Is 3 hours a good amount of time for White Post Farms?

We can only go on a Saturday and cannot get there until 2 PM and they close at 5 PM.

We are going this month for the Fall Festival.

The one and only thing we want to be sure to do for our toddler is the giraffe feeding. Is the line and wait for that very long usually?

Headphone Repair Shop

Anybody know a local place that fixes headphones? My fiance's Sony WH-1000XM5 stopped working in the right ear (common issue apparently) and I would like to get them repaired locally as they are out of warranty. I assume sending them back to Sony will take much longer than a local shop. Thanks!

Neighbors tree coming through fence. What are my options?

What are my options here? I had that same tree trimmed a few years ago when the branches were hanging over my property. Now it’s coming through my fence.

The issue is the owner of the property’s wife was livid when I had the branches trimmed. I don’t want to cause neighbor war but it’s coming through the fence and breaking it. Personally I wouldn’t mind having it gone.

I’m in town of Hempstead.

Thanks everyone for any advice.

Long Island - Yankees or Mets??

I’m in Rockville Centre and am seeing a lot of Mets hats…unofficial survey, who does Long Island go for more? I can understand Mets given slightly closer proximity to the team.

Where’s everyone watching the Mets playoff games this week?

Figure instead of watching the games at home I want to be surrounded by other Mets fans. I’m looking for a family friendly place in South Nassau so I can take our toddler. I’m thinking of either South Shore Craft Brewery or Platt Biergarten. Any other suggestions?

Colleges and Costs

So I’ve heard that private colleges in NY will give more money to NY residents to compete with the SUNY schools. Are you seeing that? Experience? Not income or race based.

How about other private schools out side of NY?

Thanks

Dancing Classes for people in their 20s?

I used to do hip hop classes when I was a kid and have been thinking about doing classes again as an adult. Does anyone know of any places near Glen Cove that offers Hip Hop classes for people in their 20s?

Looking for a roommate

I'm looking to move out. I'm thinking a 2 or 3 bedroom, and I'm open to almost anywhere on long island. I'm quiet and keep to myself and my ideal roommate is the same.

Bethpage Black

Hello all! I currently have this upcoming week off from work and am looking to play Bethpage black with a buddy of mine. I am from out a state and haven't had any luck with the online booking system it has been a nightmare. I'm thinking of camping out but have a couple questions. Are you able to camp out for weeknights? What time do you recomemd getting there? Is it likely that my buddy and I (twosome) are able to actually play the black course? Thanks in advance!

It's funny to think about how we go through all this to get absolutely bullied by a course but that is golf haha

Humidity battle

What's everyone's strategy for battling this humidity in their home?

Temps at night are dropping into the 60, but the humidity is insane, at like 90% every day/night. Most people on my block keep their AC off but it makes me wonder, do they all just live/sleep in a wet sock?

I see a lot of people say to use a demumidifer, which I have. When I use it though my house will heat up so much into the 80s.

My cousins and their Father are living in a hotel and are essentially homeless. Their last residency was in Suffolk County. But are in a Nassau Hotel Room. Are there any programs to help them?

I was heartbroken to learn that my cousins and their father lost their apartment and are running through the last of their money in a hotel room.

The kids are 19 and 16. My Uncle is 61 and unemployed.

If anyone could recommend any programs for emergency housing that would be incredible. My older cousin is so depressed and scared. I haven't spoken to my uncle or my other cousin. But my older cousin has come to my house a lot to eat and have a place away from the chaos.

Thank you in advance.
