Tonight we had the pleasure of seeing a supermoon. With the clear sky it lit up our path and was very bright. Did you know that some earthquakes and tsunamis have been linked to supermoons? Crazy! No natural disasters have been reported at CoHo or in Corvallis at the time of this writing.
It’s that time of year again, where fruit begins to ripen around CoHo and is ready for picking. There are some cherry trees that have produced pretty well over the last couple of years, but sometimes we’ve been too late to get them before the birds! As the trees grow taller, we need brave people […]
CoHo encourages education. Corvallis is one of America’s smartest and highest educated cities. And we had an education celebration for Jeremy who just earned a Master’s Degree in Statistics from Oregon State University. Jeremy already has a PhD, but he wasn’t done getting educated! CoHo has a few PhD’s living here, among others with graduate […]
While playing in the sandbox, some rustling in the woods got our attention. Then this couple appeared, and we all watched each other. As unique as it was to spot some deer, they do love vegetables and we’d prefer they not eat our food! The doe eventually trotted down the path, then the young buck […]
Corvallis is generally mild when it comes to weather, but we’ve had more than normal snowfall so far this winter. Usually Corvallis only expects to get about 3 inches of snow annually, but we got that just today. It’s almost a whiteout! We’ve had several recent days of ice, snow and sleet, but today it’s […]
The bike barn has gotten a make-over. The original corner work area had become disheveled. It was more of a place to put stuff. Definitely not inviting to work on bikes. Here at CoHo, we’ve got a few bicycling enthusiasts (one a former frame builder, another a bike mechanic) and lots of people who ride […]
Here at CoHo we have several sustainability features. One is a Nissan Leaf, co-owned by several residents. And this 100% electric vehicle is charged from solar energy! Oregon is a great state to have an electric vehicle because we have the highest number of DC fast charging stations in the nation! Check out the Drive […]
We had a visitor hanging out around the mailboxes…a mantis. Looks like an African Mantis. They are supposed to like temperate and tropical climates, so either Oregon has some nice weather in mid-September or we’re experiencing abnormal climate here (what do you think about climate change?). Not sure if this is a male or […]
It’s been about a month since we showed before and after pics of some buildings that were painted with new colors. The G&J Painting crew have been working hard to get more buildings done and are getting closer to completion!So here’s some more before and after pics of other buildings that have been painted:
Monday Night Music Group is a regular jam session for CoHo musicians. Sometimes musicians from the surrounding area join our local talent, as well. Check out the video clip below from last night.If you (or anyone you know) would like to play some music (or just listen) with others in a family-friendly environment, come check […]
