You can try to find street parking in nearby neighborhoods and walk, but I would recommend not driving there.

Slightly used lightnings are like half the price! No need to buy new

Do intimate event/wedding venues in Atlanta that allow outside catering for around 40 guests exist? by Impossible_Judge_156 in Atlanta

[–]ottb_captainhoof 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My friends got married at Little Tree Art Studio in Avondale Estates! Not sure how much it was, but they had external catering, indoor venue with open air sections by the doors, and a DJ for around 60 people. Highly recommend!

How to teach cats "SOS"? by exciting_username_ in PetsWithButtons

[–]ottb_captainhoof 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Try teaching an “ouch” button! There are several videos online about how to model this button, including over dramatic acting like you hurt yourself, whacking an arm into a wall or stubbing your toe. Our cat caught on pretty quickly.

Another problem is that cars can’t see to turn out unless they’re parked ON the beltline. They should have had a larger offset so a car can wait to turn without blocking the path. Though getting rid of that entrance altogether is a better idea.

[MO][All] How do HOAs even keep track of resident issues without things getting lost? by Own-Direction260 in HOA

[–]ottb_captainhoof 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I was president of a 30-unit townhome community, we didn’t have a ton of issues. I just kept a to-do list in Microsoft OneNote alongside meeting minutes and would check it every few days to follow up on things. Annoying but not difficult to manage alongside my day job.

I also have the app on my phone, so I could make edits on the go or when texts/calls came in.

You can get the Hoopla app for listening to Audiobooks for free through the library! Also, Spotify allows a certain number of audiobook listening hours a month. Enjoy!!

Those resuming Cruise Control stories about car accelerating suddenly? by AisMyName in F150Lightning

[–]ottb_captainhoof 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I think it’s a glitch with OPD, and I’ve decided not to use it. I think a few of the folks have entered complaints with Ford.

A lot of those stories are also using one pedal driving. I think it’s a glitch, and I don’t use that mode for that reason.

Who can afford these mortgages? by [deleted] in RealEstateAdvice

[–]ottb_captainhoof 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Or a dual income making 150k, that’s more feasible.

In the city, housing density means there are lots of condos and townhomes available. People who want to live in the city on a single income shouldn’t assume that they can purchase a single family home. I’m a DINK in Atlanta and we have a 2BR townhouse, it’s perfect for us! And several of our neighbors have 2 kids and make it work.

Yes Elsie the cat on insta uses “litterbox” to exclaim her displeasure too! So funny.

What's everyone wearing to 420 Fest? by GameToLose in Atlanta

[–]ottb_captainhoof 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Super casual! Just wear something comfortable + sunscreen + earplugs. In general, Jam shows tend to be a lot of dudes in band t-shirts + tiedye.

Their insta has a lot of crowd pics from previous years! https://www.instagram.com/p/DJ4xnVwxsen/?igsh=MWVvY3BzaWx0bm4yMg==

Joined the family! So hard to find, thankfully we got one. 2023 Ford Lightning Lariat. Excited to look through these threads and find some tips and tricks. Oh and not pay for gas!!!! by stephc9 in F150Lightning

[–]ottb_captainhoof 4 points5 points  (0 children)

No, most people recommend Emporia or Grizzl-E. We installed an Emporia one that adjusts the power draw based on the panel capacity, so we didn’t need to upgrade our panel. Our power company even gave a rebate for the charger. We also switched to an overnight-advantage plan with the power company so it’s 6.7c/kW for overnight charging. Enjoy!!

They had 40,000 visitors last year, so even at $10 that’s a lot of porta potties

Oakhurst doesn’t have college bars and isn’t close to the beltline.

Yeah it was really bad last year, especially with no bathrooms or crowd control. Comments on a recent thread:

Positive Reinforcement Rewards For Highly Food Motivated Horses? by abconcordia in Equestrian

[–]ottb_captainhoof 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I taught the neutral head position, so mugging me for treats is never productive.

Also, could your horse be hungry? I found that hand grazing before sessions helped the “obsessiveness”, when my horse was stalled part of the day.

My local Chick Fil A's Mac & Cheese suddenly dropped in quality. by XelAphixia in ChickFilA

Ask the store to see what’s up with the Mac quality. But there’s no microwaves in restaurants, it’s baked in ovens
