Anywhere in town that has a salad bar? Bonus if they have unlimited salad bar! Salad bar just sounds so good in this heat!

Hey everyone... I'm looking for a good and reasonably priced auto window tinting service for my car. Kind of getting tired of getting into my personal fire pit every time I get into my car. Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Staying in Rochester tonite with kids, holiday inn express on Maine. Good places to eat around there?

Hi y'all rabid fútbol fans. Which place is good and open for tonight's Mexico UK game?

Is tether ball still a thing 😂 I've not seen one in a couple of decades. Do they still exist and if so, are there any in Rochester lol. TIA!

I’m not entirely sure where to post this but I’m wondering if the fireworks are still on for tonight at soldiers field? It rained earlier near me and it’s super cloudy but my roommate and I wanted to see them! Thanks in advance! :)

Hey everyone I'm looking at starting an animal services company that let's you board dogs in your home, pickup and midday dog park trips , dog walking , cat litter box cleaning in home cat care to while away.Do you think there is need for this type of services , iv checked rover not much there. Would appreciate the insight and feedback from local residents! Thanks

Why can people not go to less dense areas to set off these bombs? We adopted a puppy 2 weeks ago and they have been going off for the last 3 days and making him have so many anxiety sh***. If you want to see fireworks go to a show, you disrupt so many other people’s lives

Watergate was still being discussed nearly constantly, and was shameful enough to darken the bicentennial. My school's administrators forced us students to attend lame, phony "celebrations" for appearance's sake. My senior high school bicentennial experiences were very annoying at the time, so three guesses how I feel about this year, a half century later. How do others remember the bicentennial & compare it to this year's celebration?

Twice recently, a grown mockingbird-sized bird was hunted and killed in my back yard oaks. I know because each time a large cluster of the prey's bigger feathers was left on the ground. I don't know what time of day it happened. I've repeatedly seen red-tailed hawks do this in Miami. What local small raptors are likely suspects here, maybe redtails, maybe a small breed of owl? Just curious to learn more about Roch ecology. TIA.

What restaurant/ fast food has the best Mac & Cheese in town?

I know it is summer so this may be a school-year question. I have a child that’s super into space currently. Does the MHS planetarium ever open to the public?

Just getting some feelers for Uber coverage outside Rochester, like small towns, Mazeppa, Zumbro Falls, south near Root River, Lanesboro, Preston. I have rented in the past but now have an inflatable paddle board and am wondering if it is plausible to use Uber to shuttle back to my car.

Edit:

If I was in the middle of Zumbro Valley, could I get an Uber back to Mazeppa? I know it has rained for days, but let's just say sunny day in August.

Thanks

Open for anything. I've been to taco lab and the duck already. What are some others?

Hey ya’ll!! I am a surgical tech student in CA getting ready to do my clinicals before graduating in January. I am very interested in a job at the Mayo after I graduate and relocating my life from Sacramento, CA. Anyone a scrub tech there or know of anyone? Would like to know what the day in the life is like in the OR. Am also curious whether there are any CA transplants that can speak to the cost of living. My research shows similar to about what you’d expect in Sacramento, maybe a little lower, but again, what is realistic in terms of cost comparison? I am hoping for some realistic insights, if you could be so kind as to share, it would be appreciated.
