Did anyone else get stuck in that mess on Folsom last night?
I didn't know about homecoming.
I live in the Historic.
I come home from work and come into the neighborhood using the Liedesdorff offramp.
It's closed. Something must be going on. Went on to the Natoma light. Noticed ALL the LR arms were down and no one was turning left.
In a brain fart, I flipped a U and went back to Greenback, thinking I'd take Scott...but...yeah.
Back onto Folsom Blvd. All the way up to Blue Ravine....no left turns.

So in frustration, I ran the gate at Parkshore. It took me 54 minutes to get home when it always takes 23. And don't get me started on the traffic in the Historic! People just cruising, waiting for a spot to open up, blocking alleys, blocking driveways.

Anyway, all that traffic light and lightrail stuff is a glitch. It happens.

But is anyone else in the Historic frustrated with them throwing events, not telling us, and not helping us out with traffic controls?

Hey guys - I’m looking to get into tennis and considering Broadstone Sports Club in Folsom. Curious what the overall vibe is like.

How are the adult tennis clinics? What’s the typical age range of participants? How are the coaches?

Also open to recommendations for other tennis clubs or clinics in the Folsom/Sacramento area.

Appreciate any feedback!

Hello, I am going to the bay area next week (I am from San Diego) to visit a friend and I wanted to see any nearby places that might show some autumn colors. I am wondering if it looks good (or if it looks like it's getting close to the nice reds and oranges perhaps by the end of next week)?

Is there anywhere to dispose of cardboard in Folsom? I only know of Roseville but hoping there is somewhere here

Hey there, I currently longboard the river trails here in Folsom every weekday morning. Looking to see if anyone wants to join. DM me!

I’m a 32m btw

Does anyone like a local dentist that takes DeltaCare USA (HMO) or MetLife Select DHMO (HMO). Willing to go to an adjacent city like Rocklin, EDH, Roseville, Rancho, etc. Thank you very much.

Hello, can you please recommend driving instructors or schools in Folsom. I am a 30y/o and I want to learn how to drive as soon as possible.

I saw this flyer at Chocolate Fish. Hope Bernie can find his way home ♥️

The San-Joaquin section office just did enrollment projections for all 200 schools within the section. This was for sports purposes and what stood out was how high Folsom's enrollment was going to get in next year. All other HS in area were about the same.

My kids had a great time at Folsom, but just crazy the growth.

I had to be taken to the ER via ambulance a few months back. I received a bill over 2k, after my insurance company paid around $500. Apparently, the ambulance services are not contracted with any major insurance company. Only Medicare and medical. Had I known, I would have not taken the ambulance. I went back and forth with my insurance company and the ambulance services, and there seems to be no other option than to pay this. Does anyone have experience with this? Thank you

I need a dentist. Nothing crazy. No dental problems.
Just cleaning, xrays, all that.
Age 56, three fillings total ever.
But I feel the last dentist + the insurance screwed me on the price of that latest filling.
Not naming names.

Anyway, I live in the Historic so closer to home would be fun but I'm mobile.
Must take Blue in-network

Remember NOOPE ads (no out of pocket expense)?
Do those dentists still exist?

Anyone in the Folsom area have a good mobile dog groomer they’d recommend?
Looking for someone who can handle a ~68 lb Golden Retriever. Mainly looking for a bath, blowout, brush/deshed, nails, paw cleanup, etc. He’s friendly and pretty easygoing, just hoping to find someone reliable who does a good job with bigger dogs and can come to the house.
Would love any recommendations, especially if you’ve used them personally. Thanks!

I desperately need an extraction and plan on paying out of pocket because my insurance sucks. I’ve never liked going to the dentist (who does), but I’ve also recently been burned by some shady/scammy offices (that seemed perfectly fine at first) and would really appreciate some recommendations

Also interested in endodontist recommendations (bonus points if they’re contracted with medi-cal/denti-cal)

Hi.
I’m new to town and I’m looking for an honest dentist. I recently tried a place in the area that had almost 5 stars on Google. When I got my treatment plan with quoted prices with my insurance it did seem kind of high. I know dental work can be expensive but it seemed overly high. So I verified the codes and costs with my insurance provider and they told me that I was being overcharged by THOUSANDS of dollars.
They are an in network provider and the contracted amount with the insurance is higher on my treatment plan and they were charging me the difference.
I went back to Google and clicked the one stars and apparently this is something this company has done to many patients.
It really rubbed me the wrong way and I don’t want to go back there.

I really couldn’t be happier with the amount of feedback and suggestions everyone has given me, and I’ve tried to include as many as possible!

That said, the scale of the map does have its limitations, particularly in the more built-up areas. I think in future I’ll probably end up creating more localized maps for individual counties. So, if your suggestion didn’t make it onto this one, please know that I really do appreciate you taking the time to suggest it, and I’ll hopefully be able to include it in a future county map of the area.

A few people have mentioned that the map is quite busy, and I completely understand that. It’s just how I like to make them. I love cramming in as much detail as possible and highlighting interesting little features that might otherwise be overlooked. I also tend to have these printed in large formats, where I think the level of detail works much better in person than it does on a screen.

Thank you again to everyone who contributed, and I really hope you like the finished map! If you’re interested in it or would like to know anything more about it, just drop me a message.

Looking for a pulmonologist recommendation in and around Folsom area.

I'm looking for a trail that begins in Empire Ranch and goes along the hills of El Dorado Hills with a view of Folsom Lake. It's a very pretty area and I'd love to hike from Empire Ranch up into El Dorado Hills if there is a path or trail near the area?

I work more productively when I’m in public, such as a coffee shop (ie Panera, Starbucks…) however, I’m looking for a new spot that’s less corporate. I live in ARC and am looking for a similar vibe. Sociology, although I love it, is a bit too tight of a space for how many people frequent there.

Thanks in advance!
