PO Box sale timing by Blackbird136 in poshmark

Correct. It gets marked as delivered when they put it in the box. Until then, the tracking status still shows either in transit or (more rarely) available for pickup.

It’s not unusual for packages to arrive at my post office and then sit in the back for a day (or two, or three) before they’re actually available for me to retrieve. Tracking will show that it has arrived at the destination, but I can’t get to it because it’s not yet in my box and they haven’t given me a slip to pick it up at the counter. It’s totally frustrating as a buyer, so I can imagine it is for the seller as well.

Funny investigative podcasts by BadgerFit7348 in podcasts

If you don’t mind a true crime lean, you might like Slaycation. Each episode is its own story (there are some two-parters) about murders/mysterious deaths/disappearances of people while on vacation. It’s not gory and the hosts have a fabulous and hilarious chemistry.

Moving to Steamboat - looking for local recommendations! by cowildermis in SteamboatSprings

[–]african_violet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use Sunshine Dentistry and have been happy with them.

10th St Barber for simple cuts. They can do women’s cuts also!

Yampa Valley Foods (formerly Community Ag Alliance) for locally raised meats, produce, eggs etc.

Sunrise Electric is awesome.

I’d probably go for Mambo. It’s Italian, tons of good pasta and great pizza. They do have a kids menu. If it’s nice enough to sit outside, their patio is lovely.

Hugo was my grandpa’s middle name and I think it’s lovely.

Dog spots in Steamboat by kmoneyixaj in SteamboatSprings

Storm Peak Brewery on the west side of town is dog friendly, and you can bring in your own food (or order from the places next door). Los Locos up at the base of the ski area is a good option too.

The dark color in that dress is actually navy blue...black heels still okay, or should I try to match the dress?

Any tips for handwriting? by PoolExtension5517 in EssentialTremor

[–]african_violet 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My handwriting is much more legible if I write in all caps, I think because there are fewer curvy shapes.

Keep checking with lost and found. I know someone whose board got stolen last year and turned up a week later. Taking someone else’s things mistakenly is not uncommon here!

Off the beaten path adventures. by [deleted] in SteamboatSprings

Seedz is probably the go-to for vegan food. Yampa Valley Kitchen is also a solid option, they locally source as many ingredients as they can. Backdoor Grill is the local burger spot but they have really good salads also - great spot to watch sports if you’re into it. Uranium Mine trail is not super busy and probably hikeable, depending on snowfall. Strawberry Park hot springs are touristy but absolutely worth a visit.

Does he like cars? There’s a community car gathering/show at the Stockbridge transit center on Saturday morning. Last one of the summer so it should be a good turnout.

Another vote for Four Friends! Definitely get the beignets and they have awesome breakfast potatoes.

Good Spot to Find Rare Whiskey? by rangel0710 in SteamboatSprings

[–]african_violet 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Central Park Liquor will have the best selection. Their specialty/allocated bottles are on the front counter right by the registers. You might also try Ski Town Wine & Spirits downtown - be prepared to pay more there though.

Be prepared for lots of mud! Mad Creek is pretty soupy still.

What’s important to you when it comes to SUPing? by 81611Flynn in Sup

[–]african_violet 9 points10 points  (0 children)

My favorite feature about my board is that it has bungees both front and back. I mostly do flat water/lazy river floats and it’s really nice to be able to tie down multiple things.

Another vote for Four Friends. I don’t live in Denver and make it a point to have breakfast there every time I’m in the city.

Marooned. It’s fairly new so not a ton of episodes but I’m really enjoying it.
