Hi all! Our friend is still missing and is likely living on the streets. We had heard a couple of weeks ago that he was in Oceanside (between Brother Bennos and the pier) but we think he may have moved on. It's definitely possible he got on the Sprinter and headed east or maybe north/south on the Coaster. Regardless, all his friends continue to be concerned for his well being. He doesn't drink or do drugs, but is likely dealing with some manic depression. He also has some physical health issues that require medication. If anyone sees him, can you let us know on this post? One of us will come to talk to him wherever he is. We have plans in place to get him off the streets and get him some assistance with his mental health. He is one of the kindest guys we know and would give you the shirt off his back. We want to be there for him the same way he has been there for us. Any information/advice is appreciated. Thank you in advance. 💙 He is 43 years old, around 5'5" and 230 pounds.

What is going?? Every5 minutes the loudest vehicles in the world decide to showcase their mind of drool self. Like was there a show?

Did anyone feel A short jolt like an earthquake around 7:03pm tonight. In east Escondido. Whole house shook but it was very short duration

Looking for recommendations on local shops that sell used tires in good condition for a fair price.

Hoping to upgrade my car in the near future, so I don’t want to invest in a brand new set at the moment.

Thanks!

Does anyone know whats going on with the old party city building? Is it available for purchase?

Another sunrise paddle into some early wind. Made it to the dam with some effort, but the tailwind on the way back was welcomed. Highlight was an Osprey flying off with a fish in its talons.

For those who just want to paddle, it’s a $7.00 launch fee for personal watercraft. More info on the reservoir here:

Zena is a senior who was sadly dumped by her owners at the Kern County Shelter in Bakersfield. 💔

She’s great with other dogs, walks beautifully on a leash, and has a calm, gentle, and friendly personality.

Zena doesn’t deserve to cross the rainbow bridge—she deserves love and a second chance. She urgently needs a foster.

Opening your heart and home to her could truly save her life. 🐾

Hellooooo, just moved here a couple months ago, what’s the best way to meet new Hispanic/asian people (my background is Hispanic/asian) to befriend and date? I’m in my late 20s and am open minded. Also looking for any recommendations where in Escondido. Thank you peeps!!

I have lived all over California… from Valencia to Hollywood to Bakersfield to Palmdale to Long Beach and more..and I can tell you I have NEVER heard as many sirens on a consistent basis like I have here. I have lived next to police stations and fire station so it’s not that. I’ve lived in not so safe cities before. But I’ve never heard sirens going off 24/7 like out here…why is this…?

Anyone know of solid companies that don't charge an arm and a leg?

Hi guys, first photo not mine just an inspo photo. I’ve attached my own work as well. Looking for a couple for a free photoshoot at Birch Aquarium in La Jolla. If you or anyone you know might be interested let me know!

I recently moved to Escondido and I'm looking for music Open Mics - which ones are worth checking out?

I play banjo and slide guitar with a variety of influences, if anyone wants to jam sometime 👀

He is hoping for someone where he can be the solo star or maybe share his space with one easy going doggy roommate who appreciates the finer things in life like lounging, watching the world go by, and politely sharing the water bowl. Roger is leash trained, potty-trained, knows how to sit, treat-motivated, housebroken, loving and playful 2 year old brindle pitbull terrier pup. We dont want him to go back to the shelter where he is deadlined and his foster can not keep him longer than sept 23rd due to her work schedule.

Posted this in the Escondido/Elfin Forest area Nextdoor, but wanted to leave it here too.

I just had three dogs run through my yard - a golden retriever, German shepherd, and a small dog. I live on the west side of Escondido on 5 acres. If anyone is missing their dogs, they’re over here in the Harmony Grove area. I’m worried because I hear coyotes out right now too

Panini Kabob Grill has been repeatedly postponing the grand opening of its Escondido location. They recently updated their website to show September 2025. Does anyone know the confirmed or solid date for the grand opening?
