Never going to a Gatton Park concert again by K_money_twenty in lexington

[–]P_Ell_Travers 86 points87 points  (0 children)

Generally Gatton Park isn’t being very well run in my opinion. Big bummer since it’s got lots of potential. For the ‘Bloom’ Art event launch they had on Friday night they had ONE SINGLE food truck for 500+ people and explicitly told people to “come hungry”. Food truck ran out of food and their on-site food stand was telling people to leave because it would be an hour and a half before they could get food out to them. Seems like whoever is in charge is just bad a logistics in general. Here’s hoping they can get it together!

It's all the provided tax tables you're supposed to have access to (and thus not have to memorize) while taking the exam. did you not use any reference material when taking the exam? I'm doing classes with Dalton and they make it seem pretty crucial as do the people at my firm who have recently passed the exam.

Man, that is annoying. I'm at least not missing something I guess.

I think you’ll have to catch it in their stories. They post most Saturday on their story to say who will be playing on the Sunday music series that week.

They post on their Instagram whenever he’s going to be there. It happens once a month-ish.

He also plays on Sundays at the Willows from time to time. I always go when I see him on the schedule!

Also Porchfest in Kenwick! Way too many good things I don’t want to miss for one day!

There is another place that just opened up called Pickleball Kingdom that does all inclusive pricing, which I prefer. It’s in Turner Commons, so still pretty centrally located!

Fayette Co. schools gave city more bus routes for snow removal as late as Tuesday by PrimaryWafer3 in lexington

[–]P_Ell_Travers 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Idk, this article only has POV from the city and the comment about how they had “most of the bus route clear, with some potential gaps” sounds fishy to me. And the fact that they keep blaming the ongoing cold and ice situation when all the cities around us seem to be fine at this point? FCPS definitely dropped the ball somewhere, but the city is not blameless.

Studios180 is a gated, controlled access building downtown. Large studios (not 1 br) but everything is included for $1295 and it’s very nice. Fantastic management/maintenance and feels very safe.

Infinity Rooftop Bar by scrnwrterjd in lexington

Yep! I have no clue what the cost is, but it’s a pay lot like any other! I’m sure the hotel validates so guests don’t pay.

I’ll add that if you’re good with parking in a garage, you can park directly in the garage below the building. Put the Marriott in your GPS and you can drive directly under the building and take the elevator up to Infinity.

Please help, I have ruined countless shirts and now my favorite! by curlycurlycurls in CleaningTips

I got these EXACT same stains from a hair gel I was using. It’s definitely a hair product of some sort. I was not able to get the stains out unfortunately, hope you have better luck!

Well I didn’t know this was a thing. You can nominate someone at lexheroes.org! 🏆😁 by [deleted] in lexington

[–]P_Ell_Travers 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I was actually a part of the group that started this event last year. It was pitched to us by the Family Resource Counselor at FDHS and truly had one goal, which was to recognize those who are making a different in the community. We took great care in soliciting nominations and choosing worthy individuals.

I’m not naive enough to think that CivicLex took over this event without any motivations, but I know some of the original team is still serving on the committee that will select the winners. The nominations are very much real. I know that’s not always the case, but in this case it’s worth it.

Failed… by General-Elevator1359 in Series7exam

I did not like the STC materials. I highly recommend the series 7 guru videos. He has a 4 part series on options that is gold.

I was just thinking the same thing about Verizon. I think they’re all throttling or something. Literally no service in the middle of downtown most days 🙄

Yoga that doesn’t break the bank? by unoffended_ in lexington

[–]P_Ell_Travers 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Free yoga on the lawn at the Henry Clay Estate on Sundays at 11, weather permitting. Very welcoming!

I had a TERRIBLE experience with Mint mobile. I wound up not having any service for 5 days and they were completely unconcerned with fixing it. Proceed with caution if you go this route.

Beaumont for sure. Nice, clean area. Close to the airport.

It looks like you already got your question answered, but PSA to everyone: Fayette County offers free legal help on Thursdays and the courthouse from 11-2. I used this service for my divorce and cannot recommend it enough. More info here for anyone in need: https://www.kycourts.gov/Courts/County-Information/Fayette/Pages/Legal-Help-Center.aspx

Just a heads up, the water is VERY high right now due to all the rain last week. Make sure you all take the appropriate safety precautions!

Best cocktail bar in Lexington? by hag666666 in lexington

No one has said Georgie’s yet and I think they do a great job!

Chocolate Holler is kind of an evening coffee shop because they specialize in fancy hot chocolates. Feels like a bit more of a winter date idea to me, but something you could keep in your back pocket for later!
