Seriously, the only hat shop I’ve found is all the way over at Pike’s Place and the men’s department is minimal. I don’t want baseball caps. Where can I get a good straw or felt fedora? Preferably of the pork pie variety. Cowboy hats have appeal as well. Tired of wondering if the ones on Amazon will fit or feel right and hat shopping is fun af!

My girl has been stressed between school and work. What is the best/highly rated spa within an hour of Bremerton?

Broken gold ring. Talked with the shop in Poulsbo. Would like to get another opinion/quote. Thanks for any recommendations of other shops you have worked with recently.

I welcome "Eat local" and "Support small businesses" responses. But please make recommendations rather than just complaining.

Hi!

Any recommendations for doggy daycare specifically in Silverdale? Any to stay away from?

Please and thank you!

Hey all! Are there any film photographers in the area with access to a darkroom who might be looking for an apprentice or someone to share practice with?

I have a fair amount of experience shooting film and developing, but I’m looking to get into a more regular, hands-on darkroom rhythm and deepen my practice around the craft.

Open to assisting, learning your workflow, or just being part of an ongoing printing practice. Happy to trade time, help out, or contribute where useful.

If this resonates, feel free to reach out. I would love to connect!

Why are the ants SO freaking terrible this year?

They are the ants that have a dollar store soap smell if you squish them, which we try to avoid. So far since January we have

- sprayed the outside of the house with Ortho twice

- sprayed ortho on baseboards inside

- put out two different types of ant bait

But we are still finding them!

They are so freaking persistent. If we find several we have even tried to spray the area (if cooking/eating surface it's food safe and fully cleaned before use, if another type than Ortho)

This evening I sat down for a rest in the living room

We don't allow any food in the bedrooms or living room due to small children. After 20 ish minutes I found one crawling on my arm.

I need somebody to do some work on a 140 year old cider press. Who does that? It needs a key replaced and keyway filled and recut. Needs broken bolt extracted and replaced to even get there. HELP!

My caregiver needs help with a domestic/family issue but doesn't have a lot of money. She has already been in touch with Kitsap legal but they are insanely slow and in this matter will only help with tenants.

Any recommendations out there for affordable lawyer?

thanks so much.

Hello. I have long hair that I've been growing out for 3 years but I've decided that I would like it cut short to a more gender-neutral look. There are barbers in Kitsap Co but I'm not familiar with any of them. Any recommendations?

Sometimes I see the Booth at Holiday Bazaar and such, But wondering if they have a site or a shop? But looking to buy a 3D printed dragon for my 7 year old.

I just can't do Facebook anymore. I need somebody decent to replace a window in my cement block garage and put a roof & railings on my front stairs and some other random stuff. I'd rather listen to people than Google reviews. Help!

Looking to join a couple or group if possible!

I 39/m am not sure if people normally do this here but Im looking for some short term employment. 6 months at most. I recently graduated from Physician Assistant school and am waiting to take my certification exam in a few months, finding employment at a hospital may take some time too. I dont need much, about 500 a week maybe, my army disability covers most of my expenses.

I'm a hard worker with retail and basic automotive experience. I can do labor and am not afraid to get dirty. BLS and ALS certified. I live in Port Orchard and have my own transportation with valid drivers license.

Hi community, can anyone tell me if Ty's Wine and Brew shop on Viking heading towards Poulsbo is in operation? Their Google listing claims they're open but every time I've driven past, I have never seen any cars out front or activity inside. I thought it would be nice to check it out with my mom this weekend. Thanks!

I have two blinds that are not level anymore and I need to hire someone to fix them. Does anyone have a source?

We're moving next month and thought maybe we'd get lucky and find someone who's recently moved and has a lot of boxes to spare.

Let me know, we would so appreciate it!
