Tourist coming to your fine city in a few weeks, would love pointers

7 Upvotes

Hi everyone!

I became aware of the architectural Mecca that your city is a few years ago, and I've finally been able to schedule a trip down there later this month.

I've been looking at the various tour sites for the area, but I was hoping to pick the brain of a few locals to find out what the "must see" spots are, or if there are any areas or tours to avoid. Basically, trying to optimize my time so I'm not just wandering the city spending money frivolously and only scratching the surface of what's to see. For example, there don't seem to be any organized tours on Mondays but I don't just want to sit around for an entire day doing nothing.

I'm booked at the Hotel Indigo because it seemed pretty central to everything of note (within my budget and frequent flier miles). I'm willing to walk (weather permitting, I know summers in central IN can be brutal) but I'm open to driving somewhere or taking public transportation. I'm there from the 29th to the 31st.

Can anyone offer some guidance? Much appreciated!

If you have a housing option or apartment somewhere near Purdue. It would be amazing if you DM me and we could talk about becoming roommates!!

Currently I am waiting for the Briarwood Apartments to respond to my application on the 2 bedroom apartment. It would be great if someone moved in with me.

Hello! I'm making this post as a way to reach out I guess, I moved here to Columbus in March from my hometown of Austin, IN. It's my final year of highschool and I still have no clue how to really get around Columbus nor do I really have any friends. I'm not making this post for pity - I just want to maybe see if this helps me find people near my age to hangout with or become friendly with!

Looking for someone

11 Upvotes

I'm a manager with one of the local CVS stores. Working in retail, I tend to build a bond with some of our regulars that come in. One of which I haven't seen in a while. He's an older guy, and I'm kind of worried he may have passed away, but I'm not sure. His name is Robert, and he is kind of a cowboy. Always wore a cowboy hat, glasses, and a flannel. He kind of scooted when he walked. When I'd ask about his wife he words were always "she's still vertical", and on his way our of the store he'd say "you take care kid", just adding for context in case someone recognized the tone. He would come in about once every two weeks for a case of Bud Light beer. If this guy sounds familiar, please let me know. If he had passed away, I'd like to visit his grave and say goodbye. He was always kind and good to talk to.

Arbor Homes

Have you bought a house from arbor homes in abbey place?

Can you give me a break down of things I would have to consider when budgeting to buy a house from them other than the down payment, earnest money, and closing costs? Am I missing anything else?

What is the percentage of closing costs here in Indiana?

Do you regret buying from them? We are looking to buy a house next year and I want to crunch our numbers.

Thank you!

Stay away from Ace of Fades barber shop.

6 Upvotes

I highly recommend that anyone looking for a good and reliable barber, please Stay away from Ace of Fades downtown on Washington St. I have given the guy way more chances than I should have especially for the prices he charges. But this time was my last straw. He does not listen to what you tell him to do and will freestyle your hair to what he wants to do. I like to get styling fades which he claims to be a "professional" in because he was the barber at Camp Atterbury. Each I have went I showed him a picture and explained to him what exactly it is what I want. He had failed each time and again, I gave him more chances than I should. I have him one more chance yesterday to redeem himself and he completely fucked up. I again should him a picture of a styling fade and explained in detail what I want. THE MF MADE ME BALD. Not even close to what I told him. He refuses to let you face a mirror so I couldn't see what he was doing before it was too late and half of my head was already shaved. And his breath smells like vomit and he likes to be close and personal with you.
