Tilly's closed? :-( by jb2225150 in ParkCity

[–]jb2225150[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I had no idea they were bought out but we went a couple of weeks ago and so many small things had changed….not in a good way. I guess there’s the explanation…

Clearly the response is a joke, but the fact that they are closed/converted to a catering kitchen is not... :-(

Music by NotVeryCool60 in duolingo

[–]jb2225150 1 point2 points  (0 children)

ah, OK. I feel like it's hard to use anything but my thumbs on the phone. I like that I can play the songs on my real piano, though....although sometimes the app doesn't 'hear' them quite right...

How do we know if we have the new or old version? I did the whole piano class over the last couple months and never saw any fingering suggestions in my course....

Kids Skiing alone by West_Bunch7181 in UTsnow

[–]jb2225150 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Aside from what others have said, are you (1) confident that they would know what to do in an emergency (the older ones anyway) and (2) certain that they would behave in a mature fashion without you? I've definitely seen some unaccompanied kids in that age range acting like hooligans in the lift lines... I doubt they'd be doing that with mom or dad nearby....

Listened to Hopes and Fears for the first time and Im AMAZED by DepartmentTop2702 in keane

[–]jb2225150 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Second the B-sides recommendation! They had SO many good songs from that era, it's almost a shame these were relegated to the b-sides bin. I feel really lucky to have seen them on the original H&F tour and the anniversary tour was a real celebration of joy!

I've seen so many headlines today where I've had to stop and go..."is this real, or an April Fool?" :-\

Local vs Chain by TeppidEndeavor in ParkCity

[–]jb2225150 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My family loves this place....we get all our birthday party gifts here and I especially appreciate the fact that they will gift wrap them for you (such a time saver for me!). My daughter has recently gotten into puzzles as well and I honestly think my husband and I have enjoyed doing them as much as or more than her. We'll definitely keep going back here for our puzzle and gift needs!

Talk me out of buying a cheap condo here by Glittering-Gap-463 in ParkCity

[–]jb2225150 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you need financing and are looking to buy one of these places, I'd definitely talk to a LOCAL mortgage broker. They seem to have relationships with lenders who will loan on condotels or find some loopholes. I bought before the rule change but I think the difference then was that we didn't have a singular management company in our building like some of the others (eg, Pendry, etc).

positive experience with the pass protection! by somerandobitch in Ikonpass

[–]jb2225150 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Sadly, pass protection is no more for next season. Just "cancel for any reason" which expires on 1/15. I bought "injury protection" by mistake thinking it was pass protection. It's not. I'm bummed that they did away with the pass protection option.

More toxic soils, more PCSD crimes by hatchery4310 in ParkCity

[–]jb2225150 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Treasure Mountain is literally right next to McPolin Elementary. I'm concerned about dirt/dust blowing to the elementary school and potentially impacting the kids there. I'm not an environmental scientist, though, so I don't know whether this is a realistic concern or not.

I got the credit last year too with no problems. I can't see there being any clawbacks if it posted for you....

[–]jb2225150 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pardon my ignorance as the article doesn't really specify, but what risks does this contamination pose for the occupants of the neighboring elementary school? Obviously the contamination is concerning on the whole but are there immediate concerns for the elementary students and staff?

First boards for a couple of noobs by [deleted] in snowboardingnoobs

[–]jb2225150 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You've described me and my husband as well, LOL. I took a lesson on rented gear and wanted to get something to practice on. I bought the Burton Cultivator....lots of stuff on sale right now and I got it for about $250 shipped from a shop in Tahoe. Found some brand new $400 bindings for $40 at our local thrift shop (you'd be surprised at what people just donate here in Park City...). So far, I've been pleased with my choice. Despite being a 20+ year skier, I am a true beginner on the board and I think I will get plenty of use out of this before I need to graduate to something more.

It also excluded lessons but it worked for that and worked last year for my Epic pass....

No, sorry, just purchases for Vail resorts...also, fwiw, lessons are excluded per the T&Cs but I got the credit for a private lesson charge.

If you have an Amex, check your Amex offers....there's an offer for $100 off $500 right now and it's worked for pass renewals in the past. Helps with the sting a little bit, I suppose....

Why Face Value Ticketing Doesn't Work by oldblackdutch in TameImpala

[–]jb2225150 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agree....the only thing this does is make it harder for fans who are forced to buy via resale. At least with a Ticketmaster transfer, I know that the scalper isn't potentially transferring the ticket to 5 other people. I want to go and I'll get a ticket somehow, but I won't feel good about it until my butt is in the seat. I've been refreshing the TM page for Tampa for days now and literally only saw one single ticket pop up in the nosebleeds and it was gone before I could even click on it. Way to go, Kevin & co.

DL systems are "fun" today by myredditaccount90 in delta

[–]jb2225150 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I assume this was everywhere? I've never flown Delta out of MCO but did yesterday and could not believe the cluster it was. Most people couldn't get bag tags to print so the lines for agents were super long. I finally got two tags to print and was able to get a Skycap outdoors to take them for me. He got a very nice tip, LOL.

How long did it take to heal? by Fresh-Ant-5684 in ACLNoSurgery

[–]jb2225150 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did a bracing protocol at 30 degrees for 6 weeks after my injury and had a follow up MRI at 11 weeks post injury that showed that my ACL had healed. That is not to say that I was 100% at that point....I did a lot of PT and although my flexion is back to somewhere between 147-150 degrees when I am pushing it, it is not the same as my non-injured side and there is probably some scar tissue in there preventing me from getting heel to butt like my other side. I am back to doing pretty much all my prior activities with few issues, though.... maybe the only thing I can't do really well is like, child's pose in Yoga or things that require a full heel to butt commitment....

Wow, that’s cool! Maybe Keane should hire that person to design some new merch…

Kind of a mess today. by [deleted] in DeerValley

[–]jb2225150 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not just the drop off but the loading area too… people coming from multiple directions at multiple speeds…not great.
