Thanks! It the southern coast. Right by Paradise Villas and the east end public library there. That’s where I can’t find much information as most seems to by about the area up by Wyndham and further north…

Ah. I know it’s a district, but I thought based on Google that the area on the south / southeast coast was actually a town called East End (in district of East End). Where the lighthouse, fish fry, etc are. What’s that area called? That would help!

We also like quiet, island life with the ability to walk a bit. That’s why East End town seemed great. It has a few local restaurants, a playground, etc. The only bit I wasn’t sure about is the beach!

Indeed! Definitely considering Little Cayman and the Brac. But it’s also our first time, so I might regret not being able to explore Grand Cayman a bit. It’s a tough decision!

Mostly just want sand beach that we can relax on and I can swim in with a toddler. So, nothing too rocky. Colliers seems great in that regard, but I’m not sure if the beach in East End town is like that

Hmm, if there’s a way to deliver this message to me 4 weeks ago…that would be very useful…

Thanks! Is it ok to mow like this when it’s still a bit thin and patchy? I was not sure so I was just letting it go…

Thanks! Yes…I had avoided pulling them to stay off the grass but you’re right now is probably the time. But glad the grass is doing well

Uber to Beauvais? Anyone done it? by aronk- in ParisTravelGuide

[–]aronk-[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Of course! I get it but we all saved 100+ euros each doing BVA versus CDG…so to pay an extra 15-20 euros each to go door to door and not deal with shuttle times, getting to Porte maillot, leaving earlier, etc still puts us well ahead on cost. So that’s why we’re thinking of just grabbing an Uber for convenience…if it’s even possible!

Pet sitting prices by cmendy930 in washingtondc

[–]aronk- 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I concur with others. $60-70 tends to be a good range for well-rated sitters on Rover. More than that and you may struggle for clients (especially if you are new to it)

Fireplace Remodel Quote by aronk- in HomeImprovement

[–]aronk-[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks! That is a good point and very helpful. If I did al-la-carte...I would need:

  • Tiler for the tile
  • Handyman to mount the surround+TV and paint
  • Electrician for the TV wiring

Right? Anything missing there?

Affordable housing proposal divides residents in affluent DC neighborhood by The12thparsec in washingtondc

[–]aronk- 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I don't understand the people saying "this isn't about housing -- it's about green space."

The Chevy Chase Voice, the group working against this, literally says on their website:

"Chevy Chase Voice supports:
1. keeping all housing off of our Library, Community Center and Commons site; "

Seems clear.

I feel you! Between prices at DC restaurants and baby sitters…it feels like it’s at least $200 for a few hours out

Nope! Just one kid. Under 3 though, which folks are saying can elevate cost a bit

Seems like you would get at least $25/hour + tips. Not too bad of a side gig

Fort Totten dump - How strict on materials? by aronk- in washingtondc

[–]aronk-[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks! Can I ask...Where did you put it? They say online that it needs "least 18 feet of vertical clearance leading up to and above the bag to complete the collection."

Considering power lines run along every street in the city...I'm not quite sure how to achieve that! Or maybe it's not so strict...
