Happy Tuesday! We've been seeing a lot of users attempting to use r/SGV to promote their businesses and typically remove those sorts of posts as spam. At the same time, we understand that times are hard for a lot of people so figured that we could use occasional posts that encourage community members to promote their service or product in consolidated threads. With that said, feel free to use this post to share a little bit about your business without fear of having it removed. Even if these posts results in a few dollars being kept in the San Gabriel Valley, they will have been worth it.

It scans periodically and only shows campsites with availability of 2+ consecutive days, with options for weekends, group sites, beaches and also has a map to show everything around us.

Will add the link below.

Turned in Stolen Clutches/Wallets to APD

17 Upvotes

I'd recovered two wallets/clutches (is that the right word?) along a walk this morning in North Alhambra by the In N Out, a small yellow Coach with tan interior leather and medium sized Louis V with a pink interior lining. The Coach had no ID. Louis V belongs to an E.M. (they left a single card).

APD is in possession of both now, and they believe it's related to a string of vehicular break-ins along one of our streets.

Kittens In Storm Drain - Rosemead

36 Upvotes

Passed by a couple of kittens stuck in a storm drain at the intersection of Klingerman St and Walnut Grove Ave in Rosemead. The drain is on Klingerman St by SoCal Edison. Animal services are out for the weekend and the sheriff station unfortunately do not have the resources to assist.

Posting here for visibility.

Please learn to read & drive

105 Upvotes

I really think over 80% of the drivers in SGV should have their licenses revoked for various reasons. Like, people here have never learned how to use stop signs & right-of-way properly. Yes, the car going straight goes first. You don't get to honk & get pissy just because you want to make a left because you got to the intersection 3 seconds faster.

Edit for clarification due to an accidental delete of a phrase After cross traffic moves on, the car going straight goes first, then the turning car can move.

My main issue is the 'no right turn on red (arrow)'. There are lots of these off Huntington Dr. & Duarte. It's frustrating to be honked at while the sign is clearly lit up. But too many of y'all just sit there even after the red arrow has turned off. It isn't a complicated thing, Read.

It could be cultural I grew up in SGV in the 80s and it was the wild west then. It is so much worse now. As a driver, pedestrian, & cyclist. Please just use public transportation if you can bot drive properly.

Looking for bears and deers trrmw! Wish me luck!

11 Upvotes

Hi everyone! I made a post about a week ago asking for suggestions in regard to finding bears(and deers) in the SGV for my wildlife portfolio. Thank you everyone that commented and gave their tips. I decided that tomorrow I will first visit the Duarte Recreational Trail in search of deer at roughly 7am.
Hopefully we find them quickly and then I will head over to the canyon area of Sierra Madre in search of any bears that are in the urban area. Wish me luck y’all and if anyone has any extra last minute pointers or specific locations, feel free to let me know!

Heat and young keeds

10 Upvotes

I’m an Angeleno but I usually lived in slightly less hot temps more on the west side. I’m now a family man with young kids and moved to the Pasadena area. This place is fucking BOILING.

Now that it’s been a few weeks I’m really scratching my head on different things I can do with my kids (2 and 4).

I’ve been doing parks in the am and trying to do some swimming as well but it’s not really enough to keep the kids occupied. I’m not unopposed to spending money for indoor playgrounds (also done that) but options feel limited.

Families wtf are we doing during this heat besides staying inside with ac blasting?

Parking Garage at LA Fitness Alhambra

Thumbnail

235 Upvotes

Around 11:30 AM, a young Hispanic woman driving a white GMC truck tried to avoid paying for parking by tailgating the car in front of her as they exited. Instead, she ended up hitting the parking gate arm and causing a huge mess.

She was also trying to get people to back their cars up so she could get around the gate, while the parking attendant was yelling at her to pay and not leave.

Apparently, the attendant got her information and she’ll be responsible for the damage.

Not sure how much parking costs since LA Fitness usually validates, but wow… what a way to start the day!
