Melanated in Tucson

We can’t let the fall go by without making sure we really hang out outside!! It’s October, and you know what that means… SCARY SEASON! Let’s start it off right with a screening of “scream” ! I believe this is the original, but I really haven’t seen any of them so maybe yall are like me lol? Anyways, parking is free at Tyndall garage with validation from any participating merchant  and there is food all and shopping all along University. Sounds like a good time to me.

I’m thinking we can meet early at 6PM and grab seats together! I figure after that some may go and get food somewhere, etc. and come back, but at least we’ll have our seats.
(The actual screening will be held outdoors in the oLiv Courtyard at Main Gate Plaza, 943 E University Blvd (behind Bacio Italiano), near the corner of University Blvd. and Tyndall Ave.)

As a rare turn of events, you all are seeing me post a hike… a night hike! Looks like a cool Tucson experience so I thought I’d try it. Hopefully you all think so too!
According to the site, this hike is approximately 1.5hr. & “begins and ends with a short, steep hill with a slippery gravel from the parking lot, but is largely accessible for many different ages, from young children to the more mature” & “follows a one-mile loop through the towering saguaros and desert landscape, while learning from the ranger about the flora, fauna and geography of the park. Along the route, you’re likely to see desert dwellers up close, including scorpions, bats, night hawks, tarantulas and even javelinas.”
The only price for attendance is admission to the park ($10 entrance fee for vehicles with one occupant and $20 for vehicles with 2-4 occupants).
