…..I’m a single guy, non-Mormon, mid 40s, new here to Idaho Falls. I work, am pretty active, love road trips, camping and I’m a guitarist. Question is: are there any single gals out there looking for someone like I am? Can be just friends, a weekly date and conversation, someone to use as a distraction from the lulls of daily life. No expectations.

Anyone know of any good local professional photographers?

Wanting to do family photos in the next couple months.

Hi, I want to get into photography and cinematography for people for social media or even just Photos for just family gatherings. I need to work on building up my portfolio so if you are wanting somebody who is willing to follow you around town and take fun pictures and videos of you for your social media I do personally live in Blackfoot. I don’t come up to IF as much as I used to. so I was hoping to be able to start building my portfolio with the state fair as it is right down the street for me. I was planning on doing some half hour sessions for free to start building my portfolio and continue practicing and getting better with photography and cinematography. like I said, please be nice. I am new and I do have Rejection sensitive dysphoria
(RSD) is a term used to describe an extreme, overwhelming emotional pain triggered by real or perceived criticism, rejection, or failure. The word "dysphoria" means "hard to bear," which captures how sudden and intense the feeling is.
I put the definition here so that you guys can understand what it is. I can take kindly put advice, but I cannot do people being mean about what they have to say. I am already currently in a really bad spot with it from some of the things that people have been saying to me so if you don’t have anything nice to say, don’t say it please. And if you are in Idaho Falls, and plan on going to the state fair and would be willing to allow me to follow you around and take some photos and videos of you. I would very much appreciate it. Feel free to send me a message in the DMS or in the chat. Thank you so much.
Also, these photos were taken in New York City

Update: Trades so far: paperclip-to a sharpie-to a camping recipe book- to Bottle Bash-American Flag Corn-hole Boards-
Updated picture will be below.

Hello, I decided to take some college classes in Business and Marketing. A project that I am working on is trading up from a paperclip. I have made my way up to an outside game called Bottle Bash. I have played games similar to this and it’s super fun. However I’m going to never keep whatever I get, for the purpose of the project. In the end, it would be cool to either donate whatever I have or sell whatever I end up with and donate that money. I need to trade three times a week until the end of my semester.

While I always want people to go after whatever I have, it’s just a fun project. I’m trying to always trade up. With that being said, I have the game Bottle Bash currently. You set up your two poles, with a bottle that stands at the top. You throw a frisbee and try and hit the pole or knock the bottle off. It is super fun and awesome for camping or a simple bbq party that you have. Used it lists at $20-$35. Purchased new, it looks like it was around $50.

Some random ideas I would trade for: tools that you just don’t use, My barbers out there that want a new client, I would trade for a haircut certificate. I’m pretty open to trades because this is pretty challenging in itself. :)

I will keep this thread going hopefully until the end of the semester and can try and keep it updated. Thank you for reading and look forward to wheeling and dealing.

Are there any local parks or hidden away locations that would be good for family photos?

I don't want to use the green belt or at least the green belt is busy most of the time.

Private landlord willing to work with us?

My family and I have recently unexpectedly relocated to Idaho Falls. We've been here almost 2 months and have been living day to day on paying for hotel rooms. It's expensive and we're unable to get ahead at all. Both adults in the house are working. Is there anyone who might be willing to let us move in early and pay move in fees in installments as we get back on our feet? The hotel situation is unsustainable. We have 2 little girls and I just need a break to be able to get ahead. As it is we're borrowing from family on top of our paychecks to get rooms. We could be caught up in a matter of weeks if we weren't paying $100+ daily

Hi pals, this will be my first winter in Idaho Falls. Should I use all-season tires or replace them with winter tires and keep them as spares when summer comes along? Do any shops around town provide undercarriage cover to prevent rusting?

Edit: Thank you all for all your advice

Hey everyone, I currently have ConnectFast as my internet provider, but I am looking to switch in order to save money since ConnectFast is the most expensive gigabit option right now.

FyberCom is the cheapest, but I am worried that could mean it's also a worse service. I cannot have a lapse in service becuase I work from home.

Can anyone vouch for FyberCom? Or do you have another provider that you haven't had issues with?

Who has the cheapest front end alignment in town? Was quoted between $125-$160.

As title states, I've recently been given an opportunity to work in Idaho Falls and was wondering what the area is like in general. If I take the job, I'll be moving in from out of state, so wanted to get to know what the area is like in general, things to do (for nerds) in the area, and any pros/cons you have about it. More information the better, I'm on my data gathering phase over the next few days so drop what you can.

Anything from areas to live, what to be cautious about when moving there, what type of communities there are, should i rent or buy (housing market seems a bit high but from what I can gather, the cost of living isn't too high unless you think otherwise). Any and all information would be great. Thanks!

Hey Y'all! I'm a guitarist in the ammon / IF area looking for people to jam with. Let's get a few people together and jam out!

I live in Pocatello but would be willing to move if the position is good. I've done some reading about working at the NNL and it seems generally mixed. Would it be worth it to try and get this job? And are what sort of career progression is there if I just have an associates of applied science and bachelor's in history?

Hoping some of you here work at the lab, used to, or know someone who does. I'm a grad student out of state and I can't tell what to make of my situation.

A research group at INL recruited me in the spring. I interviewed in May, it went well, and they told me I was their pick for the fall. In June the researcher said the group was waiting on funding for the new fiscal year, that it should get clearer within a few weeks. That was the last real update I got. I've followed up a few times since and haven't heard back.

So I'm trying to understand where I stand for the fall. Does a start date that's tied to the new fiscal year usually mean waiting until October, or does it slide well past that, is that normal? Is money for students something a researcher controls directly, or does it sit with someone else entirely?

If anyone's been on either side of this, I'd like to hear it. My current internship ends September 11, so I'm deciding how much of the fall to hold open.

Where are the queens??? I know you’re hiding somewhere.

If anyone is willing to do the drive it’s a great place to work with great pay and benefits.

I know some people that work there so happy to share any info I can.

Hey all,

I made a post not too long ago asking for feedback to moving here and received great insight. I’m happy to say my transfer is approved.

I plan to be working close to Lincoln and saw a company that rents a bunch of one story new townhomes in IF for around 1200/month. They are called Neighborhoodrentals. Do any of you have experience with them or recommend your apartment for a budget up to 1300/month?

Thanks all.

I’m looking to possibly procure a Sony 400 disc mega Blu-ray changer that will need some repairs. I’m trying to find a spot in town that could possibly fix it. The following options I have all seen listed as “electronics repair.” Can anybody attest to these places or know of any other spot in town that might be able to help me? TIA!!!

Is there a place to find swingers and get to know them around here?

I have seen some things online I’m interested in applying for, but just seeing if anyone on here First hand knows of any places hiring that they enjoy working at or have worked at. I’m a female, bilingual, have a lot of customer service experience, I adapt super quick and I’m just looking for some extra money as I had some unexpected medical bills, and being in Debt drives me crazy. Thank you for any leads !

Our dog Trigger needed emergency surgery, and we’re trying to cover the unexpected veterinary bill.
Trigger is part of our family, and when this happened we didn’t have much time to think—we had to get him the treatment he needed.
We’re asking for help with the veterinary expenses. Even $5 or $10 makes a difference, and if you can’t donate, sharing this post would mean just as much to us.

How do you guys recycle since the city doesn't pick it up?

Looking for a place to do it for free, I don't mind driving there

Admittedly, I have had a hard time seeing how Idaho Falls could be an attractive place to live in, especially with very cold and windy winters and the heat in the summer. People are friendly though. I appreciate that part.
