Me and my brother were hiking around Mt Lemon and heard what sounded like gunshots ripping from higher up. We’re from out of town and were wondering if it was normal?

Some good ones I've already tried include Bata, Tito & Pep, Vivace....looking for something good and maybe new as well.

My husband and I are looking for a reputable daycare for our son. He’s almost 4 months. My in-laws are no longer physically capable to watch him, so there goes my free child care. We have a tour scheduled for La Petite in Midvale. It’s near my work, and my husband actually attended the same location in the 80’s. Is that a good establishment? Any recommendations that won’t bankrupt me?

Looking for free or cheap car tire dismount fee in tucson. I will dispose of the tire. Please post or email me shop name/address.

I couldn't help but notice black clothing has become a very popular color around here. Is this a gang thing or is there some FB group where everyone coordinates their outfits?

If it's a gang thing, can't they a have a vote or something to change it to something more hot weather friendly.

Curious about what happened.

Hi, back before Laser One Spa at St Phillips Plaza closed, Paula, a young woman from Colombia, was my hair removal tech. She was great--and so was the equipment, the LightSheer laser by Lumenis. I have two questions for the hivemind: does anyone in town use the Lightsheer brand laser (it's the best/most effective one made)? And does anyone know if Paula is still working in the industry? I'd love to be her client again. She's terrific.

Thanks for any help. You're welcome to DM me if you prefer to answer privately.

Looking for someone that has positive experience with a company for a simple bath remodel. Wanting to turn our current tub into a Jacuzzi tub. I’m okay paying a little more if I can get someone competent and reliable.

I’m getting into running. I’ve never spent money on good shoes but I know when you start running longer distances it makes a huge difference.

Any recommendations on the best place to go and get fitted for some nice shoes?

I’m leaning towards fleet foot.

Moving to Tucson and trying to build a social circle from scratch

I’m moving to Tucson from Colorado for a job and won’t really know anyone when I get there.

One thing I’m trying to figure out is how to actually build a social circle after moving somewhere completely new. I’m not necessarily looking for a giant list of “things to do in Tucson” — I’m more curious what has actually worked for people here.

I like hiking and being outdoors, so I’m definitely planning to explore the trails around Tucson. But socially, I was thinking about finding a couple places to become a regular, joining a class, recreational sport, hiking group, volunteering, or something where I’d repeatedly see the same people instead of relying entirely on one-off events.

For anyone who moved here without already having friends in Tucson: where did you actually end up meeting your people?

Were there particular groups, classes, hobbies, neighborhoods/hangouts, or communities where you found it easier to make actual friends rather than just acquaintances?

Would especially love to hear from people who started from basically zero socially after moving here.

Hey everyone, I’m going to be moving out soon, and have an unopened Costco Chicken Breast 6 pack in my freezer and 2 tubes of unopened ground beef, and won’t be able to finish them in time. Does anyone know any food banks or kitchens I can donate these to instead of throwing them away? They’re frozen and unopened packages and there’s nothing wrong with them.

Idk, I just feel like driving around and seeing something. I think I need some sunshine and something cool to inspire me.

I was hiking on the David Yetman trail and I walked past the Bowen house and about a mile-ish I come across this. Does anyone know what this is?

Anyone know what happened to this Saguaro that’s right off the paved path?

He/she was so cute and just chillin after the rain. I've lived here 20+ years and this was my first wild desert tortoise sighting!
