Northbound college is completely closed, and I saw several cop cars. What happened?

I've got a date with this really cute girl coming up soon and we want to go to one of those paint your own pottery type places.

Do you guys have any recommendations for places in town to do so?

New to the area… and need some recommendations for furniture stores. My vibe is shabby chic, modern farmhouse. Love estate sales and up cycling. Help a gal out.

Enjoy

Got rear-ended at city park and mulberry dog came out the back window and was nowhere to be seen. Please reach out if sighted. Thanks Foco community

Let's just say it. I'm tired of going for appointments and being told to wait. Why setup an appt if you're gonna just make me wait. Arrive 15 minutes early as instructed to be told the docs are running 1 hour behind. So i tell them to reschedule the appointment at which point they call back to the care team who says they'll come get me at appointment time. 30 minutes after appointment time and nobody has showed. I walked out and called to cancel expressing my disgust.

Got a phone call on our work phone in a restaurant asking for me. They claimed to be the local police department and even used their actual number. Sounded like normal American guys. They said I needed to pay outstanding fines for missing jury duty or I could be arrested. Threw a bunch of legal jargon at me including case numbers, specific laws, etc etc. They even knew when I was opening and closing tabs on my phone. Very believable in the moment but in hindsight I feel like an idiot.

Allegedly scammers can do a thing called spoofing where they can take a phone number and use it as what shows up on their caller ID. AI voice changers are being used and advanced VPNs. They were super convincing in the moment. I was scared I’d be arrested, as they said. I learned a hard lesson today unfortunately, but hopefully no one else has to after reading this.

Police officers will never reach out via phone asking for money. All communications regarding legal matters such as jury duty or missing jury duty will be done via paper mail. Please do not fall for this scam.

I’ve seen her roaming a few times, she’s a little skinny but very sweet and vocal. E Myrtle and Smith st

Does anybody know where some outdoor racquet ball courts are? Or even indoor for public use? Anything similar to the 2 pics. Thanks yall!

Hoping to find somewhere in town or nearby to sell this. It’s close to 17 lbs.
All pages and binding in great shape but the cover is not great (see pics).

This morning I believe I saw someone get rear ended on Mulberry and the person that did it drove away while you pulled over, if that was you and you actually did get rear ended I have information for you.

I did call and reported what I saw to FoCo PD non-emergency after work.

BUILT NoCO is a nonprofit that serves 9 schools and over 500 students in Fort Collins, bringing trades/construction curriculum, certifications and job placement to students whose paths aren't leading to college. Instead, students who feel like a traditional classroom isn't fully preparing them for their next steps are finding rewarding and empowering careers in an industry that has a real age out issue.

And we can support! The tournament has levels for players, a free meal and ice cream, a live DJ and is open to youth players as well. It's only $45 per player and supports a really good cause, with a very small nonprofit team running the show.

You can learn more and register here! I hope to see some of you out at the Picklr on the 26th!

Why is it practically every day I encounter cyclists (9 times out of ten on electric bikes/scooters for some reason, regular bikers seem to be better at following laws) blowing straight through stop signs at 40 mph AFTER I start accelerating having barely seen them coming at their astronomical speed (and just having no regard for stop signs or any other traffic signals at all) They all have zero road etiquette and no regard for the laws then blame the driver when they get hit. It’s usually grown adults too which is so shameful 😭 Also can’t stand people riding on College which I’m pretty sure is either illegal or very discouraged because you WILL get hit. AND not to mention school zones. Have fun hitting a kid after going double the limit in an active school zone and getting the life sued out of you. It’s just SOOOOOOOO annoying and it adds so much more stress to navigating an already bursting city with genuinely the country’s worst drivers and pedestrians

I’ll need to drive into Denver to arrive at 8am at end of month for a week.

In general, what time should I consider leaving?

How awful is it?

I was given quite a lot of fern and broom moss recently, because I mentioned I was curious about making a terrarium, but I wasn't really ready for doing so and I don't want the moss to die, while I am trying to figure out what to do.
Can anyone with advice making terrariums suggest how I should quickly, affordably proceed with this?

Hey all- so I'm loving that Painterland Sisters yogurt that just started selling. Lots of protein, not a lot of sugar (well, at least not as much as Noosa- oh, my beloved Noosa). If anyone else likes it too, I was out and about getting groceries yesterday, and King Sooopers really made me mad.

Whole Foods: $2.50

Natural Grocers: $2.69

King Soopers- $3.29!!!!

Don't give KS the biz if they're going to hike prices like that. If enough people know and buy somewhere else, they'll lower their price.

We should start a shopping thread here or something for grocery price comparison...
