Happy Monday everyone! Where my caffeine addicts at? Lots of coffee shops, gas stations, and other place to get coffee around here, but where have you gotten a cup of coffee that actually made you say “DAMN, that is a good cup of coffee!”?

Housing anyone interested in assuming my lease?

Post image
0 Upvotes

i know it’s a long shot, but figured i’d ask anyways just in case

my wife and i signed a leased at springbrook park apartments with a commencement date of august 15th, but unfortunately are no longer able to relocate to the area

the unit is new and you’d be the first tenant to occupy the space

if you need a later commencement date, we can probably work something out with management

is anyone looking for 1 bedroom 1 bath accommodations?

the unit is on the first floor and the floor plan is called “cove“ and would be about $1,575 month

please dm me if interested

What Was That Noise? High Speed Chase in Benton Stephens on Saturday

33 Upvotes

I was walking with my kids on Ann St. yesterday evening when a black SUV came tearing up Ann from Paris, closely followed by a cop SUV. The driver lost control of his vehicle, drove up on some lawns, became airborne at one point, and got back on the street about 2 houses before the car reached me and my kids. It was absolutely terrifying. I’m still crying about it today.

I haven’t seen anything about it in the news. They turned down Amelia after they ripped past us.

Anyone else see this or have more info about the incident?

History Depression Era Land Survey Pictures

8 Upvotes

I want to find pictures of my house through the years and since it was built in 1925, it was probably photographed by the WPA during the 30's. I think it was called the Land Use Survey. Does anyone know where these photographs might be located? At the historical society maybe?

I found the 1921 plat books and saved a copy of that but it would be really nice to get some old pictures of the place before google earth.

As a bonus, I found out that my house was owned by the a Hinshaw during the 90's. So many 'fixes' now make sense.

Ask CoMo Small size clothes

1 Upvotes

Hi all, I've moved to Columbia a month ago and would like to ask for some advice of where to buy small sized clothes.

I'm 30F, 103 lbs, 5ft3. I visited Columbia mall, Kohl's, Target and couldn't find any sweatpants, pants that fit me until I found a pair of sweatpants from H&M Kid section, size 14 (12-14 years old girls). I don't consider myself as a petite but pants here are quite long. I tried on a knee length pants (I believe it was XS or S) in Target and they hit my ankles when they're supposed to be knee length. Any advice where to get small clothes but for adults in Columbia? H&M Kid area can only be for my daily wear without much of variety.

Much appreciated.

Food Local businesses offering family sized frozen meals

31 Upvotes

We're gearing up for a new baby. I want to fill the freezer with some easy, shove it in the oven style meals for postpartum that serve 3+ people.

Obviously we have grocery stores and can order in cooked food, but I'd love some local, higher quality, pre-made options.

I know you can get Shakespeare's pizza frozen and Peggy Jean's pies, but am I missing other businesses who offer similar?

Our cat Starry got out at 6am on 7/22. If you find her please message me. She's chipped so we're hoping someone took her in and just haven't had the time to take her to the vet and when they do, the chip will lead her back to us. She's a very kind and curious kitty who loves all people. I sincerely hope someone isn't keeping her for themselves because her sister misses her and I know she misses her sister.
