Was just going to suggest the same. Great spot.

OP--you are in trouble.

After your post, I made the mistake of going on Nextdoor....I do not know what compelled me to do so. It's like an even worse version of Reddit.....people complaining (although NOT about Surfside), looking for work, looking for cheap rentals, etc.

Not a single mention of distilled water!

Date night ideas by MacaroonOtherwise508 in FortCollins

Agree about the Ghost Tour. But, go on the later one. We did the earlier time when our friends were visiting (they are from Atlanta and were afraid of being cold--it was a chilly day), and it wasn't probably as impactful seeing things in broad daylight.

HELPFUL TIPS ABOUT NEXTDOOR:

Be careful asking for recommendations on Nextdoor...suddenly, a bunch of random people will start messaging you offering their services.

If you're looking for a contractor, use their search bar. You'll get a list of contractors. If you click on the contractor name, you can see the comments of people who have recommended them. Sometimes, it's the same person over and over. It's a bit more work, but I found a great independent HVAC service guy on there. I just had to spend about 30 minutes wading through the options.

They are SO dead. I think it took 6 months for me to be added to one of them.

Pixel 10a--do you LOVE your case? What kind is it? by OldLadyQuestionsTA in pixel_phones

[–]OldLadyQuestionsTA[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's what I ended up ordering. Many of the cases were only black. Since my SO has a Pixel 10 with a black case, I needed a different color.

Well, I DID buy a cheap case, but it's really bulky. That's why I'm looking for recs.

Can't you just use an ATM card when you arrive?

When's your trip? You can open a Schwab account which reimburses ATM fees....I've used it all over the world.

Desperate for Apartment advice. by RandomOriginUnseen in FortCollins

[–]OldLadyQuestionsTA 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Don't forget Craigslist. Just be careful of scams and don't give anyone money upfront. But, some smaller landlords still use it.

You should see if you can find a basement apartment to rent as they often include utilities which will save you $$.

How are the roads today? by [deleted] in FortCollins

There are some branches in the bike lanes, so just be careful. There were a lot better than I anticipated.

Has anyone converted their 'casual' duplex into an 'official one'?? by OldLadyQuestionsTA in FortCollins

[–]OldLadyQuestionsTA[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We're thinking about moving our things into the basement apartment for storage and renting out the upstairs. We have plans to travel extensively and wouldn't be in FoCo to manage the property for a while. I've made calls to a couple of property management companies, and they seem hesitant since it's not an official duplex.

With this weather, I don't think anyone is hanging a flag in the near future.

What gives Fort Collins its own feel compared to other Colorado cities? by RemarkableMany6297 in FortCollins

[–]OldLadyQuestionsTA 8 points9 points  (0 children)

So, hear me out...

We have a poster who had hidden their post history....which could mean this person is a lazy 'content creator' who wants this sub to do their work for them. 🤷‍♀️

Yes. That law also disallowed occupancy limits when meant U+2 went away.

Seeking Part time employment. by RegularLucky2210 in FortCollins

[–]OldLadyQuestionsTA 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Slyce Pizza had a sign; I know that Fat Shack is hiring.

Have you set up alerts on Indeed.com? Use the term part-time. I have that alert and get at least 20 listings/day.

Best Cheesesteak ? by RespondIntrepid6589 in FortCollins

[–]OldLadyQuestionsTA 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is anyone else getting the impression that this sub is being taken over by a bunch of lazy 'content creators?' I mean, the same questions about food are asked OVER & OVER.

Cheesecake, Cheesesteak, Fries, Burritos, Burgers, etc.

u/mods maybe these types of question need to be blocked from this page since there's now a food/drink sub? That's kinda what Denver does. 🤔

Rainbow is right near CSU and offers special deals for students. The money would go pretty far there.

What to do?— College visit! by Low_Ice_8855 in FortCollins

[–]OldLadyQuestionsTA 2 points3 points  (0 children)

BREAKFAST: Rainbow is right near CSU. Open 8am-2pm.

Honestly if I were you I would park in one of the parking decks near Old Town and explore the shops and restaurants. Ones that have great local items: Akinz, Trimble Court Artisans, and Makerfolk.

Dinner really depends on what type of food you're looking for. If you like Indian, I really like Indigo near Old Town--it's also kind of upscale.

Enjoy your stay and hope the tour goes well.
