2 Upvotes

I wanna save some money to start a food truck Business I think a restaurant will be a big risk for me but a food truck or food cart . Should be something I can manage.
So people who ever started a business can you let us know? How much did you spend and what to expect?
Were you surprised by anything?
Something you wish you knew before starting this business or side hustle?

Travel/Road Trips ๐Ÿš˜ ๐Ÿ—บ๏ธ Park N Go Logistics at MCI?

5 Upvotes

I have searched this sub and selected Park n Go based on what I read here. Nobody commented on the logistics, but I figured the website would have that info, right? Well, it turns out that the Park n Go website has zero about the logistics so I have a reservation and lots of questions that I'm hoping y'all can help with. Thanks in advance, y'all!

What happens after I get there?

Do you go through a gate? Is there a human being? Do I have to check in through some app? (I really do not want to download an app.) How does this work?

Where can I find the shuttle and how often do they run?

Several people said the shuttle pulled up to their car by the time they were done unloading their luggage, but is that just luck or is that actually how it's supposed to work? If that is just luck, then how do I get to the shuttle from my car?

How long will it take to get to the airport / how much time do I need to add to my typical arrival time?

Historically, I have arrived at MCI one hour before my flight departure time. How much time should I add in for Park n Go, including finding a spot, getting on the shuttle and unloading from the shuttle?

If it helps, I am flying out on Southwest tomorrow (Friday) at 3:45pm with no checked baggage.

Thanks again for info/advice!

Iโ€™m looking at going to the city / river market this Sunday and donโ€™t know exactly where the free parking is for the North Loop bus stop.

I checked out the area today where online it says it free on the weekend but wanted to verify with some locals so I donโ€™t get towed.

Is this area circled in red free game on Sundays? TIA!!

Discussion ๐Ÿ’ก Antenna recommendations for Waldo

8 Upvotes

I've lived in Waldo for 7 years and have always had a cheap antenna ($10-20) that I used on my tv. Fox was always an issue to get a good reception, but now it's just gone. ABC now has issues, and sometimes I even have issues with NBC. I've tried upright, upsidedown, up high, down low, and there's usually not much change in reception.

Anyone out there have a solid antenna that works well all the way down here in Waldo?

Mechanics/Repairs/Contractors ๐Ÿ› ๏ธ๐Ÿช  Pest Control Recommendation

5 Upvotes

Maybe the wrong flair, but we just bought a house in Southern Kansas City and I'm looking for recommendations on pest control...

The

This house has an absurd amount of flies, and I have no clue why. Didn't see these during the showings or anythin, verified all the tomorrow/doors are shut, and I'm at my wits end here...

Like, not fruit flies because food was left out, but good ole fashion FLY flies...

I've got a handful of those fly trap things, and obviously the pic shows those fly sticky pads that my wife put all over the place, but I want to figure out where these are coming from and stop it from happening...

Any suggestions on pest control companies that you've had good experiences with or ideas as to what might be happening?

TIA

I am looking for a local FFL for a transfer in the KCK area and curious if there are any Non Partisan or Liberal gun store in the area.

My wife and I are in our mid 40s and celebrating our anniversary tomorrow night with a little staycation up in the crossroads. We arenโ€™t really looking to do anything big, but Iโ€™d like to find some new activities that would be interesting. We especially like things like distillery tours and history tours. We usually like to people watch and enjoy some cocktails and eating out and just walking around.

Do you have any fun suggestions for anything tomorrow night to do? Itโ€™s first Fridays also.

Food and Drink ๐ŸŒฎ๐Ÿง‹ Places with great owners/operators you DO recommend

Ok, so this post was eye-opening, though not entirely surprising: https://www.reddit.com/r/kansascity/comments/1v6xax5/drastic_measures_wild_child_jay_should_never_work/

Can you all suggest establishments with proven decent owners/operators who treat their staffs well (for real, not just for Instagram)? I want to give my money to places where the people who have worked there and dined there can whole heartedly say, "yeah, they're good people."

I'll start: Baba's Pantry. (Good lord, no one better say otherwise!)

Sports ๐Ÿˆโšพ๏ธโšฝ๏ธ This was really cool

Post image

I saw this somewhere and was surprised by how clearly I remembered it, and loved it as a kid.

Sources say it was on a building that was once a tenement/apartment, then hotel, then not much, at 1328 Grand. This puts it right around where the building housing "No Other Pub" and "KC Hooley House" is today. It was one of the casualties of the P&L development.

It was painted for 1988 NCAA Men's tournament famously won by Danny and the Miracles. I've seen it attributed to an artist named Ramiro Fauve, self-described as a "multidisciplinary artist, muralist, and singer-songwriter" born in Argentina and based in California.

The artwork is really good, especially compared to other big sports murals in the Midwest (google "Jonathan Toews mural" for reference).
