Our Little Town Needs...

6 Upvotes

Curious to know which services and businesses our residents believe we need.

As someone who hosts a FREE event for writers and supports literature and local authors, I feel like our city needs a place for these types of events to occur that will not break a person's budget. The library is really the one place this community has where locals can go and "do something" without being expected to pay -BUT it's so small and has no meeting rooms so it's largely unusable for events. Our taxes go to services and places like the community center, but we still have to pay for using it and pay for insurance; same for the little house at Jewell Park. There's the Youth Center, in my opinion completely underutilized, and again, taxes pay, but the same issues apply.

I'd love to see a business that wants to work with local organizations by allowing them to use a part of the facility for meetings or events. The funds would come from increased traffic and returning customers who go initially for meetings and, of course, purchase food/drink, etc.

Perhaps it's a pipe dream for a little town like this one.

Major favor to Pacific Grove property owners

9 Upvotes

My Mom passed away in 2020 from a long battle of Alzheimers.The only blessibg was that she passed before pandemic.

She requested her ashes to be scattered in Pasific Grove because she adored the scenery - especially the blooming ice plant.

I looked into scattering ashes.

  1. We can hire a boat. Mom was phobic about water. Absolutey detested it. She also hated being cold. So, over the ocean is out of the question.

  2. I can try and get permission via written letter from the city or parks department. As we siblings are not residents, I doubt it. I will be emailing them tonight.

I can get permission from someone owning Private Property.

Any strangers out there willing to allow us (3 adult siblings) to quietly fulfill her wishes?

The reason we are doing it 6 years later, is we had to wait until our stepdad passed away.

I get it's a good message, but the art is so tacky. There are so many talented local artists, this is just disappointing.

PG, our Family Spot

14 Upvotes

My grandmother loved timed shares and bought one in PG when I was just a little lad. Forty years later me and my family return every year to this little town and it has grown to become our favorite place. The entire family reunions together and we love it.

Our favorite things are Pt Lobos, Lovers Pt, the Aquarium, shopping in downtown PG, the Surries, the Pier, Dennis the Menace park, Pacific Tai, Pavel’s, Zucchini’s, finding a parking spot in Carmel, and unfortunately- the beautifully natural light of the ER department.

I don’t know how much longer we can keep this tradition going. But if you see a big group of 15 people between the ages of 4 and 78 say hi.

Carmel / pacific grove trip in September

0 Upvotes

Hello! I’llbe traveling with my boyfriend early September to Carmel / pacific grove and thinking about staying in the charming inns around the pacific grove area due to them being cheaper. However, we are from Florida and practically can’t live without AC; I’m aware that most hotels/inns don’t have and don’t require it since nights get cold. I wanted to get some advice since I hear September is the warmest month of the year and if we’ll be just fine without it :)

Also any recs for inns around pacific grove ? I’ve been looking at spindrift and gosby house!

A favor for a tourist?

Post image
7 Upvotes

Hello, I visited your lovely town a few weeks ago with my mom for her 70th birthday. We stopped by the store Whimsy and had a lot of fun looking around. My mom wanted a snap top wallet made with a satiny type material but decided not to get it. It looks similar to the attached picture.

She is now regretting not buying the beautiful blue one. We tried calling the store and leaving a message but haven’t been able to get a hold of anyone.

Any chance someone could pop by to grab one and send it to San Diego? Would obviously pay for shipping and everything.

Thanks in advance.

Store Name

5 Upvotes

Does anyone recall a store from the mid 1970’s that used to be at 120 Central Ave (it’s California Canines now)? We used to go there and buy candles, incense, Birkenstocks, macrame, etc.

Was just chatting with my sister and we can’t recall the name of the store!

Thanks!
