Astoria Historic Home Ownership

I’m hoping to speak with homeowners of historical homes in the area to better understand what owning a historical home in Astoria is like. If you own a historical home or home on the historical registry, I’d love to learn more about home maintenance and expectations! If you happen to know of anyone who can help, please let me know!

Thank you!!

Favorite dog groomer?

He have a large, long-haired dog. Unfortunately the mobile groomer won’t take dogs over 75lbs, and they’re booked for the year.

Ideally a smaller place, he gets overwhelmed when there are too many dogs in there.

Thanks!

Farmers market and dogs

I absolutely love the farmers market it’s a normal routine for me and my little pups.
However there were lots of not friendly dogs out this time.
Not once but twice while I was walking around I had two larger dogs start to sniff at my dogs and then immediately growl and bark lunge at them.
Did their rude ass owners say sorry no they just ignored me and walked away.
If I had any indication that the dogs were unfriendly I would not have let my dogs go near them, i actually usually keep my dogs pretty close two on leash one in a side purse. There are clear signs that dogs give when they are uncomfortable.
You could also hear dogs, barking and fighting throughout the market.
This really bums me out because my dogs love walking the market and how am I supposed to feel safe if there are unsafe owners.

Best Area to View Confluence?

History nerd visiting your fine city next weekend and wondering what area is better to take in the confluence of the Columbia River and Pacific? The Oregon side, or the Washington side? I’m short on time so unfortunately can’t do both. TIA!

Tattoo artist recommendations

My husband and I will be visiting 5/24-5/25 and would love to get a tattoo while we are down there (not matching, no worries y’all). Do you have any artists you recommend in the area that do black and grey realism?

Do yall have any natural earth clay? And the color thereof.

Do any of yall watch that Andy Ward from YouTube? He takes dirt from the ground & actually refines it into real, usable pottery clay! I currently live in north GA, where natural clay is beyond plentiful. I plan on moving here sometime in the next 2 years, as soon as I save enough to survive♡ Will I be able to continue my crafts? And! If it's a yes; what color of clay is it?

I know this is a long shot, a rarity to find somebody that would know, but I'd figure I'd ask anyway. Especially since the main Oregon sub is kinda anti-touristy right now... :/

VIGILANTE HERO NEEDED AT SEVENTH AND OLNEY

Local hero please fix the signage at this intersection!!! The westbound on Olney “oncoming traffic does not stop” sign is INACCURATE!! It’s BOTH oncoming AND right turns off 7th into your lane.

Please hometown hero take a pickaxe to the sign. Or please hometown hero add a sign below the existing sign explaining the structure of the intersection. It’s too confusing for us pigeon-brained plebeians to navigate!!!
