Growth in SM Part 2

Hello all!

About a month ago I asked everyone their take on how SM can improve. Plenty of amazing responses and I thank you all for voicing your concerns. I would like to follow up and see who is willing to make it a reality. This of course is a daunting task but with a city of 100k people I believe Santa Maria can change for the better.

A little bit about myself. After graduating high school I enlisted in the Air Force, after 6 years of service I decided to come back to SM to continue my education. By day I am a Political Science & History Major. By night im a photographer who likes to support local artists. In my travels I've seen that real change is done by people like us. 805Undocufund,Indivisible, and Gala Pride are great examples. I would love the opportunity to hear what all of you think.

Not about the current video, I’ve heard little things here and there I want to know about real parents & students experience.

Any idea what’s going on at In-N-Out?

There’s a bunch of cop cars blocking everything off for the past hour or so.

Thank you Salud Carbajal for supporting ICE and DHS!

Salud Carbajal voted to grant DHS and ICE more power. Why would he do this if he didn’t support them ?

Check it out here if you don’t believe me.

What a clown supporting this bill. A ‘Yes’ vote is a direct contraction of his beliefs from his own website here.

“The only way forward in solving our immigration crisis is through meaningful immigration reform, not through xenophobic and misguided polices that dehumanize our immigrant populations.”

Whoops guess he forgot about that.

Mattress on the freeway

To the dude in the blue Tacoma, tie your load down better… that shit was wild. Flew straight off. One strap. Wtf were you thinking?!

To the dude in the semi, thanks for running that thing over without missing a beat. Can’t believe it didn’t pop out and kill me lol. Was just to the left. Stay safe out there.

Furniture repair?

I'm looking for someone to repair an antique family child's rocking chair. The seat is split down the middle and a previous repair has Not held up. Anyone know a good person to go to?

Anyone who visited comic con early may. Do you know who the local Pokemon vendor is?

Asking because they have a card I want and I'm from out of town. The booth was right next to the front door on the left side as you walk in. Thank you.

Where to eat

Any recommendations appreciated in town for two days for a work trip I heard Santa Maria is famous for their tri-tip and it looks like there’s a lot of go to taco spots. Let me know. Thanks.

Page administrator has passed

Does anyone have any news about the admin for this page? He suddenly passed away and can't find anything about it. 😞

Anyone going to Burning Man this year?

I've only ever met about three other burners out of ~140,000 people in this valley, but every couple of years I like to check to see if any others have popped up.

I'm one of those people who's gone enough times that preparation is fairly routine; I just go down my 600-item packing list, spend 20-40 hours tearing down and rebuilding the art car and fixing up other projects and equipment that broke last time, and I'm ready to go. This year will be more involved because I'm fixing up a new-to-me trailer.

I've also got plenty of shop space to spare, and maybe even extra room to transport stuff between the flatbed truck and the new toy hauler, so if you've got some art project in mind you've been wanting to build but didn't have a place to do it, didn't have the right tools, or didn't have a way to get it there, hit me up. The ticket scarcity days are over, the Instagram influencers seem to be thinning out, and it's time to make it about weird art and dangerous things to climb on again.
