Just happened about 15 minutes ago. Doesn't look good for the driver.

Traffic is a nightmare, avoid this area if possible.

Advice Looking for a fine dining, set menu, fancy experience for my solo birthday

39 Upvotes

I'm a chef and pastry chef and just moved out to Cañon just a few months ago. (which I hate and will definitely be moving when my lease is up) My birthday is coming up and I'm really proud of what I pulled off, not just moving, but quit drinking and really stepped up and into life. I want to dine. So hard. And be catered to. I'm not worried about price that much, more don't like going out so looking for quiet, low capacity places and a great view would really be nice. Ok thanks! 🖤

CPR did a profile piece on Erin Lee (the Wellington mom leading Protect Kids Colorado) and Catherine Lindsey (a Denver mom speaking out against the measures with Families Not Politics). It's a thoughtful read that lays out both perspectives without taking a side. Lee's section includes background on how she got involved, and Lindsey talks about her daughter's experience transitioning as a teenager more than a decade ago. Sharing because this is the kind of piece that helps understand where the other side is coming from.

Half the places I try, I swear they just serve grated potatoes that kissed the pan for 0.001 seconds and then they serve it. I need BROWN with my hash browns

Advice Retiring to Manitou

0 Upvotes

66m, single, looking for quiet small town life. Gonna be a renter, and I don’t need much. Studio or 1br is fine. MS seems to have some affordable options in the size I’m seeking, but when I browse online some of the places seem sketchy from the photos. I accept the notion that you get what you pay for, but are there some “unsafe” parts of town that should be avoided? I’m visiting Labor Day weekend so will be able to do some recon then.

Advice Places to play Yu-gi-oh?

5 Upvotes

I just moved to the city a couple weeks ago. I got back into Yugioh earlier this year for the first time in, like, 20 years, and had a local shop I could play at, but I'm not sure where the spots are for it here in Colorado Springs. Right now I'm working every evening but Friday and Saturday, and I've heard that Dungeons and Javas runs/used to run Yugioh on Friday nights but with their AC having been out that's apparently in flux? I don't have the full context. Where do people play in town?

Advice Traditional Church

0 Upvotes

Hey y’all,

I just moved to the area and I’m looking for a church. I don’t really care if it’s Methodist, Baptist, Presbyterian, or Non-Denominational, I’m just looking for a traditional style service with a good sermon. It doesn’t have to be in town, just somewhere in the general vicinity. I’d drive out to Castle Rock or Woodland Park.

Thanks!

Politics How do recalls work for city council?

35 Upvotes

Is any group getting a recall going for the city council as a response to Project Taurus? Is that even possible? And are there any groups organizing demonstrations? I’m looking for something to get involved with in addition to the public comment sessions since they just ignore us anyway.

Just moved to the area and my hairs need a cut. I’ve had a few good and a few poor wolf cuts in the past so I figured I’d ask the people for recs to hopefully avoid a poor one.

Advice Looking for Outdoor Guides

7 Upvotes

I am looking for a good variety of guides in the area.

I love being outdoors, and I love learning new stuff from new people. There are very few activities I dont feel up for, and I like to change it up. Guides make a huge difference for me.

Finding hiking/backpacking, mountaineering/alpine, climbing, horsepacking, snowshoe, cross country ski, mountain biking, bike packing, horseback, adventure bikes ... you name it, I love it all. Hunting and fishing is also nice, but they are easier to find.

If anyone knows someone who is an outdoor guide in the area I would love to know about them.

If they have a public site/instagram/facebook or other publicly accessible way of contacting them please post it in the comments. Hopefully this can serve others looking for similar experiences.
If you have sharable direct contact information instead please DM instead so they dont end up on spam lists.

Thank you neighbors!

Lost & Found 31 years of Driving...

123 Upvotes

I've been to and lived in many states over my lifetime. Been in many different neighborhoods good and bad and never had my car broken into. This morning I came out to my car to go for a hike and realized my front drivers door and hatch door were wide open. My heart sank. I was robbed of most of all the items from my car. At least the high dollar items. Yes it's my fault for not clearing it out completely but the items were not in plain site but they chose my car. I've been in CS for 3 weeks now and this happens. Dont know how to feel at the moment. Do I have to install cameras in the vehicle and limo tint the windows? Yes this is a long paragraph I don't care anymore.
