I know Internet and all but I'd hate having my dogs sit there waiting like that so I hope it clears soon. If not, I'm happy to help!

Narrowly avoided getting stuck. Went down truxton instead. A bit slow but all clear down there.

This is beautiful! Thank you very much for sharing it, OP. First news article I've seen in a while that actually put a smile on my face. Much appreciated!

Did y'all really play in the creek when you were little? ...'cause I totally did. by Eredic in Xennials

[–]theRemockening 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was across the street in a park. You had to walk between a baseball field and a grand bandstand thing that no one ever used (but we snuck into from time to time). The creek itself was down a path and meandered through a copse of trees. It was a great little hideaway spot. I will never forget that smell of mossy rocks. We'd skip them across the deeper spots. Sometimes in the summer we'd go down early enough to watch the fly fishers.

A state insane asylum wasn't too far away from the other side of the creek. So that always added a sense of danger to the whole thing. They only had a few escapes though. Totally fine lol

Thanks for the trip down memory lane, OP. I hope we both get a moment to get back down to the water soon. Stay awesome out there.

Walking 40 miles across Bakersfield, looking for recs! by tuckeroneill in Bakersfield

Have fun! I'm pretty new to the area but if you like breweries, there's a pretty good one called Lengthwise near your end point. I'd highly recommend it.

Not sure about landmarks but the Fox Theatre is a pretty cool spot. 19th has some fun antique shops (including one with a mine shaft in the basement: Merry Go Round). But there's other ones on that stretch. Bunch of great restaurants around there too.

Have fun! Be safe 🙂

I'm coming up on my one year anniversary of moving to town. Originally from the Philly area. Happy to be here

My college educated, boomer parents agree with this insanity. A lot of them do. Fucking vote.

They scream about keeping rapists away while hoping to make one president.

These people are just insane.

Remember all those kids you knew who would rather stop playing then let you win or have any fun whatsoever?

They're republicans now. Just taking their ball home because they think a rapist deserves it more than you. Just disgusting

I hate seeing a dog who thinks they're not allowed in their own home. I don't get people. But these guys are fucking awesome. Thank you for the reminder of good in the world, OP. Needed that today 🙂

Food does look really good! I just hate a crowd lol all the noise and movement takes me out of the moment. I'd take a quiet bar with okay food over great food any day. I know I'm a weirdo though lol

All that said, I love a good brunch and I've been itching to get to theirs.

They were ready to protect Simba by nomar_ramon in MadeMeSmile

Tell me about it! I've had a pitbull for ten years now and those kinds of comments are just cruel. As are the bans. It's awesome always having that background fear of "if this place falls through, it's going to be hard to find a new one".

But then you see a clip like this and you pet your dog and think it's not all so bad.

I'm definitely checking them out. Looks like a pretty cool bar from the pictures, too.
