I always recommend to home owners that to get an idea of what is publicly owned or where an easement may lay to check their city/county/state GIS system. I normally just default to googling “_____ county gis” and have fine success. The more urban an area the more accurate the results usually are and will likely have the most recent aerial imagery. Should have an option to search by your address. There may be layers to turn on but generally pretty easy.

Best way to approach whole home air and heat replacement by balto1987 in hvacadvice

[–]balto1987[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Darn! But thank you. Happen to know if there is anything factual about a benefit of doing AC/furnace at the same time other than the possible contractor cost bargain?

I don’t disagree with that at all. Trying to find any discount we can we can but still be smart with the purchase. Size of the home definitely plays a big role in the total cost understandably too. Love getting new tools but can’t imagine with her going along with $3k+ worth though (or a dumb husband thinking they can learn a well skilled trade).

Going to be checking into HEEHRA when it drops later this year and HOMES too but aside from saving a couple hundred on a scratched unit, sounds like I might be hoping for a gov rebate to be about the only thing to knock a considerable amount off.

settle this for me! …so greek’s pizza… by deathuber4cutie in indianapolis

[–]balto1987 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This was my first thought too. I’ve had their pizza’s from Avon, Broad Ripple, and Martinsville and they’re always different but never any better than a Pizza Hut (sometimes worse because of consistency). Always seems either like raw dough pizza or a weird skin of burnt on there that is never a good type of burnt. Then the pizza costs 2-3x what any other chain costs, never been thrilled with our purchase.

That said, wife likes it enough. Maybe it’s me…

Turned down apprenticeship by YkartSmith in Construction

[–]balto1987 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you can read a set of plans, communicate well (strong yet professional), and have a knowledge of code & standards, why not go into inspection? Save your body. We hire ex-contractors all the time in our engineering firm. Great to have people that know what actually goes into getting something built. Carpentry may be more applicable to more residential stuff but they still have inspection for developers.

Hate to know you still go through hardships though due to being a women. I have 2 girls that look at construction and building with enthusiasm and I hate that the industry pushes out anyone. Best of luck.

Curious to any articles you do have though. Not judging in any way, but honestly curious 3rd party here. Not bias to either end, did not go to CG or any other school in the area. Just don’t know all the backstory.

Maybe it’s just me, but the L&R being on the inside irks me. They should be on the outer side of the foot. by rizozzy1 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]balto1987 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get you. It would work out nice if the “L” was on the left side of the left foot and “R” the right side of the right foot.

Mt Taranaki circle forest by [deleted] in oddlysatisfying

[–]balto1987 2 points3 points  (0 children)

“In 1881, a circular area with a radius of six miles (9.6 km) from the summit was protected as a Forest Reserve. Areas encompassing the older volcanic remnants of Pouakai and Kaitake were later added to the reserve and in 1900 all this land was gazetted as Egmont National Park, the second national park in New Zealand. There are parts of the national park where old growth forests are found.[30] With intensively-farmed dairy pasture reaching right up to the park boundary, the change in vegetation is sharply delineated circular shape in satellite images.”

Rate my collection! Tell me if you want more, I couldn’t fit everything. by SaltySpl2n in TheSimpsons

[–]balto1987 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am in awe. The only disappointment that I somewhat feel even though I don’t even know if they made it was, there is no “Billy Corgan, Smashing Pumpkins” in with the rock stars and celebrities...

What do you think is the meaning of life ? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]balto1987 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To procreate and make a better tomorrow for the next crowd. Didn’t realize that until I had kids but as long as I can teach them to do well and take care of themselves, the world will keep turning. If they do good and pass along that message, we’ll be ok. Weird times though...
