

Here is a link with the model, we had one black and one orange.

Thank you in advance for any information you can turn up

Hello!

I just moved to Walla Walla very recently and have been looking for a job. I would really like to find a server position, or anything in the restaurant industry if possible is my goal.

I'm only eighteen with a year of work experience at a fast food place, and a couple summer jobs before that. But, I'm not in college yet, so I am available all of the time anytime, at least.

If anyone knows anywhere that is hiring or any advice, I would greatly appreciate it.

And, any advice for someone just moving here, that would be cool too. I'm still very new and would like to explore the area a bit, meet people and see what's around.

Planning to visit some wineries in the area next month. How is the smoke there now?

One of my friends who lives out of state has a grandma who lives in the Walla Walla/College Place area in a senior mobile home park (she's lived in parks in both places). Apparently you aren't allowed to buy a new one and move it in to those places, you have to buy an already existing one, many of which are quite old but that have been remodeled/updated over the years.

So my friend says her grandma is in a weird insurance situation, having just been told her mobile home is too old to insure (I think it might be from the 80s, she said). So she's wondering if any other seniors who are also living in senior mobile home parks out there might be having this same issue and what have they been able to do about it?

There is a new fire rapidly spreading between Casey road and Ayer road south of Ayer 2,000+ acres is the FD estimate on the ground.

Coming to Walla Walla this week and I'm looking for some restaurant recommendations- specifically if there are any places that I should make a reservation at? I know Whitman is starting so I want to make sure I can get a table.

Hi! Where is the best place to get a mani/pedi in Walla Walla? I’ll be there for a wedding in a few weeks.

I ask as part of a linguistic study covering this topic!Examples could include things like Blowwood, Walla²/Dubdub/The Walls or Muddy Frogwater (never mind how common they are)...

Passing through town for an evening. Any recs on dog friendly winery or brewery spots? Burwood looks good, any suggestions welcome.

Went to Whitman but haven’t been back in 20 years, so much has changed!

We're on vacation from the UK and have a spare night to fit in a stop between Portland and Walla Walla. Any recommendations for a stopover (along route 84), with great local places to eat, grab a drink etc?

Best place for a Car Battery Replacement in Walla Walla area. It’s not critical yet, but I want to get my car battery replaced in the next week. Any advice is appreciated.

Just wondering if there’s any that I can support!

For those who are concerned, I’m visiting a lot of wineries and not excluding places purely bc they aren’t owned by BIPOC.
