Absolute nightmare at the Smoky Hill USPS. I had a confirmed redelivery request, yet my package…read morenever showed. I made two attempts to pick up the package at the designated blue door area. Both days the clerk refused to provide assistance and both days she said service area was closed--even though the post office was open and customers were in queue!!! On the 2nd day, when I asked for assistance and clarification for why the pickup service (blue door) was closed--it was only 930am... the same clerk walked through the blue door (pick up area) and CLOSED THE DOOR IN MY FACE AND WALKED AWAY! No signs indicated package pickup was not open, no courtesy, just attitude. What should've been a 5‑minute pickup turned into over an hour in the general line. People have bad days. Holiday rush or not, this level of rudeness and disregard is disgusting and unacceptable. I hate even giving 1 star.

I love that this cafe does seasonal drinks too to mix it up. One of my favorite features is on the second floor they have a balcony with rocking chairs that has a view of the mountains in the distance. There is a great kids section with tons of books and tons for them to play. We came once on Thursday morning for story time too. For those working remote they have a phone booth for making private calls on the second floor near elevators. They've even got self checkout and electric car chargers!

If I could give - 5 STARS I would. I had an appointment made a month in advance. The gentleman that…read morewas suppose to help me out immediately had attitude as soon as I walked up to the service counter. They are supposed to be wearing name tags, he wasn't (shocker) he never gave his name. When I asked him not to give attitude to me he proceeded to throw my ID at me. This made me so angry. This guy honestly needs to lose his job, since you're so unhappy no one is forcing you to work there. This is twice that I've been to this dmv and they have treated me like this. This place needs to be shut down absolutely ridiculous and uncalled for. I've reported this worker! Older male with clear glasses. YOU'RE THERE TO PROVIDE A PUBLIC SERVICE!! DO BETTER!!!

My toddler loves the Storytime and Tots Tunes classes, and it's so nice to have some structured "class" time for the littles. It's also nice that they follow each class with play time so the mamas can have some time as well! The calendar of classes and events is posted online and now they allow online registration for their more popular classes that tend to fill up quickly. So much nicer than driving over only to find out there's no more room in a class! The children's library area is nice that it's separate, but could definitely use some updating and improvement. There's a staff desk that no one ever sits at on one side, and on the other side is a little area that they set up for play. Pre-pandemic there were a bunch of toys for the kids which have since been removed. There's also a huge hot air balloon in that area, but it is also just taking space as there are signs not to touch it or sit in it. Staff is nice and helpful at this location, and the building is very bright with lots of windows.

I very much enjoy visiting this Library when I'm in the area. It's very RARELY busy. The Parker…read moreLibrary has a little bit more foot traffic it seems. Here at the Aurora Library, there's plenty of parking in the lot. Signing up for a card was quick and easy. All I had to do was show my CO ID and a piece of mail with my name and current address to show that I was from Colorado. When visiting for the 1st time it may seem closed or under construction because of all the chain link fences. This is simply not so. The fences are there for the Police station sharing the other side of the building. Speaking of Fences , it's a beautifully written piece by August Wilson. One of my favorite authors. The history on how he wrote was so interesting to me when I was in College and took African American Literature studies. I recommend that title. The Library attendants are very helpful and will guide you to any section you might be looking for and they are very knowledgeable. I enjoyed that they were engaging and not passive. They have movies to check out too , some DVDs some BluRays. They have current titles which is great. They have music and audio cds to check out as well. I have been adding a few to my music library. However, the music is a bit outdated. Currently (Spring 2021) magazines cannot be checked out. There is a great perk of being a member of the library right now where they have curbside assistance. Sometimes they give away books, music , audio books and I got a great one that happened to be in my interest. That was cool, and I'll be back to this library for sure.

It's about 75 miles or a 90-minute drive from Denver (depending on traffic), but if you have the extra time and don't want to drive or park, you can take a Bustang $12 fare South Line https://www.ridebustang.com/south-line bus into Colorado Springs and from there catch the $2 fare #3 shuttle into Manitou https://coloradosprings.gov/sites/default/files/rt3_spweb2018.pdf.

I met the owner, David, when he was doing some work for a neighbor. The neighbor spoke highly of…read morethe experience and the result, so I called the company. And I called one other company for a second bid. David showed up in time for our appointment, and his explanation of the problem (80 year old mortar in our brick house was falling out). The previous owner had gotten some of it repaired. That mortar was failing, too. I was particularly concerned because one pillar that carries a heavy load was cracked so badly (see photo) that you could see daylight through it from top to bottom. David explained why it had failed, and how the repair work someone had done years ago made matters worse. His bid that was about the same price as the other firm, but his explanation -- and the bid itself -- were so clear that D. Masonry was my obvious choice. He provided me with proof of insurance, too, a request the other company ignored. They lived up to my high expectations. Watching them work, I realized that tuck pointing is a highly skilled craft, practically an art form. They took the time to mix and try a range of mortar colors. With their help, we selected the one they advised. Now that the new mortar has completely dried, I can see it is a perfect color match. The pillar I was so nervous about? They elaborately jacked up and stabilized things, so they could remove the pillar, which they disassembled completely, laying out all the bricks (with all the old mortar removed), so they could put them back exactly as they were, only sturdy now, and good as new. Masonry repairs -- done well -- simply disappear when the work is done, right? As long as I own this house, my gratitude for this job-well-done will live on.
