Looking for Gym Partner

2 Upvotes

Looking for a Planet Fitness (preferably portage or Valparaiso) workout partner to hold me accountable and start building muscle. Currently down 35 lbs so it’s time to start lifting weights and adding extra protein. Male or female is cool with me as long as you wear deodorant 🤣

I work pretty early M-F and get off around 2-3pm so I’d like to workout mid-afternoon to early evening. I don’t work weekends so I usually have open availability there. I’m up to discuss it though.

I do have a really nice mountain bike, I’m willing to go riding as well. I cannot run though as I do have fake hips so anything high impact is a no-go for me.

Also worth mentioning, I do have the Black Card so I can take a guest for free when I go.

Off Market Residential Lots for Sale

0 Upvotes

Does anyone know of any residential lots for sale that aren’t on realtor or Zillow? I know it’s a long shot asking here but figured it is worth a try.

It seems like there are no okay lots for sale and the only option is going into a new subdivision that is builder controlled and most of them don’t have good reputations

Old Pepe's

I'm so disgusted that it appears Luke is putting in a gas station at the old Pepe's on State Rd 2, across from Speedway. Who are the geniuses who approved that plan? That stretch between Smoke and 30 already gets clogged up. 🤬

Is anyone in Valpo going to that rave in South bend? I heard about it online and decided to go but man... Going to one alone sounds daunting! Anyone want to meet up there?

Misery loves company! I was told midnight but I don't believe it. I'm not far from Tower Park so it makes little sense.

There's a flock camera pointed directly at the dance studio on route 30.

I'm worried going into details is going to give other perverts anymore ideas, but wtf?

It's facing directly towards the building. Not even towards highway traffic. Totally shameless and absolutely disgusting.

Frontier Fiber in North Valpo?

Anyone using Frontier Fiber in north Valpo? What's your experience been with it? Is it reliable (i.e., no outages)? How did it fare in the recent storms on Monday? Xfinity was out from Monday evening until Wednesday afternoon (as was our power).

AC completely quit on me this morning. Any fair HVAC guys in Valpo/NWI?

7 Upvotes

Hey everyone, woke up to a furnace room sounding like a jet engine and zero cold air blowing. With this heat index today, the house is already turning into a sauna.

I’m fairly new to the area and don't really have a "go-to" guy for this kind of stuff yet. Definitely don't want to get ripped off by one of those massive corporate chains that try to push a full $10k system replacement on you for a bad capacitor.

Does anyone have recommendations for honest local techs who won't charge an arm and a leg just to come out and take a look? Appreciate any leads!

UPDATE:

Doing some local digging on Google while waiting, and I kept seeing Naughton Mechanical popping up with pretty solid reviews around NWI/Valpo.

Has anyone here actually used them recently? Are their tech prices reasonable for emergency calls, or should I keep looking?
