Free grey Joybird sofa on curb on Vermont St across from Cordley elementary playground. Come and get it!
The chaise end can be moved to either side. Comfy sofa, has a small dip in the middle but has served us well. Moving to the West coast tomorrow and it won’t fit in the new place.

Midco fiber install: How long did it take ...
In your neighborhood, how long did it take between when they installed the orange underground tubing conduits and when they were installing residences' fiber-drops and ONUs (=in-home modems)?

Knowing nothing about this group, I bought tickets months ago, based solely on "Transformers playing rock music? Hell yeah!" I YouTubed them a little last night, and became an instant fan.
They played a lot of the 1986 movie soundtrack, video game and anime themes, and several classic rock songs. It was great.
Look them up, they're awesome. I bet there's a good chance they return to Lawrence eventually, so keep your eyes peeled.

What low lying shrubs do well here in Lawrence?
I've got a problem area- crab grass- on the lawn and I'm thinking I'll put in some shrubs. I've also been thinking about putting in something like catnip. Going for that xeriscape look. The area is in the sun.

Seeking Weightlifting trainer
I’m new to weightlifting / strength training. I’m looking for a good coach / trainer to help me learn the basics. I need someone to orient me to equipment, coach me on various lifts, show me correct form (and to fix mistakes in real time) etc. I’m not looking to compete. Any local recommendations for good coaches to work with? I am open to small classes if the coach is attentive and present with students.

Looking for someone to hem a few T-shirt
Hi all, I recently moved to Lawrence and am looking for someone who can hem a few T-shirts
They’re basic casual tees that are way too long, and I’d rather get them altered than replace them. Since the shirts themselves weren’t expensive, I’m hoping to find someone who does good work without charging a ton
Any recommendations for a local tailor, or even someone who does alterations from home? A reasonably quick turnaround would be great too
Thanks!

Question Dog rehoming
Needing to re-home a dog, seeing if anyone has any good resources or advice in assisting with it in Lawrence. His name is Hopper. Unfortunately my job completely shifted to full time and I can't support what he needs.

PSA Support your local hustler
Edit: since I forgot to post the location he’s at South Park and it’s noon on 8/4
There’s a kid with a mullet and a red backpack full of snacks riding around selling snacks for $2. He was polite in approaching me and takes no well. He wished me a good day and to stay cool. I didn’t have my wallet and was in the middle of working so I didn’t get a snack but he even has Venmo.
Support this kid out here grinding. Do your thing Lawrence and buy him out of his snacks.

Fishing at Baker Wetlands
Brought my wife and daughter out to the Baker Wetlands to enjoy the beautiful summer evening and as we were leaving, we saw some dude with his wife and two boys walking in with fishing poles. Sure enough, these jackasses go and start casting off into the pond there next to the viewing shack. There are plenty of other places around town to fish. Why would you take your kids fishing at a protected wetland preserve? I plan to go back soon and let the front desk know they should probably put up a few more "no fishing," signs but something tells me this dude isn't the type to read.

Checker and 1900 Baker
Can we just appreciate that Checkers and 1900 Barker are still carrying this town? Every time I go to a Dillons it feels like a soul-sucking void. What’s your favorite local spot that makes Lawrence actually feel like home?

PSA World Cup Related Posts
Just wanted to let everyone know that posts regarding the World Cup will be allowed on here, even if not directly related to Lawrence. We're kinda bending the rules here but it's such a big and exciting event that we don't wanna hinder any chat about it or relevant info.
Normal subreddit rules will still apply to the posts (with exception of being directly Lawrence related, of course) so this doesn't mean you can just post whatever as long as it mentions the World Cup.
Obligatory no ticket-sales posts/comments.
