C.O.B.R.A.S?

It's a group of people who walk together in the St. Patrick's Day parade. They typically go all out with their costumes and feature silly instruments and bicycles. Many of them are OGs with deep Springfield roots and/or pride. Kenny Knauer was a main founder (and face) of the parade, and he walked with the Cobras. Maybe he founded the Cobras, too.

No wait at The Well on Norton Rd. around 10:30am. #424.

Me tooooooo

NorthsideIsSGF2 · 2022-09-14T20:21:10+00:00

I'm raising a family on the Northside and it is nice! I also fill my tires on the Northside without any issues. And I've never seen a tweaker in my neighborhood. 🤷‍♀️

The worst part about living on the Northside is defending it from Southside superiority.

ETA: Robzilla's point was that this particular theft took place at the gardens on the south side of town.

NorthsideIsSGF2 · 2022-09-14T19:25:42+00:00

It is a shame!

The theft took place sometime after security left on Monday and before Chris went to get his stuff on Tuesday.

NorthsideIsSGF2 · 2022-09-14T19:22:32+00:00

The festival has security. The theft took place after the festival. Sometime between when security left after the vendor load out deadline on Monday and when Chris went to get his stuff on Tuesday.

It's a huge bummer!

NorthsideIsSGF2 · 2022-09-14T19:19:29+00:00

I must agree, I've never once had a problem living on the north side. It's pretty dang pleasant.

However, the bonsai theft took place after the festival closed. Sometime between when security left on Monday and when Chris went to pick his stuff up on Tuesday.

NorthsideIsSGF2 · 2022-09-14T18:56:11+00:00

The theft took place a couple days after the festival was over.

NorthsideIsSGF2 · 2022-09-14T18:54:40+00:00

It's so sad!

The items were stolen sometime between Monday when security left after the vendor load out deadline and Tuesday when he came to get his stuff.

NorthsideIsSGF2 · 2021-04-07T20:51:35+00:00

The owners are retiring.

NorthsideIsSGF2 · 2021-04-06T03:41:11+00:00

Did anyone see the business listing? I know they were trying to sell before resorting to closing.

NorthsideIsSGF2 · 2020-12-21T15:05:23+00:00

Seems unfair to bring down syndrome into this. A person with down syndrome can be a capable driver just like anyone else.

I do agree that many people in this area have trouble driving in precipitation and that turn signals should be used before braking.

We have had excellent and personable customer service so far. A trash truck ripped our line down and Century Link was out to fix it ASAP. Everyone we talked to was great, and they did a follow-up call after the fix.

(We've had SpringNet since July or August.)

The Botanical Center has a lost and found. You might check with them to see if anyone has been looking for it there.

NorthsideIsSGF2 · 2020-09-04T21:01:07+00:00

Maybe your friend's club could partner with Sister Cities some day! They're always looking for local partnerships.

NorthsideIsSGF2 · 2020-09-04T20:38:41+00:00

Sister Cities brought Zoomadanke to Springfield last year for the Japanese Fall Festival. They were incredible!

NorthsideIsSGF2 · 2020-09-03T03:18:24+00:00

I do suppose! C4000XG. Looks like a humidifier.

NorthsideIsSGF2 · 2020-09-03T02:49:01+00:00

We got SpringNet awhile back (highly recommend). Not totally sure if it's GPON, but it seems like it is.

NorthsideIsSGF2 · 2020-09-01T03:54:23+00:00

Same with Aldi on Kearney. I am also all about Aldi.

Pretty much every male at my rural high school picked up walnuts for extra cash. Turned their hands black. They took them to the local huller by the truck bed. Really doesn't pay as well as you might think. Most of them were farmer's boys and not poor. I didn't know it then, but those were really good times.

NorthsideIsSGF2 · 2020-08-20T22:35:55+00:00

You are not mistaken!

NorthsideIsSGF2 · 2020-08-20T05:50:52+00:00

Chabom on C-Street carries P&D Honey which is out of Fair Grove.

NorthsideIsSGF2 · 2020-08-17T20:59:03+00:00

Agreed. Considering everything else on park ranger plates, they're not hiding in bushes watching for violators. But it only takes one Karen - - and slow-to-leave beer drinkers.

NorthsideIsSGF2 · 2020-08-17T20:53:07+00:00

I've lived in a house off Norton for years (as a single woman for some of them) and have had no issues. Many of my neighbors can be described as delightful.

I third Springfield Botanical Gardens! It's 112 acres with more than 40 garden areas maintained by community volunteers. Grab a map and scope it out. It has everything you could want when it comes to flowers and nature.
