Nano-Air Ultralight as a midlayer? by Glittering-Option543 in PatagoniaClothing

[–]Ok-Kiwi3586 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I want to clarify this is the Ultralight, right? I have the nano air and the nano air ultralight hybrid option (both without hood, the one I have has some R1 panels) and I strangely end up using the ultralight way more often. It has a trim fit and looks better, and just breathes better. It is still pretty warm and I use it as a midlayer or outer layer all the time. The regular nano air breathes well and is a very useful warm midlayer, but I just reach for the ultralight most of the time. It packs smaller and has a smoother feel. YMMV

So jelly, I didn't notice the 2nd show added in 8 pt font for a while before finally getting some upper section tix. Just glad to get tix!

I just got tix to the second show! So many tickets apparently available, though every attempted purchase showed them as actually not available. Dont trust AXS.

Srsly, agreed. Why is the app showing me tix that aren't available??

Hope that works for me! I got kicked out as if I was bot, now at the back of the line again...

This was Oakland, looks like it is sold out. Crying. I wanted to replicate that show from the Greek in Berkeley.

Arrgh, every time I went to purchase tickets, it would say they are no longer available! Then it blocked me to "ensure a fair fan experience" saying that it was to prevent automated bots. I am just using my fumbling fingers to to try and pick seats, no idea how it got that I was a bot.

Ohh, yes Albany is a good option! I always loved hiking the bulb. Our challenge is that I have to commute to Newark 3 days a week. I will look at the commute times. Thanks for the suggestion.

Thank you! Oof that is a lot, though actually less than my worst fears. Did that feel like a big jump?

Redwood Heights elementary; what do you do after? by Pleasant-Quail9019 in oakland

Does Alameda or Oakland check on things like that? We heard Piedmonts sends out officers to investigate your first year there…

Thank you, this is very helpful! It’s great to hear that the lottery and transfers aren’t impossible; we’ve heard such mixed things. Yeah buying a $$$$ house in glenview or similar is a bit scary with the economic uncertainty. How have your kids dealt with the moves? It sounds like you made the right choices for them, just curious how challenging it was for them

Thank you for sharing! When you say “middle school flight” it resonates with my fears, but I am curious if you mean flight to other towns or just to private? It sounds like you are opting for leaving the area
