AZ BS

Yup. Was dealing with a real crappy, and I'm guessing, fairly new insurance adjuster. He prolonged everything and cost them more money in the long run. He's since been replaced as of yesterday morning.

 

I hope so. The new adjuster seems much easier to work with.

 

Moving the Apache Trail run talk here and out of Jake’s build thread. Abby has a tournament 9/21-22 but a weekend in Sept or October would be good.

 

I don’t think the 88 is opening until the end of Sept though.

 

Yeah I didn’t get the feeling it’d be ready for while still. When ADOT says a month, I figure it’s 6+

 

Not to mention that trail will be a clusterfuck of idiots trying to check it out for the next 4 months after it opens

 

Well give us a recommendation where we can go that wont be a clusterfuck in late September, with the weather change?

 

I suggest week day trips. Soooo much less traffic on trails!

 

@TRDFerguson @BiggHertz or anyone else in the East Valley,

@Mrs. WBW and I are needing to replace the tint on our vehicles and would like to get nano ceramic. Do any of you have a recommendation for a good shop to use? Do you have any pointers or important info that we may find useful?

Thank you in advance.

 

I've had great luck with both

https://xpelscottsdale.com/ and https://cactustint.com/

Both offer XPEL Prime XR Plus (installed on the truck), but for my Lexus I wanted to try a different film "Prestige Spectra PhotoSync IRD" which has some additional rejection properties over the XPEL Prime XR Plus film and went to Cactus tint to give it a try. Overall pretty happy with both films.

 

Thank you!

 

When did the D-backs get good?!

 

Pretty much after the all-star break.

 

Nippin at the heels of the mighty Dodgers

 

End of season push, like usual.

 

I haven’t had any tint done in a while so can’t help out here, but sounds like Jason has you pointed in the right direction. I still need to get better tint put on mine so let us know your experience with wherever you go.

 

Have to admit - I didn’t see them leading the MLB in runs scored - that’s pretty crazy considering the payroll.

 

Exactly. I love when smaller format clubs can hang with the deep pockets

 

They definitely got the best of the Gurriel Moreno for Varsho trade with Toronto. The teams have gone in diverging directions since that trade.

 

Bear Down! That Fifita to McMillan connection is

 

Yeah the D is bad. As long as the offense puts up 60+ every game haha

 

Last time I was in AZ hiking around I noticed there was no small Saguaros, say 2-5 inches in height. That was 2014 and we stayed on BLM land for three months and it struck us there was no small Saguaros to replace the older giants. We hiked many miles around Phoenix and Tucson, saw a few 1-2 foot Saguaros.

We were thinking those nasty little invasive specie javelinas were feasting on the seedlings.

 

I know that, but why is it 10 years ago after hiking all over Saguaro territory we saw no little guys in the 2-5 inch range? Have you noticed any little guys in your adventures?

 

We lived in Mesa in the 90's and took them for granted, then snowbirding that winter 2014 and having not much to do on BLM land we hiked and we noticed there isn't any little guys. I'm no AZ expert but seems to me putting 1+1 together the invasive javelina coincides with Saguaro decline. I'd varmint hunt them, I doubt they add anything positive to AZ.
