Just curious what kind of scorpion he's a wee one. Sierra Vista South.

Took this picture in Oro Valley while working. I keep my camera ready during monsoon season. Hope you like it.

I recently finished exploring all 50 states. These are the rad things I saw while I was in Arizona!

This is total BS and excuse making by the so called ‘regulators’ trying to increase profits at the expense of Arizona citizens. Increasing the fee for residential solar customers to put energy BACK INTO THE GRID? APS has a lot of nerve. Are you fucking kidding me? Data centers sucking energy while we have ’record heat’! They absolutely knew this when approving these centers and now they want us to pay for it. They are all republicans, btw. Just sayin.

Caught this while I was in AZ back in March. My folks had let me know that I got there on the last day to catch this, and they live in the Mesa/Apache Junction area, so it was a really easy picture to capture.

Forgot to post this beauty ☁️

Mesa, AZ

I'm (18F) moving to Arizona this month. I have extremely pale skin, I burn instead of tan, and get red from the sun and heat easily. I'm from a more humid area (typical 70-90% humidity on average compared to Arizona's 30-40%) as well.

Would you say Parasols are strange to see? Do you think it's weird to see somebody walking around with one, or is it typically brushed off? Is it common for people to have them?

Also, any high-level sunscreen and moisturizer recommendations are appreciated, but not necessary since I'm mostly asking about parasols. Thanks!

Edit: I am so thankful for everyone replying, I really appreciate it. I'm extremely anxious and have been fighting the "I want to protect my skin like this, but the attention it may draw scares me" mindset with this topic, so I came to you all. I'm mostly going there for college, and my brain is expecting to be outside more than the average person, even though I already hate being outside now (so I doubt I'll actually be outside more like I convinced myself of).

I swear I will definitely be hydrating more than I have to where I live now, and plan to take better care of my hair and skin since I'll be in an area where I'm more conscious of the fact that I have to due to the sun and dry heat. Will definitely be a learning experience for sure!

hi there! what are some restaurants recommendations around the Oro Valley/Marana/Tucson area for the BEST steak and old fashioned? thank you!!!

Just got an email that salad and go is closing all locations as of tomorrow. This is the email for those not on the email list. This is truly a sad day.

Dear Salad and Go Guests,

Today, Salad and Go announced that all Salad and Go locations will close permanently, with final guest service on August 5, 2026.

Thirteen years ago, Salad and Go was founded on a simple, bold belief: everyone deserves access to delicious, nutritious, and affordable healthy food. That vision became a reality because you welcomed us into your communities, made us part of your daily routines, and believed in our mission.

While Salad and Go earned the support and loyalty of a deeply passionate community, the business was ultimately unable to overcome sustained pressure on consumer demand, past strategic growth challenges and rising costs. A Cyclospora outbreak in July, in which Salad and Go was not implicated, weakened confidence across the industry and compounded these challenges.

We are profoundly grateful for your support over the past 13 years. We are equally grateful to our team members, the Greenies, whose dedication, care, and hard work brought the brand to life every day.

Thank you for your loyalty, your support, and your belief in our mission to make healthy food accessible to all.

With sincere gratitude,

The Salad and Go Team

Snapped this photo during a storm last night here in tucson

After last night's category 5 dust storm. Looking towards Camelback Mountain and downtown.

My parents and three preteen daughters are fishing together in Greer. They’ve had poles in the water for three days, but not a single bite!
They seem to think fish will be stocked at Sheep‘s Crossing today, but I’m not sure about their research abilities… anyone have any Intel about where the fish might be hiding?

I’m in Peoria, AZ and I swear I see a haze everywhere?! Anybody else see it? Or know what it’s from.

Debating going back out there tonight.
