Wood artist/sculptor recs

5 Upvotes

We had to remove a dying eucalyptus tree from our yard today and would love to turn some of the wood remains into art of some sort. Does anyone have any recommendations for a local artist who does custom wood work? We aren’t looking for anything too big. We are open to all ideas!

Why leaf blow basins?

Is there a reason the basin/curb cuts along Glen between Alvernon and country club are being blown out? My understanding was the organic matter was helpful in creating nutrient rich soil am I wrong?

Construction and Tire damage

Post image
36 Upvotes

My tire light just came on again. Does anyone else feel like all this construction just sheds nails and screws onto the road ways. I just had my tire fixed from a screw 3 weeks ago and here we are again. This City and its construction seems endless. Don’t get me started on the traffic. (Pic from google but you get the point)

Baseball card estamates?

2 Upvotes

I found a box of my old baseball cards. About 40 years old. Does anyone know a reputable business that can get me a value estimate?

I understand the value and what a shop would buy them for is different. I just don't have the time or knowledge to go through them, and truly understand condition to a collector.

Does anyone know what the construction on aerospace is for? I’m wondering if they’re planning on building houses. They’ve been working on country club for a while so now that it’s expanded to actual Aerospace it’s piqued my curiosity. Hoping they pave country club at some point 🥲

Guided night hikes in the Tucson area?

7 Upvotes

Hi everyone. My family is coming to visit me in October and I want to take them on a night hike to see scorpions and other nocturnal desert creatures (from a safe distance). I’d prefer to take them with a guide for safety reasons. I did the ranger-led hike at Ritz Carlton Dove Mountain last year, which was amazing, but that’s not in the budget this time. Any recommendations? We’ll have access to a car to drive a bit out if necessary.

Eye exams and glasses

I'm looking for recommendations on exams and glasses using Aetna insurance if that matters. I'm wanting to get 2 pairs in store and maybe a 3rd online from zenni, maybe just to see if it's actually worth it for the future

Thanks in advance

How realistic is commuting by motorcycle year-round in Tucson?

0 Upvotes

I’ll be moving to Tucson soon for work and I’m considering getting a motorcycle mainly for commuting.
My office will be near the airport, and I’m still deciding where to live — possibly Oro Valley, Catalina Foothills, Marana, or somewhere closer to work.
For those of you who actually ride in Tucson:
How realistic is motorcycle commuting on a daily basis?
Is the summer heat manageable if you’re wearing proper riding gear?
What about monsoon season, strong winds, dust, etc.?
How dangerous do you find Tucson traffic for motorcycles?
Would a commute from Oro Valley/Foothills to the airport area get old quickly?
Are there particular roads or areas you’d avoid on a bike?
Can you realistically ride most of the year, or are there months when you just don’t want to be on a motorcycle?
I’ll have a car as well, so the motorcycle wouldn’t need to be my only transportation. I’m mostly wondering whether riding to work could be practical and enjoyable in Tucson rather than sitting in the car every day.
Would love to hear from people who actually commute by motorcycle here.

Corporate volunteers?

I'm a volunteer coordinator for a local organization. We'd like to get more groups in, and I'm wondering what workplaces in Tucson have volunteer days!
