re: Baton Rouge runners: where do you run?
Posted by Prettyjumbles on 10/12/25 at 8:10 pm to HubbaBubba
Let's not talk about that. Let's just say, I didn't win races, but I did finish them. Most I run these days is a few miles once a week.

Other neighborhoods? I can usually get 3 miles in the Garden District(start at City Park), Capitol Heights, Webb Park area, Sevenoaks area, Tara, or Southdowns (I used to park at the catholic church).
Longer runs might mishmash some areas.
When I marathon trained a million years ago, one time I ran from LSU to Tara and back to log 20 miles.
I used mapmyrun to map routes but there may be better options now.

re: When did Chiropracters start using the open bay set up?
Posted by Prettyjumbles on 10/8/25 at 10:29 am to prplhze2000
About 7 years ago, I had 2 or 3 adjustments at a clinic and felt better after an injury. A few years later, I had a similar flare up, but my first chiropractor had moved away so I went to a recommended clinic on Perkins near Essen. This guy had a similar setup up, told me it would take at least 40 visits to feel better, told me his whole treatment area was recorded, and generally gave me creep vibes. I decided doing some yoga and strength training was probably enough and went that route instead.
re: Best Neighborhoods in Baton Rouge

Westminster/Pine Park has been great. Lots of families and kids out riding bikes and walking. The neighborhood pool, while not fancy, seems to be a popular activity for families and there is a pickleball court. Easy access to I-10 & I-12. In St. George and my councilperson lives in the neighborhood.
The oldest filings have the smallest houses, but most are on .25 acre lots at least with some in Flood Zone X. Those houses may be a better bargain when they go up for sale.

re: Tennis vs golf vs pickleball
Posted by Prettyjumbles on 8/28/25 at 9:09 am to HeadedToTheWoods
I hadn't picked up a tennis racket in 20 years, but a buddy plays and invited me to go out for a few sets. I was suprised that I retained some skills after so many years and I was able to consistently serve and hit (mostly) inside the lines.

re: EGO lawn equipment
Posted by Prettyjumbles on 7/29/25 at 10:35 am to CAD703X
I usually cut my front yard one day and my back yard the other (it's hot and I want a break). I can finish all of the front with about half a battery, and the back with a full one. I only use self propelled function for some particularly thick areas, and i'm happy I have the option.

I'm on my second summer with the self propelled lawnmower. Works fine.
re: Train Derailment in Avoyelles Parish today.
Posted by Prettyjumbles on 5/7/25 at 9:24 pm to OldmanBeasley
I seem to remember reading that the KCS Bridge over the Atchafalaya in Simmesport used to carry both cars and trains on one deck before a new vehicular only bridge was built in the early 1970s. I think there was some kind of red light system that warned cars when a train was coming so they wouldn't end up on the bridge at the same time as the train. That's my Avoyelles Parish Railroad fun fact.

I was expecting a shoot out and got whatever that was instead.
re: Toyota RAV4 vs Mazda CX
Posted by Prettyjumbles on 1/2/25 at 8:12 pm to Sharlo
I've been driving a 11+ yr old Mazda 3 (purchased new) without any real problems. Its older, so some things need to be replaced as they wear, but it has been reliable. Over 150k miles. Plan to buy a new Mazda suv when I finally decide that I want a car note again.
re: Neighborhoods with good Christmas light displays in Baton Rouge

I heard a rumor that the family had a daughter that passed who loved Christmas, and this is one of the ways they keep her memory alive.
re: What are some products you associate with old people?

Those butter cookies in a blue tin at Christmas.
Black jellybeans (I like these)
Italian fig cookies with the sprinkles (these are great too)
Word Find puzzle books

Did dey really catch that crawfish in Arabi on the first day of Christmas? I never thought of Arabi as a crawfish town.
re: Anyone own(ed) a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel?
Posted by Prettyjumbles on 12/13/24 at 9:14 pm to High C
Never had a Cavalier, but I've owned 3 Cocker Spaniels and have known 2 other Cockers very well. Make sure you stay on top of their ears because they are prone to ear infections, but preventative maintenance goes a long way. Spaniels are the best.

re: Anyone's neighborhood/subdivision use "Flock Safety" License Plate Reader at entrance?
Posted by Prettyjumbles on 11/7/24 at 6:43 pm to TigersnJeeps
We have them at each of the four entrances to the neighborhood and the neighborhood is also a crime prevention district. I was told at our civic association meeting that the board doesn't have access to footage.

I misspoke...the Drusilla house doesn't have a homestead exemption, but it is owned by individuals and not a group home llc.
Either way, I've seen it in my line of work many times.
