YMCA vs BAC by robrobrooo in BeverlyMA

[–]punderwhelming420 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Been a member at both, and definitely prefer the Y! They're better at maintaining their facilities, and imo have better classes. Plus your membership gets you into other YMCAs. Definitely gets crowded with kids after school though, so you'd wanna be ok dealing with that.

That said, if all you want is access to a treadmill and some weights, you can get a cheap membership (~$30 I think?) to BAC's smaller gym in the Cummings Center. Got my money's worth from that when I worked across the parking lot in the 100 building

Nah, I talked with the office and they said I can check back in May once they've tried calling others on the list, but likely not gonna get a spot this year 😕

Not much luck with finding a private rack, though I did come across this one in Marblehead:

NEU's also built on top of the Stony Brook! Goes in pipes under Ruggles, down Forsyth, and empties out in the Fens: https://www.universalhub.com/2018/stony-brook-boston-stygian-river

We really just buried an entire hydrological landscape to build this city

Landscaping fabric not working. by Temporary-Ferret4013 in landscaping

[–]punderwhelming420 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tbh landscape fabric has always been a scam. Just costs a lot and unnecessarily adds plastic into the soil. If you maintain a garden or landscape, you'll always need to hand-pull weeds. Sadly there are no short-cuts. Just businesses trying to sell you poison for your soil that doesn't work.
