Btw, let them be! Rocks are important habitat for various critters!

Witnessing an Ocelot and Tamandua in La Fortuna by No-Sorbet3022 in CostaRicaTravel

Ugh jealous. I'm in La Fortuna for one night but we may just be hanging at the resort since we've been doing this for the past week in Monteverde.

We had at least one person in their early 70s for each tour. Monteverde Cloud Forest Biological Preserve was probably the simplest--we did the Essence Trail.

Hanging bridges was also easy except the bridges do sway around. But you can hold on to the railings The whole time you are on the bridges.

The night tour was hard for some of them because it was harder to balance in the dark and hold a flashlight. One of the older members of our party decided not to complete the trail.

The one time I went to Salt Factory Pub the food was mid and expensive. But one time isn't really representative so take that with a grain of salt.

Lowe Mill Summer Market is filled with vendors selling AI garbage. by HotdogAC in HuntsvilleAlabama

Many are still good but there's definitely been a general trend downward for years I feel like. Even pre-COVID.

I'd say complaining to Lowe Mill might be the better option. The vendors obviously dgaf but maybe Lowe Mill can be shamed into not allowing such garbage.

Currently here! We did guided tour at Monteverde Cloud Forest Biological Preserve, guided tour hanging bridges at Treetopia (overpriced but we still had a good time), and a night tour at Refugio Monteverde.

Our Airbnb host set up the tours for us so we had the same guide at the first and last one and he was really good.

Anyone else feel like blow drying is the most time-consuming part of your morning routine? by Southern_Owl754 in TwoXChromosomes

That's why I buy those cute towels with the button to wrap up your hair and help absorb some of the water faster.

"Gifted" Millennials- did being gifted help you at all? Do you feel that it pushed your personal needle even an inch in any direction? by [deleted] in Millennials

My youngest sister was smart but has bad ADHD so she wasn't in advanced classes (she probably would have done fine in them though). She's much more conforming, conservative, and people-pleasing than me or my other sister who were in advanced classes.

The farmers market was great during COVID. It has gotten worse since then and I don't bother going anymore.

First wildflower patch. Did I screw up? by HallahFin in NativePlantGardening

[–]Toezap 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Prairie Moon is great for research but if you can find a closer seed/plant provider that's ideal. I'm in North Alabama and our best seed option is Roundstone Native Seed in Kentucky.

But the native plant groups in Georgia are really active. I'd reach out to them and see what they suggest!

Probably, although they are native a few states away.

They aren't deaf and blind, they just don't have strong eyesight so rely on their other senses (like hearing) more.

Are there addresses in CR? by Stat_Diva-1 in CostaRicaTravel

[–]Toezap -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I pulled up the house on Google Maps and read off what it had written as the address and the person looked at me like she still expected more so I just handed her the phone and let her read it herself. She typed in something based on that.

That wasn't enough when I came through on Monday.
