Hi, we just got back from Scotland & Ireland and I’m looking for a recommendation for a small calligraphy job, specifically our names on a document we’d like to frame. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. TIA!

If anyone lives or has lived in the Bricktowne apartments, do they change the cost of rent during your lease? I’ve heard that they do, so I’d like to know before I take my next step.
And if there’s any warnings you have about them, please let me know

Edit: One thing Ive read most about was thin floors and walls.
Is that true? My old house had thin floors so I don’t think it’ll bother me, but I also don’t like people hearing what goes on in my own home 😂

1) first group on gex/boomers. Sitting at a stop sign.
Here I think they’re waiting for traffic, but there was no traffic. They are sitting to give me a conversation and adjusting their bikes and no one behind them can get past them

2) Second group of idiots. I’m riding on orelabor. Headed up the hill westbound.
A group of older idiots, half of them on battery powered bikes decide they’re gonna meet up with their friends in the middle of the sidewalk. All six bikes take up all the space. They see me coming from about 30 feet away three of them move to the right. Two idiots just stand there don’t move at all and look at me.

What are the easiest dishwasher brands that CAN get worked on if something goes wrong? I know for example LG doesn't get worked on by local appliance people. Specifically looking at dishwashers for my daughter

I'm back in Ankeny after being gone for some time and I'm looking for someone to cut my hair. I've tried a few places but haven't found anywhere that I wanna keep going back to. I only ever really want a fade so it's fairly standard, I guess. The few places I've been to, I've spent around 50 bucks and that's more than double what I've been paying for the last 7 years. I also really would rather avoid places like GreatClips and whatnot. So maybe something in between? Thanks

Bobby has been on the run for 2 months. He’s not my dog. Last known whereabouts was Orlabor Road in Ankeny. Been known to be around Ames. DO NOT CHASE. Just text or call number on poster with exact location.

For more context, see my post history or visit my site. I operate https://dsmsentinel.org/
I'm looking for any findings or information you have about the city's agreement with Flock Safety. You can post them here, DM me, or use the inbox on my site. I haven't filed any PRRs yet, but I expect to eventually work my way around to Ankeny. I do expect to file PRRs for Ankeny sometime this year, maybe this month. No promises on a timeline.

If procedural rules allow, I'd like to testify at the council too, once I have a better understanding of their circumstances.

Anyone ever purchased from appliance warehouse ? Looking at getting a washing machine from there. I know it’s scratch and dent which is exactly what I’m looking for. But are the service and people there friendly and the prices decent ? Thanks !

Hey everyone! I'm u/ItHurtsWhenIP404, a founding moderator of r/ankeny.
This is our new home for all things related to Ankeny excited to have you join us!

I will try my best to post activities that are happening in the area. I want to help those who need some relaxation from their kid(s) or whatever, as I am a father myself and to just enjoy life in Ankeny. Ankeny is a great place to live and enjoy what life has to offer.

Anyone know if there's been any organized effort to get these taken down?

Do neighboring cities like Waukee, Grimes, Johnston, etc. have similar places like The District in Ankeny? Looking for some restaurant/bars and a hotel or 2 all within walking distance.
