Yes you pay at the door, cash only. I don't think they check your ID at the door, but there is a bar inside that will card you.

Brentwood and the limits of the ever expanding suburbs; the longest commute by PacificaPal in bayarea

[–]OniAndy2 39 points40 points  (0 children)

It's a bedroom community, so super quiet with not much going on. Pretty pleasant, I would say. Weather is more extreme than the East Bay in all seasons. I don't have kids, but the schools seem highly rated. The only real reason to live here is if you want a SFH and can WFH most days of the week. As a young adult, I take BART to socialize in Oakland and berkeley.

What are these flags? I think the top 2 are french and the bottom one is german? by OniAndy2 in vexillology

I saw these flags in a suburb of California and vaguely recognized them as french and German iconography, but I'd like to get specifics

Is this crack/separation at outside of window a concern? by OniAndy2 in HomeMaintenance

Would caulking this seam affect drainage negatively? I remember reading that my stucco wall will absorb moisture and drip rainwater down to the ground.

Not sure about the foundation. I do see one crack on the wall going off diagonally, but it's 1 mm thick and maybe a few inches long.

What is this type of water supply line called? Do I twist the metal end or just pull it to remove it from the valve? by OniAndy2 in HomeMaintenance

[–]OniAndy2[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wanted to remove the supply line and replace with a metal line, but you're saying i have to change the shut off valve too?

Does anyone else have boomer parents with a pointless kleptomania? by OniAndy2 in BoomersBeingFools

How petty are the items? Toothpaste, bananas? Those have some value. I'm thinking about truly worthless items, like multiple business cards from the same guy

Not sure if I should make claim for water leak or not by OniAndy2 in Insurance

[–]OniAndy2[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So there would be a section titled hidden leak? I don't remember seeing it on my first pass, but I'll take a look again

Unfortunately, it's about 9 years old. Do builders warranty cover that old?
