I’m considering taking a job there but would be commuting from Yuma. If you’ve done it, how difficult is the drive? Is it manageable?

I've come and visit here for family since I was a kid. And now moved here to stay. Thought yuma has it good unique qualities. What is your theory to why yuma is so behind average progress.

Education, infrastructure, career opportunities, services, cultural enrichment/entertainment, etc.

I understand it's a small seasonal town, but there's other small towns that manage to grow and progress despite this.

My theory is total disregard for progress due to old-school conservative ideas, low education, and seasonal work not allowing the town to have all year-round habitation to keep revenue flowing year round evenly. There's other theories I have, but that's a few.

Is there a reason why people are so unreliable in Yuma? This has been my singular experience. Example: Lawncare service provider comes to home, gives an estimate and an appointment is set. The day comes and goes, service provider never shows much less calls or sends an email message. What is the point, after you've already put effort into setting an estimate. Do people not want to make money?

Are there any groomers in town that can clean a dog’s teeth as a part of their service?

i live in yuma but go to mex all the time, any good spots for laser hair removal? i dont speak spanish

probably gonna be a little long to read

Hey yumans, so within the next 2-4 months i plan on proposing to my girlfriend at a specific "scenic" park in yuma (not saying just incase i chose it and i dont want to leak it). It has a lake and it looks really pretty most times during the day.

--------

My plan in mind to propose was to take her out on a run early in the morning before the sun rose up and once it started to rise I would start the skit.

The skit I had in mine was this:

me and her are about to finish the run

The sun starts to rise

And I "accidentally" bump into someone

That someone will have a bag of some sort on them on the trail i am running on

inside the bag will be the ring I have with the case for it,
It'll obviously be sheltered and not damaged.

But that person that I bumped into will be part of this skit

I bump into them and they drop the bag.

I start a fake argument by saying "yo watch where you're walking"
And then they turn around and retaliate by saying the same thing
Will probably do a little bit of improv to make it look realistic

obviously my girlfriend will be worried about this, freaking out, whatever right.

But eventually I'll pick up the bag and run off with it (leaving my girlfriend behind), the person will be chasing me, we'll run off pretty far, and then I'll grab the ring case while I'm running

while we're running away the someone will take out their phone and start recording

I'll stop and turn around, drop the bag, pulling the ring out and pocketing it so my girlfriend cant see it.

ill run around them coming back to my girlfriend

they'll still chase me, recording me, as if they're really getting something stolen.

Once i make it back to my girlfriend. The person will say, "he's definitely going to jail I hope you know" this will obviously freak My girlfriend out a little bit more.

She will likely be asking me "why did I do that, what am I doing" obviously all the questions that weren't answered already. "I shouldn't have done that" etc.

But as the person is still recording, me and her will walk away while I'm secretly holding the ring case in my pocket or whatever bag I have at the time, and the person will be walking behind us.

i'll tell them to go away as if I never did anything trying to play it off, but they'll still follow me.

But as we're walking away I'll stop my girlfriend, i'll turn around, and in a angry voice I'll tell them "if you really want something to record, i got you."

They they'll say something along the lines of "What is it, I'm reporting it to the police anyways."

And obviously My girlfriend isn't gonna know what I'm doing, but as they keep recording that's when I'll finally propose, and it'll be a "HAHA i gotcha" moment.

she'll be confused, happy, the person recording will obviously bring character and start congratulating. etc etc, fun funny nerve racking skit, to happy joyful moment.

---

I have more specific ideas to add onto this but that's just the general idea of it.

--------------------

obviously it isn't very polished, I can make it more detailed when I have someone to volunteer for it, I'm even thinking about adding a second person in that will secretly be around and bring flowers as I'm proposing, maybe even have it around a crowd of people to make it more dramatic, you never know

But yeah it's a very rough draft of what I planned. If you have any ideas or even possibly want to help volunteer for this let me know in the comments.

im 21 by the way to throw it out there. shes 25.

(please don't give me advice on whether or not I should do it, only, if you want to help or even give me better ideas that would be even cooler, I appreciate all feedback and help regardless though)

I was curious if anyone knows of a reputable construction company that is willing to travel to Wellton.

I had a pipe burst in my park model home (manufactured home) while I was out of town and it damaged the subfloor in the kitchen, hallway and potentially part of the bathroom.

I contacted my insurance company but unknown yet if they’re going to cover the cost of the repair.

Mainly seeking an estimate to see how much this may cost.

Hey guys! I’m new to the area 21 F I’m not sure what to do or where to go. I don’t like bars all the much (coming from a place where bars are EVERYWHERE) but I do like a little chaos! I do ride, I own an R7 and a 2026 S1K! Just some ideas or even offers of friendship would be cool! I do game! Pretty open on multiple consoles 😋

I have a 06 Harley Sportster, I was thinking in October of taking a ride up to San Diego. I know it’s a long ride, what would my fellow riders advise I bring or do beforehand?

Saw this on Facebook, it’s about time.

Just like his buddy Swalwell.

Does anyone know how to build a sleeper pc or know anyone who sells them?

M 31 here

Just recently got a membership at PF. I have the Black Card Membership

Im new to gymming. If anyone is down to be a gym Bud lemme know

I can get you in if you dont have a membership. Would be chill to meet someone who wants to gym too.

Instead of our usual library spot, we'll be at the Fortuna Mini Mall event center (11411 S Fortuna Rd Ste 200, Yuma) starting at 2pm.

Same jam though: two hours of games, coaching, and playing around with a great group of people.

Never done improv before? Come anyway. Been doing it for years? Come anyway.

It's free, it's open to everyone, and all you need to bring is a willingness to say yes, and.

It’s so ridiculous that these places are nice and much more affordable but they don’t allow younger people/families to live there and they go untested for more than half a year when there’s so many people that need affordable housing that doesn’t absolutely suck😭

Part of me wants to go out one last time, but the other part of me says to stay in the A/C because it’s 105° and it’s hot as an oven.

I’m here in town visiting from Los Angeles. Desert heat is no joke!

I am an 18 year old male looking for friends, all genders I dont care. I'm looking for platonic relationships only. I like video games like Mortal Kombat, Zelda, and I've been playing a lot of Minecraft. I love vintage stuff such and some of my favorite shows are I Love Lucy and The Golden Girls. I listen to almost all kinds of music. DM me if you're interested!
