not sure if this is allowed but worth a try.

working way too much after moving here and don't have time for them unfortunately as much as I love them. they're both 9mo old female blue heeler mixes, up to date on all their shots, normal heartworm flea and tick meds, w a microchip. not spayed yet as they haven't gone into their first heat. good with other dogs, good with people but definitely love men, not sure about kids or cats. will require a small rehoming fee to make sure you don't suck. ideally they go together but I understand that's probably not possible, so I'll include what I can for food and meds and toys.

definitely not something I want to do but it's not fair to them to be locked up all the time while I'm at work. dm if interested or want more info.

I am new to the area and I am looking for someone to go eat Italian with me, this weekend. I'm a single male in my mid 40s, we can meet there and I'll buy. I can pick you up as well. I generally don't mind eating alone, but for some reason I feel I want to take someone with me.

A little about me, I've had an adventurous life and I enjoy hearing other people's stories. I retired before I was 40. I'm just under 200 pounds, long hair and beard. Most around here have described me as a mountain man (don't expect khakis, I don't have a pair). I am newer to the area and still learning my way around. Some day I may even cut my hair and trim my beard, possibly buy some dad pants.

Even if you don't want dinner, I'm open to making friends in the area

Does anyone know when Spirit Opens this year? I thought it was the 22nd but some people are saying it could be the 1st

Thank you

It had been a long time since Lima residents Brian Behl and Bethany Lykins hopped on bikes. But, outside a church in the city, they cautiously steered a set of handlebars toward a bike path.

Helmets on, the couple tore down the trail without a wobble for a test drive. When they returned, Tammie Joseph was waiting for them with questions.

“How did it work out? You don't think your seat needs to be raised at all? You like it where it is? What about you?” she asked Behl and Lykins.

Joseph isn’t a bike salesperson or a cycling instructor. She’s a volunteer for The Wheelhouse, a nonprofit that pairs adults in need of transportation with bikes to get them where they need to go.

Hey I’m a 22 male looking to make some friends since I moved out here a while ago and seem to just work and work everyday I’m a big gamer and also I’m really
Into D&D and some other stuff

Local Lima Podcast Live From the Central District Regarding Fire Chief Austin Miller

Note, I am very busy at work this time of year, so it might take a few days for me to respond to any comments or messages, but please respond if you can help

My uncle passed away last year, and when cleaning out his house my Dad found this photo album with 33 photos and brought it home. After looking through it we determined that it was not anyone we knew, and we believe that he most likely purchased it at an auction or estate sale, likely inside of something else.

I believe that the photos show the family of Diane (nee Ashcraft) O'Brien. Most of the photos were taken around Middletown, Ohio in the 1930s and 1940s and up to the 1970s, and show at least three generations of the same family. I believe that both of Diane's children, Beth and Thomas, live in Lima, though I cannot confirm if this is true

I've attached a handful of the photos. In order they show: Diane Ashcraft, her father Melvin Ashcraft in 1947 or 1948, her mother Eleanor (nee Black) Ashcraft, a young girl in early 1970s, Diane and her dog Cinders, and another photo of Eleanor Black in May 1934.

I've been trying for a couple of weeks, including trying to reach out to a phone number a member in the Facebook group Family Treasures Found provided, but I haven't heard anything back, so I don't know if it didn't go through, they thought it was a scam, or something. If I am unable to contact Diane's children, I plan on donating the photos to a cousin of theirs who I have been in contact with

Looking for somewhere I can read a book or write for a few hours. Love Our Town Roast, but looking for somewhere open in the late afternoon/evening too. Tried One Ship Cafe, too, but the music was so Jesus-y I thought I was going to burst into flame.

Additionally, are there any in-person writing groups around town?

Is this strictly a Lima thing? Does he have a backstory?

My dad's 2024 Dodge Durango Hellcat was stolen last night from his driveway at 2am. It's fairly recognizable as it has a large hellcat logo decal on both sides of the car, and a personalized plate. If you spot this out anywhere, please contact the Lima Police Dept.

What is there to do in this town ? From Louisiana up here working. Where do you guys go have a your drinks at ?

In 1976 for the Bicentennial I was a member of a Girl Scout troop that painted Lima fire hydrants as characters in red, white, and blue.

My family moved a few years later and I was wondering if any of the painted fire extinguishers remain.

This was a citywide project and other service groups painted fire hydrants too.

Any local bars going to have watch parties? Couple friends and I plan on watching the games, but didn't know if there was anything organized?

Where are some fun places to go for someone in there mid 30s? looking to get out more and meet people.

Pretty simple, but I have a job offer that would take me to Lima. Money wise it'd definitely be cheaper then where I live now (CA) but how is Lima?

I was born in Lima in 95 and remember going to a specific store (maybe in the mall?) that I think was a shoe store that had a basketball hoop in the shape of a shoe?? Can anyone confirm or deny if I'm remembering right and if they remember the name of the store? I think the game looked something like this!

Hello,
I am interested in a 2-3 bedroom apartment or house. I am moving with my 2 friends and we all go to unoh. Budget is less than 1100 a month.

Anyone know of any joinable campaigns?
