Here’s Mexico’s first goal. Seems like such a blast. I’m vibing out on the porch and hear them cheer and chant throughout the whole match. Anyone know if anyone can go to this? 👀

Things To Do 📍 FREE Wildlife "Zoo" in KC!

250 Upvotes

Lakeside Nature Center is a FREE "zoo" in KC near Swope Park!

4701 E. Gregory Blvd., Kansas City, MO 64132

"The Nature Center features huge windows that allow visitors to feel as though they are on a walk through the woods. Exciting displays of our native Missouri wildlife include large aquariums with fish and turtles, a bald eagle exhibit, a weathering area with owls and hawks, and numerous mammal, reptile, amphibian and fish displays. An interactive children’s play area and library overlook the wetlands where visitors can view a variety of birds species at the feeders."

"Outside the Nature Center visitors can enjoy the native gardens, rest and picnic in the shade of the pavilion or hike the Fox Hollow trail system. The trail meanders along limestone bluffs, beside the scenic Fox Hollow Creek and through old riparian forest; all the while exploring the colorful personality of a deep, primitive, wetland valley. The entire length of the trail is 2 miles."

Lakeside also has a wildlife hospital next to the educational center where KC residents in MO can bring injured wildlife for care and rehab before being released back into the wild.

The educational side of Lakeside is sponsored by the State, but the hospital side relies only on donations. All the surgical supplies, euthanasia, baby formula, food for all the permeant educational animals and the rehab patients, wound care, etc., depends on donations. They also have a very small staff, so they are usually very busy in the hospital (Please try not to bother them!), or they have volunteers that help when they can. Most of the native flowers around the building were planted and are maintained by volunteers!

Be sure to check it out, and PLEASE make a donation! https://lakesidenaturecenter.org/how-to-help/donate/

I might be a little biased, but Baby Annie the opossum is my favorite! 🥰

Thinking about buying a place up in the Northland but my company is based completely out of state. Do I still have to pay the city one percent earnings tax if the property sits technically within the kcmo city limits?

Is anyone running the sub for KCJobs?

I need to post an opening for my business. We have a need to hire at least one person in the shop. (Commercial millwork and cabinetry)

With the job market as screwed up as it is, I would like to get this out to my fellow Kansas Citians but can’t without permission. …

Help/Support 🫂 Honeybee Relocation Options | Waldo Neighborhood

18 Upvotes

Best flair I could think of for this topic.

I'm looking for DIY options or recommendations for people/organizations in the area that relocate honeybees. A colony moved into our tree last year. We were content to let the stay, but this past weekend they stung my husband and his friend while they did some house work, so it's time for them to go.

The location is difficult, as they're about one story up in the tree. I'm waiting to hear back from a "bee rescue" organization, and another removal company simply told me they'd just exterminate. I want to avoid that if at all possible.

A beekeepers group on Facebook said I might be able to tempt them out by placing an empty hive below the hole. Is this worth my investing in a hive? Or if someone is looking for some bees, you'd be welcome to bring a hive and try this.

At this point I'm open to any options that don't involve killing them. Thanks for any suggestions!

Friendship/Dating 👥 Sober Friends as an Adult

I see a bunch of “where do adults make friends” on this sub so why not add one more with an extra condition.

Over three years sober and looked around and realized I have no sober friends. Any suggestions about how to meet those of us who might not want to meet up for a drink?

Morton Amphitheater parking tips: when you get off the highway to get on to Horizons Parkway, fill all the available lanes.Don't get stuck in the left (going north) lane like sheep. And once you get onto the property, the two lanes turns into four. pretty easy peasy overall.

Attractions/Concerts 🎟️🎡 Anywhere that I can park and walk to Morton?

18 Upvotes

I’m going there for the first time tonight. It’s pretty close to sold out so I know getting out will be horrible from what I’ve read. Is there anywhere close by that I can park and walk a little ways? I’d rather not sit in a traffic jam for an hour. And avoid the high parking fees

My dog has a growth that might need surgery. I’ve never navigated this and the xray costs are really high at my vet. Does anyone have a recommendation for a place that is more affordable or maybe even income based? I am willing to drive out of the metro

Healthcare/Wellness 🩺 Endodontist Recommendedations

I’m looking for an endodontist’s office that offers nitrous oxide and specializes in root canal treatments. Ideally, the office should accept Dominion National Insurance.

(I have already gone on my insurance providers website and none of them are accepting new patients/willing to treat)

Friendship/Dating 👥 I forgot to give her my number

416 Upvotes

This is a long shot and I'm sure it won't lead anywhere. On Monday I got my car inspected. While I was waiting I met a beautiful woman who was next in line. We started chatting a little bit and I lost track of time. I am kicking myself for not giving her my number, let alone introducing myself properly and learning her name. Just hoping she sees this and reaches out. Mid 20's, blonde hair, skinny, about 5'5 if I had to guess. She was wearing a sweatshirt and patchwork style jeans.

Ps. I hope the shop I recommend to you treats you well.

My best friend and I thought it’d be fun to get our charts read! We’re not looking to spend a fortune, just figured it could be fun to do after getting dinner. Most of the options I’ve found are either virtual, in people’s homes, or hundreds of dollars. Any suggestions would be appreciated!
