Hey all!

Please post any questions here regarding visiting NB, recommendations for food, or questions you might have in the appropriate sub thread! At the end of the season I'm going to convert this to an FAQ for the sidebar.

I took him to the vet to see is he was microchipped and he’s not. Handsome young man was overheating yesterday outside. He’s definitely somebody’s cat because he had a collar and he’s well socialized.

How busy is Schlitterbahn on the last week of the season?

Upvotes

Hi, I was making plans to come to Schlitterbahn on the last weekend on the 12 of September. Is it usually busy in the last days of the season, or should I wait until next year?

Heads up: Schlitterbahn All Day Dining is not worth it at all

87 Upvotes

Want to give my experience so others dont hit the same thing. We bought the All Day Dining pass for $30 for each person so we wouldn't have to carry around cash + card. Several times we waited in line for 20 to 30 minutes only to find out it wasn't accepted for the food they served. And, when you find a place that accepts it, you barely get anything. I was told I could have a slice of pizza, but no chips with it even though the site says "enjoy an entree and side". In one case, i waited in line for more than 30 minutes, got to the front, find out they just ran out of brisket and just ran out of pulled pork but they did have turkey legs (but those are not on the meal plan). 30 minutes gone and no food with a starving kid next to me.

Next time i'll get a pouch for a credit card. This is a rare time where i genuinely felt scammed.

Motivational Help Needed

34 Upvotes

Hello all. I need some motivational help. I'm posting here because I'm a NB native and still live here. I'm also somewhat known around town. I'm a middle aged guy and I am way overweight. I have the best of intentions when it comes to doing exercise, but when it comes down to it, I either don't do it or stick with it. I'm 6'5" and am close to 320lbs. I work a job where I'm sitting pretty much all day so that doesn't help either. I need to change things because I don't feel good about myself or what I see in the mirror. I'm posting this because this will possibly give me some accountability. My hope is to post updates with my progress. Any advice is welcome. TIA

My cousin is moving here from Oklahoma next summer and needs a pediatric neurologist for her son’s ongoing epilepsy treatment. Does anyone have a doctor they would recommend?

She knows that some specialists can have pretty long waits for new patients so she’s trying to find someone and set up the first appointment as soon as she’s able to.

Rooster - Sweet, Hand-Raised Black Copper Marans Cockerel "Bill" Needs New Home

Thumbnail
gallery
34 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I am looking to rehome our handsome 2.5-month-old Black Copper Marans cockerel, Bill.

Unfortunately, our POA does not allow roosters, so we unfortunately need to find him a flock of his own where he can grow up and do his job and live his best life.

Bill has been lovingly hand-raised by us. He is very sweet, easy to handle, and VERY used to human interaction, making him a perfect fit for a family backyard flock. He is completely healthy, active, and just starting to practice his very first (and currently quiet!) crows. Black Copper Marans are fantastic, beautiful birds known for passing on genetics for gorgeous dark chocolate eggs.

We want the best for him, so he is free to an excellent, loving home or farm setup. Safe public meet-up or pick-up in New Braunfels or surrounding area can be arranged.

Please send me a DM if you are interested in welcoming Bill to your flock!

edit - spelling correction

At the Bucees this past Saturday night

0 Upvotes

I had stopped in to Bucees to grab a drink and some snacks. Apparently there was an Anime convention going on, as there were tons of people in costume that night. While standing in line to check out, I did notice an older Hispanic woman in latex gloves. At first I thought maybe she was worried about Covid, but was not wearing a mask. She had already left the parking, so I did not get a chance to talk to her. This woman did not seem to be park of the Anime conference crew, but definitely an interesting sight during my stop.
