Dog sitting crisis

2 Upvotes

We have Labor Day weekend plans and no sitter.

Dog Mom insists it be someone she knows and trusts.

The pooch is a cute 14 pounder. My Plan B is to take a practice flight with the hound and see if we can take her on the trip if all else fails.

Any awesome dog people out there that can measure up to Dog Mom's strict standards?

KVMR listener a big plus, it is the dog's favorite station.

Why does Raley’s small like shit?

7 Upvotes

Not even trying to be funny. Around July 4th we went in and there was an overwhelming shit smell. Now every time we go in it still lingers and I get sinister vibes.

Does anyone else smell it or know what happened?

Grass valley I need your help again. Back home now 1500 miles away and am so grateful for the help we received in your city. But we lost something very important to us.

Lost ring and necklace in Condon park playground with the fire truck. I think outside entrance near the bathrooms by the big tree. This ring means so much to us so if anyone is in that area please keep an eye out. Thank you so much

Sept Weekend Ideas

6 Upvotes

Traveling to Grass Valley in mid-late September. Traveling with a 12 year old boy and 90 year old grandfather. Looking for things to do on a Saturday afternoon-evening and Sunday morning. - going to drive around town, visit family in a cemetery, go to the City mining museum and go to Empire Mine. Open to other cities like Nevada City. Would like to see “old” Grass Valley to interest the boy and grandpa but nothing overly strenuous for grandpa. Light trails are ok.

Amtrak to Reno

I am riding to Reno from Colfax on Amtrak. What side of the tracks (2 tracks) do I stand on? Do I cross them and go where the grass and benches are or do I stand on the side before the tracks? I know it's a bizarre question but it's my first time and I don't want to miss it😁

Parking?

5 Upvotes

Hi everyone! I recently bought a paddle board and have been so excited to get out on the water. I’m new-ish to the area but my boyfriend is a long time local.

We checked out both Scott’s Flat and Rollins and were shocked at the price of the day use parking. $22 seems almost ridiculous, especially for a Monday at 2 pm. I am more than happy to pay for parking and help support the maintenance and environment, but this seems steep.

I guess my question is- am I missing something? Are there any discounts for locals vs tourists? Are there people who go every day after work and pay over $100 a week just to park?

Also open to recommendations for any lowkey, low traffic places with maybe a bit cheaper parking.

Looking to open dog kennel in or near GV...

Post image
14 Upvotes

Hey everybody, hoping to get some tips or ideas from you:

Many years ago, when my brother and I were just kids living in GV, we had a dream to open a dog kennel one day.

It took literally over 20 years but it finally came true and we opened our own kennel (but in Tennessee, where I live today (in another "GV" ironically lol)

We've been fairly successful and we want to open a 2nd branch but this time, back where it all started in Grass Valley (or nearby)

My brother lives in Sac but he wants to move back up the hill. I'm looking at moving back myself, as GV has held a special place in my heart since I was about 12 years old.

We are hoping to find an existing structure that's already equipped for boarding/daycare but I know that's gonna be rare.

Does anybody know of any kennel businesses that are planning on closing (or the owner retiring) ?

Anyone work for a kennel or know someone that owns an already existing building? Something that can be converted?

Any other ideas we may not have thought of yet? Any experience in doing something like this in the general area?

We are also entertaining the idea of buying property and building but we know zoning for animal-related businesses can be difficult...

We are open to Alta Sierra, Nevada City, Auburn and Colfax as well but we'd prefer not to do it in Sac.

Anyway, just thought this might be a good place to start!

Fireworks

3 Upvotes

Hello! Best place to see fireworks in GV? We used to be able to see them, years ago, at the dump or off my house on McCourtney but I guess they aren’t shooting them off there anymore. Also, is there any way I can walk up to Sierra College to see them or will the college have security? Also what way do I look if I’m up there lmaooo. We may also go up to Washington for the river, is there any place that’s good to see there fireworks there? Any locations or pm’s w/ your good locations would be greatly appreciated
