This is my fourth vehicle…read moreI've purchased out of state, and I can honestly say this was by far the easiest experience I've had. North Bay Vehicle Registration Service was outstanding to work with from start to finish. They were professional, efficient, and extremely knowledgeable about the entire process. Angela handled everything seamlessly, kept me informed along the way, and made sure there were no surprises. What can often be a complicated and frustrating process was handled quickly and correctly the first time. If you're buying a vehicle out of state or need help with registration, I highly recommend North Bay Vehicle Registration Service. They truly go above and beyond to make the experience smooth, straightforward, and hassle-free.

what a great juvey!…read more i've been here twice, but the first time was only for a few days so i didn't get to really enjoy my stay. the second time though, i was here for almost 2 months. the details of my incarceration isn't as important as the date, december 23 1997. 2 friggin days before xmas i get arrested. stay off the drugs kids! so in juvey you first get processed. they take your clothes, itemize your belongings, and stick you in a glass box for a half a day. for me they made me take out all my piercings, which was horrible since they didn't have any of the proper tools. then you get moved into one of the many halls. each hall has 20-30 kids each. i was one of two white kids in my hall. but that worked out to my advantage. i was only 17 but had completed high school. so during the day all the other kids would be in "school" and i would just hang out by myself and read. i read so much i read literally every book that was there. the staff flat out loved me. i was nice, polite, and never started shit. after my first few weeks there, i had a radio in my room, a game boy, got to shower first by myself, first dibs on new clothes and some of the night crew would let me out to watch tv with them. the best/worst part was the food. i came into juvey pretty strung out and hadn't really been eating. then in juvey i got 3 meals a day! i was so happy. but the food was so bad i had to salt and pepper everything. that ultimately led to a serious multi year long salt addiction. on xmas night, some church ladies came and gave us presents and a turkey dinner. i got a gift card to a store in the local mall. i had to wait for the following year to use it, ha! after my two month stay, the courts ordered me to a 12-18 month long residential drug treatment program. it was either that or face a felony drug charge. so i did the rehab. so if you're a kid, please, please fuck up as much as possible BEFORE you're 18. juvey is a walk in the park. once you're 18 you're pretty effed in the A.

So, I call up Howell Mountain Mutual Water Company in hopes of settling a bill that claims money is…read moreowed despite having documented proof that it was settled in September of 2013 when I moved out of state. Here is my conversation with the woman that answered the phone. I wish I had recorded it. Me: "Hi, I'm getting a notice that I owe almost $200 for an account that was settled last year. Can I please stop receiving these notices? I have a letter stating the account is settled." Operator: "Ma'am, the business hours for the billing department are 9 am to 5 pm. You will have to call back during business hours." Me: "Oh, I'm sorry, I'm in Massachusetts. What time is it now in California?" Operator: "3:58 pm." Me: "Great, then I would love to talk to the billing department." Operator: "Ma'am, they aren't available. They have irregular hours. They are usually in by 9 am." Me: "OK, 9 am until when?" Operator: "They are irregular hours." Me: "So when am I supposed to call?" Operator: "Ma'am, I can't answer that." Me: "OK, can I leave a message and my phone number so they can call me when they are in?" Operator: "Ma'am, we cannot accept messages. We don't do that. You needed to call back during business hours. They are usually here by 9 am." Me: "Great, so I can call at 9 am to speak with someone." Operator: "They are usually in at 9 am, but the hours are irregular, so they might not be." Me: "Um... ok. So do you recommend I call at 9 am? Should I call at 11 am?" Operator: "Ma'am I can't answer that. They keep irregular hours." Me: "You are aware that you sound ridiculous, right?" Incompetence at it's finest. Lucky for them, Angwin is all about monopolized business, so my complaint will have no effect. Still, it's nice to know that hopefully after I manage to get on the phone with the billing department I won't have to deal with these morons again.

Hi! I'm Katy (Henriksen) Lee, the new Clerk at the Camp Meeker Post Office (started June 25, 2018)…read more I've lived in Camp Meeker since 1999 and I know how fiercely we defend our identity as a village. My goal is to make the post office awesome! I aim to get everyone in our village to come to the Camp Meeker post office. See you there! :) Katy

The last clerk at the Camp Meeker Post Office did a really good job of deterring me from doing any…read morepostal business there. The previous Clerk had created an atmosphere that was so off-putting I made my mate pick-up the mail - even if I was in the car! Fortunately for the residents of Camp Meeker the postal clerk didn't like us either and now we have Katy. Katy Lee has restored the sense of community our little post office once had. Even better she actually tries to deliver the mail and isn't rude to anyone and doesn't threaten to send back your mail if you haven't had the opportunity to pick up your mail in awhile. Her cheerful hello and can do attitude makes me feel confident that I can actually mail a package from Camp Meeker and it will get there. On Wednesday I did just that and spent a whopping $41. Might not seem like a lot but every little bit counts. I know our little post office must have lost a lot of revenue in recent times due to the reduced hours, closing for construction and more recently a very hostile postal clerk. It's been smooth sailing with Katy Lee on board. I recently heard Katy is up for a promotion - job well done- but if she accepts the promotion she will be transferred!!! Katy wants to stay at the Camp Meeker post office and is willing to forgo a raise because she is committed to doing a good job but she shouldn't have to. She's generated a lot of good will and good feeling around our little post office, losing her would be really be detrimental to our little town. (Yes, Camp Meeker is actually a town) Everyone has signed a petition in hopes of keeping her. We're all hoping she'll be able to stay because it's really nice getting your mail and not having to go elsewhere to conduct postal business. Imagine if you will getting your mail, help from a nice postal clerk if you need it, being able to mail something and know it will get there and running into friends along the way who are feeling happy after picking up their mail because the clerk is kind and friendly. That is reality today at the Camp Meeker Post Office. Sounds nice right? So no we don't want to lose Katy...

I'm not in the habit of reviewing City Departments, but this one deserves a review. Unfortunately,…read morelike many of us, Ive become accustomed to bureaucratic inefficiencies of city services or expectant that every police officer or firefighter is an everyday hero, doing extraordinary things on a routine basis.... But, every once in a great while something odd happens...something that flips the norm, and that something has happened twice to me recently. No its not a bad cop story or good parking attendant story..its way less sensational that that...just me needing the City of Santa Rosa's Public Works Department to fix a water leak in the street and pick up an abandoned trailer left in front of my house.The water leak wasn't gushing and that abandoned trailer wasn't an safety issue...but I was concerned enough to make a call. Here's the amazing part...both times I called were on SATURDAY..both times the call was actually answered by a real, live...NICE person...and both times they sent out crews...nice, competent, professional crews, to deal with the problems. Obviously, I was amazed. So...big thank you to who ever is running this department and the folks working there. I highly recommend calling them if you have a Public Works concern in the City of Santa Rosa... they may or may not be able to resolve your issue but, at least they're responsive and kind in the process.

Parks and green areas are there for you to enjoy after trying some restaurants. The downtown area is cute and intimate and very pleasant.

Pliny the Younger season is still in session for a couple more days - if you live in the bay its a once a year opportunity that you should jump on if you can. Live a little. Parking is abundant and free after 6pm. There are tons of lots and garages and it shouldn't be an issue. They say that any neighborhood with a Barnes and Noble is a good one. This must be amore affluent area than I first imagined. I suppose Santa Rosa is within reasonable distance to San Francisco that people may choose to commute in. I tend to think its at the edge of being considered part of the bay area. I think downtown Santa Rosa could be a destination for you.
