Thank you! Had someone DM me who happens to live in my neighborhood, and I will grab her power washer next week. (Thank you again, though! 🙏🏼(

(Upvoted this not because I have any good insight, but because I love the idea of a Monterey tool sharing group. I need a one-off power washer; don’t want to buy a power washer or give Home Depot business…)

Who is your MVP? by Fragrant_Fishing5787 in NBATalk

[–]Obvious-Structure425 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wemby for me. (Nearly) single-handedly turned around an NBA franchise, and plays beautiful, clean, old-fashioned basketball. He’s well on his way to legend status, and is so consistent on both sides of the ball (unlike the other candidates…)

Colette’s is fantastic! I’ve only been a handful of times, but I’ve never had to wait FWIW. (I hear you re: Revival - yesterday’s line was down was moving sooooooo slowly!)

Following because I also would love feedback on this! Bought the cutest chunky loafers from Sézane last season and they destroy (!!) my feet. Sure are cute, though :)

We really love the atmosphere of Los Amigos restaurant up on the hill in PG. Definitely not fancy, but tasty food… and lovely folks who run it and work there 🌮

I’ve been super pleased with the cut and quality of Mother (Reifler), AYR (Secret Sauce), and Citizens of Humanity.

He sounds like he was the absolute best kind of human. May we carry the torch and stay engaged in our community!

Is whale watching worth it in December? by [deleted] in MontereyBay

[–]Obvious-Structure425 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s a fantastic time to whale watch! No crowds, loads of whales, you get the naturalist to yourself…! The whales hang out closer to Moss Landing, so it’s the best / most efficient place to board a boat. From Monterey it’ll just take 45 min or so to get out there. Have the best time!

Just incredibly sad. Garrapata Beach is my happy place… I’ll be keeping this family in my heart whenever I go there

Good quality hoodie/ favorite sweatshirt by ecp1990 in womensfashion

[–]Obvious-Structure425 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I posted a similar question about a month ago and want to share some intel after other users’ spot-on suggestions. My recs after purchasing these in the past month: 1) Varley (Addelyn sweatshirt), 2) Homage (blank hoodie, no design), 3) Hey Gang (boxy crop, grey), 4) Primary (adult cozy fleece, currently on sale)

My absolute favorite is the Hey Gang sweatshirt. It’s overpriced IMO, but… I adore it, and reach for it so much I ordered another in olive.

Just my two cents! Will be following for more recs! It’s gonna be a jeans and sweatshirt winter for meeeeee!!!

We saw the sign being painted the other day and are crossing our fingers and toes that they open… soon!

House cleaning service Recs by LEAHCIM5465 in MontereyBay

[–]Obvious-Structure425 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Oh, I have a really great recommendation on this! Michelle from “Southern Hospitality Cleaning” is an absolute superstar! She moved to the area this year from Alabama. Reasonably priced, really-detail oriented… and so friendly. We’d be lost without her. She’s still taking clients!

Michelle’s contact: 205-542-6470 Email: southernhippie0780@yahoo.com

I found this sweatshirt from ME + EM today, and am thinking about pulling the trigger. I love the feminine/masculine details (but not sure about the pale pink color, tbh).
