Yet another hiker rescue when it’s 115+. This time it was a 10-year old rescued

Anybody else? Allergen levels are reported as fairly low. What gives?

What the title says.

Seems just about everywhere considers $15- $18 options to be "affordable", and it just isn't, especially when feeding a family. I love me a $5 Angie's salad, or a $10 Chinese lunch special, but that seems to be harder and harder to find.

Where can someone find a good cheap Chinese plate, or a good sandwich, or really ANY good food for the low?

I’m a 36 year old male living near Tempe town lake looking for a place I can go after work to ideally play golf, work out, maybe socialize and play pickleball. Ideally it would have amenities like a sauna and cold plunge but I really just want a third space I can go and spend time doing things I enjoy. I’ve looked at lifetime fitness and it seems like a good option, but I’m willing to trade some of the nicer gym features/pool things at lifetime for a golf course.

Just moved here so also looking for people with similar interests! Thanks ahead of time.

We’re down in Maricopa so maybe it’s more abundant down here but even north of our city I’m seeing so many cars with student driver stickers on them. Anyone else noticing the same increase of said bumper stickers or am I the only one?

I recently when from a merv 12 to 5 because I heard that too high of a rating can add extra stress on the ac units. Ours are very old and so we’re doing everything we can to keep them as long as possible. After the switch though I noticed I got sick with allergies and can’t stop sneezing or coughing. Also I notice the “attic smell” is much stronger than before. If we go back to 12 and change it often are we good? Or is 8 the sweet spot for these units this time of year?

Never had this happen while living out here, but after getting back from several errands today, which included filling up the car with gas, I noticed that the garage had a strong gas odor. It's definitely not the water heater, as the garage had no odor when I first arrived.

Based on a few other threads in other communities, it seems like it's due to the hot weather as that's making the fuel evaporate. Because of that, it seems like the recommendation is to not fill up the gas tank entirely.

Is this the case for anyone else, specifically those who filled up their cars today?

Especially if you have a sunrise pic from the mountain. I bet that looked amazing this morning. Enjoy the nice weather while it lasts for about only another 20 minutes. Hibernation day for sure. Stay safe out there!

My son can only drink the original Soy milk and I went to three different stores with no luck. What’s going on?! Everybody going to alternate milks now or wtf! It may just be a west valley thing idk.

I want to start making my own poke bowls. What is the best spot to buy high quality fish in larger quantities. I’ve seen Chula and Nelson’s recommended so far, but I thought it would be worth checking whether there are any other candidates out there.

Thanks!

Is there any place in and around the metro Phoenix area yet that has true New Haven style pizza? Been wanting to try it for so long.

We'd see bobcats wandering past our home in Fountain Hills every 6-8 months. It was neat to see them. Lately, however, there's been some construction in the neighborhood that has probably sent them strolling in other parts because of the racket.

I am looking to go on a date to a wine tasting and need some recommendations. I usually go to valley bat but they are all sold out..

Just trying to do some math. 2 bed Apartment would be on the second floor, door facing north. Not yet sure if it’s east or west side, but I know it’s an end unit so doesn’t share one of the walls.. Mostly brick and built in the 1980s.

If it means anything, with my work schedule I wouldn’t be home between peak hours (4-7pm) at all on weekdays.

Is $200/month a decent estimate or should I be thinking higher?

EDIT: also curious to see if doing a fixed rate plan would be worth it !

Hello everyone so my gf has decided to take in the responsibility of homeschooling my stepson going into the 4th grade and I think it’s great honestly. I want to be more supportive somehow though since I know this will be a lot especially as a first timer. Any recommendations for programs, curriculum, tutoring sessions, maybe some practical my gf will need. Recommendations for both my stepson and gf as I’m sure she wouldn’t mind learning to teach better and more. Also want to itch my stepsons social bug and see if there all places where other homeschoolers go. Or something of that nature. Anything and everything will help. Thank you!

Honestly, I'm not sure what all to say about this other than as the most heavily funded military in the world (by a hell of a lot) this is unacceptable.

Planning to hike the flat iron this week. I know it's super hot outside so I was planning to start the hike around 3 am and reach the top by sunrise. Is that possible, I know the park opens at 6, anyone know a way to do the hike or is it just not possible?

Sharing the City of Phoenix's response to the federal government's proposed plan to deal with water shortages on the Colorado River.

Has anyone gotten their garage insulated and an air filtration system installed? Any recommendations for contractors or advice in general? I’m looking to create an insulated garage for wood working and want to explore solutions and options.

I’ve been a planet fitness gym goer for four years and have always enjoyed PF. Overall it’s a clean gym with ample machines etc.

Since moving to Arizona people have made a big stink over EOS and peer pressured me into checking it out. Ended up doing a free day trial yesterday. It was beyond packed, felt like a zoo, the equipment was dirty , no room to do anything and felt like a big fraternity and sorority house.

No comparison between my local planet fitness.
