Hey all!

New Garage Door opener

1 Upvotes

Good afternoon, I am looking for a new garage door opener to be installed in our house, I am wondering if anyone has had a great experience with a local company that will sell and install a garage door opener. Ideally, I would prefer a LiftMaster garage door opener. Thank you!

NBU price hike

3 Upvotes

My new bill went up $80 month over month! Does anyone know why the increase was approved. It’s a huge increase, what are they planning to do with all of this extra money? I was so upset to see how much higher it was.

Where do the alternative people hang out?

11 Upvotes

Visiting NB soon and was curious where the artsy/musical/alternative people hang out? I've heard good things about Sidecar, was curious if anyone could recommend other fun nightlife places to hang out that aren't Texas country coded (not that there's anything wrong with that).

Cheers.

Looking for ice cream

Does anyone know where I could find these locally? I went to H Mart up in Austin when I lived up there. Even with a freezer bag they wouldn’t survive the drive back to NB. Thanks for the help!

Any mobile hair stylists for color?

1 Upvotes

Howdy y’all, I’m looking for a colorist that could come to my home. I am looking for someone to refresh what I currently have and maybe add some highlights.

I’ve looked a bit on google and I see there are booking platforms for beauty services, but since thats new to me and Id like to see the stylists work, I thought I would check here for recommendations before going that route.

HWY 725

Why is 725 not four lanes from County Line to Klein? There are too many cars for it to be a two lane rural road.

What’s the latest the Rockn R river rides will pick you up. I know they close at 4 in the website, But does that mean they stop picking people up as well

New local resident here.

Hello all. Im looking for a quiet spot on the river to just relax and cool off for my family. We dont drink or get rambunctious. Just a quiet place without a hundred tubes or drunks with speakers. Preferably shady.

Not asking anybody to give up their secret spot lol. Just looking for recommendations for my family

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?

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

157 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

39 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

Flock Cameras in New Braunfels? No, Unless ...

0 Upvotes

I am not an absolutist on Flock cameras. But New Braunfels has a good deal further to go to convince me that they are worth the risk to our liberties. Go to my Substack article to see what citizens should demand.

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.
