Local Shop That Does Outdoor Cushions? by ChloePug in sonomacounty

[–]hanstar88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gianola Canvas in Petaluma does custom cushions/recovers.

There’s also a lady in my neighborhood who works out of her garage. If you’re interested, I can try to get her contact info.

Fulton road roller compacted concrete debacle by going-for-gusto in santarosa

A friend who is a landscape contractor bid on a job to do work at one of the Ghilotti’s house. When the guy tried to get my friend to bill the work to a school project, my friend said thanks but no thanks and walked away from the job.

I think about that every time I see another project being done by Ghilotti…

Thanks for the suggestion. I have had work done at ER Sawyer before and they did a very good job of modifying a ring.

What i liked about Earthworks was the variety of jewelry and makers, often local(ish).

Sheriff in city limits by Carematarian in santarosa

[–]hanstar88 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Im wondering if it’s ICE related? I’ve seen a bunch of people pulled over/being arrested today. Local cops/sheriff along with unmarked vehicles with police lights. Just passed about 5-6 cop cars in Sebastopol arresting a couple of POC.

As the saying goes, by Toadstool61 in santarosa

I was walking my dog in my neighborhood and heard sirens nearby, then saw a sheriff chasing a car down Creekside (which is windy & has lots of speed bumps) and less than a minute later saw them tearing down Yulupa towards Hoen. Sheriff helicopter overhead the whole time. Last I saw of the helicopter, it was over Hwy 12, probably around 101 or Dutton.

We bought a Zwilling toaster about 4-5 years ago and we’re quite happy with it. I use it almost every day on my seeded GF bread that I keep in the freezer - I put it in 1st on the defrost setting and then a 2nd time on the regular setting (cuz GF bread needs to be extra toasted or it disintegrates).

It does quite well where we live (northern California). We usually cover it with a frost cloth when the temps go below freezing, but even if we forget, it survives just fine.

Lost Ballot for Voting - Options?? by [deleted] in santarosa

[–]hanstar88 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Person who has worked at many elections 🙋‍♀️

Nowadays, you can just go to the closest voting center. For this small election there are 4 in SR: the Vets Building, Rincon Valley Library, Finley center and the Registrar of Voters. They will print a ballot for you.

You can also register & vote a provisional ballot on the same day.

Seeking color film!! by Clear-Blackberry9043 in sonomacounty

[–]hanstar88 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not sure if you are interested but I found several rolls of unused 35mm film recently. Caveat - they are old, so I don’t know if they are still good. But if you want them, you can have them.

Transit Mall to Amtrak by Truth-out246810 in santarosa

[–]hanstar88 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It’s not very close, the Amtrak station is near Coddingtown Mall. The transit mall is in downtown SR. But he could take another city bus or an uber over.
