City of Groveport Capital Improvement Program (CIP)
In coordination with City Administration, the Engineering Department prepares a Capital Improvement Program (CIP) for review and approval by City Council and then puts this CIP plan into action by supervising planning, design and construction of projects. The CIP includes important City infrastructure projects to improve our public streets, our public utilities and water production and distribution infrastructure.
Annual Street Maintenance Program
The City's 2017 Street Maintenance Program is scheduled to be awarded in late spring. More details will be posted as the plans are finalized.
Hendron Road Reconstruction Project
The City will be starting the Hendron Road Reconstruction Project (OPWC Project Number CC02T and CC03T), in late spring of this year. Plans are being finalized to reconstruct Hendron Road from Main Street to Marlowa Drive/Glendening Drive. The reconstruction project will include storm sewers, curb and gutter, sidewalks, a new 12" water main, and new street lights. The project also consists of adding sidewalks on the west side of Hendron Road from Marlowa Drive to Cherry Blossom Drive. Construction will coincide with the Groveport Madison Local School District school schedule, and will begin immediately following the last day of classes at Glendening Middle School. Construction at the intersection of Glendening is scheduled to be completed by the first day of classes in August. More details and construction updates will be posted.

Automobile Body Repairing & PaintingAuto Repair & Service PLEASE READ!! My husband and I are both physicians in Knoxville (KCC never knew this BTW). We are very detailed oriented. My husband also once worked as a quality control manager at a large body shop and when we read the reviews of KCC- we almost decided not to take our car to be repaired here. I AM GLAD WE DID. However, our relatives in Knoxville have had their car repaired four times in FOUR years at KCC (yes, very unfortunate for them!) and they had nothing but positive things to say about the service and job they received. We went ahead and had KCC repair our car and we are both VERY pleased with the job. I truly wonder if some OTHER body shop is doing fake reviews? Seriously. I have learned that when reviews are this incongruous- all one's or five's and nont much in between- that someone MAY be trying to give the ""product"" a bad name? Well... in any case, in my experience, I was called two times with an update about the car- was given a price quote at the beginning and was charged ONLY that. The repair was done spotlessly. My husband will notice a VERY minor scratch on my car and he thought it was perfect. The color was spot on. The car runs as well as it did before. There are no complaints from me. The other customers in the waiting room were satisfied with their service as well when receiving their cars. I would recommend this repair shop hands down. \r

Broke the windshield, popped the airbags, bent the frame, etc...without question I had it towed directly to them because of the service they provided my son. Not only did they do a great job and provide the same great treatment...they also worked with me to save my deductible and then some! Who would have thought, I had a wreck and made money!!

Automobile Body Repairing & PaintingAuto Repair & ServiceAutomobile Parts & SuppliesUsed Car Dealers I recently purchased a used car from Rice Buick in Knoxville and had a wonderful experience. The salesman, David Claiborne ( and the entire staff) was professional and personable. We went there to look at a 2006 Lexus RX 400h that was listed on the internet. We thought we were just going to look since it was the first one that was actually for sale that we had seen. I had spent many, many hours on the internet looking at various models and had decided on what I wanted and what I should have to pay.\r \r We had no previous experience with this dealership, so did not have much hope that a non-Lexus dealer would have a good car for us. My first inquiry was through the internet and we got a personal response back very quickly. When we arrived at the dealer we were introduced to a sales person, David Claiborne, who showed us the car and made us feel very comfortable.\r \r We were pleasantly surprised that the car seemed to be just what we wanted. We took it for a test drive! It was great. We then talked with David about price and about taking the car to the Lexus dealer to have it checked out.\r \r The next day we were able to schedule the inspection with the Lexus dealer and David came in on his day off so we could get the car for that purpose. The Lexus dealer checked it out and gave it a glowing recommendation. We returned to Rice Buick and continued our negotiations. We never felt pressured and put on the spot by David or anyone there. We feel like we got a great car at a great price and could not be more pleased with the whole experience.\r \r Like most people, we had dreaded buying a car, especially a used car. I had not wanted to buy anything for several years, but our car had been badly damaged by hail, so it was a necessity. David and the staff made our experience so pleasureable that I am writing this review so others will not hesitate to deal with the car dealer at anytime! Go there, buy a car, new or used. They will treat you well.

Automobile Body Repairing & PaintingAuto Repair & ServiceAutomobile Electric ServiceAuto Springs & Suspension I needed my front bumper repaired after the oil pan under my engine fell off and broke the bumper off of its screws. I had taken the car to my Toyota dealer in Knoxville and told them that I was paying out of pocket. The estimate they gave me was upwards of $1,000. So I took my car to the Joe Neubert Collision Center on 5th avenue, and told him that I was paying out of pocket. The estimate he gave me was under $300 even after replacing multiple parts. Not only did they do an excellent job of re-attaching the bumper seamlessly, but at no extra cost they repaired dents in the bumper. I got the car back the next day and it had been washed and waxed and made to look brand new. I am incredibly happy with their service and attitudes, and have recommended them to everyone I know. The lifetime warranty has given me peace of mind and confidence in their work.

Playmobil - yes or no?
(19 Posts)So DD wants the Playmobil Princess Castle for Christmas. Its ££££ (in our house you only get one big gift so its not an issue) so I want to make sure I am getting my moneys worth. Neither of my DS's have been into playmobil so I am not sure.
Hi that's pretty expensive for a first piece, how about getting her this and a few of the furniture sets to go with it and see if she likes it enough to get her the bigger castle for next year or next birthday?
My DS like their Playmobil, but it's all or nothing, they'll play with it obsessively for a few days then nothing for a few weeks.
In regards to money's worth Playmobil imo are the good value, robust and there's lots of scope for imaginative play.
Also do check Prices as they go up and down especially on amazon, and they have deals on the Playmobil official store (end of line, boxes abit battered)
Hope that's helpful
its often £60 if you keep an eye out
maybe try the smaller carry along type ones first?
My 7 yo DD has that castle.
It takes up a lot of floor space. You can't really dismantle it as it takes so long to build (seriously about 2 hours!) so you need to have it up all the time.
It's quite fragile and falls apart easily, and it's difficult to rebuild.
The accessories are very small and fiddly.
The extra sets you need to buy if you want to furnish it means it's v expensive.
So I would only recommend from about age 5/6 + and if you have plenty of space to keep it.
That said it has a lot of play value if your DD is into that sort of thing.
How about one of the smaller Playmobil castles, the unicorn ones, instead? Still plenty big enough but much less expensive?
If you can afford it then playmobile can be excellent.
We've had quite a bit of it in my house but not that item.
I would agree with the comments - needs an adult to help build, is fiddly, little bits will keep falling off and getting lost and only buy it is you have the space to keep it up all the time.
If you keep the box, instructions and don't lose too many little bits it does retain it's value well for resale.
I would say playmobile is good for children age 5-8 or 9.
DD is 6, so I do think she is the right age, and we have the space.
She can be a bit clumsy though, maybe one of the smaller castle sets might be better?
I am put off that castle as it is not furnished, and the furniture for each room is sold separately making it an expensive gift.
I would definitely go for one of the smaller houses and castles, or the shopping mall or hotel that are furnished.
I have a house full of playmobil, it's fantastic for imaginative play.
I like Playmobil, it's well made, but bear in mind that it's designed so that pieces come off rather than break off; so if you're not the person building it for the first time, you won't know how to put it back together again!
I like the playmobil figures, but hate the actual buildings, none of them stay together and I get sick of the constant re-building! Personally, I'd look at other castles that come in one piece and then get the playmobil figures/accessory packs to go with it.
Advent Calendar
Secret Play Box
My DD (5) has the advent calendar, it is still up from last Christmas and she loves it.
She also has the Secret Play Box which get a lot of use.
She would love the Castle but already has the Grand Mansion. The Mansion gets a lot of use but the furnishing of it cost a lot on top of buying it.
Nothing has broken yet, in fact the stuff my brother and I had as children 30+ years ago is still in good condition.
6 is a good age.
Part of the pleasure is the building of it and definitely your daughter should be involved in building it.
If she wouldn't have the patients for building (like lego) then MyMummyRuns suggestion is good.
So depends a lot on your DD.
We got it for DD last Christmas (she was 3.5) and she loves it.
It took me far more than 2 hours to put together, and was a pain to wrap up, but it's really good.
DS got her one of the rooms (he was too young to actually choose/ buy anything) and other family members got her room sets, so she had about 1/3 to 1/2 furnished. Then more for her birthday.
It's a lovely set. Although I was glad to get it on offer.
I highly rate playmobil.
My dd is 13 and obviously wouldn't play with her playmobil with her friends anymore but still arranges into little displays when she wants some down time. There's currently a show of some kind going on at the school
I would agree about the falling apart bit. DS has a big playmobil castle- it is sort of dismantled now and he plays with sections rather than the whole thing together as it comes apart so easily. There are bits of abandoned castle everywhere. I would've bought more playmobil because he loves the figures but I do think they need to redesign how they get put together.
I would go for one of the smaller ones- less sections to fall off.
Mmm I personally don't really rate playmobil.... I think the sets are too tiny fiddly and fall down all the time! I think the advent calendars are OK but that there are better ones out there.
Personally I prefer the different sets (peppy pig world, Ben and holly world, Sophia the first castle, mix and match dresses, shopkins etcetc) but each to their own
Wtf is peppy pig ... Peppa
My kids (almost 9yo boy and almost 6yo girl) love Playmobil, but the larger buildings don't get used anywhere near as much as all the small bits combined in various unexpected ways. Normally they build castles/prisons/zoos or whatever with Magnatiles instead of the Playmobil buildings they have. I would suggest getting a smaller structure (if any at all) and add plenty of furniture/accessory sets instead. A smaller building has the benefit that she can move it around to be combined with different things for different scenarios which is what my children and their friends always seem to do.
Actually, another possible smaller/cheaper castle (that my daughter has) is the Djeco "Castle of Wonders" (eg here www.gentlyelephant.co.uk/djeco-castle-of-wonders-3d.html) that is very pretty, quite small, sturdy (thick shiny cardboard), can be moved around no problem and fits the Playmobil scale perfectly. This could be combined with loads of accessories/figures (that's what my daughter got for Christmas last year :-), much played with still!).

text: Alden Bates' WeblogFeigning normality since 1973Moonbases alpha and betaFiled in: Transformers. I love poking around in the corners of Transformers canon. Last night I was watching the Super-God Masterforce episode "God Ginrai - Into the Sky!!" and suddenly realised that the moon base captain who appears in a couple of scenes was the same guy as the commander of the Lunar Base in the Victory episode "The Brave Hero of the Universe - Star Saber". It's probably just a case of the animators pulling the character models out of a drawer - the crew exosuits and even a satellite are also duplicated across the two episodes. It's also kinda implied in the Masterforce episode that the moonbase crew were all killed. They're not mentioned as having been rescued, and the last time we see them, they're all zapped with Mr Freeze gun. Since they were all wearing space suits, it's probably feasible that they somehow survived, and since the commander turns up later, I guess it's canon. Left: Victory, Right: Super-God Masterforce It's a kinda cool bit of continuity between the two series, though I have to pity the poor guy - he was put in charge of two different moon bases, and both times the Decepticons came and blew them up.

MelissaAugust 2016Very quiet place with private entrance, which was convenient for us.
MartinOctober 2016What a great intro to Airbnb. We enjoyed the country setting and the quiet! The view out the window was also fantastic. Very comfortable and clean. Paul and Pauline were very welcoming.
SueJune 2016We really enjoyed this brand new private suite and its hosts. Nestled on five countryside acres, we found the room quiet, spacious, attractive, and clean, with a private entry and nice views of surrounding bucolic pastureland. Pauline and Paul were very gracious and easy to talk to and helpful finding some nice local back roads for cycling.
KathyMay 2016This was our first experience with Airbnb & I can guarantee you, it won't be our last! What a great way to travel! Our hosts, Paul & Pauline, were wonderful ... very gracious, charming hosts! The "apartment" was cozy, warm, roomy, charmingly decorated and was everything we needed. Quiet location, beautiful scenery our of the windows. We were within 3 miles of downtown Junction City, so very close to shops, stores, etc. Very happy to find such a wonderful place in a small community. We'll be back!

I stayed in Leif's home for one night, along with six friends of mine. We did not decide to spend the night in Eugene until short notice and Leif was very accommodating to us. His house was clean, spacious, and comfortable. In addition, Leif spent some time with us and was himself very nice and sociable. I would certainly recommend this home to future guests.
ChristopherMarch 2016Leif's home is wonderful. My family of four, plus my parents, stayed here and we were all very comfortable. It was obvious that Leif works hard to maintain his home exceptionally well for his Airbnb tenants. The neighborhood is quiet and beautiful. Everything went very smoothly. Thank you Leif!
AbbieOctober 2016Leif's house is warm and cozy and he made us feel like we were at home. He was quick with any requests and was accommodating to last minute requests.
BrianJanuary 2017We had a great time at Leif's house. Very nice house in a good neighborhood and clean interior. I would highly recommend staying here. Jan
JanJuly 2016Great house! Came for a conference with a group of students. House was spacious and comfortable. Enjoyed our trip. Would stay again.
Jessica March 2017Leif was there upon our arrival, and was a real pleasure to talk with. He was very personable and made us all feel right at home. The home was very quiet and comfortable, we would definitely stay there again. Great guy, very accommodating, and easy to work with.

StephanieJanuary 2017The Kalmia Cottage was quite comfortable for 2 adults or 1 adult and perhaps 2 small kids. The kitchen is fully equipped. The bathroom is a bit small, but operable.
MichaelNovember 2016This cottage was perfect for a quite trip to visit family in Junction City and Corvallis. It is very convenient to a grocery store, has a fenced in front yard and a full kitchen. We had an enjoyable stay for Thanksgiving and I would definitely recommend Patti. She was responsive and helpful and had the place ready for us after a lung drive from Seattle, which I greatly appreciated! Thanks, Patti!
ErinDecember 2016Patti was such a great host. We requested to arrive a little earlier and she was super flexible. The cottage was adorable, and had everything that we needed for our few days there. It's ideally suited for a couple, but we made it work, mostly because the bathroom is in the bedroom. But, really, not a big deal.

April and Alan's cabin is terrific! It's set off the road in a very quiet spot, surrounded by trees and vineyards. Their property has some trails and a small pond, and was a great place to explore with our dog. They were terrific hosts, and even left us a fresh baked loaf of banana bread as a welcome greeting! We'd definitely recommend this spot to our friends.
MarkJune 2016Love this place! My mom and I stayed for a weekend, and it is the perfect get away place. The vineyard is beautiful and peaceful. The house was clean, and well stocked with anything you would need, and the bed was really comfortable. Alan is a great host. When we arrived there was a fresh loaf of homemade bread and granola on the counter. The refrigerator had fresh yogurt, cream, and cheese. There was coffee, tea, wine etc.. We also used the pass for free wine tasting at the nearby vineyards. Alan even invited us to observe the grape harvesting in the vineyard across the way. The only thing I would change is I would stay longer next time. It is such a relaxing house and setting.
RebekahSeptember 2016Great getaway destination for outdoorsy couples. Very accommodating, complimentary banana bread and tasty dog treats were waiting for us upon arrival. Wineries all around, quiet relaxing weekend spot. Definitely will be returning:)
LindseySeptember 2016Alan and April met us as planned and showed us the cabin. They left us with some homemade banana bread and a nice bottle of Pinot Noir from their winery. Both were great. We liked this place because it is quiet and close to Corvallis (about 30 minute drive). We would stay here again.
MichaelNovember 2015We just returned from a fabulous weekend at Bellpine Vineyards Guest Cottage and are already planning our next stay. April and Alan gave us a warm and friendly welcome and shared helpful info. The cottage is private, clean, cozy, delightfully decorated with colorful artwork, a touch of sophistication, and has everything we could hope for a relaxing country get-a-way, including fresh flowers. There are numerous wineries nearby and we could even take a walk through the woods to a nearby tasting room. The hosts live a short walk away on private property if we were to need anything. Next time I'd like to stay an extra day with a good book and just hang out while my husband plays golf down the road. The coffee was excellent. We enjoyed the sound of the rain at night on the metal roof, and the sunshine outside with our coffee in the morning. Highly recommend.
Kim and TroyAugust 2015Peaceful, quiet setting. Nice, cozy little cabin with little "extras" that made us feel welcome.
SuzieFebruary 2017This was a beautiful, romantic, rustic getaway for our anniversary. April and Alan were fantastic hosts, and the cabin was spotless and tastefully decorated. It is abundantly clear that they have put a lot of thought and effort into ensuring a positive experience for their guests, and that payed off in dozens of small ways over our trip. The Prairie Mountain Group wine tasting passes for local vineyards was a highlight, as were the morning visits from local deer. The only two cautions I would add (though far far from dealbreakers for us) are these: 1) The well water is pretty sulphuric: expect to smell a bit like a deviled egg after your shower. 2) The sleeping loft requires a bit of flexibility to enter and exit. This is perhaps not a great property if you have mobility or balance problems. Overall, neither of these detracted from an incredible long weekend in a beautiful and underappreciated corner of Oregon.
KyleAugust 2016Everything was perfect! Alan and April kept in constant contact with us. They we're the perfect hosts! Even got some amazing bread when we arrived. There home is beautiful.

Mary is like a family member you looked forward to visiting in the summer as a kid. Super attentive, caring and attuned to guest needs, Mary made her home feel like a vacation away. Her other guests added to the atmosphere of friendly family, specially with her cuddly pets. I really appreciated the excellent breakfast, and would recommend you take her up on tasting Dave's Killer Bread, it really is, well killer. Highly recommended home away from home.
RogerJune 2014Great place to stay and we felt welcomed. We'll come again.
JeffJuly 2015We thoroughly enjoyed every minute of our stay with Mary. We felt like we were staying with "a friend of a friend." Our room was comfortable, breakfast was ample and tasty, and co-hosts Lucy and Smokey a lot of fun. Mary gave us a tour of her facility and visited with us on the deck . We will enthusiastically recommend her to anyone who asks. Thank you, Mary!
VickiSeptember 2014This was a wonderful 2 days for us before we headed home on a weeklong road trip! Our 3 girls loved Lucy (the dog), the cats, and watching the horses in the morning. They spent most time we were there outside playing with Lucy. Mary was a great hostess, even lending us a tube to float down the river in Corvallis (only 30 minutes away) to beat the heat. Home was very comfortable and fit our family great! Thanks Mary!
peggyAugust 2015She welcomed us into her home and she assisted us with parking our horse trailer. Her property is immaculate, clean and organized. Her home is warm, inviting and cozy. We felt like we were at home. Mary accommodated us by cleaning the quirks on the bed to ensure that there was no cat dander in the room because of my allergies. I have to report that even though I have serve allergies to cats I had to issues in her home. We were out most of the day and when we arrived later that evening she had our room ready with fresh water. We slept very well on the bedS which were very comfortable. Her breakfast was nice with fresh fruit, toast and lots of coffee. She has a wonderful farm that if you just wanted to spend the day there and enjoy it you could. We look forward to coming back again.
ShareenJune 2016Stayed with Mary during the Mom's weekend at OSU. She was a gracious host and her place was a wonderful countryside retreat. I would definitely recommend this place.
MaryMay 2014My stay was perfect. The room was exactly as it was described. Mary was very welcoming. I would not hesitate to return.
AliceAugust 2014Mary and her place are great. I was in a quiet and secluded room where I could get some great sleep. She's a friendly and accommodating hostess. Would recommend to anyone interested in exploring this part of Oregon.

Tami and Nate are warm and friendly. I was a single woman traveling alone and that can be very frightening but instead I ended up making two wonderful new friends. Glad I stayed here! Definitely planning on doing it again.
RuthOctober 2016I absolutely adore Tami and Nate!!! They are exceptional hosts and their villa is a hidden jewel that is worth every moment of your stay!! As breath taking as the villa is nothing can compare to the loving hearts of Tami and Nate. They are attentive, thoughtful and engaging. Tami and Nate will also give you all the privacy you may want but personally I treasure every moment I got to spend with this amazing couple!!Tami and Nate make this place so very special while making you feel special!!! Thank you so very much for a wonderfully refreshing time. Bountiful Blessings Always! Joyfully Jubilee
JubileeAugust 2016Tami welcomed us immediately. Actually this is a gated property so you have to call and have her open the gate. It is a beautiful property, but somewhat isolated. We would have liked to stay more than one night to really appreciate the property and the grounds.
CarolSeptember 2016Adam and I were traveling from Seattle on a spontaneous vacation for the weekend. We were scrambling around at the last minute for an affordable safe place to stay before the night came to the end. Tami and Nate were very responsive even though they knew we would be arriving very late into the night. Wow! The stay here was unforgettable, amazing, comfortable/cozy, and absolutely worth the experience. Tami and Nate are very passionate about their home, arts, even down to the fine details of the hand casted portions of their lovely home. This was a wonderful first experience and hopefully we can come back to visit or stay in the future on a spontaneous trip to Oregon!

This was my second stay at Mary's home, everything was great.
AliceJuly 2015Staying at Mary's airbnb in Junction City was like meeting a new friend. Mary confirmed our reservation quickly, provided clear directions, and graciously welcomed us when we arrived close to 10 pm due to travel delays. Mary is a delight. We had a chance to tour the barn, see her lovely horses, and play with Lucy the dog. Her home is spotless, the bed is so comfortable; there is a den with wifi, a back porch for sitting and sipping coffee or wine and watching the animals. Breakfast was very filling - good coffee, yogurt, eggs, toast, fresh fruit, fresh juices. We stayed for 3 nights for a nephew's wedding in Junction City. We would love to come back again to spend some time visiting local wineries.
JeanneSeptember 2014Mary was very welcoming and accommodating. I had a late arrival, but she was up and ready to greet me, even stayed up and visited with me for a while. The room and bed were very comfortable, with my own bathroom across the hall. The house was beautifully clean. Breakfast was just right: hard boiled eggs, yogurt, granola, dried cranberries, juice, toast. Anyone who loves horses would love this place. I was delighted to visit with Lucy, Mary's dog, though there were three cats to fill my lap if I wished. Mary supplied me with detailed directions that got me right to her place. From her website description, I was expecting a long driveway with a stock gate I'd need to get out of the car to open and drive through and then close again. Her place, however, is right off the highway and the gate in question is just feet from her front porch. Mary is a very warm and gracious host.
CarolMay 2016From the moment we drove up we were invited in with a wonderful smile and a personal tour. Although we had interrupted her lunch hour an she had been running around all day she took the time and made us feel very welcome. The bedroom set up was very quaint and homey, with plenty of closet space and fresh water with glasses in the room. The wifi was another spectacular thing, I could walk around the yard out back and admire the horses and watch football on my iPad with a VERY strong connection. We were primarily here just for a football game and apparently wearing the wrong colors, she mentioned that to us in a very funny way and that it would be chaos when we drove in to town. When we woke up the next morning refreshed and a light cinnamon scent in the air we were greeted with a hello and are you hungry. Me, always hungry jumped on breakfast starting with tea and honey. But also included: sliced fruits,natural yogurt,killer bread,cream cheese,coffee,eggs and the list goes on....we were not in a rush so we watched the first half on the Seahawks game and were walked out and she closed the gate behind us. Our only regret being that we did not take the time to truly enjoy what Mary had to offer with the main focus being the football game. We will for sure be back and look forward to the hospitality. Best wishes, Alex and Alicia
AlexOctober 2014The time with Mary, her friends and her horses was great!!
LissyNovember 2016Our stay with Mary was wonderful. Mary was well prepared for us with a comfortable room and yummy breakfast in her farmhouse. We were their with friends to attend the Junction City Scandinavian Festival. I highly recommend this spot for anyone who enjoys a rural atmosphere.
DoriAugust 2015Mary made our first airbnb experience easy and delightful. Fast confirmation, very thorough in her description of property, directions, neighboring/local connections. She has a wealthy bank of knowledge and like that long lost friend, she is enthusiastic and willing to share it, and make you feel welcome and comfortable. Mary was very attentive and flexible to accommodate our needs. Very clean, excellent mattress, barn tour was much appreciated as I considered traveling with horses to the area next time! If you are looking to be social, want to be treated like a family friend, and willing to share a love of animals (from near and afar), this could be that peaceful retreat. Mary shows a true love of people, and has found a niche for sharing her passion with others, and a way to branch out to offer travelers from all over a little peek at the farm life.
A.T.October 2014My two friends and I had a great stay with Mary at her cozy farmhouse! Before we had even arrived Mary made sure we had all the information needed to get there and asked all the right questions to make sure our visit was what we had hoped for. Mary is very familiar with a number of the wineries in the area and personally introduced us to many of the winemakers in the area. All of the personal touches, attention to detail, and desire to make our stay as enjoyable as possible were very appreciated! Would definitely recommend a stay here to friends. Highlights: Coziest, comfiest beds I've ever encountered at a B&B Gorgeous setting,amazing horses, and adorable goats! Close proximity to a number of quality wineries DELICIOUS and hearty breakfast Lovely, outgoing and welcoming host

Bruce and his wife were great hosts! My wife and I planned on staying at their cottage on the night of our wedding. My plan was to go there early and set up a few things for my wife, but that didn't happen, and we didn't end up showing up until after our party at about 11 pm. Bruce's wife was available at that time and helped us get settled in! We really appreciated how accommodating they were. Even though we were only at the place for a total of 8 hours ( we left the next morning at 7 AM for our honeymoon) we enjoyed our stay very much! The cottage was very clean and The bed was very comfortable. We would definitely stay here again!
BradleySeptember 2016The hosts were great. They made us feel very welcome. We got to know them and feel like they were friends. Both Jennifer and Bruce were very responsive to our needs. The rate was affordable and we would definitely stay there again. We have told all our friends what a wonderful experience we had. We felt right at home. Thank you Bruce and Jennifer
leahOctober 2016Don't even think about it, just book it! The cottage is absolutely adorable and every bit as wonderful as described. It was very comfortable and super clean. The shower is amazing! Bruce and Jennifer are wonderful hosts. I have an interest in living in a tiny home, so Bruce was kind enough to tell me all about the cottage, give me a tour of the tiny house he's building behind it, AND he took me to meet his neighbors who are also building a tiny house. I had so much fun talking tiny! The location is very convenient to all areas of town. Parking was easy as well. I highly recommend the cottage!
JeannaNovember 2015The Carraige house is really very lovely with all the amenities you can imagine. Bruce was very diligent about making sure I would have everything I needed to make myself comfortable. There's even a really nice guitar to play. I'd recommend this place to anyone who's looking for a wonderful place to stay while visiting Eugene. Great space.
NigelJune 2016Bruce was an amazing host. He made sure we had everything we needed (and more) and was very accommodating. The property was exactly what we were expecting and we adored it for the days we were there.
SylvieOctober 2015Our stay at the Park Ave Cottage was the perfect setting for a spontaneous getaway. Bruce made booking on short notice a breeze. The cottage is exactly as it's shown in the photos, everything was clean and organized with touches of their personality throughout. All of our questions were answered by detailed printouts about the cottage, how to use the appliances, and recommendations on where to eat. The bed was warm and comfortable, there is a big flat screen television with cable and netflix, and the couch in the living room area is big and comfy. The bathroom was very clean with a nice sized shower with a large shower head that poured like rain, the towels were soft and smelled fresh. We only stayed one night this trip but definitely plan to return in the future.
CorinaOctober 2015Bruce and Jennifer have created a really sweet cottage for their guests. The space is really well laid out and the beds were really comfortable. Bruce and Jennifer communicated really clearly before hand, so we knew just where to park, how to gain access, where to go for delicious foods, and how to wrap up our visit. There were lovely little snacks for us; we barely had a chance to consume them because we were out and about so much -- but it was a really nice, welcome touch. We were in town for a wedding and this was the perfect location for us. It was easy to find our way around by car and I enjoyed a nice walk along the nearby bike trail. To top it off, Bruce and Jennifer are really nice people and made this cottage experience just right for us. What a great weekend!
GinnySeptember 2016We stayed in the Park Avenue Cottage with our high school-aged son for a visit to the University of Oregon.

Raquel January 2017Hannah was just great--very sweet and hospitable. The roads were terrible and I could not predict my arrival time. Still, Hannah graciously accepted this and was fine with my unscheduled check-in time. She and her partner were SO helpful and hospitable in getting me comfortable and helping me locate a couple of stores and a medical office I needed to find the next day. Unfortunately Hannah was unaware of an ant problem in my room and bed. This made for an uncomfortable nights rest. When I mentioned it, Hannah insisted on a refund despite my protest. She felt terrible and said she'd take immediate steps to resolve the issue. I was so impressed with the refund and this gesture on her part. Thank you, Hannah. Sometimes things happen. But it's how you handled it that counts; that part was definitely five star professionalism!
JuddJanuary 2017Our stay was everything we needed! Hannah and Michael have a very cozy, comfortable, and clean space and were very accommodating of our needs. Also, their pets are super sweet and social.
SarahJanuary 2017Bonne adresse pour quelques nuits, calme, avec des hôtes accueillants et réactifs.
LeonieFebruary 2017If you love animals, this is the place to stay. Hannah and Michael have a super friendly dog and cats that love the extra attention from guests. One of the cats pushed open my door at night and slept next to me on the bed. It was the best bed warmer. The room was nice and clean and the bed was comfy. The shower was nice and hot. I'd gladly stay here again.

ElizabethApril 2016Julia is a thoughtful, generous, and good-natured host! The room I stayed in was quiet, clean, and attractive, and the rest of the house is cozy and charming. Julia is a great communicator; she got in touch with me as soon as I booked the room, and stayed in touch via text and email. She's also interesting and easy to talk with. Each morning I was there, Julia asked what time I wanted to eat breakfast and made delicious oatmeal and coffee. I arrived on the late side the first night, and Julia was gracious and easygoing. The house is in a safe, quiet neighborhood only a few minutes away from the Whiteaker district and not far from downtown. I'd definitely recommend this spot to any other solo travelers!
JessicaMay 2016This was my first experience with Airbnb and Julia was an amazing hostess! She greeted me warmly and made me feel at ease immediately. I arrived rather late and she was so gracious.... waiting up for me, helping me to carry in my things, showing me to my room, orienting me to her home and if that wasn't enough, she proceeded to brew me a cup of peppermint-chamomile tea ( which she had grown and dried herself - delicious!). We enjoyed a lovely conversation before we retired. The room was perfect with a very comfortable bed complete with a fluffy down comforter. There was a small table and chair in the room for writing, working on your computer or sitting to read(URL HIDDEN)had to get up terribly early in the morning and explained that she needn't get up (she had offered to fix breakfast for me), but she did get up and prepared a wonderful, tasty, hearty home cooked breakfast of oatmeal with an assortment of toppings, poached eggs and tea. Everything was so beautifully displayed in pretty bowls and dishes. I just can't say enough good things about my stay with Julia - from the booking process all the way through to the departure! I will definitely stay with her again when I need accommodations in Eugene. I highly recommend her to you!
christinaFebruary 2016Julia was very accommodating. She has a lovely home, and she was incredibly helpful. I felt comfortable and welcome. Sadly, my rear bike wheel was stolen from out front, despite that the bike was locked up. That was a bummer, so make sure if you have a bike, it's secure.
Jinnene June 2016Julia was a very friendly host and easy to get along with and chat with. The bed was just as described, perfect for me as a solo traveler. Very close to airport with simple and easy access, perfect for my stay for my flight out the next morning. Oh, and she is a musician and invited me to tag along for the evening to the bistro she was going to jam at, and had dinner with me . Met some nice friendly musicians who were going to join her to play.

Condo Storage Program
The Wheat Growers Condo Storage Program has a variety of offerings designed to meet the diverse needs of our patrons looking to reserve fixed-volume storage. Depending upon your grain needs, condominium-style storage may cost less per unit than building on-farm storage solutions.
Programs include traditional 5-year, 10-year and 18-year condo storage programs.
Sign-up now to get space! Contact your Wheat Growers location or click here to request more information.
Wheat Growers 2016-2017 Per-Bushel Condo Storage
5 Year | 10 Year | 18 Year | |
Initial Cost Up Front | $0.75 | $1.50 | $2.30 |
Annual Fee Charged | $0.17 | $0.17 | $0.15 |
Additional Storage Charge | 0.005/mo. | 0.005/mo. | 0.005/mo. |
Residual Value | None | $0.20 | $0.30 |
The Condo Advantage
- Producers can haul their grain from the combine to the elevator and are not forced to sell grain during harvest when basis is generally widest.
- Grain is weighed and graded as it comes in for immediate feedback on grain quantity and quality. Producers can also price grain and receive immediate payment.
- Store multiple commodities (corn, wheat or beans) and take advantage of government programs to either seal the grain and put it under loan or use LDP.
- Condo storage is an asset that can be sold if it is no longer needed.
- Wheat Growers pays insurance and property taxes.

The exhibition touches on the biblical metaphor of 'salt of the earth' with drawings and sound recordings for example that tell the stories of archetypal honest country folk. Predominantly though, the theme is explored in more literal terms, with work that looks at the local landscape, the marshes and the sea, often using salt as a material (crystallized, carved, ground or polished). Interestingly, many of the pieces use the earth as a starting point to venture into more celestial imagery and ideas. Ian Starsmore's installation (A Step at a Time) for instance is a peculiar assortment of carved ladders, poetry and etchings – all on a very small scale, but spiraling upwards past floor, windows and walls. Jane Wheeler's hand-built vessels are similarly ethereal, using earthy materials to create curious-looking implements that relate to such 'rituals' as Fermentation, Preservation and Fertilization.
Even Brian Whelan's religious paintings (You are the Salt of the Earth – The Light of the World) look exotic and almost otherworldly with their dazzling colours and intricate configuration. There is further humour in Colin Self's playful collage The Fishy Tale of the Battered Wife, complimented by more solemn elements such as his delicately detailed etchings of dead birds. Wildlife, earth, ocean and weather feature strongly in Salthouse 09, and they are all distilled most succinctly in Jo Hincks' linocuts that hang in a column reaching high into the church. Like a lot of the work in the show they use stark symbolism and a high level of craft to explore very down-to-earth struggles.
For me, it has been a chance to exhibit somewhere far away from a typical gallery or cinema, and with my video installation in the church pulpit I have experimented with my take on a uniquely changeable rural landscape.

I had some problems to place my lancettas in the room. The only possible area for the right speaker was kind of behind the fireplace (image). In that position the bass were totally put out when the speakers played in phase. If playing off phase the bass were there but the higher frequencies sounded strange. Then, after walking around in the room with the speakers without finding any good spots, I looked upp in the ceiling and decided to try that position. I mounted them temporary like this.
The result was fantastic and I decided to put them there permanently. Now the only obstacle was to persuade my girlfriend to hang up the speakers in the ceiling. I knew there was no idea just asking her if I could put them there so I decided a different approach. I suggested a nice baldachin with some spotlights to light up her paintings on the wall. She liked the idea alot and even after I mumbling something about maybe put some small speakers in it she was on This is the result. Yes I know I promised her spotlights but there will be time for that later on |

Hi h@kan,
i think you should keep your promise as soon as possible, because nobody likes to be kidded ... But i see the intergration of the speakers is very felicitous. Looks good, and as you said, it was the best place for listening too. I just wonder a bit, why you did not tilt your fullrangers downwards a little, to get some more brillance at the listening position. Cheers |

Could you please tell us more about the SET amp visible in the bottom left ? Is that a commercial 845 offering? Looks a bit like a Kaylin I saw in pictures somewhere but that used a pair of 300B tubes and octals like 6SN7's IIRC. Nice job on the speakers.

Superb gallery !
Seeing your work, I was wondering if there is a tradition of craftmanship in the field of audio in Bulgaria ?! Indeed I remember various posts of bulgarian builders, particulary the one using ETHER drivers and all there enclosures were beautifully crafted. Anyway congratulation for your work, that I suppose sound very good ! |

Christmas Present
My father asked for some small speakers for his office/retreat so he can hole up and listen to some tunes in there.
Thanks to Godzilla who keeps the plans for these little BRs on his website. Some scrap birch plywood, oak veneer and some old 40-1197 drivers and I'm done. They sound real nice for the small amount of work they represent. Happy Holidays! |

Fettuccine with Green Vegetables, Garlic, and Herbs
Fresh mint and lemon zest highlight the delicate flavors of peas, green beans, and zucchini strips in this veggie-laden dish.
Fresh mint and lemon zest highlight the delicate flavors of peas, green beans, and zucchini strips in this veggie-laden dish.
Make this hearty, homey pasta dish spicier by adding more chopped chipotle chile, if desired.
This easy no-cook tomato sauce calls for parsley, but can also be made with basil or chopped fresh fennel fronds.
This dish is easy enough for weeknight suppers, but elegant enough for casual dinner parties.
Serve this dish hot—the tofu sauce may lose its creaminess as it cools.
Everyone can enjoy this reliable bake-and-take casserole. It comes together quickly and can be made ahead and reheated. Use panko breadcrumbs, tossed with Italian seasoning, in place of the Italian-seasoned breadcrumbs, if desired.
Sprouts may seem like a strange addition to a pasta dish, but hearty types such as sprouted lentils, peas, and chickpeas give this sauce body and flavor. We've called for equally hearty spelt and buckwheat gemelli, but you can use your favorite pasta shape as well.
Erin Patton and her boyfriend, Mike Rabourn, turned their Northampton, Mass., abode into a test-kitchen while perfecting the "Neat Ball" for this recipe. An avid home cook, Erin enjoys creating meatless meals that appeal to all her guests. This great recipe received an honorable mention in VT's 2008 Reader Recipe Contest.
Truffle oil adds a luxurious flavor to the rich brothy sauce that coats slightly nutty-flavored, gluten-free quinoa fettuccine. If you don't have truffle oil on hand, try the recipe with walnut oil or a good-quality olive oil.
This salad can be made with any vegetables you have on hand in place of the peas and asparagus—just be sure to cut them into small pieces to blend well with the orzo.
Once you've tasted the concentrated flavor of fire-roasted tomatoes, you'll want to use them all the time. This recipe is a quick alternative to prepared pasta sauces that are often loaded with sodium and sugar. To substitute whole fire-roasted tomatoes, simply cut the tomatoes in the can with kitchen scissors before using.

Color, 1970, 352m. / Ink & Paint/Brentwood (US R1 NTSC)
There's no plot anywhere to speak of, but the show takes turns rotating between a stable of characters at Horrible Hall including the bony-looking Count Drac, the oddly effiminate "Frankie" monster, vampish Bella La Ghostly, and hip-talking teen lycanthrope Wolfie. When not spending time popping in and out of windows and secret passageways to dole out groan-worthy jokes (you could start a deadly drinking game by downing a shot everytime someone says "batty"), they all get together for some prime early-'70s bubblegoom pop songs like "Monster CookbooK," "Super-Ghoul" and the unlikely minor chart hit, "Chick a Boom." Since the show was modeled as a spin-off from The Archies built around the continuing character of Sabrina the Teenage Witch, the style of the music numbers doesn't stray too far off from their inspiration.
The Brentwood-released, three-disc DVD set from Ink & Paint features bright, clean, colorful transfers of 16 episodes from the Goolies' first incarnation (they were later revived for a solo 1975 TV gig); for the record, the episodes are "When I Grow Up," "Population Party," "Lights Out," "Goolie Garden," "MOnster Trio," ""Feed the Ghost Some Garlic," "Frankie," "What's in the Bag," "Goolie Picnic," "Where You Going Little Ghoul," "Gool School," "Save Your Good Lovin' for Me" (featuring the two best songs), "Darlin' Darlin'," "Shadows," "Witches Brew," and "Goolie Swing." Former Filmation workers and experts Darren McNeil and Bob Burns are among the participants on commentary tracks for a pair of episodes, along with producers and writers from the series. For 40 minutes total, they get in a lot of information about the show's genesis and marketing -- which is certainly a higher aspiration than the biggest video supplement, the 45-minute "Goolians: A Docu-Comedy." This weird, fragmented piece features some goofballs researching the show and talking to various fans, including the always welcome Alice Cooper and a Sacramento punk band, the "Groovie Ghoulies." A sing-along version of the main theme features Karaoke-style lyrics for your next Halloween party, and "Creation of Filmation" features an audio interview with producer Lou Scheimer explaining the company's earliest projects during its salad days. The set is rounded out with a hefty image gallery of cells and promotional art, liner notes by Shawn Sheridan (and an uncredited back page of additional facts), and DVD-Rom versions of the original episode scripts (which ain't exactly high-powered reading) and the original "Series Bible" for a proposed spin-off, The Kookie Spookies. As long as you don't plan on devoting an entire attention span, this is a fun diversion for monster buffs looking for some good, clean, brainless cartoon fun.
Inspired by the pun-happy success of such disparate monster-themed efforts as Scooby-Doo, Where Are You?, the hit song "The Monster Mash," and Forry Ackeman's Famous Monsters of Filmland, Filmation's animated Groovie Goolies threw in every horror-movie creation imaginable with a healty dose of Laugh-In-style gags. The results will probably confused modern kids, but '70s pop culture junkies should find a hearty fix in this Saturday morning curiosity.

Thane is presently is the action city where at least 25 builders are making close to 50 to 60 new buildings and one can imagine that every bit of area is under surveillance. Thane had a change over opinion when people started understanding the value of quality living and Thane certainly promises that. Although becoming like Mumbai but the life of the city is not that of a an average suburb. A lof of Malls, schools and builders developing quality townships has given the location a major boost. A lot of NRI investment is seen in this area. Having close proximity from both the eastern and western express highway has given the connectivity to Mumbai.

It features porn actress Charlotte Stokely seducing men into finding out how to "last longer" by touching themselves in certain ways. When they watch the whole thing, however, they discover she's giving them a quick tutorial on how to check their testicles for lumps so that they can "last longer in life." The film was created out of McCann Lima and ran on Pornhub to mark Fight Against Testicaular Cancer International Month. The video stealthily targets young men who are more interested in porn than health checkups, an important move since testicular cancer can first appear at the age of 15.

A FINAL judgment against former leader Silvio Berlusconi has raised political tensions in Italy, but left a fragile coalition in place for now amid a muted reaction on the financial markets.
"Government in danger," said the Il Messaggero daily on Friday, while Il Fatto Quotidiano said the uneasy alliance between Berlusconi's centre-right and Prime Minister Enrico Letta's centre-left was "a dead man walking".
Although Berlusconi loyalists had threatened mass resignations if the ruling went against him, they have been more cautious following the verdict.
"Silvio Berlusconi's legal woes will not be a problem for the government," said Mara Carfagna from Berlusconi's People of Freedom party.
"This anger we all feel must not boil over," she said.
The Milan stock market opened 0.14 per cent higher and the difference between Italian and German 10-year sovereign bonds - a key measure of investor risk - narrowed to 266 points from 269 points on Thursday.
Shares in Berlusconi's business empire Mediaset, however, fell more than 4.0 per cent at the start of trading.
The greater uncertainty is whether Letta will manage to contain growing discontent within his own Democratic Party about governing together with a coalition led by a confirmed tax fraudster.
Pippo Civati, a prominent party member, told La Repubblica daily that the government needed an "exit strategy" and that fresh elections should be held "within the next few months, not in two years".
Some leftists have also called for the 76-year-old Berlusconi to be expelled from his seat in the Senate as soon as possible in line with new rules against MPs and candidates with criminal records.
The country's highest court on Thursday handed the billionaire tycoon his first definitive conviction in a 20-year political career that has been dogged by legal woes and sex scandals.
The court ordered the three-time former prime minister to do a year of community service or be placed under house arrest once his parliamentary immunity is lifted - an unprecedented verdict for Italy.
The supreme court also said an appeals court should rule on whether he should be temporarily banned from public office, a decision that would eject Berlusconi from parliament for the first time since 1994.
An embittered and visibly shaken Berlusconi delivered a video message on Italian television late on Thursday in which he dismissed the sentence as baseless and vowed to continue his political career.
"For the commitment I have shown these past 20 years for my country and as I reach the end of my active life, I have been rewarded with accusations and a sentence based on nothing at all," Berlusconi said.
"This is a country that does not know how to be just," he said, speaking from his luxury residence in Rome, adding that the sentence "takes away my personal freedom and political rights".
The conditions of Berlusconi's sentence are to be determined, but he will need judicial permission to carry out political activities and is excluded from running for office for the next six years.
In any case the Senate will have to vote to lift Berlusconi's immunity before the sentence can be implemented - a process that could take weeks or even months depending on the political situation.
Berlusconi's lawyers, who have repeatedly condemned the legal attacks against him as politically motivated, said they were weighing a possible appeal at the European Court of Human Rights.
Letta also on Thursday called for calm "for the good of the country" as he struggles to lead Italy, the eurozone's third largest economy, out of its worst post-war recession.
The current government was installed following a two-month deadlock between Berlusconi and the Democratic Party after close-run February elections.
The case against Berlusconi revolved around the purchase of film distribution rights by Mediaset - the platform for his first entry into politics.
Berlusconi is still appealing convictions in other cases for having sex with an underage prostitute, abusing his prime ministerial powers and leaking a police wiretap to damage a political rival.
Prosecutors have also filed charges alleging that he bribed a senator to join his ranks in a move that helped bring down the government in 2008.
All other fraud and bribery charges against him over the years have either been overturned on appeal or have expired under the statute of limitations thanks to Italy's slow-moving justice system.

The Snow Queen - a movie review
At this time of year, we all need a new 'classic' winter family film to curl up in front of as the evenings start to draw in earlier.
Releasing in Vue cinemas on 25th October, and then on DVD from 3rd November is Signature Entertainment 's new film THE SNOW QUEEN.
Young audiences will be familiar with the Snow Queen story from the recent Disney smash Frozen, but this film is much more closely in line with the original Hans Christian Andersen fairy tale from way back in 1844.
The original characters from the book are here, and The Snow Queen follows the story of little orphan girl Gerda, who must defeat the evil Queen after she's taken over the kingdom and kidnapped Gerda's brother, Kai.
Accompanied by her adorable pet ferret, Luta, and Orm the troll, Gerda embarks on a perilous journey across the icy wonderland, facing swashbuckling pirates and treacherous trolls, in a race against time to defeat the wicked Snow Queen, save Kai and bring warmth back to the hearts of people across the land.
Like the original fairy tale, it's quite a dark story in places, and younger viewers may struggle to follow the plot. That said Ruby, aged 6 1/2 enjoyed it, and I think it's a film that will benefit from a few extra viewings. She struggled a little to keep up with Orm and his shape-shifting ways into lots of different animals.
Overall, it's a charming story of good triumphing over evil and perfect for this winter. The DVD would make a great stocking filler too.
If you'd like to, you can print this free activity sheet to take to the cinema with you when you go along to see it.
We were sent a pre-view copy of the DVD for the purposes of this review.

So funny, my daughter looks quite a lot like the little girl in the cartoon (her eyes aren't quite so big obviously) and she is in the school production this year. Any guesses what it is? DVD sounds great anyway! :)
ReplyDeleteLove a good movie at Christmas! We're huge Frozen fans in this house so might just have to check this one out x
ReplyDeleteWould you believe... I have still not even seen Frozen! I do have it for L for Christmas (she has seen it!) but am sure she would love to go and see this in the cinema too... may have to go and have a trek down there! :) xx Sim xx
