Not OP, but thought it would be better here.

No Kings Rally on Saturday

Is the mayor of Logan really allowed to run for the Cache Water District? That seems weird....

i got the cutest sticker in my ballot today 😭😭 my bf got a different one and its not as cute so im very happy with mine teehee 🤭

I'm looking to have a large old home painted next spring/summer, but so far my only experience in town has been with smaller and slower jobs (individual painters with great skills, but I think the speed I need will take a team).

I'm wondering if anyone has any experience with a painting company who has the equipment and skills to do a larger job well, but fairly quickly. I'm hoping to get on the schedule now for next summer.

Thanks!

Peter Crosby and Blake Moore, candidates for Utah’s newly drawn 2nd congressional district (which includes Logan), debated last night at USU. Here’s the recording from the Utah Debate Commission:

https://www.pbs.org/newshour/politics/watch-live-utah-voters-hear-from-moore-crosby-in-midterm-house-debate

I was really impressed with Crosby’s thoughtful answers on everything from data centers to flock cameras and affordability and quite disappointed by Moore’s non-answers on these important issues.

I don’t dispute that Moore has gotten some good things done for Utahns. But he has also been silent and complicit in the face of so many policies that are harming us- like tariffs and the Iran war.

As Crosby told reporters after the debate,

”I think a distinct difference between [Moore] and myself really is boiled down to [that] Blake Moore is fine with the path that we’re on. I’m not. And if we’re going to have something different happen, we need different representation.” (Salt Lake Tribune)

Ballots are arriving today. I’ll be voting for Peter Crosby, who hasn’t been bought by big tech like Moore has (e.g., see FEC filings on Meta and Google contributions to Blake Moore through the Super PAC “Defending Utah Values”).

I hope you will consider voting for Crosby too! He truly seems like a great candidate with strong moral character- and he’s our neighbor here in Cache Valley (note Moore does not live in our district, the one he is running for).

This isn't my event, but I haven't seen it posted here and our beautiful area deserves to stay beautiful!

Come help out if you can!

Greetings, Loganites! I'm writing to share a few quick announcements from the Community Writing Center. We are open again for business! Walk-in hours are from 1:15-3:00 PM every Saturday. Our writing coaches are available to assist with resumes, cover letters, creative writing projects, application essays, and so much more! We're located on the third floor of Logan Library and will be open every Saturday this fall until December 12 (Holiday weekends notwithstanding.)

Also! I'm excited to announce an upcoming collaboration between the Community Writing Center and the Cache Pioneer Museum. Join us for our Writing Family Histories workshop on Thursday, November 5 at 6:00 PM! Location and other details are available on the attached flier. In this free workshop, participants will learn how to use literary techniques to narrativize their family histories. The goal of the workshop is to hone participants' storytelling skills while providing a fun space for writers to share their work and learn from one another. We hope you'll join us!

Honestly, I know there may be nostalgia associated with this place. But the real question is: how has it remained open for so long? The chicken was grey, everything was out of a can and tasted either cold or of heat lamp. My family and I always tease and have discussed this topic, and we joked that it was a money-laundering front.

I like it 🥶

Why do you guys think the current job market is so bad out here in Logan? I've been through several interviews for entry-level jobs that require BICSI 2 Copper and Fiber which cost over $5,000. I've got over 16 years experience making and running ethernet with the Army, but I can't get a job offer here because they want me to have Utah specific certifications instead of the ETA FOI certification I got through the Army.

Are there any alternative ways to get these specific certifications that will land me the jobs? At this point, I'm thinking of finishing up my Sec+ and commuting to Roy instead of supporting the businesses up here.

Hey all, with the weather turning I’m looking for anywhere indoors we can take our toddler that has places to play and/or other children.

Our first child is newly walking and we’ve been surviving these last few months on daily trips to the park. We don’t have a big house or yard or any family of friends near by so most days it’s the only time she gets out/sees anyone except for my husband and I.

My husband stays home with her during the day while I work, and I can tell that these last few days where they haven’t gotten out due to the rain have been rough on both of them. It looks like the Logan library does story time twice a week, but I’m struggling to find anything else. Of course, I’m sure there are moms groups in the area, but as mentioned, my husband is who is home with her during the day.

Anyone have tips or tricks on what have kept them sane throughout the winter?

New to Logan, would love some recommendations of somewhere that does ADHD testing for adults and accepts insurance. Thanks!

So what's the deal with the flock cameras at HD? I never signed up to live in a surveillance state.....I know i know my phone, my computer, literally everything with internet is tracking, watching, recording etc, but to me the flock cameras are in your face and it bothers me. If I park behind the camera on the south where there is parking available can it still see me from the north camera just off of 12th north or whatever it is. It's Noone business what im doing at HD and they can use ARTIFICIAL intelligence to study my transactions if they are so concerned.

Hey everyone, I was curious, if someone had a day job that they needed done, where do they hire their day laborers? When I was a kid growing up in Denver my dad would head over to the Home Depot and hire some guys to help him do jobs that he couldn't do alone (like place some heavy stones in his garden, since my dad had a bad back). And no, they weren't illegal (as far as we could tell) because most of them spoke perfect English and some of them weren't even Latinos.

Where can someone hire some people like this? My elderly neighbors need their fence replaced and I'm having a tough time getting the concrete out of the ground and need to hire a few extra people to help me.

Any ideas?

Who’s the best in town or near? Need it by end of this week (previous person fell through).

Logan may welcome data centers — if they stay significantly smaller than a new Target

Hey! I’m new to the area, 40yo F.
Military PCS brought me here.
What’s there to do?

A couple of months ago I saw someone mention a bookstore coming to Cache Valley but I haven’t seen anything since. Does anyone know anything about this?
