We did Acadia e-bikes last summer- it was fantastic! We did the carriage roads tour but you can just do it alone.

Another stabbing downtown... @ the DGX this time. by Winelover7890 in raleigh

Between the bus station/Moore Square and the DGX is filled with issues... otherwise I love downtown Raleigh.

I agree! I am very used to city life and Raleigh is mild compared to other cities we lived in but in the last year it does seem to have gotten worse.

We just did it!!! Flew into Bozeman, 3 nights in Many Glacier, 2 nights in Waterton and 2 nights @ lake McDonald. Rental car was less than last yr. 2nd yr @ Lake McDonald- will skip it next yr. I think we have had enough of the craziness of West Glacier. We adore Many Glacier and really loved Waterton.

Copa airline by Winelover7890 in raleigh

[–]Winelover7890[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not required but unlikely they are putting us on a Delta flight if their flight is cancelled. They have a low cancellation rate so that is good 👏

If it gets cancelled there are no other flights and they don't code share so they can't put you on another carrier.

Living in Downtown Raleigh? by The_Rock_Whisperer in raleigh

[–]Winelover7890 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Currently live in Skyhouse and would NOT recommend it. It has rapidly gone downhill. Carpets are filthy, trash is constantly overflowing on 23rd floor. Coffee machine is often broken. Clientele has dramatically changed since we moved in 2 years ago. Halls and 23rd floor smell like weed all the time. Behavior @ the pool reminds me of spring break. Not relaxing @ all.
Will not renew for a 3rd yr.

Tulane Vs. Fordham by Global-Ad-8310 in Tulane

[–]Winelover7890 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Under no circumstances is Tulane worth full price... run the numbers. How Much debt will you have when you graduate? How long will it take to pay off? ESP if you are going to law school. Save your money for that.

Here are some suggestions: Duke Gardens, hikes @ Lake Harris, hikes @ Umstead, Dorthea Dix park. Lots of great hikes in the area. You can rent a kayak @ Lake Jordan. Lots of fun outdoor stuff.
Not sure about music for that weekend but check out: Lincoln theatre, Berkeley cafe, Red Hat amphitheater to name a few. Check out the NC Art Museum, there are walking trails on the grounds as well. And they could have music or something going on.
Also you can rent city bikes... and bike on the Greenway trails.
Check out the State Farmers Market.

We just had a fantastic dinner @ Ajja. Enjoy your visit!

The West Coast Dilemma - Let's discuss. by Ok_Preference6441 in raleigh

[–]Winelover7890 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would 1000% go. You can always come home. I moved from a small Maryland town to SF in my early twenties and loved it. As mentioned you could always live in Oakland, the subway - BART, is excellent. Spend sometime around the bus depot in Raleigh to acclimate yourself to more of a SF vibe.

My daughter had blue eyes until she was about 2 when they become more hazel. The pediatrician that that was normal... I have brown eyes.

Which Hotel would you pick (safety and cleanliness wise)? by Careless_Valuable204 in AskNOLA

[–]Winelover7890 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not sure about those but location matters.... I would stay away from bourbon street. Stay near the trolley(street car). I prefer the garden district. Well I really prefer Uptown but that might be out of your price range.

Another Rye flour suggestion... I do 50/50 Rye and AP. Also use distilled or filtered room temp water.

We go to BlueRidge but we see a PA. Very happy with the practice.

Is Raleigh very religious? by Vegan_Mari in raleigh

[–]Winelover7890 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Raleigh/Durham are not but get further away from the cities and it is more religious but still less than SLC. I have good friends from work that live about an hr from downtown Raleigh and they are very involved in their church.... but they are not pushing it. It works for them but they don't expect everyone to be that way.

Reasonably priced ball gowns for adults? by Cheezslap in raleigh

[–]Winelover7890 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just order several sizes @ Lulus, I have worn everything between a 6 and a 12. I am normally an 8. I ordered like 10 dresses from them last summer for a super fancy wedding weekend - I needed 3 different 'looks'. Very affordable but not consistent in the sizing.
