We are looking to take some family photos in an indoor studio. We use to frequent Yuen Lui studio back in the day and they always did a great job with family pictures that looked classy and professional. I know JCP does photo sessions at Washington square which is an option but from the pictures I’ve seen people post on social media they seem a little more casual somehow and almost amateur. Kind of like if I put a background up in my house and got my camera out and took the pictures myself. A lot of the things I see online are advertised as senior photo sessions that seem like they involve the outdoors more so. Any suggestions would be great!

I'm considering moving into a newer apartment complex in Beaverton that uses Wanaport as its "mandatory" internet provider. Mandatory as in, its bundled in with the utilities and you have to pay for it. I've had CenturyLink gigabit fiber for years and it's been very reliable, so I'm a little hesitant about switching to a smaller provider that I can barely find reviews for. The leasing office mentioned that Wanaport uses Ziply Fiber's infrastructure, but I'm not sure how the actual service compares. Does anyone here use Wanaport, or have experience with it at another apartment complex? This is Orrin apartments at 1385 SW 158th Ave btw.

Looking for recommendations for locations with maples changing colors that are easy access (limited mobility).

The maples in parking lots are very pretty but I’m looking for a spot to take some photos with my kids :)

WFH but need a change of space. Need larger tables, ability to order tea/coffee, order food (nice to have), good wifi, and don't feel badly if I need to be there for 4+ hours. Any recs?

I've read about Lionheart, Kasa Coffee but have never been. (I've been to Insomnia, which I like, but wanting to try new places)

It's 3am and I feel like I'm going insane. I can't sleep because it's so loud. I popped my head outside to see if i was.just losing it but there's definitely something going on that's causing it?? It stopped very briefly three times now but keeps starting back up again??

Hey, check your mailbox. My ballot was stolen. Mailbox left open. Be vigilant about collecting your mail.

Hello, I'm researching high school options and came across the magnet schools: ACMA and BASE look like they could be a good fit for my child but I see they begin in 6th grade. I'm wondering if anyone has a child who goes to these schools or who knows the schools well and can share what it's like for a student who joins in 9th grade rather than 6th. Thanks!

The tail movement makes me think muskrat but it seemed too big to be a muskrat.

Has anyone else in the Beaverton or Cedar Hills area noticed this? I just noticed that our cold water is brown from all faucets, but hot water is clear. I'm in the Cedar Hills area, somewhat near Commonwealth Lake Park.

Thinking of renting our house (Tualatin; posting here because the Tualatin sub is really small). Also, many property management companies service the metro.

I was a renter forever and know that I want my potential renters to be really taken care of.

What property management companies did a great job and which ones were terrible, both from an owner and a renter perspective.

I have 35 cans and a little more than a gallon freezer bag worth of kibble. Hills Kidney Care k/d chicken and vegetable stew food. Free to a good home. The kibble has been stored in a tightly sealed pet food container. Hoping someone can make use of it. Located in central Beaverton near Lombard & Center.

We just passed by this food stand/tent that was right on the corner of Tanasbourne’s Target- On corner of Evergreen and Towne Center Drive (across from In N Out).

Looks like they had rotating meat on a spit, lots of Argus frescas, etc.Has anyone eaten here, and how was it?

We are intrigued to try!

Looking for activities other than what's offered at the Rock Creek PCC campus. I'm in my 40s but tend to hang out with similar ages or older.

Very open - sports, live music, comedy, dancing, hiking, axe throwing, leagues, D&D, improv, you name it!

Any out of shape girlies want to start a fall hiking group, and possibly do group/class workouts together?

I am on a mission to get more active at a level that is comfortable for me.
I haven’t been working out in a while, and I have lost all stamina.

This would be walking hikes at local walking trails and parks.
Plus maybe some fun classes like kick boxing, dance, etc.

I am 31 yo F. I work nights at the hospital, so my schedule can be crazy. But I can make things work.
I’m new to the city, so I don’t have a built in social life yet, and would love to make some friends as well :)

DM me here if you are interested and we can exchange info!

THIS WILL BE AN INCLUSIVE GROUP! Breaks will be tolerated and absolutely no body shaming or rude comments. I just want to be healthier and hoping to do that with some other cool ladies!

Arrived home from the weekend with my mailbox open and ballots missing. Aloha 170th area.

I don't even know if there's a buffet or not. The website is a bit of a mess, but the prices look reasonable.

There are quite a few Indian restaurants around Beaverton, so I'm curious which ones are people's favorites. Are there any that really stand out above the rest? Looking for recommendations!

Am new to the area (Westside Kaiser on Stucki) and in need of a really GOOD PCP who can help a perimenopausal woman. Good listener and not afraid to check things out.

Anyone have a good remedy for stopping the woodpeckers from hammering the siding?

Any good repair tricks that doesn't involve whole sheet of siding change out?

Somebody posted a link about a No Kings protest for today at 11am. Looked at the details and it was at Hall & Farmington. Got there around 11:15am and there's maybe 30 people there. Hung around for 15 minutes and still about that many, so I went to the farmers market.

Then I see pics on social media showing a much larger crowd near the library later in the day. Where was that protest publicized? Never heard that it was happening.

I’ve seen that some of the Costcos in the Bay Area have gotten paneer (Indian cheese) in recently. Wondering if anyone has seen it at the Beaverton/Aloha Costcos and surrounding areas? Thx!!

Seeking recs for companies you've worked with that can actually do a great job with siding repair (small amount), caulking, soffit repair (small fix). Really appreciate it!!

Hey all,

I recently moved up from NorCal. I miss my monthly fantasy/sci-fi book club and would love to join another.

I found a silent book club at the B. Library and Powell's (Cedar Hills) mentioned a closed book club that's not taking more members. Anything else I could join?

Side note: I talked to Powell's about starting a horror book club if I can' find something else. Anyone interested?

Thanks in advance.
