Lost wallet bifold green leather

8 Upvotes

Long shot but I lost my wallet Friday evening, either in the Goblin King Games parking lot at 2750 E Silver Springs Blvd, or at the Publix / in the parking lot down the road from there on silver springs.

Small chance it was at the Winn Dixie off 35th.
Green leather with a Montana state ID.

Thanks!

29M – Trying to put myself out there

5 Upvotes

I know I’m pretty much shooting in the dark here, but figured it’s worth a shot.

I moved to the area a couple of years ago, and as an introvert, I’ve mostly kept to myself. Lately, though, I’ve been feeling like it’s time to put myself out there and meet some new people.

I’m not gonna say too much about myself here since I think that’s the fun part of getting to know someone through conversation. For now, I’d prefer to start with chatting, see if we click, and maybe meet up in person if we hit it off.

I know Reddit can be full of bots and fake accounts, so feel free to send me a message if you’re interested!

P.S. I’m not too concerned about age. I’m well aware of the demographic around Ocala lol. Just looking to meet some genuine people and see where things go.

Part time nursing program CF

3 Upvotes

For anyone who has attended the part time nursing program at CF.

Can you tell me how many days a week you typically have classes on campus? How many hours a week did you study? Do you think the professors were there to really help you through the program or was a lot of it death by PowerPoint with most information not being on the test?

Leeward air ranch? How loud they get?

6 Upvotes

Hey how's it going. I'm just peeking at some homes for sale near the flight path of the leeward air ranch, near the railroad tracks along the southern edge of silver springs shores. Does anyone know if they fly planes there super early in the mornings and how loud they are? I don't mind the noise during the day, I just like to sleep in on weekends.. thanks in advance.

Looking for people who live just north of the landing strip, to see if they regret buying a house there or if it's a nothing burger

Any local businesses need a web design refresh?

3 Upvotes

Hey everyone!

I’ve been doing web design for a while and have some free time right now, so I thought I’d help a few local businesses give their websites a fresh look.

If you own a business and feel like your website could use a little update, message me the link! I’ll check it out and put together some free redesign ideas for a few businesses.

I’m open to different types of businesses and would love to see what I can come up with.

New to Ocala: Would people here hang out at a Duckpin Bowling / Retro Arcade Bar?

23 Upvotes

Hey everyone. I just moved to Ocala from out of state. Since I'm new here, I'm trying to get a feel for the local social scene.

Back home, I loved casual social clubs that had beer/wine, retro arcade games, and duckpin bowling (the version with smaller lanes and balls). I've noticed Ocala is growing like crazy, but I'm trying to figure out if there is a gap in evening entertainment here. i know Magic and Pokémon are big in this area. i could see having a weekly night dedicated to card players.

If a place like this opened up in town, would you actually go? Do you feel like Ocala is missing a casual, fun spot like this to hang out at night, or does something similar already exist that I just haven't found yet? I'm considering opening this venue. And i don't have a sense of the potential customer base. Appreciate any honest feedback or thoughts on what parts of town need more entertainment!

Fedex hiring?

12 Upvotes

I applied at the fedex ground location here in Ocala last month and my application still says processing. Ive applied 5 times they all say processing. Is there someone out here that knows who I can contact to ask about the status?

Does anyone know why it's been 4 weeks and still no word?

Where to trick or treat that isn’t crazy busy but a good number of houses participate?

Any recommendations of neighborhoods that do traditional trick or treating but aren’t a complete zoo? Not looking for a huge candy haul, just a traditional experience that is more relaxed.

When the speed limit is 35 or 45 why tf are we going 60 or 70??? I just saw a kitten seizing and about to pass away on pine where everyone hauls ass. That poor kitten. I’ve been crying since then. People go too fast on road and I’ve seen too much roadkill on that road.

Is Culligan the best water treatment system option in the area?

Looking for a water treatment system with installation in the Ocala/Dunnellon area. I have already spoken to Culligan, but if I can get a better deal, especially with a warranty, I would love to give someone else a go.

ETA: Thanks guys. I'm so glad my area has a reddit page!!

Making new friends

How does one meet new people here? I’ve been living here for almost a year and a half now, but I work from home and my friends are all 2 hours away. I would love to make some new friends out here, but I don’t even know where to start. Help pleaseeeee. I am 31F

How are Gainesville residents finding help for small jobs around the house?

0 Upvotes

I’ve noticed that finding someone for smaller jobs around Gainesville can be surprisingly difficult.

I’m talking about things like moving furniture, yard cleanup, hauling something away, or just needing an extra set of hands for an hour or two.
Hiring a contractor can be overkill, but finding someone available isn’t always straightforward.
I’m actually working on a local platform called get-ergo (ERGO for short) to help address this, so I’m interested in understanding how Gainesville residents currently handle it.

Do you typically use Facebook groups, Nextdoor, recommendations from neighbors, or something else? And what’s been your biggest frustration with finding reliable help? Would having a consolidated place to post jobs be easier?

LGBTQ community?

1 Upvotes

I’m a 32f lesbian living here for the next six months before I move back to Orlando. It’s so lonely out here! Are there any LGBTQ meetups or events or anything? Would love something sapphic specifically but I feel like that’s a big ask, lol. In any case, finding some cool people to interface with would make my stay here so much more enjoyable.

I’ve checked out Mutiny and the farmer’s market already, and plan to check out Muddy Lotus at some point. No luck so far. 🥲

Anyone else here check out The Remedy Dog Bar on East Silver Springs? They have a 5,000 square foot outdoor area for dogs with a full bar. They also have fantastic food. Shout out to the Mac Daddy!!!!

I have a 55 pound Catahoula/Lab Mix, and two Chihuahua/Dachshund mixes that need friends!

I always see a ton of posts about trying to make friends in Ocala. Remedy is the perfect place because it brings people from all ages together. I have lived here for over 4 years and never really met anyone but I’ve already met some really great people there.

Golf stop

4 Upvotes

Hi all,

Planning a road trip in December with dad starting from ATL and I was thinking that Ocala is about middle ground to make a stop. We're planning to leave early Sat morning and hoping to crunch in a round of golf starting around noon till sunset. Any recommendations where to go? Not looking for anything pristine but it'd be nice to get decent conditions and a feel for FL golf.
My basic search is showing Ocala Golf Club, Golden Hills (though read they're going private? idk if they'll be open December 12), Ocala Palms, Stone Creek. Would appreciate any input thank you!

100 day update. Still iso friends

15 Upvotes

So I posted looking for friends 100 days ago, it was pretty unsuccessful. I’m still here, friendless. I love driving through the Ocala national forest, I love eating good, love music, I’m pretty easy going. I’m 37, open to friends or whatever.
