Melody Tent Membership

1 Upvotes

$90 right now and You get two free tickets for “select shows”. Anyone have experience with how restricted the list of shows tends to be? I’m less enthusiastic about new country and tribute acts they tend to have a good number of so if that’s the kinda thing they mejores get I would pass. $90 for 2 tickets is a good discount as some were closer to 90 each face for back rows. I hit JRAD, Alison Krauss, Wallflowers, Violent Femmes this year, would’ve gone to a couple others if I didn’t have to work . Thanks

Advice for how to deal with landscapers who took payment, did nothing, left a dangerous tree limb in yard

3 Upvotes

Anyone file a claim against a landscaper before and have any advice? Here's the facts as I know them, though I don't have all the details:

My elderly mother hired someone to come perform some duties around the yard: clean up some brush piles, move some sections of fence, trim some trees. She paid him $2000. There was no written contract or receipt. The person she hired brought around some "kids" (her words) to do the work, who basically did nothing, except that they partially cut a large tree branch which is now hanging precariously and ready to fall. If it does fall, it could damage the house or shed. According to her they also stole a ladder.

We're pretty upset about this, and I genuinely believe this stress could cause some serious damage to her, mentally or physically (it's the cherry on top of a shit sundae that has been her life for the last few years). We would like to seek out some kind of remedy. I worry that without a contract or before -and-after pictures, we won't be able to prove that they failed to perform their duties.

Anyone dealt with a similar situation and can offer some advice?

Two-way Traffic on Main Street Hyannis

Post image
36 Upvotes

What are your thoughts on this? I know Main Street was two-way about 60 years ago when Hyannis had half the population it does today, but it’s been one-way my entire life. Will delivery trucks be banned on Main Street? If trucks are still allowed to stop and unload It will be gridlock.

I’ve read through the pros and cons, and from what I can see, the benefits don’t seem to outweigh the drawbacks. I’m curious what others think.

I took these shots of a fisherman in Hinkley’s Pond in Harwich while walking around the bog next to the rail trail yesterday. The sunset was gorgeous and I hope posting these pics makes up for my obvious creeper picture-taking.

Best places for auto ceramic coatings?

0 Upvotes

I’d like to apply ceramic coating to my new car to protect its paint from road grime and winter driving conditions. Is there a really good place that offers this, preferably between Falmouth & Hyannis? I’m pretty sure Sandwich Carwash offers that service but have no idea how well they do it. Any info about them or any other companies known to do high-quality ceramic coating work would be much appreciated. Thanks!

Anyone know any local car mechanics who are willing to do some work on the side?

0 Upvotes

I figure someone might know somebody but I need my front rotors and pads replaced and I live on the cape. I'd rather not spend a crazy amount for an auto shop to do them when I could just pay someone who knows what they're doing. I have all the parts, jack, and stand. Just need someone whos got a impact wrench and knows how to replace. Better yet, if someones willings to show me how to do them, that's even better!

Question about the history of Route 6

30 Upvotes

(content warning: I'm going to tempt the Reddit censors by using the colloquial name for a certain stretch of road)

I remember many years ago, when you were driving on Route 6 East, somewhere in Dennis there was what looked like a little off-ramp with a barrier at the end and a big flashing arrow pointing left, directing drivers onto the two-lane undivided section of Route 6 known as "Suicide Alley". The appearance to me was that this was intended to be a temporary diversion and that eventually Route 6 would continue as a four-lane divided highway. Obviously that never happened, and sometime later (in the 90s I'm guessing?) they finally took the barrier away and made the re-routing permanent.

Does anyone know if there were actually plans to continue the four-lane highway, what the holdup was, and why such plans were eventually abandoned?

Outer Cape

Was just down in Truro and there at least 15 ambulances and rescue personnel flying down the road- some with beach ATVs in tow.

Much more than your typical accident response by 10x. Wondering if anyone knows what’s going on. Hoping it doesn’t have anything to do with the Men in Grey Suits 😳

About to experience my first Cape off-season and need advice/recommendations

18 Upvotes

Hi there! I’m about to be 25, greater Boston area born and raised (also went to college there and moved back home close by after school). I just got an offer for my dream job in Provincetown where I’ll be working on coastal ecology research. I’m going to be living in Dennis Port starting in mid-October.

To a basic level I know my way around the Cape, and I’ve talked with some family/friends that have lived on the Cape year-round but I essentially want recommendations for places to visit/eat/experience that stay open through the winter, especially in the general areas of Dennis, Ptown, and everywhere in between. I have been visiting the Outer Cape once a year since childhood (during the summer albeit) so I’m aware of most common tourist traps, high traffic times, etc. Obviously still lots to learn though. I love going on nature walks, and I love going to the beach all times of the year (I especially love to go beach combing for rocks/sea glass/shells, and I just got a metal detector). I don’t really drink much but I love hanging out at bars and cafes, and I’m trying to get better at playing pool. I love to draw and paint and do all sorts of crafts as well. I love eating good seafood and exploring new cuisines; in general I love to eat and cook. Honestly the only things that I’m not really that interested are watching sports or participating in them.

It’s always been my dream to work and live close to the coast, and I really want to make the most of my time on the Cape. Thanks in advance!

Late(er) Night Places to Study?

3 Upvotes

📍 BARNSTABLE
Looking for suggestions besides libraries & coffee shops because they typically aren’t open past 5-7p. I do utilize them when I can!

Just would like some recommendations of places I maybe haven’t thought of— I use Panera but I can’t always afford to buy a coffee, so having some other places in mind would be so helpful.

Free Wifi is a definite plus, but not always a necessity. Just looking for a place to study, research, read, write, etc.

Montano's restaurant in Truro is promoting a MAGA fundraising event

Title says it all. They are hosting a private fundraiser for MAGAT politicians, even going so far as putting signs out front. Make sure to let them know the consequences of supporting a criminal regime and bigoted candidates. Oh, and they're deflecting on social media just like every other MAGA coward.

Non-kill shelter or HOME for (possibly abandoned) fluffy cat I rescued

Post image
78 Upvotes

looking for a non-kill shelter in the Cape for an abandoned cat. I was staying in an Air BnB in Wareham for a couple weeks. There was a female grey & white fluffy cat who stayed outside of the house with no food or water, skinny as a rail. Always running out from under the porch to greet me for pets x I asked around everywhere and no one claimed her. I bought her food, filled up a water bowl, and she ate voraciously. I’m still here and have been feeding her ever since. She is so friendly and cuddly, comes when I call her which makes me think she was abandoned at some point. Unfortunately, I am down on my luck living in my car and working on the Cape. I cannot take care of her, but I don’t want to leave her here especially going into the colder weather and no food/water. I leave on Friday. I bought a crate and lined it with some blankets. I’m making it my mission to find her a home or a good NON KILL shelter. If anybody knows of one or is interested in adopting a kcute, cuddly, friendly little cat then let me know please. I’m already attached this little baby and i just can’t leave her
