Been thinking about this all week. Good to see it getting traction here.

Partners Resource Network training was life-changing for us. They teach you your rights under IDEA in plain English. The workshops are free and in-person in Dallas. Every SPED parent should attend.

LFA to UFC pipeline is real. ive seen at least 5 fighters live at LFA events who are now in the UFC. knowing you watched them before the big stage is a cool feeling

Been thinking about this all week. Good timing on the post.

Lazy S Farm eggs ruined store-bought eggs for me forever. The color difference alone — bright orange yolks vs pale yellow. You can taste the difference in everything from scrambled eggs to baking.

Auto theft is the one that worries me. My neighbor's Hyundai was stolen from their driveway in Liberty Grove last month. Gone in 90 seconds according to the Ring camera. These Kia/Hyundai thefts are epidemic.

Sharing this with my neighbors. They need to see this.

Following. Want to see what others think before I weigh in.

I fish from the pier at Paddle Point 3-4 times a week in the spring. The catfish around the pier pilings are reliable. Bring cut shad or punch bait. Early morning or after sunset are the best bite windows.

I tried working from the Rowlett Public Library on Main St and it was honestly great. Free wifi, quiet study rooms, no purchase required. Not a coffee shop but worth mentioning for the work-from-home crowd.

Real talk right here. No sugarcoating.

The real cost of driving that nobody calculates: stress, car maintenance, insurance premium based on mileage. DART saves money you don't even think about.

i did crossfit for 3 years before trying a wrestling practice. crossfit did NOT prepare me. i was dying 20 minutes into wrestling practice and the high schoolers were laughing at me

Adding to this — check out the spot on Greenville Ave too. Underrated.

Great list but you missed the best one. The one on Belt Line is the real deal.

Springfield Park is the heart of Liberty Grove. Saturday mornings there are amazing — soccer games, families at the playground, people walking dogs on the trail. It's community.

The turbidity/clarity is my main complaint. You can't see your feet at waist depth. It's a muddy North Texas reservoir, not Lake Tahoe. Adjust expectations accordingly.

The medical office complex on Lakeview is a good sign. More healthcare close to home means fewer trips to Garland or Rockwall for routine stuff. Especially important for the growing senior population.

Important for Houston residents to be aware of this.

We moved back to Rowlett after rebuilding. Our new house has a safe room — reinforced concrete, rated for EF5. It cost $8,000 to add during construction. If you're building or renovating in Rowlett, add a safe room. You will never regret it.

Belal at 5 is correct and i hate it. the man is dominant but i would rather watch paint dry than sit through another 5 round Belal decision. respect the skill, reject the entertainment

The 2016 snapshot makes me emotional. I lost my house in the tornado. I remember standing in what used to be my living room and looking at the sky through where the roof had been. We rebuilt. We're still here. Rowlett is still here.

Paddle Point sunset bench is the real deal. I proposed to my wife there. She said the view was better than the ring. I choose to take that as a compliment.

Local politics affect your daily life more than national. Worth paying attention.

Sapphire Bay is either going to be the best thing to happen to Rowlett or the most overhyped. I am cautiously optimistic. The crystal lagoon concept is wild.
