I've had mint for 3 years in Richmond and haven't had any issues. At least not any more than my friends with other carriers!

Our backyard is almost completely shaded and we were going to do it the first week of March.

I’m going to guess either East Coast Provisions or Les Crepes

Haha well I’d still go for it. I wouldn’t do it at the river, but the stuff is literally marketed as sidewalk chalk.

Lol it would just be me drawing for fun. No kids, just a 24 year old doodling flowers and stuff.

It’s chalk, they’re kids. If someone has a problem with it, they can go back in time to Soviet Russia, where they still probably let kids chalk up the sidewalks with impunity

Torx Media is a good choice

Is anyone using a lawn service to plant clover? I can’t do it myself and was gonna start looking out for someone.

Can’t say enough good things about Red Orange.

There's a special police task force that shows up in the middle of the night and "disappears" people for chalking on sidewalks.

I drink piss all the time, it’s sterile. Or it’s not, but either way it’s pretty okay once you get used to it. But yeah if it looks like piss out of the tap, I wouldn’t drink that.

I had to learn the hard way that RVA is best suited for cool season grasses like fescue. Remember to keep seeding starting in fall to winter. Spring and summer are to maintain your lawn using pre and post emergent weed control.

My t mobile wasn't working at all last month. Reset my phone and updated and I have it fine now.

The water that comes out of my taps is clear. The building I live in was built in 1850. You might wanna not drink that.

T-Mobile had an outage recently that messed up some Mint users. Have you turned your phone off for five minutes and then cut it back on? That solved all of her issues.

Same. I wasted a ton of money and time with grass seed for no reason. I just mow it now and have discovered no downside.

I second that... Truly a gem... Also Dead Rock... And a little further out there's that rock with the hole you can swim through underwater. It's kind of scary the first time you do it.

That ceiling is crazy! You can't deny that our city has some pretty cool architecture and a whole lot of character. I didn't know that I love Richmond until I lived in other places for some years. Phoenix Arizona for example.... No character it's like just a big grid. Maybe the streets are crazy here and you can't turn left but gosh darn it I love this city and I always will. And I love that you guys are loving it with me!

Mine is an allergy, though not an anaphylactic one. It's OAS, a subset of hay fever, and it causes my mouth and throat to itch after eating raw fruits and vegetables. Some stuff, like bananas and avocados, even makes my throat swell. However, if the food is cooked or processed, I can eat it just fine. Wasn't sure if that was a thing with any other allergies though.

I have Mint and it works well. Breaks up sometimes in Varina. I used to work for nTelos and we used Sprint towers. We were told that Sprint customers had better signal than nTelos customers were given. I assume it’s still the same when a company like Mint rents signal from T-Mobile. So some minor loss in signal may be expected. Take this with a grain of salt, as I worked for nTelos about ten years ago.

I've been using weebly. You can build it yourself pretty easily and its way cheaper than Shopify

Oh I see. That doesn’t sound fun at all, I’m sorry. That’s cool that you can still enjoy some of those things if they’re prepared a certain ways. It’s a total no go for me.
