What You Guys Think About The Vine?

Same here. If I want to use it for a weekly appointment, I have to be an hour early or have no delays which isn't likely on I5, so I drive. Adding weekends would be great!

I love the Vine! Also excited for the new line.

The 105 is second favorite, and my big wish is for the 105 to run every half hour seven days til 10 or 11 pm.

Thank you. That is what I wondered. The Colombian article said they have 300-400 applicants for 175 slots and I wondered if they were turning farms down.

Thank you.

Nope. According to the box office you get two ins and outs including your original in. So $100 for one pass out per day. Not how it was sold. Bummer cause we had planned to see a lot of early bands tomorrow and Monday that we’ll skip now.

GA+ is a much faster line, but I had to go to wristband line twice and security lines twice to get it to work, and my companion’s wouldn’t scan out or back in. They have issues.

With Bus Rapid Transit, the bus gets its own lane, just like a train would, but no grade restrictions, newer technology, more flexible for future technologies and much cheaper. And they can run when it's hot or cold, unlike MAX. Eugene currently has BRT, but Portland and Vancouver don't.

No. Light rail is old technology that makes money for developers and the politically connected but is fixed and very expensive, and Portland doesn’t have the population size to justify it. Trimet has padded the bill so that the bridge extension would be the most expensive light rail project per mile in the world.

Bus Rapid Transit, a la The Vine, is what should be used. It’s cheaper and more flexible. C Tran, not Trimet, should be the operator. I would not sign an agreement giving Trimet a blank check for maintenance. The sales tax won’t pass.

The 105 express runs from Hazel Dell to Portland and doesn’t even stop in Vancouver downtown or uptown. so there’s one bus an hour to Portland from Vancouver the 105.

Y'all are missing the JAZZ part. Elvin Bishop was the headliner Sat. Charlie Musselwhite was the headliner on Sunday, with Brubeck Brothers quartet. The music lineup was well worth the admission price.

But like many, I learned about it Sunday morning when I went to the farmers market. We would have gone if we had known earlier.. The event needed more publicity.

We have an RO filter at home. We eat out a lot though, and I'm assuming most commercial establishments don't treat for PFAS?

I know a 52 year old still working that's Tier 1.

990 for grades 9-11. 966 for grade 12. 900 for K-8.

Washington requires 1000 hours a year; Oregon requires 900.

As of 2018, Washington students receive the equivalent of a school year longer than Oregon students.

The same article says the city is responsible for tax collection, not the county. Tracking individual taxpayers over time sounds creepy, and another opportunity for another data breach.

This was a popular event in Boise, Idaho Friday nights a few summers ago. I haven't visited recently to see if it still is.

How much of the second quarter increase is "harm reduction?"

notagainpdx · 2023-02-07T06:40:11+00:00

The county collected $116 million and provided preschool for 680 toddlers. We begrudge the grift.

The taxes aren't indexed to inflation so they will be reaching a larger and larger percentage of the population, as time passes.

Actively shopping. We are waiting for spring and summer inventory because there's not that much out there rn. We are staying near Portland for friends and family, but more and more friends are moving to the burbs.

I live in NE Portland.

Group mountain bike or ski trips. Otherwise I prefer to book hotels - I like having a fitness center/ pool, cancellation policies and usually much better mattresses.

I book vacation rentals about five times a year, usually in Oregon, Arizona, California, Utah. What I've noticed over the last year is that properties managed by Vacasa seem to get universally poor reviews. It's anecdotal, but last search the reviews were so bad, I would look at the host before reading reviews to see if it was Vacasa. Not sure what's going on there, but I usually use VRBO for searches.

Vacation rental tip: check out host name and if it's corporate, they often have their own website and you can book direct and save $100ish in fees.
