Free Bose Soundlink Color II bluetooth speaker
by Jim Spisak 25 Nov '25

25 Nov '25

Hi neighbors, I'm giving away a Bose Soundlink Color II portable bluetooth speaker. It's about 8 years old but works fine for the most part (minor issues are occasional struggles to begin charging and brief skips in connection/sound about once per hour of listening). I'd have no problem continuing to use it but was recently given a new speaker. Free for pickup in Stanton Heights. Charging cord included. Jim Spisak

New local project: personal story audio recordings
by Shelly DankoDay 25 Nov '25

25 Nov '25

Hi neighbors, As some of you may know, I host a podcast called *With Bowl and Spoon*, where I record conversations and personal stories about people's personal food evolution. From that work, I’m starting a new project called *Heirloom Audio* — creating recorded story sessions for families who want to capture a loved one’s memories and voice. I’m putting together a pilot round and wanted to see if anyone in the neighborhood would be interested or knows someone who might be. If you’d like more information, feel free to reach out. Thanks! *Shelly* _________________ Shelly Danko+Day Host of With Bowl and Spoon podcast <https://www.withbowlandspoon.com/>

Yard Sale Signs
by Emily Nicholson 25 Nov '25

25 Nov '25

To the extremely petty “neighbor” who took it upon themselves to take down a bunch of flyers I had posted on poles around the neighborhood (many of which I had already taken down, but apparently I forgot a few) to advertise a yard sale we had last month (which obviously had my address on them) and then leave them on the bench that I have put at the bus stop in front of our house for me to find: You seem to have a lot a free time on your hands and a penchant for wanting to send a message. Maybe you could try something more productive, like volunteering to serve Thanksgiving dinner, walking dogs at the animal shelter, or even simply picking up the actual litter on the sidewalks and streets of our neighborhood and in the park. Do you take down the missing cat signs and knitted BLM decorations that also adorn our neighborhood poles? Do you call the phone numbers of the dog walkers advertising their services and berate them for vandalism of public property? Where do you draw the line? Sent from my iPhone

Car hood latch broken?
by aluffie 24 Nov '25

24 Nov '25

I went to check my oil and when I pulled the hood release the cable broke! I can not open the hood. The hood release mechanism is on top of the radiator and can not be reached from underneath. I have taken it to 3 mechanics and body shops without success. The only solutions so far are to cut a hole in the hood or release the hood supports near the windshield and bend the hood to reach the cable. Deep down I think there must be a better way. Any help or suggestions would be appreciated. David

New Neighbor Alert! Professional Pet Care & Dog Walking in Highland Park 🐾
by brianna vasquez 24 Nov '25

24 Nov '25

Hello Highland Park Neighbors, My name is Brianna (Bri), and I wanted to reach out to the neighborhood list as a new resident. I moved here from Portland, Oregon, about three months ago and have already fallen in love with Highland Park! You might see me working behind the counter at the wonderful Colombian cafe not too far away, but I'm looking to transition back to my true passion: caring for all your pets right here in our community. Experienced Care You Can Trust While I’m new to this city, I am not new to pet care. I want to offer you and your furry (or feathered, or scaled!) family members the highest level of reliable, professional service, built on proven experience: 1. Trusted House Sitters (THS) Verified: My most significant experience comes from years as a verified, top-rated member of Trusted House Sitters. This means I have been consistently entrusted with comprehensive care—not just dog walking—but full responsibility for people's homes and pets for weeks at a time. This includes managing complex feeding schedules, administering medications, handling emergencies, and maintaining house security, all while providing continuous, loving companionship. I bring that same level of dedication and responsibility to every visit I make. 2. Professional Dog Walking & Training Background: In Portland, I regularly performed daily dog walking with Puddletown Hounds LLC which I specialized in Dog Training and Walking. This environment emphasized structured walks, positive reinforcement, and understanding canine behavior. While dogs were my primary focus there, the organizational skills and responsible attitude translate directly to all types of pet needs. Services & Introductory Pricing (Highland Park Only) I am focusing my services exclusively on Highland Park to ensure I can be reliable, timely, and responsive to our immediate community's needs. Services are customized for dogs, cats, small animals, and more! Service Duration Price (Introductory Rate) Quick Pet Visit / Dog Break 15 Minutes $20 Standard Pet Care or Dog Walk 30 Minutes $25 Extended Visit or Adventure Walk 60 Minutes $40 Area of Service: Currently, I am serving the Highland Park neighborhood only. If you are outside Highland Park but within a 5-mile radius, I am happy to consider walking services for you if you are referred by a current Highland Park resident. I would love to meet you and your pets! I offer a free, no-obligation meet-and-greet to discuss your animals' specific needs, routines, and training cues. Feel free to reply to this email or call/text me at 503-929-4748 to schedule a time. Warmly, Brianna (Bri) Highland Park Resident briannavasquez(a)live.com
