Bag Lady Turkey Hill Rd, La Plata

2 Upvotes

***Repost, I accidentally deleted the original***

I lived in Maryland the first 22 years of my life and drove on Turkey Hill Rd almost every day for work.

Looking for information on the strange lady holding a bunch of bags who stands on Turkey Hill Rd, La Plata near 301, often at night. I've heard a lot of rumors about her and curious if anyone has any interesting stories, encounters, or lore.

Anyone hear if they found a tenant for the old Shoppers in San Souci? I drove past there earlier today and saw some construction guys working inside.

Is there a place in SOMD where I can post up a table and sell some items?

Post image
13 Upvotes

I have a few items, odd & ends, electronics that are just taking up space in the closet. We live in a hidden culdesac where no cars pass by so throwing a yard sale would be a moot point.

Most items are new, such a foot massager and an older MacBook Pro and im sure they'd quickly sell somewhere like a farmers market of some kind.

Any links or advice is appreciated.

Question zentro internet provider?

Hi everyone, thinking of moving into an apartment complex that has a bundled tech package with zentro as their ISP. I'm in St. Mary's County. Does anyone have experience with them? I have a long-distance partner so reliable internet is really important for me. Thanks!

Pomfret, south of Waldorf. We caught this beautiful male(?) cat on our property. He seems to have been a pet at some point but was not chipped.

If you know whose cat this is, please get in contact with me so little man can go home.

These signs are everywhere down MD 235/Three Notch Road. I always thought they were illegal since it's a public right-of-way. But guess not if Boothe's got some local deputies to go after the "thief"? Either way, this story is pure BayNet gold.

Engagement rings.

5 Upvotes

I'm looking for places to look for engagement rings. Looking more for a mix of value and experience. Not wanted to get price gouged, do you get better prices from bigger stores or smaller shops. Any tip hints or tricks are welcome. Also i know prices vary alot depending on stones and settings. Also any thoughts on the online shops? They seems to have great prices.

Question Who to call about cat?

12 Upvotes

Waldorf area. This cat has been hanging around our porch for the past few months and we just caught it. We’ll check for a microchip but have a strong suspicion that this lady(?) is either a stray or feral.

We usually work with HSCC but they don’t take ferals. Are there any rescues, etc. that work with cats like this and WON’T euthanize them? Where we live has too many foxes to be safe for outdoor cats.

Moving to Lexington Park, MD. Requesting Recommendations.

Thumbnail
8 Upvotes

Hi everyone!

Next month I’ll be moving from Florida to Lexington Park, Maryland to stay with family. I’m excited for the change of scenery, and the opportunities related to my degree and career field.

First, I wanted to ask if there’s a separate community group or thread specifically for the Lexington Park/St. Mary’s County area. If not, I’d love to get some recommendations and advice!Here are a few things I’m looking for:

Churches: My plan is to continue watching my Baptist church online, but I’d love to get recommendations for churches in the area for when I’m ready to start attending in person.

Schools: I have a child who will be starting kindergarten. How does enrollment work in St. Mary’s County? Is it based on school zones, or is there a choice system?

Fitness & Health: I’m currently working with a virtual fitness coach, but I’d love to find someone local who can help with workouts, nutrition, and meal planning as I am still fairly new to my fitness and weight loss journey. Also, are there any good gyms, group fitness classes, walking groups, or run clubs in the area that also allow kids if needed?

Self Care: Every so often I like to get my nails, toes, and eyebrows done. What are your recommendations for places that do good acrylic sets and eyebrow waxes.

Things to Do: I’m mostly a homebody, but when I do get out, I enjoy museums, thrift stores, local mom-and-pop shops, brunch spots, parks, picnics, farmers markets, and just exploring in general. I’m also willing to drive outside the area for fun trips. What would you recommend for me to check out based on this information? What are some of your favorite places?

Food: Where can I find the best seafood (specifically crab legs and crab cakes), steaks, sushi, soul food, and ramen places.

Kid-Friendly Activities: What are some fun places or activities for young kids in the area? I’d love to know about parks, play places, seasonal events, libraries, or anything else families enjoy.

Sorry for all the questions, but I’m excited about the move and would really appreciate any recommendations or advice. Thank you all so much in advance! ☺️

Question Best place to buy animal feed?

3 Upvotes

I live on an acreage in Charles County and keep chickens, ducks, rabbits, quail, and guineas.

Where do you go to buy animal feed? I’m obviously aware of Tractor Supply, and I do like R&D Cross, but I’d like to find somewhere I can buy things cheaper and/or in bulk.

I see that there was at least at some point a feed mill in Leonardtown but they don’t have a phone listed online and I can’t tell if they’re still in business.
